Osteria dell'Enoteca
Extremely fit waiters carry dishes up and down a curving iron staircase into this 12th-century tavern. Diners sit on dark wood benches under a high stone ceiling surrounded by rows and rows of local wines from which to choose. Dishes are typical of the area - strangozzi alla spoletina ('shoelace' pasta in a tomato, garlic and chilli sauce, truffle omelette - and priced to allow at least one or two meals while in town.

Apollinaire
California cuisine meets Umbrian tradition: somehow this restaurant manages to figure out that squid-ink pasta does go with pesto and crayfish, and rabbit feels quite at home in a black olive sauce. No matter what, save room for dessert. The menu changes seasonally but you are constantly enveloped in low wood-beamed ceilings and candlelight flickering against brick.

L'Angolo Antico
In a neighbourhood restaurant just outside the main city is this family-run ristorante and pizzeria, with a few suits of armour thrown in for good measure. Nothing fancy on the menu, just good filling strangozzi alla spoletina and scallopine al limone (pork in a lemon sauce).

Ristorante degli Abeti
Get your red-meat and cream fix here. Not the place for dieters or vegetarians, the menu offers sinfully rich piles of artery-thickeners, such as pappardelle con cinghiale e tartufo (pasta with wild boar and truffles) and prosciutto di cinghiale (ham with wild boar).

Osteria del Trivio
Strings of garlic and dried peppers grace the walls of this most homey of home-style restaurants. This is a great place to try the strangozzi alla spoletina (local pasta in a tangy tomato sauce), and the stuffed artichokes are legendary.

Ristorante I Sette Consoli
Foodies have been known to flock here from Rome or Milan just for lunch. With dishes like pan-fried pigeons with caramelized grapes, it’s no wonder it’s considered a leader in nouvelle cuisine. Reservations highly recommended for dinner.

Taverna La Lanterna
A great place with extremely reasonable prices in the town centre, La Lanterna serves a variety of Umbrian pasta dishes. Tasting menus include vegetarian offerings, regular, and porcini and tartufo.

Osteria dell'Angelo
Judged by local food writers to be one of the best restaurants in Umbria, this is certainly an elegant place. Your meal is being cooked by the winner of the 2000 'Chef to Watch' competition. The banana soufflé with a rum-and-cream sauce is recommended and the wine list is extensive.
