Bar Ottavio In Pretoro

07/07/2026: Too long. Much too long for the simple dishes we ordered.

05/07/2026: A gem in the heart of Lanciano: impeccable tradition and a unique atmosphere! In the heart of Lanciano lies Abruzzo Gourmet, a place that captivates you from the first moment. The decor is a perfect and successful blend of vintage and modern, creating a warm, refined, and decidedly welcoming atmosphere. But the real journey begins at the table: everything we ordered was simply exquisite. We started the meal with crispy and flavorful bruschetta, then moved on to the first courses, each one more delicious than the last: a rintrocilo with a three-meat ragù, robust and authentic, as per tradition, and a chitarrina with porcini mushrooms and truffle, with an incredible aroma and balance. Of course, we couldn't miss the arrosticini, expertly cooked, tender and juicy, accompanied by excellent baked potatoes. To finish off the meal, we tried the "Nonna Antonietta" pizza: a real surprise, with a light dough and top-quality ingredients that taste like home. If you're looking for the true essence of Abruzzo cuisine with a modern twist and in a stunning location in Lanciano, this is the perfect place. We'll definitely be back! ❤️❤️❤️
