Service was great, we didnt catch the girls name but she was quick and delightful. Food was also very good. We ordered salads, cheeses, and a noodle dish (with truffle). All amazing and well balanced. There is Outdoor seating and super clean and peaceful. I wish I had taken pictures. Will definitely be back. Edit: was just reading some of the responses of the owners to some 1-star reviews. I applaud you. I wish we could be this frank in California.

We had a great experience here! We stopped in while at an event and chose a table on the piazza. The service was great and the food wonderful. I had a dish of the day, tuna over a lemon cream my husband had the polpo from the menu. It was with a julienne of lightly sauteed vegetables and over a bit of potato puree. We recommend it if the menu still has it !

Went there for lunch. Antonio, our waiter was very nice and helpful. They specialized in dry aged local beef so we went for it. We went for a T-bone. Antonio brought the monster (1.2kg) to our table before grilling it. The meat is dry aged for 50 days and the result is delicious. What adds to the experience is the Piazza in Todi. Beautiful and quiet. A little pricey but worth it.
