The verdict

Cantina Vèra Orvieto Eno Bistrot takes the lead

Cantina Vèra Orvieto Eno Bistrot scores 8,5/10, ahead of Capitano Del Popolo (8,0). Eno bistrot on a vicolo in the center of Orvieto: Umbrian local cuisine (supplì, mordazza, tortelli), Orvieto wines by the glass from €5 and a tasting menu at €55. Caveat: Umbrian roots, with Tuscan elements limited to a few wines.

Its weak point in this head-to-head: typicité locale (6,8). In Orvieto, coniglio all'orvietana, pappa al pomodoro and carciofi alla romana anchor the menu, but Angus Argentina and hamburger open it up to international tastes.

Tosco's word

The Toscane Cachée score of 8.5 for Cantina Vèra Orvieto Eno Bistrot against 8.0 for Capitano Del Popolo comes down mainly to the setting, ranked in the top 3% of the catalog, and a more pronounced typicity with its named Orvieto wines, even though its roots remain Umbrian. Capitano, cheaper at €25 versus €30, offers almost as good service (9.0) and handmade pasta, but its menu opens up to Argentine angus, which dilutes the local character. If you want a more refined atmosphere and a more local menu, go to Cantina Vèra; if your budget is tight and you prefer generous Italian cooking, Capitano Del Popolo is a solid choice, backed by its 3,294 reviews.
