We not only had the most delicious meal at Visconti but the entire experience was the best dinner during our trip to Italy. Leonardo is the amazing chef and his wife Jaynie serves the food. But those titles don’t do them justice because they treat...More

  It was one of the best cooking experiences I've ever signed up for. The atmosphere was simply magical. I felt like a real Italian girl learning to cook the old fashion way. Jaynie and Leonardo were just wonderful and extremely helpful throughout the whole course....More

  This was an amazing cooking class - one of the highlights of my trip to Italy. This was more than a very hands-on cooking class, but an experience that included visiting the garden where most of the ingredients are sourced and a visit to the...beautiful waterfall that irrigates the garden. Chef Leonardo and his wife Janey are wonderful hosts who really care about having an authentic experience and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. We prepared 3 different pastas, including one with wild boar that Chef Leonardo hunted, a delicious lemon tiramisu and chicken with saffron from their garden. Chef Leonardo was patient and also focused on making sure I used the right techniques in preparing pasta - I definitely feel ready to prepare these dishes when I’m home. My only regret is that I did not have time for their multi-day classes but I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this incredibly special and delicious experience. More

  Wonderful atmosphere watching the sunset over the mountains with delicious locally grown food and wine. Personal service and attention to diners made this a very special dinner.

  My fiancé and I took a day trip to San demetrio and we had the most amazing lunch at the Visconte Kitchen restaurant. We met the two lovely owners and we're absolutely surprised by how brilliant the food and hospitality was. Thier prices aren't crazy and we had a really great experience with the welcoming owners Janie and Leonardo. We will definitely be going back there again in the future!

  We arrived a little later than our booking having visited the caves locally first, but were welcomed very warmly by all the staff at this family run restaurant, especially Jaynie (front of house) & Leonardo (the master chef) . The restaurant is beautifully decorated with...More

  When was the last time you had your pasta cut just before you dined? For an experience of the most gracious hospitality accompanied by beautifully prepared food bursting with the flavour of your dreams you must dine at Visconti Kitchen and Cooking School. Chef Leonardo...More

  We arrived at Leonardo and Jayne’s during some of the worst weather Leonardo had seen in Abruzzo so unfortunately we were unable to go into the garden, but this did not spoil our experience in any way as the day was so wonderful it really...More

  We had Ferragosta lunch here with family and friends and as usual the food, wine, service and ambiance were second to none. Having visited Abruzzo many times over the past five years this is still our favourite restaurant by far. Highly recommend a visit BUT...More
