Location and staff very nice - food? Bland!
This place was not far from our holiday home. Nicely located right at Lago Di Bracciano. The place really has a comfy and relaxing feel about it.
We came with our dog and got an outside table. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We ordered the Antipasti plate, a bottle of White, tagliatelle alle rape rosse and another pasta dish with fish.
The Antipasti were really great. Some cold and some hot items. Some with meat, some veggies. Really well done with some good flavours and fresh products...a great choice. The local white wine was also nice.
Sadly the mains were a let-down. We had the tagliatelle alle rape rosse with pistachio and another pasta dish with fish. Both meals suffered of the same problem: They were just bland. The pasta was cooked fine, al dente as it should be and was fresh. As was the fish. But it still was lacking flavour. Salt, pepper...anything would have been a welcome addition. So all in all, especially looking back to our five weeks we spent in Italy, this meal was a bit of a disappointment. It has nice views, but so had our holiday home. It wasn't a bad meal....far from that. But also far from being great. Once was ok, but also enough. Maybe just for a bottle of wine and some antipasti.... read more
