Awards Candidates 2019

03/09/2025: Bad experience, as soon as they saw a little dog I had they didn't let me in, making the excuse that they were fully booked while the tables were empty.

27/08/2025: Trattoria where you can enjoy traditional Abruzzo dishes, top-quality ingredients at fair prices. The Don Ciccio appetizer is amazing! The chitarra pasta with sheep ragù and spaghetti with Sulmona red garlic are spectacular! The atmosphere is simple and limited, so reservations are a must, preferably a few days in advance.

29/07/2025: Un elogio speciale alla proprietà di questo locale, attenta e capace sommelier!!!! Certo i costi per un aperitivo non sono economici, ma giustificati da una bella selezione di vini, ben spiegati ed accompagnati da stuzzichini leggeri e raffinati!

18/07/2025: Now it is a well-stocked wine shop with well-trained staff

26/08/2025: What can I say? A pleasant discovery. I recommend booking!!!

19/08/2025: Excellent quality. Huge selection: Chinese, Japanese, Thai and even Italian. Quick service even when crowded. Fair prices and free clouds. Pleasantly surprised because the location is strategic but not beautiful. Nice inside. Friendly staff.

03/09/2025: Fantastic culinary experience A must try! Reservations are required as it's always very popular.

01/09/2025: Everything good and impeccable service

02/09/2025: The food is excellent. The portions are generous. I've been going to this restaurant for years and always enjoy returning.

02/09/2025: We'll definitely be back. I recommend it to everyone. Gorgeous place, wonderful service, and above all, delicious food with truly generous portions. Go there!!!

24/07/2025: In generale abbiamo mangiato bene, non economico ma piatti abbondanti e cucina casereccia, location caratteristica con veduta sulla valle

07/07/2025: We had a little dinner in this very nice place and we took a cutting board with some very good cheeses and really special cold cuts, too bad there were really too few. The food was pleasant but it didn't excite me as I would have expected from the reviews, a first course for €18 must be delicious, not acceptable. Amazing innkeeper, too bad I can't say the same about the rest of the team.

25/08/2025: A delightful family evening. We enjoyed delicious dishes in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with very friendly and helpful staff. I especially recommend the gorgonzola and truffle parcels and the arrosticini!

17/08/2025: The food is excellent and reasonably priced, surrounded by beautiful greenery. The owners are friendly and welcoming.

17/07/2025: Varied menu featuring local products, all of excellent quality. The staff and owner are extremely friendly and efficient. The rooms are rustic but well-finished. They also have a lovely veranda in the summer. We've been customers for a while now and will continue to return...

02/07/2025: an exceptional little restaurant. I have been there many times and eaten almost all the dishes. At the top I put the meat (sliced) both for the excellent quality of the raw material and for the skill in cooking it. everything very good even the desserts and ... the icing on the cake .. their liqueurs that are offered at the end of the meal, spectacular the meloncello for my taste. Highly recommended, in fact mandatory to visit if you are in L'Aquila and surroundings

31/08/2025: A quiet place with great food, excellent service, and friendly, welcoming staff.

05/08/2025: We ate wonderfully; all the courses were exquisite and worthy of Abruzzo cuisine! The meatballs were delicious, but I repeat, everything was delicious and perfectly prepared, in addition to the quality of the food. The staff was very kind and attentive to their customers.

27/08/2025: Everything was excellent. As always

20/08/2025: During our stay in Rocca di Cambio, we dined at Ristorante Il Caminetto, nestled in the Sirente-Velino Regional Natural Park, and were thrilled. As soon as we entered, we were warmly greeted by the staff, who escorted us to our table in the lower room: a rustic, warm, and familiar atmosphere where you immediately feel at home. The cuisine is typical of Abruzzo, and you can taste it from the first bite: the mixed antipasto of local cured meats and cheeses was a great start, with authentic and well-balanced flavors. The pork shank was the true star of the dinner: incredibly tender, it pulled apart on its own, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. All accompanied by an excellent house wine. The other menu items, all well-designed, also showcase local tradition using quality ingredients. The portions are generous, the quality/price ratio excellent, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. At the end of the meal, in addition to the classic sweets and liqueurs, the restaurant also offers an original and traditional twist: sweets dipped in artisanal liqueurs. We tried the licorice and aniseed ones—an original and delightful way to end the evening. A tip: if you visit in the summer, book well in advance to eat on the terrace. Without a doubt, Il Caminetto is the best restaurant in Rocca di Cambio—and perhaps in the entire area. Highly recommended!

21/08/2025: The service, location and food were excellent and the prices were also fair.

17/08/2025: Here at Locanda del Barone, you don't just dine; you have a FANTASTIC gastronomic experience! Stefano welcomed us to his restaurant with courtesy and kindness, and expertly and charmingly led us on a gastronomic journey through the flavors of Abruzzo. All the dishes we ordered were exquisite, from appetizers to desserts! The cuisine offered is traditional Abruzzo, reinterpreted with a modern twist. Appetizers and first courses have a perfect balance of flavors, the result of expertly blending the ingredients. The second courses (grilled cheese, sliced veal, and the "sacred" arrosticini) are cooked to perfection, and all of the highest quality. The desserts (pistachio parfait and lemon cheesecake) are exquisite and unparalleled in flavor, completing an unforgettable experience. All this was accompanied by a glass of excellent Cerasuolo, recommended by Stefano's experience and winemaking expertise. The attention to detail and the professionalism of the dining room staff (always smiling and helpful, thank you) were remarkable. An absolutely fair price for an evening of gastronomic bliss (and more).

07/09/2025: Unpretentious tourist restaurant

31/08/2025: I have no words, the meat is inedible, I came home with vomiting and diarrhea.

16/08/2025: Cool place, pretty busy. Good and cheap pizza.

11/08/2025: Everything is very good, from the pizzas to the calzones. The fries are the best I've ever had. The staff is very friendly and welcoming.

10/08/2025: It's our seafood restaurant! Stefano and Romina are excellent hosts, and the staff is superb! Both in the kitchen and in the dining room! The fish is incredibly fresh and expertly prepared, with excellent raw seafood! Always exploring new techniques. What can I say...well done, well done, and highly recommended for anyone who loves quality seafood!

06/08/2025: A restaurant with over twenty years of experience, located in a small village nestled in the picturesque Bregonze hillside: Mason Vicentino is a town that bears witness to ancient splendor, with its ancient noble villas. The restaurant is furnished in an elegant, refined classic style, with outdoor seating in the adjacent garden. Prompt table service. The menu focuses on fish, but meat is also available. We began with the welcome dish: a very pleasant stew with prawns. The Gillardeau oyster appetizer was a sure thing. For the main course, a slice of grilled dry-aged Corba Rossa del Gargano with zucchini, pistachio scapece sauce, and parsley: undoubtedly a successful dish, even the zucchini was enthusiastically elevated. The grilled swordfish slice was also excellent. For dessert, a peanut ice cream: a very pleasant surprise. We drank Cremant de Limoux Rosé. The wine list was adequate. Cost: €70 per person, excluding wine. Excellent service. Ample free parking in the village square, just steps from the restaurant.
