Trattoria Piazza Ansidei — Restaurant in Perugia

I read through a few of the negative reviews as we do and some bloke put a 2 star review which is simply silly! Obviously has absolutely no idea about Italian Tradition! Good food is not about receiving food on beautiful white plates with designer cutlery! It's the rustic places like this make Italy, Italy!

This place writes the menu daily, there for make everything fresh like Nonna does! Coming from 20 years of Pasta Manufacturing, I can safely say that these guys are the real deal. All the pasta we ate was perfect! I ate Pici in a Ragu sauce. My kids ate a traditional Rigatoni with Tomato Sauce and Pecorino Cheese. Very simple dishes made well is what you look for in a great dish! We stumbled across this place by accident and ended up being one of the best restaurants of our trip. Small intimate with only 6-7 tables. 20-22 people max. All the food is served with disposable plates and glasses. If your as stuck up little Gen Y or Z or Millennial or what every the hell you people identify as, don't come here. It's not for you. This is real Italian food and you should stick to the touristy places in the main square!👍🏽 Highly...

If only I had 1 euro for every time the waiter says “prego” I’d be the richest woman in Perugia. Authentic, non-pretentious restaurant in a nice little square just outside all the touristy chaos. Delicious lentils, generous portion of ricotta salata on my pasta, although my partner in culinary crime was not a fan of his dish (tasted too much like the cow it was made of). The very deep existential conversation we had about our future might have influenced the judgment of the dish…(he was on the verge of having a panic attack and couldn’t eat lol). All in all, would totally recommend, less talking more...

The menu is basic, changing regularly, that the host provides verbally. The dishes are good, satisfying in quality and quantity without going overboard in either direction. The menu, I’m guessing, tends to be rustic. The host is super positive and looks after everyone in an efficient order. There is, I can see, a solid local clientele, who come for a single quick dish before leaving. The restaurant is well warmed in winter (unlike some others remaining nameless). All considered the prices...
