Mi trovavo a passare per caso e sono rimasto piacevolmente colpito Ambiente confortevole e personale gentile, cucina casalinga con ottimi piatti e abbondanti da tornare sicuramente

Io e la mia compagna abbiamo scoperto l’Osteria La Meridiana per caso, ed è stata una bellissima sorpresa. Entrarci è stato come sentirsi a casa: un’atmosfera accogliente e familiare. La titolare è straordinaria, sempre disponibile e simpatica, quasi come una mamma che si prende cura dei suoi ospiti. Il cibo è di qualità davvero alta! Un luogo che consigliamo a chiunque voglia mangiare bene e sentirsi coccolato.

It is a simple restaurant. The food was delicious. You can sit inside or outside.

Absolutely lovely place! The waitress and owner was so nice and warm hearted, really a pleasure. The food was a dream, actually had pasta and meat main course plus dessert each, but it was too tasty to stop eating. Really can recommend to go here, eat whatever you want, it will be handmade and with passion.
