The Top 94 Places to Eat Near Degusto
-
A roomy, modern pizzeria just outside Umbertide's center, near the sports complex where parking is never a problem. The menu runs Neapolitan-style pies alongside appetizers, burgers, and a kids' menu, so it's built for a full table rather than a solo slice. The team moves quickly without making you feel rushed, which is harder than it sounds on a busy Friday.
-
Rank 2. Tipico Osteria dei Sensi
Umbrian
-
Three hundred and twenty hectares of Umbrian estate produce nearly everything on the plate at this countryside restaurant outside Gubbio. The game roams a wildlife reserve on the property; the cured meats are made in-house; the herbs come from the woods just outside. A seven-course tasting menu threads it all into something with a strong sense of place. The wine list is long, and the owner is happy to steer you through it.
-
Rank 4. Elementi
Umbrian
Perched on the hills between Perugia and Torgiano, this Michelin-starred restaurant inside Borgo Brufa works through a tight network of small Umbrian producers rather than showmanship. The chef builds menus that shift with the season and harvest, so what arrives at the table reads less like a greatest-hits tour of the region and more like a quiet argument about what it actually tastes like right now.
-
Rank 5. Ada
Modern Italian
-
Rank 6. Il Falconiere
Tuscan
The approach alone does some work: narrow lanes between dry-stone walls, fields stretching across the Baracchi estate, and then a Michelin-starred restaurant that pours wine grown just outside the window. It's an upscale Tuscan dining room with a firm sense of place, built around Chianina beef, pici, and herbs from the surrounding land. The olive oil on the table was likely pressed a few hundred metres away, which is either charming or makes you feel slightly underdressed.
-
Rank 7. Stella
Italian
-
A sushi restaurant in Perugia that also runs a traditional Japanese menu, and does both with the kind of unhurried seriousness you don't expect this far from the coast. The room is relaxed and welcoming, and the presentation is careful without being fussy. Prices sit above what the region usually asks, but the sourcing explains most of it. It landed at number eight on 50 Top Italy's sushi list, which for Umbria is a fairly extraordinary thing to be able to say.
-
Rank 9. La Bucaccia
Tuscan
-
Rank 10. L'Acquario
Umbrian
-
Rank 11. Il Giurista
Regional Italian
-
Rank 12. Da Luciano
Seafood
-
Rank 13. Il Molo
Italian
A family-run restaurant in Passignano's historic centre, right where the village pokes out into Lake Trasimeno, Il Molo has been around forever and leans hard into what the lake provides. Request a window table when you book and you'll eat fish pulled from the water you're looking at. The à la carte sits alongside tasting menus, and the kitchen moves between traditional Umbrian and something a little more contemporary without making a fuss about it.
-
Rank 14. Osteria del Posto
Umbrian
-
Rank 15. L'Officina
Italian
-
Rank 16. Locanda del Molino
Tuscan
-
Two brothers named their restaurant after their mother, which sets the tone before you've even sat down. Olimpia is a modern trattoria in a renovated old building in the hamlet of Brufa, where one brother runs the kitchen with a sure hand on Umbrian ingredients and the other manages the room with the kind of warmth that actually feels earned. The menu leans into vegetables in a region better known for meat, which is its own quiet statement.
-
Rank 18. Marghereat
Neapolitan Pizza
The margherita comes in three versions here, which tells you something about how seriously this Neapolitan pizza spot takes its namesake dish. The crust runs high and airy, the dough slow enough to sit well afterward. It's informal and relaxed, at the foot of Perugia's centro storico, with a warmth that doesn't feel performed. Across the street, a sister space called Marghereat Lab experiments with Roman-style pizza and small pan versions if you want to compare notes.
-
Rank 19. Quattro Sensi
Umbrian
-
Rank 20. Enoteca Meucci
Tuscan
-
Rank 21. Osteria del Teatro
Tuscan
A 16th-century dining room with a fireplace sets the tone at this Tuscan osteria in the hill town of Cortona, where the cooking stays close to local tradition and whatever the season is offering. Theatrical decor runs through every room, from the formal to the trattoria-style. A small terrace looks onto the pedestrian street, and the few tables out there go fast, so book ahead if eating outdoors matters to you.
-
Rank 22. Meunier
Pizza
The hook here is the pairing: pizza and Champagne, a combination that either sounds ridiculous or makes complete sense depending on your mood, and this Umbrian pizza restaurant makes a quiet case for the latter. The dough is airy and crackling at the crust, the toppings chosen with some restraint, and the room is spare and bright. It ranks on the 50 Top Pizza World list, and regulars also come for the holiday leavened goods and brioche meant for gelato.
-
On the outskirts of Perugia, this spacious pizzeria draws locals who come as much for the room as the round stuff. The menu runs from starters through traditional pies to the small pan-baked tegamino style, all made with sourced ingredients. Service moves at the kind of pace that doesn't make you feel processed. 50 Top Pizza lists it among Italy's excellent pizzerias, which in pizza terms is saying something.
-
Rank 24. Re Cornicione
Neapolitan Pizza
-
On the outskirts of Perugia, in a setting that looks more auto workshop than trattoria, this slice shop runs its dough through a long fermentation that keeps the crust light enough to eat at lunch without regretting it by two. The red bases are well-balanced, and the roasted potato and sausage slice is the one worth pointing at. Outdoor seating and easy parking make it a natural pit stop for the industrial-zone crowd who actually knows what they're doing.
-
Rank 26. Da Alighiero
Tuscan
-
Rank 27. La Gioconda
Marche Italian
-
Rank 28. La Locanda del Cardinale
Modern Italian
The dining room sits over the excavated remains of a Roman villa, which makes the bread service feel appropriately humble by comparison. This is a sit-down restaurant in central Assisi, split between straightforward Umbrian cooking and more considered modern plates. The wine cellar is serious enough to be a destination on its own, and the setting, ancient stone and all, does most of the interior decorating.
-
A small pizzeria near Perugia where the menu splits three ways: round pizza, pan pizza, or focaccia, so arguments at the table are structural rather than personal. The room is compact enough that a reservation is the sensible move, and the fried starters have their own following. Cocktails, wine, and beer all get serious treatment alongside the dough, which puts this a step past the usual slice-and-soda operation.
-
Rank 30. Benedikto
Modern Italian
-
Rank 31. Lillotatini
Umbrian
A terrace on a medieval piazza in a hilltop hamlet that barely registers on most maps, Lillotatini is a family-run trattoria serving Umbrian classics, freshwater fish, and truffles when the season allows. The family also runs a wine boutique steps away on the same square, and those bottles migrate onto the restaurant list, which gives the wine conversation a certain built-in authority.
-
-
Rank 33. I Rodella
Umbrian
A centuries-old stone complex on the road to Rome, now home to a quietly serious Umbrian restaurant run by three brothers, two in the kitchen and one steering the wine in the dining room. The cooking draws on local traditions with a Venetian thread woven through, the result of the family's roots. Herbs come from the garden out back, and the portions are the kind that make you revise your dessert plans.
-
A glazed veranda looks out over Tuscan vineyard rows at this Michelin-starred creative tasting-menu restaurant set within a working wine estate outside Montepulciano. The chef structures the menu as three distinct tasting journeys, each with a different lens on the same landscape and larder. Pairing sheep with oysters and endive is either quietly audacious or quietly obvious, depending on how the dish lands on you, which is probably the point.
-
Rank 35. Osteria Grande
Contemporary Italian
Tables overlooking Piazza Grande and the Loggia Vasariana set the scene at this contemporary Italian restaurant, where the kitchen leans into seasonal cooking with real technique. Pigeon appears in multiple cuts, each handled differently, paired with sweet onion and cocoa nibs. The front-of-house team knows the wine list deeply and will talk you through it at length, which, in Arezzo, is exactly the kind of evening you came for.
-
Rank 36. Le Chiavi d'Oro
Tuscan
-
Rank 37. Une
Umbrian
A seventeenth-century grain and olive oil mill in a hamlet so small and spring-fed that the old Umbrian word for water became the restaurant's name. This is a tasting-menu destination, one Michelin star, where the chef works almost entirely with produce grown within about twenty kilometers, then applies enough technique to make you stop mid-bite. The wine list leans natural, biodynamic, and small-production, which fits the room's unhurried, rural romance perfectly.
-
Rank 38. Serpillo
Contemporary Italian
-
Rank 39. Essenza
Traditional Italian
Picture windows framing the Umbrian hills flood the dining room with the kind of light that makes you want to linger. This is the restaurant inside Borghi dell'Eremo resort, where the kitchen leans into traditional Umbrian cooking and the estate raises its own rabbits, which end up in a ragù over saffron tagliatelle. Unhurried, landscape-forward, and probably not where you're going if you're in a rush to get somewhere else.
-
Barrel-vaulted ceilings and a terrace shaded enough to actually linger through a long lunch set the scene at this old-school Tuscan trattoria in central Chiusi. The kitchen digs into regional recipes that predate most cookbooks, turning them out with the kind of generous flavour that makes you suspect shortcuts were simply never invented here. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks.
-
Rank 41. Walter Redaelli
Tuscan
-
Rank 42. Ottavi Mare
Seafood
-
Rank 43. Il Grottino
Umbrian
The open barbecue grill is the focal point of this cozy trattoria in a medieval hilltop village between Foligno and Perugia. Umbrian truffles and hyper-local produce run through the menu, with meat doing most of the talking, cooked over live fire in full view of the room. Guests staying the night in one of the comfortable rooms wake up to the same unhurried pace the valley has apparently maintained for centuries.
-
A garden gazebo for summer candlelit dinners, and a hushed, few-table dining room that earns its advance booking in winter: I Salotti is a creative restaurant anchored to its own farm, so the menu moves with what the land is doing. The wine cellar, assembled over many years, runs to more than two thousand Italian labels. Chiusi is not exactly on everyone's Tuscan itinerary, which is rather the point.
-
Rank 45. Anticofurlo
Regional Italian
-
Rank 46. Indigeno
Tuscan
A restaurant inside the Salcheto Organic Winery, set in a farmhouse that has been quietly watching the hills around Montepulciano for centuries. The cooking is home-style Tuscan, grounded in the estate's own produce and small local suppliers, and guests sit at long shared Amiata oak tables that make the whole thing feel like a very civilized harvest lunch. In summer the outdoor tables open up, which makes the wine list feel less like an upsell and more like an obvious fact.
-
Rank 47. Camiano Piccolo
Umbrian
-
-
Rank 49. Da Nilo
Tuscan
-
Rank 50. Lupaia
Tuscan
A restored Tuscan hamlet perched between Montepulciano and Montefollonico, where the chef decides the menu each morning based on whatever the estate has produced. Dinner is al fresco in warm weather, and a glass of the sunset comes free. In cooler months the dining room looks straight into an open kitchen. The road to get there is genuinely pastoral, which is the point. Book ahead if you're not sleeping here, and don't expect a printed menu to study on the way.
-
Rank 51. Portanova
Contemporary Italian
-
Rank 52. Il Piastrino
Italian
Trout and eel instead of sea fish, aromatic herbs, and mushrooms pulled from the hills between Montefeltro and Tuscany: the kitchen here is deeply, specifically local. Il Piastrino is a Michelin-starred country restaurant in the small hill town of Pennabilli, where the cooking is creative but never restless, and the room has the kind of warmth that suggests the owners genuinely wanted to be here.
-
Rank 53. Fiorfiore
Modern Umbrian Italian
The olive oil on the table comes straight from the estate, which tells you something about how seriously this Umbrian restaurant takes its pantry. It sits in an elegant villa above Todi, with views that make lingering over a long lunch feel obligatory rather than indulgent. The menu stays rooted in regional tradition while nudging things into modern territory, and the wine list throws in a surprisingly serious champagne selection for a hilltop in Umbria.
-
Rank 54. Il Conte Matto
Tuscan
A 14th-century gamekeeper's cottage turned trattoria in the Tuscan hills, with a terrace that looks out over exactly the landscape you'd imagine. The Michelin Bib Gourmand goes to the chef's cooking, which is resolutely local: garden vegetables, nearby farmers, and the kind of seasonal Tuscan menu that doesn't need to explain itself. The cured ham plate alone will slow you down considerably.
-
Rank 55. Vecchia Napoli
Neapolitan Pizza
A wood-fired Neapolitan pizza spot tucked into a farmhouse off the kind of road you only know if someone told you. The setting is rustic and roomy, the atmosphere unpretentious, and the kitchen keeps the pizza straightforward and honest, the way tradition demands. Weekends fill up fast and the take-out orders never stop, which tells you what the locals think. The fried starters are worth ordering before the pizza arrives.
-
Rank 56. Osteria Zanchetti
Italian
-
Rank 57. Osteria del Borro
Tuscan
-
Rank 58. Contrada
Tuscan
An old Tuscan hamlet is an unfussy setting for a Michelin-starred fine dining room that takes meat seriously without making fish feel unwelcome. The menu runs both tasting and à la carte, and the kitchen's moves are quietly confident, the kind that pair duck breast with hosomaki without feeling the need to explain themselves. The sommelier runs the floor with the same composure, steering pairings rather than lecturing about them.
-
Rank 59. La Parolina
Italian
A Michelin-starred restaurant tucked into a residential corner of a tiny hilltop village, with a terrace that looks out over a valley so pastoral it barely seems real. The cooking is rooted in this particular patch of Lazio, country flavors sharpened by a light technical hand. The wine cellar runs deep, with bottles that have had time to think. Pigeon, when it appears on the menu, tends to be the thing people are still talking about on the drive home.
-
Rank 60. Da Gorini
Romagnolo Italian
A Michelin-starred restaurant in a small hill town in Romagna, where the kitchen leans hard on the grill: lamb, eel, and pigeon pick up smoke and char before anything fancier happens to them. The chef builds from local tradition, foraged mushrooms, game, and Mora Romagnolo suckling pig, then quietly pivots toward the unexpected. The kind of creative tasting-menu destination that gives you a reason to drive somewhere you'd otherwise only pass through.
-
Rank 61. Ristorante del Lago
Modern Italian
The drive up to Acquapartita, a mountain village at nearly 800 meters, is the first clue that this Michelin-starred restaurant takes commitment. The chef's cooking is rooted in Romagna's hills, mushrooms, trout, and game finding their way into modern plates with real conviction. The wine list runs to two volumes and nearly 1,600 labels, roughly 40 percent French, overseen with warmth by the chef's brother out front.
-
Rank 62. Poggio Rosso
Modern Mediterranean
Set inside a wine estate in the heart of Chianti, Poggio Rosso is a Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant where the menu nods to Tuscany without being enslaved by it. A Greek chef now runs the kitchen under Enrico Bartolini's direction, which keeps things interesting. Summer dinners move outdoors by the river. The wine list leans into the estate's own production, and the service is the kind that feels warm rather than performed.
-
Rank 63. Osteria Il Granaio
Tuscan
-
Rank 64. L'Asinello
Tuscan
A converted stable at the edge of a Chianti village, L'Asinello is a quiet, elegant restaurant run by a young couple who also tend the garden where you'll want to sit after dinner. The chef keeps the cooking spare and Tuscan, a few well-chosen ingredients doing more than a long menu ever could. The garden is his work too, which tells you something about his precision. It holds a Michelin star.
-
Rank 65. Daniela
Tuscan
Stone walls and a terrace looking out over the Tuscan hills make Daniela the natural endpoint of a wander through San Casciano's cobblestone lanes. It's a cozy trattoria on the main square, the kind that keeps things rooted in local tradition, with handmade pastas, wild boar pappardelle, and roasted rabbit alongside a wine list that stays mostly in Tuscany.
-
Rank 66. Silene
Tuscan
A one-Michelin-star restaurant tucked into a tiny village on the slopes of Monte Amiata, where the kitchen garden doubles as the menu and the chef's own olive oil from Seggiano finishes nearly everything. The cooking is deeply Tuscan, precise without being fussy, and the room is the kind of elegant-but-relaxed that makes you forget you drove an hour to get here. Bread arrives as a statement of intent.
-
Rank 67. Da Marchesi
Regional Italian
A roadside trattoria in the hills above Novafeltria, where the Apennines split Romagna from the Marche and the pasta is rolled by hand every morning. The kitchen follows the seasons and leans hard on local meat and whatever porcini the hills have given up lately. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand, which is their way of saying the food punches well above its price. Bring an appetite and no particular hurry.
-
Rank 68. Da Gregorio
Umbrian
-
Rank 69. Osteria dell'Accademia
Regional Italian
-
Guests are handed off to an aperitif in a cave-like rock room before the meal proper begins in dining rooms where open kitchens are framed like gallery paintings. This is a serious Umbrian fine-dining destination, set above a lake with a lawn that earns a moment before you go in. The menu hinges on a choice between lighter and longer tasting formats, or a structured à la carte pulled from two distinct sections of the kitchen's creative and classic repertoire.
-
Rank 71. Il Cedro
Tuscan
-
Rank 72. Trippini
Umbrian
-
A fireplace warms the main room of this old-school Tuscan trattoria in the stone village of San Quirico d'Orcia, with a pergola garden out back for warmer months. The cooking is rooted deep in the territory: hand-rolled pasta, truffle, meats and game, the kind of menu that doesn't need to explain itself. A wine list heavy on local labels keeps the whole thing honest.
-
Rank 74. Da Ciacco
Tuscan
-
Rank 75. Osteria L'Orciaia
Tuscan
-
-
-
Rank 78. Il Casolare dei Segreti
Regional Italian
-
A garden terrace with a front-row view of Orvieto's Duomo sets the scene at this modern Italian restaurant tucked into the old city. The chef works a seasonal menu built around regional ingredients, and the wine list leans into local Umbrian bottles with the kind of care that makes you order a second glass before you've decided on dessert. Unhurried and unshowy, it's a good argument for lingering over lunch.
-
-
Rank 81. La Cantinella
Tuscan
-
Rank 82. La Palomba
Umbrian
-
-
Montalcino is Brunello country, so a tavern with a wine list deep in old vintages fits right in. This is a rustic trattoria where the kitchen leans hard on Tuscan tradition, and the handmade pici with meat sauce is the kind of unpretentious dish that makes you wonder why anyone bothers with anything else. The Michelin Guide has given it a Bib Gourmand, which makes sense once the bread basket lands.
-
Rank 85. Cavallini
Seafood
-
Tucked into the forests of Casentino, this contemporary dining room opens onto the trees through floor-to-ceiling French doors, so lunch arrives with a side of absolute silence. The kitchen leans into its surroundings, building tasting menus from the kind of ingredients a city restaurant would call a sourcing story and a local one just calls Tuesday. The crowd runs to couples who drove a while to get here and don't mind at all.
-
Rank 87. Locanda Belvedere
Modern Italian
-
Rank 88. San Lorenzo
Seafood
Black truffles turn up with genuine generosity here, which tells you something about how this family-run restaurant in Spoleto's historic center operates. It sits inside the Clitunno hotel, but the mood is its own: an intimate, recently refurbished dining room with seasonal meat and fish, and a terrace on the small square for warmer nights. Park outside the restricted zone and walk in; the stroll through the old town is half the point.
-
Rank 89. Apollinare
Contemporary Italian
-
Claudio Alvicolo is a pizza restaurant tucked into Orvieto's old town, where the chef rotates through different doughs, flour blends, and cooking methods with the zeal of someone who has a lot of opinions about fermentation. Tray pizzas, pan varieties, and Roman-style cuts move through the room alongside a thoughtful beer and wine list built around pairings. A spot on 50 Top Pizza Italy suggests the obsession is pointing in the right direction.
-
Rank 91. La Bottega del 30
Tuscan
A French woman arrived in Chianti, fell in love with the food, and never left. That origin story explains the warm, slightly unusual energy of this rustic Tuscan restaurant tucked into a tiny hilltop village outside Castelnuovo Berardenga. Stone walls, old rural objects, and a room that feels genuinely lived-in frame a menu of traditional Sienese cooking, the kind where technique is unhurried and ingredients are handled with quiet, unfussy care.
-
-
Rank 93. Boccon DiVino
Tuscan
A restored farmhouse on the edge of Montalcino, with a glazed terrace that earns its keep even in winter. This is a Tuscan restaurant where the kitchen leans into the territory, peposo and onion soup alongside more contemporary plates, and the wine list tilts heavily toward local reds, Brunello especially, with older vintages getting their due. The service knows its bottles cold, which matters when the list runs that deep.
-
Rank 94. Casa Gasperoni
Romagna Italian
