Great way to finish our day & trip to Perugia. Beautiful restaurant, great service & excellent food. Everything we order was delicious. Also it is very affordable. We ordered a classic perugian appetizer, each (my husband and I) ordered a main course, a bottle of wine, a bottle of water and a complementary homemade chocolate after dinner spirit and the total was 70 euro. Also, the chef said hello to everyone in the restaurant, it was a full house on a Tuesday night, and for our surprise he used to work in the Dorado Beach Hotel in Puerto Rico, today is the Ritz Carlton Reserve. It is a must do when you come to Perugia.

We wandered down the nifty little pathway/staircase that leads to La Taverna and wound up having one of our best nights out in Italy. Despite it being a very busy night with the opening of Umbria Jazz Fest and the height of the dinner hour at 9 pm, we managed to land at an outdoor table with no reservations (still not quite sure how… I’d definitely recommend reservations in Perugia during the festival). Chef Claudio was making the rounds of the terrace and we wound up in a conversation about California where we live and where he has worked and lived. We told him what we liked to eat and drink and he ordered for us, including an *amazing* pork shank not on the menu that my lucky teenaged son got (I kept snagging bites until he started fending me off with his knife :) But our dishes (branzino and a local sausage) were also excellent. We also got a fabulous mixed antipasto and yummy chocolate thing for dessert. Everything was really great. Plus Chef Claudio ordered us an excellent bottle of wine similar to but much more affordable than the one we were thinking of and he even took our son back to see the kitchen. For some it might be an expensive meal (and you can definitely get good and cheap food in Italy, as we did many nights) But for us, given the quality and amount of dishes we had, the charming atmosphere and staff (and, yes, the prices we’re used to at home) it was really affordable. Excellent! Mille Grazie to Chef Claudio & his staff!

I don’t know how we found this place but I’m sure glad we did. Tucked into an almost inconceivable alley this is the home of one of the best restaurants I’ve ever visited. I loved every bite. I love the service. It was an absolute pleasure to meet the Chef. I highly recommend this restaurant. If you’re anywhere near Perugia make the effort to come here.

Very good, nice outdoor seating, fresh local procini specials were great. The € 12 fresh truffle ravioli had a generous shaving of extra truffles atop. Nice spot. € 55pp for 3 courses and a bottle of wine.

I thought this restaurant was good in many ways, but lacked in service and ambiance compared to other restaurants in Perugia where we dined. I’d give it 3 ½ stars. We chose to eat here since it was so highly rated, but our experience was not to that level. We are an American family and have been to Italy many times, and understand the culture/dining experience. The food was good and priced correctly and we particularly liked the house red wine. We felt ignored and neglected, however, taking over 2 hours for two courses. If you are in no hurry and enjoy the company of the people you are with, La Taverna may be a reasonable choice.

I have been to la taverna 3 times now. The first of which on valentines day last year when we were looking for our wedding venue and then every time we have been back since.
Every time the food has been exceptional, traditional italian food with modern twists and every dish we have had has been amazing. We even took my in laws who both work in the culinary trade and they were equally impressed.
If its a nice warm evening its great to sit outside but the inside is equally beautiful.
The service really makes the evening as well despite there being about 6 months between each visit the same english speaking waitress remembered us and was brilliant at translating and recommending dishes. Every time as well Claudio the head chef and owner has always come out and seen us as long with everyone there that night which is a really nice personal touch.
I couldn’t recommend highly enough i guarantee you wont be disappointed!!!
Cant wait to go for lunch next week a few days before our wedding day :)

INCREDIBILE! La Taverna is amazing! The décor, the staff, THE FOOD! Seriously do not miss this spot. Everything we had was a complete sensory experience, starting from the prosecco to the salad, to the pasta, to the lamb to the fish and then after dinner chocolate liquor. This is by far the best restaurant in Perugia. It is not to be missed. Everything is so fresh and delightful. I am told they even goes to the market every morning to select the fish. Seriously? It’s that fresh! Everything is that fresh. I know most people go to Italy and expect an amazing dining experience but this exceeds those expectations. I am of Italian descent and have lived in Italy for 3 years and it exceeded all of my experiences. If you are looking for truly exquisite dining at a very fair price, look no further. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING we had was amazing!

Yum! Yum, Yum, Yum! And whatever the Italian word for Yum is! Seriously, this restaurant has outstanding food and reasonable prices. On our visit in mid-September, 2013, we were sat outside during a lovely evening and immediately our server poured a glass of prosecco for each of us. We then ordered a liter of wine, and some of the most outstanding food I’ve had in Italy. If you’ve eaten in Italy you know that is a pretty high bar. The ravioli with black truffle shavings was certainly our favorite.
Chef/owner Claudio came out and greeted each table and struck up a lively and interesting conversation with us. We learned a lot about his background and his time spent as a chef in Orlando. Since one of our party was from Orlando they had much to talk about. He then graced us with a complimentary liter of wine in addition to the one we already had at the table. Some of the best table wine in Italy as well.
Post-dinner our server then served complimentary home-made chocolate liquer which was outstanding. Not the best I’ve ever had but darn close.
Fantastic food, ambiance, and service. Go! Multiple times! Like we did.

Une excellente adresse très gastronomique à Pérouse ! Cadre agréable, on peut manger dehors dans une petite ruelle, la salle intérieure est jolie également. Les pâtes aux truffes sont délicieuses, entre autres. Personnel pléthorique et aux petits soins, avec le chef qui vient saluer les clients, comme dans les très grands restaurants ! Au dessert, ils offrent une liqueur au chocolat très étonnante !
