    Amazing location and food. It feels so warm and inviting, and the menu is inviting and appropriate to the region

    Dream-like setting. Peaceful and beautiful setting amongst olive groves, lemon orchards and grape vineyards… all nestled in the comforting hills of this paradise on the Mediterranean

    The view and atmosphere was wonderful. There was a lot of out of the ordinary sea food on the menu. Not really our thing.

    What a lovely evening we had here. First the setting is beautiful, right in the middle of the vineyard. The food was delicious and fresh. The staff perfect. Even the chef came to the table. We meet wonderful people sitting near us and all enjoyed a great evening together. This is a most evening if you are in. Cinque Terre and an easy walk from Monterosso train station

    Superb setting and lovely wine. Very high prices which would normally demand impeccably trained staff and something really special from the food. In our opinion, the food was especially disappointing give the pricing. We have eaten equally well around the region but for significantly less cost.

    We absolutely loved our dinner at Buranco. The grilled Tuna appetizer was the best we’ve ever had anywhere. The wine was superb. But the ambiance of the ranch is truly spectacular and so well worth a visit. I highly recommend you check it out. One note: Apple Maps and TheFork have the pin at the wrong place on the map — far short of the entrance. Use Google maps to have confidence that continuing up a long cobblestone road is correct, which it is!

    The view and ambiance from the outdoor seating area was lovely which was good because it took about 40 minutes for someone to take our order and another 15 until we were served our wine. The food was well prepared but overpriced.

    Wonderful location up the hillside nestled amongst their own vineyard and olive grove. Lovely seating outdoors. Bring a jacket in case there is a late evening breeze. Food was outstanding and nicely presented. Their wine was exceptional as well as their olive oil and locally sourced bread. The seafood we ordered was delicious. The owners (maitre’d and chef) visited the tables and conversed with the patrons - lovely. My husband forgot to bring a jacket or sweater and the maitre’ d got her husband to loan one of his for the evening. Top drawer! The only knock was the wait staff was a little on the slow and unattentive side at times. Highly recommend.

    Beautiful restaurant! Hike to get to bit worth it! Monterosso appetizer and pulp were excellent! Fish of the day grilled perfectly. Only comment is no options to change what is exactly on the menu. Like if you wanted to add shrimp to your pasta no way! That just me but could be a little more flexible! Definitely recommend!!

    The atmosphere and food was absolutely amazing would 100% recommend! Family owned which added to the experience, but those working there that were not part of the family, terrible service. Felt completely ignored, not sure if because we had a discount or not Italian but completely unable to get any attention.

    While the hike to this restaurant is a little strenuous, the view and meal more than made up for this minimal discomfort. We had the anchovies for our appetizer followed by the risotto and then the piglet- all were spectacular. The chocolate flan was “molten lava like “ and ended our evening terrifically. We are so glad we chose this breathtaking winery to eat at.

    Beautiful spot but quite a climb to get there. Maps said “mildly uphill”, that is a lie. Service was fine. Prices are high, in my opinion. We had one bottle of water, one limoncello, one octopus appetizer (excellent) and two prawn risottos (edible but absolutely not risotto). Total was 108 Euros. Though the people are nice and the ambiance wonderful I wouldn’t go for their main course if our risotto is representative of their kitchen.

    Such a magical experience and perfect end to a day of hiking the cinque terre. The food was delicious but the atmosphere and the view really made this such a special place.

    Buranco Agiturismo is truly a special place. It’s a fmly owned business for 30 years. The organic wine, olive oil, lemonchello is divine. The farm is just as amazing as the menu. Try the anchovy dish sampler Monterosso style and it won’t disappointed. It can’t recommend this place enough.

    Best dining experience we have had in Italy! We walked up from the old town in Monterosso and were immediately enchanted by the lemon grove, vineyard, and gorgeous views. (If you walk, it is quite steep, so this is not the time for high heels.) After taking numerous photos of the scenery, we were greeted by our server, Bruno, who was knowledgeable, friendly, and so fun. He immediately became a friend! After a delicious start to our meal with the sardine appetizer (try it!), we were blown away by the award-winning lemon risotto. We savored each bite. WOW!! Each step of the way, our meal was paired with excellent wine from this small vineyard. (We ordered some to be shipped home. They also do wine tastings during the day.) To top off the evening, the owner/chef, Giovanni, serenaded us with a song! This was not just an amazing meal, but a truly incredible experience. We felt like part of the family and didn’t want to leave. Dont miss out on this tiny slice of heaven in Cinque Terre!

    I would not recommend, the price does not correlate to the service nor the food.

    Good morning, I'm sorry for this non-logical review, the menu is à la carte with prices for each course and you can choose freely. This is the first time our restaurant has had a review like this its just seeing to believing. In my opinion everything is in the wrong place here.

    If you are visiting Monterosso you must visit this restaurant and winery! The food was amazing and it’s family owned for more than 29 years

    An experience not to be missed if you are in the area for sure; recommending to arrive early, order some wine and then relax in the restaurant's garden amongst the vines before you sit for your meal. Bliss! The food is very very good and the staff is knowledgeable and clearly enjoy working there.

    Highlight of our trip so far. It was my first time having risotto and I keep on telling myself “what if I crave for this in the future?”. If you are looking for authentic Cinque Terre experience and want a relaxing time in the area, this is the place.

    This restaurant is beautiful, ambience is wonderful. I was able to talk with owners about their vineyard, was great. The staff very pleasant and knowledgeable about all wine/food on menu. Please book ahead, so you are able to enjoy this food&experience of this beautiful winery. Remember, wear good comfy shoes to walk to restaurant. You walk to beautiful hillside winery.

    The food was tasty, only the portions were too small for our liking. It is difficult to go to the restaurant it is located on a small hill, so people with mobility problems or the elderly should be aware of that.

    such a gorgeous place! 21 of us dined and it was a favorite of our trip for sure. hard to describe how you walk away from bustle of monterosso beach on a few quieter and charming streets, go up a bit and find yourself in their oasis. the people were as lovely as the views and a couple of sweet dogs wandered over to say hello.
