Barbanera In Alba adriatica

As often happens, we had dinner at this restaurant, which I believe has the best location in Alba Adriatica. The food was delicious, the staff was young and friendly. Then, something unexpected happened! The plastic chair I had been sitting on for the entire dinner gave way! I fell flat on my face, and since I was wearing shorts, I suffered two cuts on my legs. Since I was taking blood thinners, the blood wasn't coming out very copiously, but it was coming out! Some very kind people at the table next to me helped me get up. A waitress brought me disinfectant and plasters! I was shocked by the behavior of the guy I believe to be responsible, a guy whose only concern was that I didn't hurt myself so much that I had to call an ambulance with the consequences that would follow. Given that fortunately my financial situation doesn't cause me any problems, I would have expected a discount on the dinner or at least that I had been offered my share, since I was the one who downplayed the situation and reassured everyone. Evidently, money comes before human relationships! The guy delegated a waitress to avoid having responsibilities!! I adopt a maxim "always use good manners, because what you consider useless today could be indispensable tomorrow"!! If I had called the police they probably would have been in trouble!!

The staff were friendly but the beach service wasn't exactly nice, the sand wasn't cleaned, they were packed like sardines and the price wasn't really in line with what was offered.

A charming place for breakfast, aperitifs, a generous seafood lunch, and gluten-free options. And then dinner at sunset...enchanting!

Excellent restaurant, perfect beach service, if you pass by here ask for Luigi he will treat you like a brother

Barbanera Beach ⭐⭐⭐⭐ _Sea, music, and cuisine that tastes like summer_ I went to Barbanera Beach for dinner and I can confirm: it's one of those beaches where you stop for a dip and end up staying until dinner. The location A well-kept establishment, comfortable loungers, quick beach service, and a super vacation atmosphere. Crystal-clear water and a light DJ set during the day; in the evening, the lights come on, making it perfect for aperitifs, too. What I ate – the 2 best dishes: Mezze maniche allo scoglio. A dish that smells truly of the sea. Pasta al dente, a sauce rich in cherry tomatoes, and a generous amount of seafood: mussels, clams, shrimp, and calamari. It's not your typical "pasta with seafood sauce"; here you can really taste the catch. Just the right amount of flavor, without excessive oil. I'd eat it even in October. Zucchini-crusted sea bream. Elegant and light. The sea bream was perfectly cooked, moist inside, and the zucchini crust gave it a crispy, fresh touch. The presentation was meticulous, and the delicate seasoning didn't overpower the flavor of the fish. Perfect for those who want something less "heavy" but still substantial. The Service Quick and friendly staff, even when the beach was busy. They gave good advice and delivered the dishes promptly. In Short Barbanera Beach is the perfect mix: you can enjoy a day on the beach and eat really well.

Excellent restaurant with a terrace overlooking the sea, fast and attentive service, excellent quality food. I can only recommend it.

Beautiful place, excellent food, fair prices, served by good waiters, I was there in 2025 and returned in 2026, it did not disappoint, I recommend it

Book in advance to enjoy a seaside experience lulled by the waves, excellent cuisine and lots of attention.

Unfortunately, at the entrance where we had lunch under the gazebos they could have also put some fans since it was almost 37 degrees 38 for the price you pay which is also fine but at least a minimum of some fans would have been appreciated

Four of us had dinner and ordered three spaghetti with clams, a steak, and fried calamari with half a liter of wine. The food was good, but the three portions of spaghetti with clams were paltry. They were served on a single tray to be portioned at the table; once portioned, they were enough for two. My son's steak was very good. I don't understand how much of a saving there is in 50g of pasta! The bread wasn't brought, I don't know if it was included. Everything else was fine. The location is gorgeous, but sometimes it's not enough. The price is average, but the pasta portions are meager. I hope this is an isolated incident.
