Antica Taverna

About

Nestled in the heart of Viterbo, Antica Taverna is a classic Italian trattoria that has earned a reputation as a premier steakhouse. Since 2007 it has specialized in carefully aged beef cuts—including t‑bone, tomahawk, entrecôte and the famed filet—matured for 30–60 days in on‑site cellars before being cooked to perfection on a traditional grill. The interior combines rustic charm with a warm, welcoming ambiance, making it a favorite destination for locals and travelers alike. Beyond its acclaimed meats, Antica Taverna offers an extensive wine selection drawn from neighboring vineyards. The shop section showcases sparkling wines, champagnes, and regional reds such as Amarone and Sangiovese, all of which complement the menu’s hearty flavours. The restaurant’s commitment to quality extends to the kitchen where classic Italian preparations—like creamy carbonara—are served in generous portions, often along with gluten‑free options and high chair availability, ensuring a comfortable dining experience for families. Guests consistently applaud the friendly, attentive service and the venue’s lively yet relaxed atmosphere. While some reviewers note minor ventilation concerns and occasional crowding during busy lunch hours, the overall consensus is that Antica Taverna delivers an unrivaled combination of premium meats, curated wines, and genuine Italian hospitality.
