Antica tipica trattoria La Moretta In Ancona

There are places that don't just serve a meal, they tell a story. For me, Ristorante Moretta was one of them. I arrived with a specific desire: to try their stockfish. Yet, what I found exceeded all expectations. A dish reminiscent of the sea and tradition, prepared with a care that transformed a simple taste into a treasured memory. Next came the zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta and anchovies: delicate and harmonious little treasure chests of flavor, where each ingredient seemed to have found its perfect place. We chose to dine outside, caressed by the evening air. The friendly and smiling staff made us feel more like welcome guests than customers. The service was impeccable: attentive, discreet, and surprisingly fast, with dishes delivered to the table without any waiting. And as every good story deserves a fitting ending, the amaro del pescatore, offered as a digestif, added a special final touch, a little treat that completed the experience. But what truly struck me was the restaurant's soul. Entering, you feel like you're crossing the threshold of a museum of memories. The warm wood harmonizes with the tartan tablecloths, while the walls, adorned with paintings and relics of the past, seem to recount lives, encounters, and traditions. And then that piano, the silent guardian of the room, evokes the warmth of a family reunited, of shared evenings, of authentic emotions. Moretta is more than just a restaurant: it's a place where flavors meet memory, where every detail speaks of passion, and where you feel part of, even if just for one evening, a story that lives on.

A unique experience in the center of Ancona. Excellent local products and truly top-notch staff. Highly recommended.

Excellent food. The owners are a bit snobbish. Adding three euros to a plate of fritto misto for free from bones seems arrogant to me. Not to mention, anyone who's eaten fritto misto at a Piedmontese restaurant is worth six times that amount of money. Prices are high. Lucky them, they've made a name for themselves over time.

An average restaurant. Nothing exceptional.

Good food, fast and pleasant service.

We chose La Moretta for the best Ancona-style stockfish, but that wasn't the case!

Courtesy, availability, well-kept environment

Excellent cuisine, kindness and professionalism

The food is very good, although the portions are a bit small. The atmosphere is extremely pleasant and the staff is very friendly. I recommend.

The culinary experience was beautiful. The dishes were very well prepared, and the staff were kind and welcoming. I recommend their two traditional stokafish dishes.
