the restaurant is located just at the start of the funicular for the Gran Sasso ski resort, we had chosen a fixed menu and quite frankly it was impossible to enjoy the meat as the appetizers and primi were so good and abundant that we could not help ourselves. Friendly staff, typical Italian village atmosphere, overall good value

This was my first trip to Italy. After exploring Rome and Florence, I took my family to L'Aquila and Assergi underneath the great Gran Sasso to explore my wife's family's roots and meet some of her relatives. The two days in this region proved to be the greatest part of the trip for me. After taking the Tram to the ski area of Gran Sasso, my family and I were treated to a wonderful luncheon by my father-in-law's cousin, who still lives in earthquake-ravaged L'Aquila. She chose all food and wine, and we had quite a meal! Now I've read some of the reviews of this restaurant, translated from Italian, and they were not as impressed as I, but boy was I impressed! First, our table had crisp table linens, and was beautifully set, awaiting our arrival. The antipasti were excellent, and the breads crusty and the best I tasted in Italy. Now granted, I'm not an experienced world traveler, but I am cosmopolitan, somewhat savvy, and being from the New York City area, aware of good food. My wife's cousin chose the food quite thoughtfully to adequately represent this area of Italy. Artichoke hearts, cheeses, multiple sausages all were sublime! A warm, spicy dish of lamb hearts, liver, and I'm not sure what else was pleasantly inviting, if not somewhat, not surprisingly, gamey. Funghi and some kind of puff pastry was also grand! Ok, so this was an adventure, especially for my children, but it was so much fun! That the room was filled with much laughter and joy only added to the ambiance! The owner was quite a character. I thoroughly enjoyed watching her bring two large pots of warm food that she ladled out to a large party of elderly men who were sharing this room with us. It was a great meal.

Incredibly nice staff of a family owned hotel/restaurant. Homemade bread and garbanzo bean salad, two of the best pizza's I've ever had, wine, espresso, and digestive. Talking about family history with the owner and being introduced to family.A gift like this after seeing the most peaceful landscapes.There are people who chose to become a part of the marble underneath the mountain's dirt skin.

A place to be for wonderful food and relaxation. A friend recommended this small restaurant (refuge) just 100m up the mountain at Fonte Cerreto (on the shore of Gran Sasso, just a few kilometers from Assergi in the province of LâAquila). I went to this restaurant last weekend with my family for a lunch and must say it was a great surprise to all of us, as we had never eaten so well for the twenty years that we know the area. Traditional dishes are prepared to perfection, which makes this place so apart from many restaurants in this area - many good or authentic places closed after the terrible earthquake of 2009. Food aside, the breathtaking view also makes the place unique. Booking is necessary as there are only few tables inside but if you are there on a warm sunny day, sitting outside is a must. Prices are extremely reasonable and service is excellent.

We were in a hiking group that spent 5 hours hiking up to the top of Corno Grande from the Rifugio Campo Imperatore. Rather than go back to our starting place, we decided to stop by Abruzzi for something to eat/drink. We were a little worried since we didn't reach the rifugio until 1:45 -- we thought that the lunch service might have been over. But we were welcomed with open arms by the lovely young couple running the place. It's small inside with 4 picnic table sized tables. They had about 6 dining choices. There were 8 of us and we tried almost everything. Unlike some of our other dining experiences, we did not have to wait long for our food to be served. But we were the only people there at the time. It was all very tasty. And the beer was cold, especially after our warm hike. They also have homemade desserts -- cakes and pies. Warning though, essentially no greens or vegetables. As we were told, it was too heavy to bring up to the hut, since everything is carried up.

Five kilometers from the autostrada, the A24, and about 300 meters before your car reaches Elodia (A-low-dee-ya), you see the building rising two-stories high above the sloping foothill meadow where it is set. As others have explained, Elodia is situated at the base of the massive Gran Sasso mountains, near a tiny village, Camarda, and a bit less near to the earthquake ravaged city of LâAquila. The place is composed of three parts: (a) restaurant Elodia itself, (b) the Relais, a six-room hotel, and (c) a special events component for banquets, weddings and meetings. These components occupy the two above-ground floors of a very modern structure of recent origin. The exterior is pleasantly unremarkable, as is the first floor of the interior that houses the kitchens, the wine cellar and the spacious areas available for special events. The second and top floor is another matter. Here are the six guest-rooms, one a two-room suite, all of them comfortable and impeccably clean, as well as Elodia, the restaurant itself. The ceilings are tall, very tall, and that in the dining room spans a space about 10 meters wide, front to back, and 25-30 long. This ceiling is supported by large, exposed beams of beautifully-finished, laminated wood that run the entire length of the room. This design affords each of the handful of tables and unimpeded view out the floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that let onto a terazza adorned with stone flower boxes.The family that owns and operates the property consists of at least the five people who were visible during our visit: the father, whose role seems mainly advisory, the mother, Elodia herself, the original chef, who is in charge of breakfast and serves as consultant to her two daughters who are the chefs, and the forty-something son, a sommelier, maitre dâ of the dining room, and hotel manager. They had begun construction on the site when the 2009 earthquake hit lâAquila. Before this disaster, the plan for the place was that it would be devoted exclusively to housing special events, but when the earthquake hit, it destroyed the original Elodia restaurant, located near lâAquila.  So the family changed course and added the gorgeously modern restaurant and the guest rooms.  During our two evening meals at Elodia, we enjoyed two little stuzzichini, appetizers. One was a spuma (froth) of ricotta (very airy, fresh and delicious) served with a parmigiano 'cracker', and the other a bit of nicely-flavored bread salad.  Among the first courses was an egg flan with deep fried verza (savoy cabbage), a surprise combination that worked superbly. Another first was a porcini and black truffle ârisottoâ made of faro instead of rice, again a surprising combination that produced scrumptious flavors. Yet another creation of the chefsâ light and inventive touch was strips of perfectly cooked trout fillets draped over alternating dollops of pureed small white local beans and of pureed purple potatoes. In a fourth âprimo piatto,â the chefs revealed their other persona, this one stemming from their motherâs roots in the cooking of the Teramo provincia of Abruzzo. Diced lamb innards had been sautéed, wrapped in leaves of radicchio and then deep-fried.  These crispy cylinders were served bathed in a very intense tomato reduction.  One of the second courses also exhibited the Teramo persona: pigeon breast, roasted to medium-rare, then served sliced with a rich, intense sauce made by reducing the roasting juices mixed with some Montepulciano dâAbruzzo. Another second showed again the light, modern, delicate touch: crepes wrapped around fresh porcini sautéed in a way that offered up an explosion of their flavors. This persona also shone through in the crisply-encased square of baby pork loin roasted very long and at a very low temperature so that each bite was meltingly and crunchily tender.The wines and the service were in keeping with the cuisine, that is, they were quietly excellent. Among the wines we tasted with the two meals, especially memorable were two bottles of intensely flavorful Montepulciano dâAbruzzo, by two small nearby producers, and a lovely rosè of Montepulciano that combined beautifully with the porcini crepes. The wines were selected for us by the maître dâ-sommelier and served to us, as was the food, by the cordially professional waiter. A final word of praise, this time for the warmth and deftness of Elodia herself as she served us breakfast each morning.
