We arrived in Santa Stefano on a Monday and upon looking for somewhere to eat were in for a bit of…read morea surprise when literally everyone BUT Salis was closed making Salis are only option. We arrived at the restaurant as soon as it opened to be informed that without a reservation we couldn't be seated (there was no option to reserve online and no working US phones between my sister and I that could call-out) Despite this, the staff was kind enough to allow us to be seated on the terrace and provided us blankets to use as it was very chilly the evening we went and they weren't even seating people on the terrace for dinner service. I guess you could say we were the black sheeps of their dinner service that night :) Our pasta course and main meat entree course were both absolutely delicious. We started with the maccheroncini pasta with lamb ragu and mushrooms that was out of this world. Then we moved on to veal cheek that was served with a carrot puree and some type of celery based cream. All of the flavors when combined in one bite perfectly accented the veal (which was cooked to a tender perfection.) For dessert, upon our waiter's recommendation, we had the pistachio lava cake with homemade lavender ice cream which unfortunately ended an otherwise delicious meal on a flat note. Our waiter said he felt it was the most underrated dessert on the menu but I feel it's just the most undesirable. The hot pistachio lava center was just TOO much pistachio for me and the lavender ice cream left something to be lacking. Unless you just REALLY love pistachio take a pass.

It is on the top of hill among many others in Valdobbiadene, there, we find plenty of vineyards, a…read morefarm house which is the home of few goats, they don't smell, no worries. Whatever their scattered handmade wooden benches, or the colorful iron-made chairs and tables, all are placed perfectly in the terrace, in the garden or on the hills, next to the well-grown vineyards. if you are in a mood of a glass of prosecco with a bite of local cheese and salami, just grab a bottle and a package of salami from the fridge; there are disposable forks and knives. It's free? No and yes...! A paper next to the fridge tells whatever you wish to leave at the vintage cashier, would be ok, just please cash only! my blog about this: https://www.gustobeats.com/weekend-itinerary-in-treviso/

Stunningly picturesque, this is a great place for photos to make all your friends stuck in the concrete jungles jealous of your time in Italy. There's a little house open below that has bread, cheese, salami and beverages for sale as well as left-behind business cards and regional information. Water is available free outside on tap. There are a few seats for groups to relax and eat. A little farther is a vending machine with local wine and glasses. Along the vineyard rows are standing bars for you to eat and rest your food and glasses on a flat piece of wood. There are also a few outdoor tables to sit and relax with groups as you head up the hill. We arrived early afternoon, but the views would be spectacular as sunset approaches.

Italy has so many amazing restaurants, and this is one those amazing spots. Their bean soup is…read moreincredible and their seasonal vegetables are always cooked just right. They have accommodated us with larger groups several times and done some delicious fixed menus. The outdoor area has plenty of space for children to run around and not disturb the guests. You can sit at the edge of the grapevines or under the protected roof line of the house. There's also seating inside, but I can't imagine being in there with all the incredible views outside. It's located in the hills near the mountains. They have farm animals that the kiddos can go see and great views in every direction.

Such a special restaurant that spans several generations. Monica, part of the Gigetto family made our visit so special. She even gave us a tour of her pride and joy --the amazing wine cellar. She manages inventory and organization of this huge collection. She was just darling and I felt privileged to get so much of her time. She also took us across the street to show us the newly purchased property they are doing big events at. To call our time there a "lunch" is a gross understatement! It was an experience.

You must eat all 3 courses (primo, secondo & dolce) and of course, ask for a sgrappino! By far the best I've ever had in all of Italy. Prices are fabulous as well.

It's a bit of a drive for us but WELL WORTH it!

Similar to the other reviewer, I recently stayed in Castelbrando for my destination wedding! I'll…read morewrite a full review separately for their wedding services, but the tl;dr is that the staff were amazing and really went above and beyond our expectations and my now-husband and I (and all our guests!) had a wonderful experience overall. Brunella and Carlo as leads worked very well with our wedding planner and the whole day went by very smoothly, even with pending rain and some last minute changes/requests. The stay at the hotel itself was so lovely as well. In summary - Pros: - Easy check-in process - able to park right up at the front (temporarily) and unload luggage - Friendly, helpful staff - most of them (all of the front desk and restaurant staff though) speak English - Great room (alcova) with lots of light and lots of space for the wedding party to get ready - Strong wifi in common areas, such as the reception area and lounge - Lots of options at breakfast - hot/cold drinks, continental food items, and hot food such as eggs and bacon - La Fucina restaurant, Donatello Bar, museums, and other areas are fun to explore and hang out in - 24h funicular (cable car) - Lovely spa amenities, easy to book Cons (ish): - The room wasn't fully cleaned until the last day - only the bed was made and the bathroom was cleaned, but the trash bag placed by the door wasn't removed - The room was right below Sansovino Restaurant and so there was lot of noise when tables/chairs were being moved, especially early in the morning - Wifi in the room wasn't usable unless standing next to the door or window - Gelateria was always closed I would give more than 5 stars if I could. I've already stayed at Castelbrando more than once when I was in the area, and I'm very much looking forward to staying here again! :)

The place is impressive, everything is nice from the hotel to the restaurants and the bars. Amazing people working there. There you can also find 2 restaurants : one gastro really good of course and one more informal with pizzas and italian food. I just tried to find something wrong but nothing is wrong here and you should come here once in your life. The place is so beautiful, quiet, romantic and magic. You have also museums, parcs, walking path, theatre and during the summer : ice cream bar. And did told you about the SPA? Well, just come and have a look, you will not be dissapointed.
