"We noticed that there were reviews just for the restaurant, (we stay at the hotel and eat here), so allow us to add our suggestions. This is an old fashioned place that attracts Italians who want genuine Umbrian cooking. Fresh vegetables, lake fish, roasted meats and most things you'd find in an Umbria cook book translated into English. The Hotel has an air conditioned dining room and a pleasant open air veranda where in the season, you can eat surrounded by pots of flowering plants. When their pizzeria, open each evening, gets crowded with local families, we like to dine on the veranda in the evening. What T/A readers may not know is that lunch is served 7 days a week in the season and it is cooked by Mama Gabriella, a fabulous cook. You can have a quick bite or a full blown meal. We rave about the lake fish (i filettti di persico) dipped in flour and fried in butter and sage leaves! Not to mention the lake fish pasta!! The freshest of mixed salads, vegetables picked from the garden that morning. If you are driving anywhere near the Torricella junction of the superstrada between Perugia and Castiglione del Lago stop for lunch or supper, Umbrian food at its best. The pizzeria is deservedly popular and has simpler dishes but they are happy to provide what you want to eat, so just ask."
