L'Antica Locanda — Restaurant in Pacentro

Oh my God... Just the perfect meal out! My partner and I tried the 25€ fixed menu (endless antipasti, primo, dessert, water and wine) and we loved it so much that are going back tomorrow to try the bigger menu. Concetta the owner (and chef!) does basically everything from scratch, if you want, she guides you through everything you eat, explaining the source and the story of the dish. Food was incredible, good portions, everything homemade, she even has the wine made specifically for her. We left full and with a happy tummy... My partner was so impressed that he insisted to tip almost the double of the final receipt, as that's what he said it was fair given the quality of food and service.

The atmosphere is sophisticated, but not overdone... We went after a day skiing, tired and in our jumpers, and it was the best choice ever. If you go to Pacentro,...

From the moment my father, sister and I walked in to the restaurant, it felt like a complete oasis. We traveled 1.5 hours to Pacentro and were greeted warmly by the sweet owner, Concetta.

Not only was the atmosphere sophisticated and welcoming, Conchetta had great patience with us explaining each dish- which we could tell was made with such thoughtfulness and incredible love.

The amount of authenticity was truly felt in each dish. Everything was absolutely exquisite.

Not many places in the world exist, where the owner will tell you stories of her Nonna and Nonno and show you the objects (bottles and pasta making mechanism) in the restaurant that were used in her family.

Thank you so much for making us feel so welcomed. I am honored to have eaten here and I urge everyone to...

Exquisite dining experience. Owner and chef Concetta is a delight - warm and accommodating - in an intimate, romantic setting. While the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, Concetta misses no detail, from perfectly timed courses served on creative dinnerware, to background music that is spot on for the moment.

Dishes are made from scratch (including recipes from Nonna) and all ingredients are sourced from Pacentro its surroundings. Concetta is happy to share family history and carefully explain each dish and wine. Every single morsel of food was fantastic.

I cannot recommend highly enough for a special meal. If you are in the area, don't miss L'antica Locanda! (Reservations recommended on weekends and during summer...
