Trattoria L'Archivolto sur Bonifacio

30+ year family run restaurant, home cooking yet inventive and flavorful. The family loves what they do and cook. Attentive service, the owners will help explain the dishes and answer any questions. Just a delightful dining experience on the terraces or cozy interiors. Most known for their lamb and lasagna dishes but they have many new seasonal specials every time we’ve come. 💕

Sometimes you find a needle in a haystack. What a lovely place, amidst all the tourist hustle and bustle. Friendly service that doesn't rush you, even if you ask again what a dish entails (even if there are lines waiting), delicious food (leg of lamb and the salads with ray and with goat cheese/apple and the pavlova).

It's sometimes difficult to find good restaurants in such touristy areas; well, look no further: this one is worth it! The interior had a cozy, homey atmosphere, the lamb shank was delicious, and the service was very pleasant. I highly recommend it!

We came on a recommendation, but what a disappointment! Unfortunately, the family setting, the warm atmosphere, and the cheerful service couldn't make up for the mediocre food. The apple and goat cheese was far too sweet. The skate salad was tasty, but swimming in oil. The lamb shank was bland, and again, too sweet, covered in honey. The lasagna was soggy and lifeless. The portions were generous, but the presentation was crude. Unfortunately, I didn't have the courage to give them my opinion directly, but it's difficult when the owners boast about "family recipes unchanged for 30 years." They may be friendly, but they don't seem very receptive to criticism. In short, we felt like we'd been taken for a ride, just like the tourists we were.

We're from Ajaccio, and we can't help but wish we'd found a similar restaurant back home. The welcome is warm and friendly, like you've always been at home! We had the lamb shank and the meatless lasagna, and I don't think I've ever eaten such simple yet delicious dishes. It's important to point out that those who leave bad reviews are probably just impatient and arrogant, because the owners are simply lovely. We'll be back next year!

A truly wonderful discovery that we absolutely don't regret and highly recommend. A fantastic welcome, a lovely, passionate, and engaging family, and most importantly, truly excellent cuisine. Delicious dishes that they've preserved from Grandma's recipes. Honestly, go there, you won't be disappointed... not by the very personalized decor, which is definitely worth seeing, and finally, if you're a fan of American vehicles, both four-wheeled and two-wheeled, you're in the right place. One thing is for sure: we'll be back as soon as possible. Thank you for this wonderful experience, and all the best to you all.

Downtown restaurant. The outdoor tables are a bit too close together in a very crowded square. The interior decor is very unique. We ate very well, featuring only French dishes, and the homemade desserts were especially good. The staff wasn't particularly friendly, and the prices were in line with the location. I would return.

I booked a table at this restaurant based on friends' recommendations and reviews. The food was tasty, but I was a little disappointed with the cooking and the side dishes (we had octopus). There was a limited selection of wines by the glass. We were served well and quickly, but because of the queue, we felt a bit rushed. I recommend making a reservation.

The food was truly excellent, especially the apple and goat cheese appetizer, the lasagna, and the chestnut tiramisu. Everything was delicious, the staff were friendly, and the service was quick.

✨ A wonderful, atmospheric place hidden away on a charming street! 🍝🍷 The food is absolutely fantastic, you can feel the freshness and authentic local vibe. A fantastic atmosphere, great service, and a fantastic evening. 👍 I highly recommend it to everyone! 💯🔥
