"Driven by the positive reviews, I decided to go to try their kitchen. I never did. As soon as we enter we are greeted by a waiter who makes us sit in the garden. My home garden that was no longer neat and clean, there were Chinese solar lights hanging on the trees now broken and left as ornament of the plant and plastic tables randomly put, now discolored by the sun and the weather. Despite the bad impression we sit with the hope at least of eating something good, but it was not so. The waiter brings us the menus to let us decide the dishes to choose from. After a few seconds he returns to the table recommending the appetizer that we did not want to take. The same, however, insisted that we take one in two to train while waiting for the first. We therefore decide to take only one appetizer, to shake off the insistent waiter. After a while, the chef or owner who had the command advises us to try his super-quoted dishes. I take a plate of pasta with friarielli, anchovies of the cantabrico, raisins and crumbled tarallo, while my partner a plate of patri with the polyp. Second, the chef eliminates the fry I had chosen, telling me that he wanted me to try a fresh slice of swordfish in the Catalan, while my partner takes shrimps. Then we ask the waiter to tell us a few bottles of prosecco. The same mentions some bottles not present in the menu, and then strongly recommend a bottle of Franciacorta rosé. My partner and I decide to take the bottle of Franciacorta and to our request the waiter exclaims saying: here however, the asticella goes up. To this statement I ask him to be clearer with this statement and the same tells me that the price of the bottle was high. I was almost tempted to get up and go away, but we decide not to ruin our day by staying with the hope at least to eat well. The long-awaited appetizer arrives at the table. It consisted of marinated anchovies full of vinegar, an anemic sea salad, a savory smoked swordfish and other incommentable. My wife's pasta was good, as well as the prawns, but mine was inevitable. The pasta was cold, full of liquid with the taralli that were now soaked and the anchovies in the cantabric had never swim. The second then a real disappointment, a miserable slice of swordfish of the worst freezing, without flavor. Then in seeing the label of the prosecco we notice that it was not a Franciacorta, but a counter prosecco. We call the owner to point out that the bottle was not the one we requested and the same reported that it was definitely a distraction of the waiter. Delusi of everything we ask for the account that then turned out of 115,00 euros, very salty for what we ate. I strongly disagree. I will not return."

"I've been with my family for December 31. We booked with a few days beforehand. We were greeted at the entrance by the owner of the farm, immediately at the entrance of the restaurant room and made us road to our table. There was also the Orange Road musical complex that perfectly delighted the evening by making us arrive at midnight perfectly. Let's talk about what we ate. Appetizer: potato pancake with pork and cannellini cream, then two first: Lasagne with porcini and sausage first and Tonnarelli saffron and cheek then. Per second: Pork roasted capocollo with pears and plums, with oven potatoes. At midnight Zampone and lentils and to finish fried donuts with hot chocolate. The whole thing drowns a good red and white wine. We celebrated with a good Italian sparkling wine. All served in a very professional way by waiter and waitress very good, friendly and very polite. All the food was very good, and to be good at New Year's Eve, it means that it is normally even better. We've found out they're tools to feed celiacs. Price attached... For all these reasons we will definitely return. Try you too, you will not regret"
