Agriturismo Pituello

A small gem of a restaurant housed in an old farmhouse adorned with beautiful drapes and decorations. Although there’s a new chef here, the long family tradition of regional cuisine (mainly meat dishes and game) remains unchanged, with a large spit for roasting meat in the fireplace in the main dining room.

A small village just a few kilometres from Udine provides the backdrop for modern, regionally influenced cuisine with plenty of character. The renovated dining rooms have two distinct styles: the one near the entrance is friendly and relaxed; the other has a much more formal ambience. The large outdoor space is perfect for summer dining.

In the small, bespoke dining rooms – our favourite is the more traditional one, where the warmth of the fogolar fireplace and the crackling of the embers accompany the owner's interactions with guests – this charming stone and brick house, surrounded by a wooded park, tells the story of the local area through its aromas and flavours. Charcoal grilling is the beating heart of the kitchen, releasing intense aromas that waft through the air; the creamy, comforting risottos are surprisingly well-balanced, an excellent example being that with clams, saffron and courgette flowers. The experience is

A venue that welcomes warmly, thanks to a lively, family atmosphere. A lit fireplace fills the air with the scent of burning wood, while wooden furnishings and linen runners blend with background music to create a relaxing setting. At the table, authentic flavors: from Friulian frico with Montasio and potatoes to plum gnocchi cloaked in clarified butter and cinnamon, to succulent goose leg. Mediterranean forays also appear, such as the tuna tataki with anchovy sauce and bottarga. For those who wish, a carefully crafted vegan menu is also available.

In the heart of the historic center, this restaurant traces its roots to 1849 and intertwines its story with that of the Sabinot family, guardians of tradition since the 1960s. The interiors surprise with sober, contemporary design that dialogs with the memory of the place. Don’t be misled by the name: fish takes center stage, with iconic dishes such as the spaghetto enveloped in bottarga and clams, while seasonal vegetables add freshness and color. Those who prefer meat will also find thoughtfully crafted options.

Situated in a charming small town criss-crossed by canals, this restaurant serves traditionally inspired fish-based dishes. The restaurant stands on the port facing the fish market, so it’s no surprise that the fish served here is of the freshest quality.

A new generation is now at the helm in this warm and elegant restaurant decorated with a profusion of wood, adding a more modern touch to the cuisine while maintaining its regional character and excellent local ingredients. The menu has its own unique flavour thanks to the option of numerous cicchetti (tapas-style snacks) options available, either in half- or full portions, enabling guests to create their own menu.
