al 18 di Piazza Mameli In Ravenna

04/09/2024: Excellent grilled fish and grilled vegetables. One of the few fish restaurants where you can really find the catch of the day and attention to detail (for example fresh bread and focaccia) at honest prices.

03/09/2024: A few steps from Piazza Kennedy, hidden among the streets of Ravenna, there is one of the most interesting restaurants that the city has to offer. This venue, furnished with a fascinating maritime theme that recalls the atmosphere of a fishing boat, manages to combine a welcoming and elegant environment, creating a unique and refined atmosphere. As soon as you are seated, you will be greeted by a small selection of fresh bread and breadsticks, the perfect prelude to the arrival of the amuse-bouche, the "chef's welcome". The menu proposals, in addition to being carefully presented, are characterized by a gastronomic quality that is difficult to find elsewhere. This is due both to the use of excellent raw materials and to preparation and marinating techniques that differ from classic fish restaurants. Among the dishes that impressed me most were the passatelli with seafood, which I found absolutely delicious. The only personal note is that I would have liked a touch of lemon zest, which would have harmonized better with the flavor of the fish, slightly attenuating the taste of the parmesan in the passatello. Another course that deserves a special mention is the grilled red tuna steak. Prepared to perfection, the tuna meat melted in the mouth, with a cooking that fully brought out its rich flavor and succulent texture. A truly phenomenal dish, which alone would be worth the visit. The desserts are equally excellent, accompanied by a wide selection of wines and a surprising variety of gins, whiskeys, bitters and liqueurs, perfect for finishing the meal on a high note. The service is impeccable: the staff is extremely attentive, courteous and always available to satisfy any request, helping to make the experience even more pleasant. If I had the chance, I would return to this restaurant much more often, which undoubtedly represents one of the culinary gems of Ravenna.
