The food was excellent. I ordered the pork dish with roasted potatoes. It was one of the best meals on our 5 week trip throughout Italy. Highly recommend.

The octopus was excellent. The location above the plaza was very nice, a bit quieter than below.

We are vegan, the waiter had zero interest in helping us select food the could be adapted. We made our own adaptations, he dumped our food on the table and we never saw him again. After about half an hour another waitress came by and actually was willing to help us with dessert and coffee.

We arrived earlier than we had booked (12:30 instead of 1:00 on a Sunday), and it wasn’t busy (yet) so they accommodated us without a problem. By the time we left around 1:30 it was quite packed. Greeter and wait staff were all friendly and new English quite well. My 16-yr-old son and I ordered 2 pizzas which were served very quickly - both were excellent, delicious and cooked to perfection - thin crust crispy (not burnt/crunchy) on the outside and a bit softer toward the middle. The number of pizza options were staggering - 4-6 pages worth. One pizza each was enough to fill both of us. My 16-year-old said “best pizza he’s ever had”. If your group needs variety, there’s much more than just pizza on the menu and we can’t speak for those options, but if the pizza is any indication of the quality ingredients and cooking mastery, you will not be disappointed.

Overall we had good impression, most of the dishes come very fast, but they didn’t come out in right order (starting foccacia came in the middle of eating main dish). Grilled octopus was great but arrived once others already fished their meal, it was worth to wait, but shouldn’t be like that. Rissoto had very fatty becon and kids didn’t want to eat it, even rissoto as such was good. Tagliata from chicken was the best dish on our table, foccacia also was good.

Thin crusty pizza, several options. Fast service (maybe too fast, a bit of more care for each customer would be nice), you feel a bit in a fast food scheme. Good and tasty pizza but nothing extraordinary.

While on a day trip to Assisi, I looked for a restaurant close to Piazza Comune. We were a group of 8 ladies and il Menestrella was a perfect fit.. No only was the setting very unique surrounded by ancient stone walls..there was even a room with glass floors so you could observe the Roman ruins below while dining!! The food choices were a good fit for our group - 2 needed gluten and lactose free items.. they had both available - gluten free bread & pasta and sauces with no cream or cheese. So everyone was able to order what they wanted.. The restrooms are also very nice & clean. Highly recommend this dining venue when you are in Assisi..

Their pizza was delicious. Great, generous caprese! Service came quick on first course but slow on an additional pizza we ordered. Super cool atmosphere with the ancient brick building. Bonus - she brought us olive oil for the bread.

The best food we’ve eaten in the entire week of travel. Ordered mixed radicchio salad, chicken with pear & honey was tasty, tender & moist. Had to try their pizza, ordered with shaved truffles on thin crust, excellent. The 1st restaurant that served balsamic vinegar & olive oil with their bread. Delicious, portions are good and reasonably prized. The ambience is very elegant. Highly recommend.
