"I visited this restaurant as it had been highly recommended by friends who live in the area it is situated in a beautiful green spot infront of the irpinia countryside in the summer you can sit outside and eat on a beautiful terrace.. in the winter indoors is nice not flash or exaggeratedly country style, just clean, spacious and welcoming the waiters were very attentive and considering that we had not been there before, treated us like old clients there were three of us and all adults but we wanted to taste everything so decided to start with the house antipasto and we split it x i was more than enough and comprised a full plate of tomatoe bruschetta with local olive oil that was bought to the table and stayed for the whole meal there was a plate of cold cuts, salame, parma ham, pork cold cuts, ricotta, cheese, carpaccio of roast beef, mozzarella, grilled marinated vegetables, baked smoked mozzarella with porcini mushrooms, a bowl of chestnut, truffle, bean and porcini mushroom soup, broccoli and mashed potatoes, fried polenta sticks, all washed down with a great bottle of their house red. This was an antipasto for one person we ate it in for two people it is more than enough My husband ordered ricotta stuffed ravioli with grated black truffle sauce and it was covered with truffle delicious, my daughter and i ate sides made up of broccoli, escarole and green vegetables we had chilli olive oil and parmesan cheese was left at our table too. WE THEN WENT FOR THE STAR OF THE SHOW kilo of local mountain reared beef steak cooked rare and served on a red hot plack of black marble to finish the cooking process at the table it was smothered in wild rocked and porcini mushrooms and we were bought pink salt, black pepper and dressed the meat as we ate it with olive oil. We had a great side salad for one which again we ate in then we were offered deserts which where fantastic, liquors and coffees on the house. We opted for a savoury option of cheese see below. We paid a bill of just euros that is around euros each which is a great deal considering the cost of the wine we had one and a half bottles water and the porcini mushrooms and the truffles where so abundant, and the service was excellent usually this kind of meal would have costg around euros for we will return to eat pizza as the other guests started with a pizza and finished with the infamous kilo steaks the table next to us had two massive Tbone steaks and various other dishes this reatuarant specializes in just hand made pasta, great meats including local game- home grown vegetables and local cheese we TRIED AS A GRANDE FINALE local goats cheese and a speciality of my area, a local cows milk cheese called caccio cavallo which was presented with chestnut honey and pumpkin, onion and rosemary relish we just cannot thank the waiters and the chef enough as we really had a great meal and a great evening out. Cannot wait to return. Thanks so much again, Rita and Gennaro, Santo Stefano del Sole."

"la prima volta che ci sono andata l'ho scoperto per caso trovandomi in zona ma purtroppo non ci ho mangiato per i loro orari, la loro cucina infatti chiude alle 2, quindi massimo fino alll'1.30 si può entrare (consiglio davvero di prenotare visto che è quasi sempre pieno). in questo ristorante il cibo lo si cucina da soli, si invia l'ordine da un tablet e vi arriverà prima di tutto il pot con la/le zuppe che avete scelto dandogli tempo di scaldarsi, e poi il cibo crudo (non usate le bacchette per cuocerlo nel pot che vi cadrà ed è difficile poi ritrovarlo, usate i mestoli). la carte è veramente deliziosa, si paga tutto solo alla carta quindi state attenti anche alle porzioni di uno stesso cibo ma in quantità diverse, vi consiglio assolutamente le uova di quaglia (non ci si accorge quando sono cotte quindi contate una decina di secondi). avevo paura di sbagliare all'inizio, di bruciare e/o cuocere male il cibo ma è veramente facile, la carne al massimo cuoce in una ventina di secondi (a seconda di quanto si è riscaldato il pot), le patate sono le più lente a cuocersi, lasciatele nel pot libere anche per svariati minuti, ma non dimenticatele o si spezzeranno quando andrete a prenderle. al piano terra potrete benissimo alzarvi e prendere spezie e salse aggiuntive da un tavolo comune, in caso lo richiediate possono portarvene anche un tot a loro scelta al tavolo. non vi consiglio di prendere i noodle se non avete un grande appetito perché riempiono tanto."

"I visited the establishment on 12.11, the reservation was in the name of Markus on 19.15. I'll start with the bad: the disgusting behavior of the hostess girl. We were greeted with a terribly dissatisfied face; when asked if there was a restaurant here, we were very unpleasantly and disgustedly answered “yes, but did you make a reservation?” with a pretense, as if I were some random person who just wanted to be sent away after the answer: “no, I didn’t reserve,” but I had a reservation, so we were seated at the table. The whole process was accompanied by a terribly dissatisfied face of one of the hostesses, and talking down to me, as if she were my guest, and not I her. When we left, she lost my mother's hat, after which she claimed that she had nothing anywhere. After we asked to look again, because it definitely should be there, she replied: “Do you want to look in the closet yourself?” with aggression and complete disrespect. Despite her show off, we decided to look inside and, lo and behold, there was a hat. It was hanging on a different hanger, not where our jackets were. Her reaction to this was priceless: “Do you think I hung it there?” I don’t care if it’s you or your colleague, it is your work, and even if your college did it and you didn't find anything just apologize and that's it, how can you even talk like that while working in the service. As a result, no one apologized, she threw out a couple more passive aggressive phrases and smiled demonstrably. In general, she ruined the evening significantly; they left extremely dissatisfied with the restaurant. I would like to get an answer from the manager of the establishment regarding this situation; such people should not work in the service. The food was good, the waiters were incredibly pleasant and sweet, very attentive and courteous, and they provided incredibly good service. If it weren’t for this, we would have gone to sort things out regarding this situation on the spot, but we decided not to create problems for everyone during the work shift, purely because of the good work of the waiters. I'm waiting for a response from the manager regarding the current situation."
