Osteria i Birbi

We had a wonderful evening at "Osteria i Birbi," which boasted a charming, rustic ambiance that perfectly captured the spirit of the city. The service was excellent—our waiters were attentive, courteous, and very friendly. The menu featured a compelling selection of unique and sophisticated dishes as well as a great selection of delicious wines. To start, we chose the Zucchini Flower Tempura with ricotta, olives, and a buffalo mozzarella cream tomato sauce. For our primi courses, we selected the Tortelli stuffed with "Pappa al Pomodoro" and the Taglierini with black seasonal truffle. Our main course was an Argentinian sirloin cut with rosemary oil, served with a side of ratatouille. The tortelli and the steak were particular highlights. We finished with two desserts: the Bavarian cream with apricots, peach mousse, passion fruit, crumble, and traditional balsamic vinegar drops, and the Fruit compote with ricotta cheese foam, almonds, and cocoa grue. Unfortunately, these didn't quite live up to the rest of the meal. While the food was truly excellent, we felt the prices were somewhat high.

The place looks fantastic, however the food is average. Nothing stood out except the lamb chops. The pasta was not up to Italian standards that we tried in other places. Also the service was slow, and slightly inattentive.

It was an amazing experience, it was easy to make a reservation and they were super polite when we arrived. The pasta with Asparagus was incredible, also the pasta with Ragu! Totally recommend asking the waiter for advice on wine, they recommend the best depending on your taste and on what you ordered. I will go back 100%

I dined at this tavern with a tour group. The food is really good. Excelent quality and fast service. Saturday the place is full, so I recommend reservations.

Incredible food, amazing service and ambiance. One of my favorite restaurants in Perugia.

Wonderful evening of great food, wine and hospitality, a big thankyou to proprietor Luca and team for looking after us so well and for the amazing experience

Fabulous tasting plate. Wonderful food especially tortellini stuffed with chestnuts

Probably the best pasta in Perugia. A great cozy yet elegant restaurant with local dishes, excellent service and local wines. Must try!
