Instant confirmation or on request: what actually changes
On the same page, two restaurants can behave in two different ways. The difference isn’t cosmetic: it’s whether the table is yours or not.

Where the listings come from, and why they’re sometimes wrong
No restaurateur asked to be here. That’s why the catalogue is broad, and it’s also why it goes stale.

«All verified»: what it means, and what it doesn’t
Here a review is tied to a meal that took place. It is an inconvenient rule — it shuts a lot of people out — and everything that «all verified» can promise lives inside it.

Eating in Rieti
Rieti sits in a basin ringed by mountains, and its province contains Amatrice: the best-known dish of Roman cooking was born up there, among shepherds.
Amatriciana, and gricia
The recipe is guanciale, pecorino, tomato — and before tomato there was gricia, the same thing without it. In Amatrice it is made with spaghetti; in Rome also with bucatini.
The other dishes
- Fregnacce — squares of egg pasta with sauce, or the rolled and filled version;
- Stracciatella in broth, egg and cheese;
- Trout from the Velino and river crayfish;
- Coratella with artichokes, in spring.
The products
Sabina DOP olive oil — one of the oldest denominations in Italy — pecorino from the Monti della Laga, Rascino lentils and the pea bean of Accumoli.
The sweets
Sweet fregnacce and the cannoli di Rieti filled with sheep's ricotta.
Opening hours and closing days change. The ones on the listings come from public sources and may be out of date. Where a restaurant confirms tables with us, the availability you see is the real one.
