We found this place thanks to social media videos. Had we known about it, we definitely would have gone sooner. The restaurant is located within the walls of a castle. Friendly and helpful staff, the music, the costumes, the venue, everything has a medieval theme. The food is unique; we really enjoyed both the food and the house wine. After eating, you can take a walk around to see the beautiful view. The price is right. We were very happy.

An inn that delivers on its promises. Unparalleled atmosphere and food. We were warmly welcomed at the "courtyard" of Montecuccolo Castle. I recommend "getting lost" amid the spicy notes of hippocras. I hope to find other reasons to return.

An enchanting place located in the heart of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. Unfortunately, we had an unexpected event and arrived late, but the staff welcomed us with hospitality worthy of a noble! The atmosphere is very pleasant and transports you back to the Middle Ages, but the dishes are a bit disappointing: the first courses we tried were delicious but way too salty. The wild boar and venison chops we ordered for our second course had the opposite problem. The desserts and the spiced honey wine were excellent! The price is certainly not cheap, so keep in mind that you're also paying for the location and atmosphere.

Beyond excellent, highly recommended! We went on a Saturday evening and chose the medieval banquet option. The osteria is beautiful and extremely characteristic. The meticulous attention to detail helps make the dinner a truly unique and special experience—it certainly won't be the quality of the food alone that will keep us coming back. Warm welcome, very quick service, truly excellent food and drinks. The banquet is plentiful, you certainly won't leave hungry! On the contrary, you can even ask for seconds of whatever you want. If you haven't already figured it out, Tavola del Maniero has remained in my heart.

Fast and delicious, amazing range of authentic feeling drinks options - food options were concise, but covered a wide variety of tastes, and off-menu items were offered too. Would recommend to anyone.

Great & interesting meal in an authentic castle. The varied menu was full of surprises for our party of 5 and the owner and staff were extraordinarily nice & welcoming. Perhaps the finest combination of excellent food and atmosphere we encountered in our 2 weeks in Italy.

A 360º medieval experience, where every detail has been curated to transport you to medieval times! Each dish is very particular, strong flavors but worthy of a feast of the thirteenth century. Also the views of the tower of the Castle Montecuccolo while you have dinner are priceless. I highly reccomend it!
