A Hidden Gem in Umbria – A Culinary Delight!
We stumbled upon Ristorante Gregorio quite by accident while en route to Castello della Sala vineyard in Umbria, and what a fortunate detour it turned out to be! From the moment we arrived, we were treated to an unforgettable dining experience that was both authentic and full of heart.
The food was nothing short of exceptional. Every dish featured locally sourced ingredients—succulent wild boar, tender rabbit, perfectly cooked steak, and herbs fresh from their own garden, all brought together with their own olive oil. The flavours were bold, rustic, and true to the region.
A special mention must go to Davide, the sommelier, whose knowledge and passion for food and wine elevated the experience even further. His handwritten wine list was a charming touch, and his pairing suggestions were absolutely spot on. It’s rare to meet someone who delivers their recommendations with such genuine enthusiasm and depth.
We originally came for lunch, and were so impressed that we returned two days later for dinner—both times equally memorable. It’s not often you find a place that leaves such a lasting impression, and we’re so glad we found it by chance.
A well-deserved 5 🌟 from all of us. We’ll definitely be back when we return to Umbria next year. Grazie mille, Ristorante Gregorio!
