€€Regional Cuisine, Country cooking
An expertly run family restaurant not far from the historic centre. Warm atmosphere in the two dining rooms (especially the one with the fireplace), where the daily specials are marked on a blackboard. A real gem of restaurant, which also has a few charming guestrooms furnished in fir and cherry wood.

Reviews generally praise the food quality, highlighting local specialties such as San Daniele ham, Asìno cheese, and rabbit ragù pasta. Service is frequently described as friendly, attentive, and warm, contributing to a welcoming family atmosphere. While the ambiance is cozy, some guests note that prices may seem high relative to portion sizes, and occasional dishes like buckwheat straccetti were criticized for being too dry. Despite isolated negative feedback regarding value and pacing, the restaurant maintains a strong average rating, reflecting consistent overall satisfaction among travelers.
Suitable for travelers seeking authentic Friuli regional flavors and a warm, family-style dining experience.

Situated on the ground floor of Spilimbergo’s beautiful medieval castle, this restaurant has equally beautiful interiors which welcome guests into a romantic atmosphere, steeped in history but accompanied by every contemporary comfort. For a really special dinner for two, we highly recommend booking the intimate alcove table. The cuisine is modern and beautifully presented with a special focus on meat, although the fish dishes are every bit as delicious.

Located within the Spilimbergo castle, La Torre specializes in regional and modern cuisine. Reviews highlight its refined atmosphere, scenic views, and high-quality food, particularly praising the rabbit, foie gras, and traditional interpretations. Service is generally described as warm and attentive. However, some guests noted issues such as cold reception, pacing problems, or specific errors like incorrect wedding menu details and undeclared clam shells. A few recent comments suggest a decline in service consistency or lackluster desserts. While the ambiance and main courses are highly regarded, attention to detail and service stability vary.
Ideal for diners seeking an elegant castle setting and authentic Friulian cuisine, with attention to service details recommended.
