trattoria alla Stella - Orvieto, Province of Terni

While the waiters are super nice and the city is splendid, the food was below italian standards. The pasta was greasy, lot of butter and oil, no taste. Couldn't feel the truffle as well.

We found this based on other reviews and wow! They weren’t wrong! Delicious food, helpful friendly staff and an overall great experience. We loved it so much we went both nights we were staying in Orvieto. The menu is ONLY in Italian, so be prepared to use a translation app. Everything we had was fantastic! A couple times what we hoped to order was sold out, but our second choices did not disappoint! I would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future ❤️

The food was good though the pork dish was more skin than meat based on the photo of it pork rolled. Overall, a nice experience.

The staff was very friendly and the food was good, though I must admit I had higher expectations given the 4.8 rating at the time. While most diners will likely enjoy the dishes, I didn’t find the experience as memorable as at other places I’ve been.

We tried the truffle tartare, meatballs, carbonara, and truffle pasta. Of these, the carbonara stood out and is the one dish I’d genuinely recommend. I would avoid the pasta truffle.

Lovely service overall, but for me, it didn’t quite live up to a 4.8 rating.

Like other reviews said, food is simply not great. But also a few euros cheaper than other places. I suspect they have a high rating because there are not a lot of ratings yet for this place and its reasonable value for money.
Bread was incredibly dry, pasta sauce was watery and the same dish we had last week in a different restaurant was just much better there, no doubt about it, similar price.

A lovely restaurant located on the main street leading to the city centre, but still outside the most crowded areas. Judging by the number of reviews, it is a new establishment, but my companion and I were delighted with its simplicity and, of course, its flavours. I ordered a wonderful carbonara with local pasta and it was perhaps the most substantial carbonara I have ever tried. My companion also smiled, tasting the delicious meatballs in tomato sauce. The host/waiter was extremely polite, while his wife was cooking in the kitchen. The experiance was further enhanced by a truly temperamental Italian argument that had been going on somewhere in the building next door above our heads. What a dinner!

Delicious food! We were able to get in without a reservation. Great food, great service, great atmosphere

We were very impressed with this restaurant. They seemed to care about their diners experience and made a point of making us feel welcome. The vegetable appetizer was very good, we also had the tripe and lasagna which were both fantastic. Highly recommend this place!
