"Siamo state in questo ristorante sabato scorso e siamo rimasti piacevolmente colpiti. Il locale è molto bello ed ospitale, essendoci bel tempo, abbiamo pranzato all'aria aperta, con la compagnia degli uccellini e degli alberi che creano un'atmosfera tranquilla e piacevole. I piatti erano esteticamente molto belli, così come gli abbinamenti buoni, ma nulla di eccezionale. È come se gli mancasse qualcosa. Eccezione fatta per il gelato fatto in casa da loro e servito magnificamente. L'abbinamento con questa crema di frutti di bosco, davvero eccezionale. Secondo la mia opinione i piatti erano molto piccoli ed il rapporto qualità prezzo non dei migliori. Il servizio è stato molto veloce ed i camerieri molto cordiali e disponibili."

"This exquisite establishment was visited by us four friends, who have been exploring unique culinary establishments in Slovenia and the surrounding area every 2 3 months since 2012. Just a few meters from the city center, this restaurant is hidden in an ancient, historically protected house with charmingly arranged spaces and a magical inner courtyard, where they serve guests during the warm seasons. At this restaurant Cristina tells stories of Cividale and the Friuli Venetia Giuglia region through her gastronomic creations and wine. With her emotional intelligence and exceptional cuisine, she captivates guests. She has also managed to create a team equally dedicated to satisfying even the most demanding guests, much like herself. We chose one of the two recommended 4 course menus with wine pairings. During the welcome and introductory explanations, she even handed us a specially printed menu for the evening. The kitchen 's welcome consisted of excellent, delicately fried local vegetables served in elegant baskets. They paired it with a yet to be tasted glass of sparkling yellow Rebula wine, which welcomed us upon arrival. For the appetizer, they presented us with a special selection of San Daniele ham – Crudo di Bagatto, accompanied by corn flour grissini. It was exactly as advertised – exquisitely aromatic, tender, and almost sweet. We continued with excellent maltagliati – pasta for the poor, which had been enriched in the kitchen with truffle infused duck ragu. If it weren 't for the truffles, one could argue that a Friulian grandmother from 80 years ago had prepared them. Brilliant! For the main course, they served us their signature turnedo steaks with a sauce made from their house Refosco p.r. wine. They were exceptional, prepared flawlessly with a consistent texture across the entire cut, reminiscent of sous vide cooking at first glance, although, of course, they were prepared using traditional methods. The result was superb, with the sauce elegantly complementing this culinary masterpiece. The experienced hostess discreetly prepared us for the end with an excellent classic sorbet, which eased our decision between three of their desserts. We tried all of them and couldn 't decide on a winner. Competing for recognition were a cheesecake with forest berries, a charmingly presented meringue with a delightful pastry cream vanilla cream and fresh fruit, and a renowned local specialty – gubana and strucchi served with a mandatory glass of plum brandy. All three were excellent, and credit goes to their creators. The wine pairing was impeccable. There were no mistakes, as the family also owns the La buse dal lof – Wolf 's Den estate in not very distant Prepotto, producing excellent and somewhat unique wines. For the appetizer, they served their dry, fresh, straw yellow Friulano, continued with the indigenous, almost forgotten Schioppettino di Prepotto, and accompanied the main course with their excellent Refosco p.r. The service was excellent, led by a young lady who, in addition to her primary profession, mastered sommelier skills remarkably. The wine presentation was on a level rarely experienced by ordinary mortals. At the end, Cristina wrote a dedication and a thank you for the visit in one of our menus. The whole team signed it. We didn 't leave them indebted. This wasn 't just a dinner; it was an emotional theatre performance. And in terms of price: much more value than what they charged on our credit card. Visit them with all your senses and respect."

"housed, together with the homon cellars, in a beautiful and original hill structure, inserted in a beautiful setting, surrounded by rows of vines. Large parking spaces close to the property, allow you to leave the car, then reach the premises via a ramp of stairs. Large veranda surrounded by large windows, with views of the vines, and some tables located outdoors on the terrace; the interiors are simple but in their refined way. Prevalence of women of extreme kindness, who took great care of us, demonstrating attentive and professional. Welcome aperitif with a sparkling yellow ribolla, followed by a bottle of black Pinot of the Alturis winery. The menu has appeared rather narrow, focused on regional specialties; we chose toasted cacio and pepper to the “form of frant”, followed by a tartara with hot crostini and butter curls, lamb with polenta, and frico with polenta, with mixed salad and fried potatoes as contours. We didn't miss desserts: ingot with three chocolates with raspberries sauce, lemon sorbet, “Birrami-su” (biscot, coffee, mascarpone cream, to remember that alturis also produces an excellent craft beer). Expectations not completely satisfied."

"We stayed at this place one night during Christmas parties. is located on the main road that leads from cyvidale to the valleys of the native, although it is not visible first because it is located in a court, second because right next to there is another local (from vincenzo) that deceives. The environment is really very pleasant, well-kept, with a touch of Friulian tradition that is appreciable, even if it does not remember a straw at all. We have taken lasagna to mushrooms (optimum), a frico of pores and potatoes (bodied, often, grease, as it is right) and vinegar salami. All very good. prices are not cheap, or better: they are not prices from waste (drinking water or soft drinks we spent euro per head)."
