Awards Candidates 2019

24/02/2026: We chose the Cambusa restaurant in Martinsicuro to celebrate our fourth anniversary, and overall the experience was a truly pleasant one. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with great courtesy and professionalism, which immediately created a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. The staff was attentive, helpful, and never intrusive—a quality that is far from a given these days. The atmosphere is refined, clean, and well-organized. There's a sense of order and tranquility, allowing you to enjoy the evening without clutter or excessive noise. The location is welcoming and suitable for both romantic dinners and convivial gatherings. Regarding the cuisine, the dishes are beautifully presented, and the quality of the ingredients is evident. The fish is fresh and well-prepared, with simple yet tasty preparations. We particularly appreciated the lightness of the flavors and the overall balance of the dishes. The portions are adequate and satisfying. A few small details could be improved, especially the timing of service between courses, which at times seemed slightly delayed. Nothing major, but a more fluid pace would make the experience even more enjoyable. Even some dishes, while good, could use a little more flair in terms of character or originality. Overall, Cambusa proves to be a reliable restaurant, with good quality and attentive service. A place where you eat well, feel comfortable, and feel welcomed. Definitely a positive experience worth repeating. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

26/12/2025: A family-run restaurant where service is simple and efficient, and the cuisine is inspired by local seafood traditions, featuring fresh fish. Dishes are well-executed. Prices are fair.

15/02/2026: Screaming children everywhere. A distracted waiter, nonexistent menus and prices. Everyone was completely unprofessional, they didn't take your plates away or even consider your order. The food was barely edible, all the dishes were very, very poor. The game was on full blast, everyone was screaming. You left with a headache, disgust, and disappointment. It was all very typical, if by typical we mean horrible. They told us to book at 9 PM, and then they ran out of desserts... Please, if you want a pleasant and quiet evening, avoid it like the plague.

26/12/2025: Excellent, unpretentious, traditional osteria with delicious arrosticini and other small Abruzzese delicacies that are truly mouth-watering (I definitely recommend the mazzarelle...they're delicious). Reasonable prices, highly recommended.

12/04/2026: Inconspicuous, hidden away in a beautiful vaulted cellar, we had a wonderful lunch with natural wine.

03/01/2026: Welcoming place and a distinctive "Abruzzese" kindness. Excellent food and wine. A wonderful surprise.

19/04/2026: Excellent! After booking, we arrived at the restaurant after a lovely stroll through the center of Atri. We were greeted professionally and seated at our assigned table. After a beverage, we ordered. Appetizers included bruschetta and fried cheese, followed by Teramo-style chitarra pasta and tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms. Second courses included local chicken and pork loin with plums and peppers. Sides included fresh, hand-cut fries and peppers with egg. The delicious flavors of all the dishes can be described in a single word. Excellent, to say the least! The location, with public parking inside, the colors and furnishings convey a sense of enchantment with a beauty and cheerfulness that is hard to find. Reliability and professionalism make the difference! Average value for money.

11/04/2026: I ate very well and spent very little. I will gladly return.

15/03/2026: Ambrosia Hellenic is a wonderful place... We felt pampered by the flavors of true Greece both in the dishes and in the welcome from the managers, it really seems like being in a tavern in Greece, the same atmosphere, tavern managed by Spyros and his wife in an excellent and familiar way, dishes prepared by the owner with great care and attention, quality products and dishes with a unique flavor, we enjoyed it very much and we spent the right amount, what can I say, we will return as soon as possible because Greece has entered my heart and thanks to this tavern in Ferrandina I can go there whenever I want without having to take the plane

11/05/2026: Everything was very good, even the service. The space is divided into two L-shaped rooms; the larger one is crowded, while the other is significantly better, except for the table near the internal door, which definitely needs to be eliminated. A bit overpriced, especially for wine: a glass costs €10-15...

10/05/2026: We came from Mexico, arriving in Matera hungry and without a reservation (many places in Italy require one). We went in here and it was fantastic. Even though I come from the American continent where we eat a lot of meat, I can assure you that I ate the best meat of my life at this restaurant—so much so that I ordered seconds!

13/04/2026: Everything was superb! A heartfelt thank you to Piera and her entire family! An enchanting place, we spent a perfect weekend surrounded by nature! We'll be back soon! Valeria, Vito, and little Anna ❤️

12/04/2026: I should point out that I only used the restaurant service. I had a family lunch with a fixed menu for €38: everything was delicious, varied, plentiful, and locally sourced. The atmosphere is welcoming and ideal, especially for children, given the rides and animals. You can also purchase their homemade products on site. Piera, whom we interacted with, was truly wonderful and helpful. She even helped our little son repot some basil. We'll see you again soon!

12/05/2026: Fantastic food at very reasonable prices, highly recommended!

01/05/2026: My wife and I were passing through (TA) for a weekend. We discovered this place by surfing the internet and reading reviews. Excellent value for money, I'd say 10/10. The food is good and the staff is very friendly. I recommend it!

20/02/2026: Excellent welcome, refined food...will return and recommend...

31/01/2026: Antonio, the chef, and his son, the head waiter, are simply brilliant. They're excellent at everything and, above all, attentive to detail and customer needs. Top-quality ingredients and a selection of quality wines. After dinner, rum and chocolate before saying goodbye. See you soon.

14/05/2026: Great place for gluten free and lactose free. Nice atmosphere. Delicious homemade GF pasta and sauce. Highly recommend.

09/05/2026: Exquisite and friendly service. I recommend the bruschetta.

09/04/2026: Impeccable service and exquisite dishes. The place is welcoming and spotlessly clean. A great find in the city center, definitely worth a try.

06/04/2026: Ordered fish with vegetables. We never received the vegetables despite complaining. At the register, we were then told it was a kitchen mistake, without any apology or compensation. It's shameful! Not to mention the coffee, which never arrived either (and wasn't charged).
