La Taverna

Top choice in Perugia


La Taverna consistently wins the praise of local foodies. Brick vaults and candlelit tables create an intimate backdrop for Chef Claudio Brugolossi's seasonal dishes, from homemade ravioli with black truffles to a bevy of diverse secondi (expertly grilled steaks, lamb stew with flat bread, chicken curry), all paired with superb wines.
