The often recommended restaurant is worth it. The food was very fresh and authentic; ambiance and service were lovely. A bit expensive, though.

Found this place in the Rough Guide.

I started with a fantastic salad with fresh baby arugala, apples, pecorino and pomegranate seeds. Ken had a farro soup which was so hearty it filled him up immediately. We shared the local pasta "chitara" with wild boar sauce. I had a simple chicken with red peppers and Ken had a very rich and delicous dish of small chunks of lamb, artichokes and saffron sauce. The whole meal was very satisfying but really, only the salad thrilled me.

With half liter of house red, the bill was 55 euro.
