Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Un ristorante immerso nella natura come solo uno potrebbe desiderare. Personale molto gentile, cibo buono che vale il prezzo. Se ti piace il dolce, sei nel posto giusto. Lo consigliamo. Non limitarti ad arrivare fino alla porta, fai un'escursione o una lunga passeggiata :allora il cibo sarà ancora più buono."
"Such a lovely restaurant, set in the national park. Delicious fresh food and a constantly changing menu (we ate there a few times). Everything was delicious but especially the gnocchi al ragu and the roast beef. They also have a great selection of cakes and I can highly recommend the fig and walnut. Fab selection of beers and lots of local produce available to buy."
"Ottimo il ristorante si mangia sempre bene dalla polenta alla tagliata personale sempre gentile e sorridente bar fornito di tutto diversi souvenirs e prodotti locali prezzi ottimi"
"Ottima sosta con cucina casalinga dopo un' escursione nel parco"
"Friendly staff, good English which was helpful. Local produce and yummy cake! Beautiful surroundings too"
"Esperienza unica in un ambiente fantastico e prezzi di altri tempi. C'è modo di fare il pranzo al sacco ma se non si ha voglia al bar risrostorante Orecchiella abbiamo preso un antipasto, due primi, tre contorno e quattro dolci per la modica cifra di 48 euro. Che piatti, dagli antipasti al dolce uno più buono dell'altro."
"The most amazing food you will taste, fresh gnocchi or ravioli, thinly sliced roast beef and delicious cakes. All served by the quickest waitress I have ever encountered! Honestly please come here it's totally worth the drive and there is parking right next to/behind the restaurant. After you can walk down to the natural water fountain- my mother who lives in the village said its the purest water in the region, so fill up your bottles! There is also a lovely garden with a stream and beautiful flowers, free to enter. You can then walk through the forest and see lovely views of the mountains before getting to the bear enclosure. Not a fan of seeing the bears in their spaces, please avoid paying to see them!"
"Da ripetere sicuramente. Giornata trascorsa in assoluto relax con la famiglia. Obbligatoria la visita al ristorante se devi visitare il parco natura...mangiato da dieci, cibo ottimo e vino eccellente di gradazione medio alta, gentilezza e servizio ottimo...che non è da tutti. Complimenti."
