Cala di Ponente In Pescara

18/03/2026: I celebrated my birthday here a few months ago, encouraged by the positive reviews. There were eight of us (six adults and two girls who had gnocchi with tomato sauce) and we ordered a few appetizers to share, along with some fried foods and a first course each. The appetizers were nothing special; we found them generally a bit dull. The first courses were nothing special: a somewhat bland seafood mugnaia and a sagnette di ceci e vongole (chickpea and clam pasta) with a pinch too much salt. The bread basket was excellent, but the quantities were so small that we had to ask for refills, I think, at least four times. Perhaps we could have avoided this by bringing a few extra plates. The fried food was very good: fragrant and flavorful, a delight. Unfortunately, the price was disproportionate for what we ate. I'm sorry, but the truth is that in the area you can eat much better with the same quality and for less money, in equally nice places. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.
