Locanda Serpillo Just outside Bevagna in the tiny (and extremely charming) village of Torre del Colle is Serpillo. This is an absolutely idyllic setting, with outdoor tables set under the arches of the village walls and gate. If visiting during the Winter months, the interior is also beautifully designed. Superb quality food. Foligno Umami Popular with youngsters, this is a great place for a quick bite to eat, serving up a selection of panini and some delicious sweet treats. Cucinaa Open daily from 8 am to 9 pm (but closed on Sunday evenings), this is a combination of both an upmarket food shop and restaurant. Situated outside the main historic centre of Foligno, the concept is simple \u2013 it\u2019s a luxury takeaway \u2013 and it was set up by three prestigious Italian masterchefs. It\u2019s a great option for both breakfast and lunch and, if you don\u2019t fancy cooking in the evening, then you can buy something to take back to your Umbria villa rental and eat at home. Pescheria Mariani A typically Italian fish restaurant in Foligno. Villa Roncalli Owned by the incredible chef, Luisa, this restaurant is situated in the hotel of the same name. She uses the wonderful produce grown in her vegetable garden to create exquisite culinary dishes. Montefalco La Locanda del Teatro A wonderful restaurant run by Paolo out front and Pasqualino in the kitchen. Paolo is the perfect host, making every guest feel like they&#8217;re the most special person in his restaurant that night! The food is top notch, putting modern twists on traditional Umbrian fare. Book ahead and ask for a table outside on the charming terrace. Enoteca L\u2019Alchimista\u00a0 A restaurant and wine bar in Montefalco\u2019s main\u00a0Piazza del Comune, Enoteca L\u2019Achimista offers diners absolutely delicious Umbrian cuisine using only the highest quality local ingredients. Their wine list is also second to none. Olevm\u00a0 A delightful and welcoming restaurant serving up generous portions of Umbrian fare. They also produce their own amazing olive oil which we can highly recommend. Ristorante Il Coccorone\u00a0 A fine dining option, this restaurant offers traditional Umbrian fare in a beautiful, white table cloth setting.\u00a0Fantastic staff make can&#8217;t do enough to ensure you enjoy a wonderful dining experience. Paciano La Loggetta A great restaurant in this sleepy Umbrian village which serves up both authentic Tuscan and Umbrian cuisine. If visiting in the warmer months of the year, eat outside on the terrace and enjoy the impressive views over the rolling hills towards Lake Trasimeno. Oca Bruciata\u00a0 Another excellent restaurant choice in Paciano. Run by Chiara and her mother, it serves up fantastic pizzas and pasta dishes. Il Casale Situated a couple of kilometres outside the historic centre of Paciano, Il Casale is a family run restaurant serving top notch Umbrian food in the most picturesque of settings with views that look out over Lake Trasimeno. If you\u2019re visiting in the Winter months, then eat indoors instead in the warmth of the traditional open fire. Locanda Manfredi\u00a0 Simple but delicious homemade pasta dishes served either inside or on their picturesque terrace. Opt to eat here and you\u2019ll never be disappointed! Perugia Il Giurista This restaurant deserves its top spot on TripAdvisor, serving up delicious Umbrian food from the heart of historic Perugia. Impeccable food and outstanding service are assured here. La Forchetta Just outside Perugia in Ponte San Giovanni is La Forchetta. Owned and run by siblings, they change the menu frequently to reflect local ingredients that are in season. Spello Il Pinturicchio A traditional Italian restaurant, serving up excellent quality local food created by Mirko and his wife. It does have an outdoor terrace but it\u2019s small so if you want to sit outside, make sure you book ahead. We recommend trying the Tagliata di Manzo. Please note that it\u2019s closed on Sundays and Tuesdays. La Cantina di Spello Situated about halfway up the main street in Spello, La Cantina offers great quality food in a charming setting. Whilst the restaurant does have an outdoor terrace, we recommend dining inside at this establishment to make the most of the atmosphere. Osteria del Buchetto A small restaurant occupying a terrific position at the top of Spello and enjoying views of Assisi in the distance. Make sure to book a table on the terrace to make the most of the setting. The owner is incredibly friendly and, whilst he doesn\u2019t speak much English, we feel that this only adds to the authenticity of the restaurant. A small but perfectly formed
