Farroteca Monterosso

First of all, we (a family group of 18 with children) ended up here at short notice. First miracle was that they accepted our reservation just two hours before dinner. When we arrived at the stunning location all four outside tables were set and we were welcomed by what I believe was the mother of the owner who explained that all (or at least most) are prepared with spelled (an old kind of wheat). They even had a lovely spelled beer! The second miracle was that the owner was the only one taking care of everything. She took the orders, served us and cooked!!!! I do not know if this was because of our late reservation or if this is business as usual but in any case she managed! (including the understandable delays). Although it was summer it was quite cold rapidly in the evening. Upon our request to move inside, the owner came back with a basket of blankets, which was nice an fun, but after a while longer it was really too cold to stay out, so we just took our plates an cutlery and moved inside in the nicely decorated and cozy dining room. I would most certainly come again, but probably just with my wife or at least a much smaller group

A lovely restaurant that serves a range of spelt based dishes, amongst others. Sitting outside is possible, unfortunately we were there during a thunderstorm (always nice to have a reason to go back). Service was friendly and the food excellent.

The food is all about farro (spelt). However, the restaurant serves a lot of different dishes with farro as ingredient. The people are very friendly and always around to have a little chat. We had bread, salad, soup, pasta (all with farro) and meat. The dessert was lovely and the wine great. If you´re around, make a reservation and enjoy the food in this restaurant. If you can sit outside, you´ll have a wonderful view of the valley.

Nice location, good food, the cut was a bit cold, service ok, prices in the average.

A special dinner in a unique place. protagonist the dishes of lard and meat, there is homemade pasta, the wine is organic and a lot of territoriality. very kind and present staff.
