Lately it happens all the time: a guest walks in, looks around with a mix of curiosity and disbelief, and then comes the question we now know by heart: “Wait… do you really accept Bitcoin?” The answer, always with a smile: “Of course we do — and it works perfectly.” A family trattoria… with a modern touch La Tavernetta was born in the late ’50s as a simple village trattoria: home-style dishes, local traditions, and that warm, familiar atmosphere that still defines us today. But being traditional doesn’t mean standing still. We love useful technology — the kind that makes life easier, not harder. That’s why we decided to accept Bitcoin as payment in the restaurant, alongside cash and cards. Not as a gimmick, but simply as one more way to welcome our guests. “But… is it safe?” This is the second question we hear right after the first. And the answer is straightforward: yes, it’s safe. Payments go through Crypto.com Pay, a reliable and certified system. Here’s how it works: we bring you a QR code, you scan it, you confirm the payment in your wallet, and the transaction is done. No complications, no strange transfers, no wallet addresses typed by hand. It’s quick, clean, and transparent. One of the comments we hear most often is: “This is actually easier than using a card!” And honestly… they’re not wrong. The important thing never changes Accepting Bitcoin doesn’t change our food, our atmosphere, or the way we welcome people. It’s simply a small step forward — proof that tradition and innovation can live happily under the same roof, even in a little trattoria in Trevignano Romano. Whether you come for a carbonara, a seafood dish, or just to satisfy your curiosity, you’ll always find a warm place here… and yes, if you want, you can also pay in Bitcoin. We’re waiting for you at La Tavernetta — always with the same spirit: good food, good company, and zero complications.

There’s a scent that fills the kitchen and instantly brings us back to festive days, winter lunches, and lively conversations shared over a glass of red wine. It’s the scent of eel alla cacciatora — an old recipe, typical of our area, that has always had a special place here in Trevignano Romano. At La Tavernetta, this dish is more than just food: it’s a tradition renewed with each serving. We carefully select the eel, cut it into generous pieces, and let it brown slowly with garlic and rosemary. Then comes the touch that truly sets it apart: a splash of vinegar, added just in time to release its aroma, and a pinch of patience — the kind you need to let flavors come together and tell their story. This is a dish that speaks of our land, of the rustic and flavorful cuisine of the lake, and of the bold, honest taste that only comes from cooking with heart. And every time we prepare it, it feels like we’re sharing a story with those who try it for the first time. 🧄 Simple ingredients: eel, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, rosemary, salt, and pepper. 🔥 Careful, slow, respectful preparation. 💛 The result? A deep, warming dish that carries the taste of identity. If you’ve never tried it before, now’s the time. And if you already know it… well, you know it calls you back every time you see it on the menu. We’ll be waiting for you, with our anguilla alla cacciatora — full of heart, and full of home. With love from Trattoria La Tavernetta 🐟🍷
