The verdict
Poderaccio Di Bolsena takes the lead
Poderaccio Di Bolsena scores 7,6/10, ahead of Il Pinzale (7,0) et Pbeach (5,9). In Bolsena, a restaurant with a lake view and panoramic pool, where the menu lists chianina, guanciale etrusco, lake fish and pici with pecorino. At €30 per person, the cooking remains honest but mixes regional dishes with generic classics such as carbonara.
