The group of buildings that now makes up the Osteria dell Olmo was originally the house of the owner of all the surrounding lands. Built in 1642, the structures consist of the main building, or the actual house. The servents quarters, including a tap room to store wine, and a small church, and a storage room for all of the dry goods and other foods.
Constructed primarily with stone and wood, the buildings have withstood the test of time, and have a warm character about them.
The property changed hands over the years until, in 1980, it was sold to a business man who turned it into a restaurant.
Three years ago, the current owner purchased the restaurant and made some renovations to the kitchen, mainly new equipment and a new floor.
The restaurant is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner, as well as catered events on premises and off. I'll hopefully be adding another post with some pics of the inside of the building which is amazing.
