Da Settimio
If you stay on Isola Polvese, you’ll most likely pass by this restaurant near the ferry terminal in San Feliciano. It doesn’t look like much, but locals know it as the best fish restaurant in the area, handed down from father to son for four generations. Try the risotto alla pescatora (fisherman’s risotto) or the appetiser of ‘fried little fishies’.

Il Lido Solitario
It isn’t often we recommend the heavily trafficked waterfront restaurant with the bright plastic signs, but it isn’t often you get to try a delicate fish cake topped with sweet Castelluccian lentils or a tender Chianina beef infused with Sagrantino wine. Grab a front porch table overlooking the nearby lake for a true summer experience.

La Cantina
Not only is the well-priced restaurant fabulous – a stately interior with a lovely outdoor terrace for summer dining – but there’s also an adjacent magazzino (shop) where you can sample and buy the area’s best wine, olive oil and treats. Try the delicious trout with local fagiolina (€8.20).

Le Grotte di Boldrini
Umbrian-style comfort food abounds at this hilltop trattoria in quiet Panicale, above the lake. Meats are grilled on an open fire, perfect for a chilly day, and fresh fish is served on Fridays. Try the decadent macaroni in norcina (from Norcia) cream sauce with spicy sausages.

La Locanda di Gulliver
Even if the food wasn't absolutely fantastic (which it is), the drive out here would be reason enough to stop in. The restaurant is housed in an old brick farmhouse near sunflower-draped fields of yellow; the inventive menu features gems like cinghiale bruschetta with local olive oil, eel and yellow pumpkin risotto and tagliatelle with local smoked lake fish. Did we mention the homemade pizzas, hot out of the brick oven?

L'Acquario
This rather refined restaurant is a great place to try out the local carp in porchetta fresh from the lake or have an appetiser of eel in tegamaccio.
