Trattoria Pallotta

Family-run since the early 1900s, a few minutes from the Piazza del Comune in Assisi. Vaulted stone room, handwritten chalkboard menu, the Pallotta family still cooking and serving.

A family restaurant off the tour-bus route. Stringozzi (a hand-rolled Umbrian pasta like fat shoelaces) with black truffle is the order when truffles are in season. Piccione (pigeon) with juniper and sage is the other order. Short wine list, entirely Umbrian. The room seats maybe 40. Lunch is calmer than dinner; both need a reservation. The handwritten dessert list usually includes a torta della nonna.
