Agriturismo San Martino

Nice evening in a beautiful location. Innovative dishes come together with more traditional ones. A nice option for a night out.

So a beautiful place in a historic building where you can see the sign of the time, from the XII century to modern times. Service: I can say I felt at home. Very nice food and wine selection.

A very nice experience in a lovely setting. There is something special about eating at an Agriturismo, you feel more connected to the food since many ingredients are local to their own gardens or certainly sourced nearby. Agriturismo even had their own wines to offer (I asked how many bottles they produce each year and was told it varies between 10,000 and 15,000 so it’s much more limited than the big-name vintners. We tried their Nebbiolo named “3” and thought it was superiori to a Nebbiolo from a more renowned cantina we had tried at lunch a couple of days earlier. The menu options were nicely varied — my mixed antipasto was sensational, with some battuta (raw beef), vitello tonnato, insalata russa and more. One of my companions (there were six of us) had the carpaccio of duck (raw and sliced thin) she said it was fantastic (it looked a bit like prosciutto but less fatty). For the first course my pasta, which was roasted along with potatoes and onions was excellent as well. The ox stew with polenta was really tasty and enjoyable. For dessert I got a type of panna cotta al caffè that was shaped almost in the shape of a bicycle tire, and topped with a sauce of passion fruit and served with meringue pieces. Quite a nice presentation.Speaking of presentation, all the plates themselves were beautiful unusual shapes — an interesting contrast to the traditional brick walls of the old farmhouse. The service was good and we enjoyed it quite a bit. Worth a drive into the countryside.

A discrete place that can be easily overlooked but once you enter into the courtyard you can enjoy its wonderful garden and flowers. We’ve had a delicious 3 course dinner with a plate of local cheeses and hams, homemade pasta and local meat, all accompanied by fantastic wine coming straight from the local vineyard of the same name. High quality place with good service. Much appreciated evening.

Delighted to return to this lovely restaurant. It's such a hidden gem. Menu has refreshed and the owners take great pride in it. Food is excellent - a notch above standard local food I find. The wine choices are well thought out. Highly recommend and always return when visiting the area.
