Siamo stati in visita a Calcata e visto che non avevamo prenotato ci è risultato impossibile mangiare in paese e quindi ci siamo spostati qui. Erano le 2.30 e la signora è stata inizialmente restia ma poi si è mossa a compassione e ci ha fatto mangiare!Il locale è di per se anonimo nel senso della location e arredamento ma la cucina, pur con un menu ristretto, è veramente buona casereccia e genuina. Ottime la tagliatelle ai porcini come lâabbacchio tenerissimo e senza il persistente sapore di selvatico che spesso accompagna questa carneUn antipasto in due, un primo, un secondo con contorno, mezzo vino, acqua due caffè e un amaro 20⬠a persona. Conto giusto per un pranzo assolutamente in linea con le atteseGrazie ancora alla signora per la cortesia ci rivedremo presto!

Cruscioff's is an oddity: styled after Irish pubs, decorated with historic German prints, named after a Soviet ruler, it serves delicious regional italian specialities and beers from all across Europe (including seasonal, small batch and organic). My friends and I love it.A small dining room, secluded from the main bar area, is the best spot for a happy night out with friends or a cosy dinner, particularly if you're not football- or karaoke- mad.Try the bruschetta with Lardo di Colonnata: it is rich, creamy and meltingly delicious.Lots of old standards you'll find in casual restaurants, like fritto misto,olive ascolane, etc., but here they are well-prepared and particularly tasty. Good, properly aged steaks.The laid-back, wonderfully friendly staff make you feel at home. It's a family-operated place and they seem to care a great deal about their business and their customers.Sant'Oreste is certainly worth a day trip from Rome (50 km North-West of Rome, along Via Tiberina - or take the A1 motorway for ease). The landscape of the Sabina and the Tiber Valley varies from rolling hills covered in olive groves, to nature reserves -populated with wild boar, porcupines and pheasant- to tiny medieval villages perched on Appennine mountainsides.If culture, nature and historic architecture aren't enough of a draw, there's the Soratte Outlet Mall at the foot of the mountain.Then off to Cruscioff's for a good dinner. Although the views from the outdoor tables in summer are beautiful and sweeping, there is something to be said for the cosiness and warmth of the place in winter.

Di passaggio per la piazza antistante alla struttura, mi sono soffermato a degustare un caffè al ginseng ed il mio collega uno normale.Entrambi abbiamo espresso giudizi positivi sulla qualità di tali bevande.Abbiamo anche provato ad assaggiare i dolci alla marmellata con semi di zucca, molto buoni anche loro.Consigliato anche per degustazioni nel dehor esterno coperto, specialmente in una giornata invernale con il sole... :-))

2. Romy lounge Bar
Reviewed By kpontar1
I have been to Romy bar a few times with my colleagues from work, and overall the place isn't too bad. Yes, it's shiny, plastic, and tacky inside, but what more could you expect for Civita Castellana? The bar staff are always friendly and the drinks aren't too expensive! I don't really know why this is listed under "restaurant" though, since they don't serve dinner here. Actually, unlike some other places in Civita, Romy doesn't even give proper sandwiches or bruschette during aperitivo- instead, they give packaged peanuts and chips (crisps). I will continue coming here because it's one of the only places in town where you can see people out at night, but it really isn't somewhere I would bring my family or friends if they visited Civita Castellana. Plus, it's located in the dreadful new part of town...

We have had a holiday home nearby Civita Castellana for 13 yrs, but only recently have we realised that the town has a nice little local scene for casual evening eating & drinking. We popped in to Il Visio on a quiet early Friday evening, based entirely on the TA reviews - having walked by it many times by day (when it is closed) without ever noticing it was there.Thank you, Trip Advisor. The bar is quite small: there are a couple of large, comfy booths (for 4 to 6 people) on a slightly raised platform, facing the small bar area. There is a second room slightly off to the left, visible from the main area. I didn't go in there, but it looked nicely decorated (maintaining the theme from the main bar, with portraits of rock stars hanging everywhere) and had several tables.Back to those vices (Il vizio). The drinks menu has a good selection of local and international beers, but sitting to the side of the entrance is a big fridge, packed full of more interesting stuff that is y on the menu - a lot of Bavarian and Belgian beers, some of which I had never encountered before (and I have travelled a fair bit in both countries). Belgian Lambic beers in particular were well represented, but I plumped for a 0.5L bottle of a Bavarian beer I had never seen before ... and which I have already forgotten the name of, the morning after! All I remember is that it was made in Freisling (which is where the Wienstephaner abbey is, just outside Munich) and the bottle had a date around 1170 or so for when the brewery was founded. It was quite different from the usual Paulaner/Wienstephan/Hofbrau etc. - more complex flavour, I will definitely have to return and refresh both my memory & my taste buds!Anyway, the food menu was fairly brief, and very much bar food (burgers/hot dogs etc.) orientated. There are two basic burgers on offer: 100g beef, or 200g black Angus. Being a hungry Scotsman, I plumped for the latter :) The menu has the basic burgers (priced pretty well at 4.5â¬/6.5⬠respectively, with fries at an extra charge) but what I really appreciated was that there was an exhaustive pick 'n' mix list of add-ons, with 3 sections, covering sauces/relishes, salad ingredients and cheeses, and you can choose all/any combo you wish at no extra cost. Simple, but very pleasing for control freaks! I added a harrissa (spicy north African tomato based) sauce, lettuce, and cheddar cheese to my order, the wife had tomato sauce, lettuce, tomato, and we shared a portion of fries.We had already eaten some smoked carpaccio of Angus beef (washed down with Birra di Borgia golden ale, yum) in the lovely 'Stappo' bar round the corner, so we didn't order any starters. No matter, our very genial barman/waiter (who subsequently turned out to be the owner) brought us out a plate of appetisers anyway. A nice touch, made better by him sussing out (from our burger orders) that my wife didn't eat cheese. So, I got 4 little mouth sized triangular cheese & ham sandwiches, with breadcrumb coating, deep fried (a really great snack to go with the beer) and the wife got two little mini-croissants filled with prosciutto crudo to go with her Orvieto white wine. The burgers then arrived in due course. Quite thin patties for the 200g of meat, so therefore quite large in diameter, with a big bun made to match. On first sight, the meat looked very 'mechanically' shaped, so I wonder if they are bought in pre-formed . I didn't ask, as it doesn't really mayter, as long as they taste good - which they really did. We weren't asked how we wanted them cooked, but both came nicely medium rare, and very tasty. I loved the soft buns, too - not a huge amount of bread (given the size), they squashed down nicely in the hand, and served as a nice holder for the meat without being stodgy or heavy.If you like a bit of spice/tang on your burger, I heartily recommend the harrissa option - it was truly delicious, and applied carefully to the bottom of the bun under the meat so that you got it as an warm het buzz on the aftertaste - rather than it hitting your palette straight away as you bit into the burger. Also, not squirted on willy nilly, but carefully spread in a light even coating, as a hot dressing should be. All little details, but they all count. The fries were standard stuff, but a healthy portion and crisp & dry.So, the beer is great (I haven't even mentioned the brews on tap, Afflingem red, a Dutch blanche, and a couple of other nice options I have now forgotten), the service is great, the food is great. I thought that was enough - til my gaze rested on the shelves to the right of the bar, where lo and behold, a fine array of single malt whiskies was on display (about 12 different single malts, mainly island ones like Ardbeg, Laphroaig etc. but also an Oban 14, glenfiddich etc.). I expressed my surprise and delight to our host, who is himself a whisky enthusiast. He demanded that I have a free try at an Irish whiskey (conemarra) which I happily did - nice and peaty, and very Scottish tasting!! And he then invited myself and my wife to each have a free Scottish dram of our own choosing. So, we had an Oban & a Laphroaig, having by this time relocated to the bar stools from the booth where we'd eaten, and we had a long chat with him about his love of beer, whisk(e)y and celtic culture/travel. I was quite frankly embarrassed (but delighted) by his generosity ... I really don't expect to be treated to free premium spirits having consumed just a beer and a burger on my 1st visit to a place. So, I offered to buy him a whisky back - this is required Scottish drinking protocol - but he politely declined, as his own glass was still half full of his own dram. So I insisted on getting myself another Oban, but paying for it this time. He duly obliged, with a very healthy measure!His wife to be (they are going to get married in Dublin) then arrived behind the bar, and we all continued to chat together over the counter while he simultaneously looked after the few other customers. It was pretty quiet, but it was ferragosto, and also it was still quite early on Friday night for an Italian pub that is open until 2am.All in all, a 0.5L premium bottled beer, a glass of draught blanche, 2 glasses of Orvieto, the lovely burgers, and the one large dram he actually let me pay for all came to 33â¬. Probably not the cheapest night out in an Italians eyes, but for us it was really tremendous value for what we consumed, and more importantly, we were made to feel like very valued customers by a charming young couple who clearly love their trade and the products they sell.I realise this is a hugely lengthy review of what is at the end of the day a pub with bar food. The place doesn't have a website. It doesn't show up at all on Google maps. I, who have walked by it at least 5 times since it opened had not even noticed it's existence. So, in thanking TA for bringing it to my attention, I wanted to return the favour by giving an in-depth review to spread the word.It is a great wee bar: unpretentious, friendly, huge range of interesting beers & whiskies, and it is run by the nicest people. Go and have a beer. They deserve your custom :)
