Reviews Summary
Ristorante Il Giurista is celebrated for its exceptional Umbrian cuisine, particularly its homemade pastas and truffle dishes, all served with attentive and friendly service. While the food and atmosphere are consistently praised, a few diners have noted occasional inconsistencies in service speed, though this does not detract from the overall positive dining experience. The reasonable prices for the quality offered make it a highly recommended spot in Perugia.
"There is a reason this restaurant is listed on all of the gluten free in perugia blogs! My family and I (a celiac) ate here one evening in Perugia (book ahead if you can, even if you dont think it will be busy) and got lucky to take the last available table on a weekday in mid december. Service was outstanding, everyone was very caring and explained very well which dishes could be done gluten free. I opted for the gnocchi with cheese and truffles, delicious! They even make their own gluten free bread which was fantastic along with the warm chocolate cake for dessert. We were sat in a cosy cave like room filled with wine bottles and really enjoyed our entire meal from arrival to departure! I can't wait for another chance to go back to Perugia purely to eat here!"
