Castello Aragona In Vasto

Well, what can I say? Hats off to them. They're the best! Despite a busy Sunday, they maintained their high quality standards. The raw fish is exceptional, both fresh and high quality. The flatbread is very good, I recommend it. The wine selection is great. Congratulations to everyone.

Spectacular location, a castle overlooking the Vasto Belvedere. It's a shame that's the only positive note. We arrived at 1 pm and had our first course after 2 pm, but I wouldn't have thought it would have been bad if it had been good quality. Unfortunately, the raw fish didn't live up to expectations, much less the price. We ordered hot raw fish, three first courses, two desserts, and a bottle of wine. The price? Over €200, I'd say, definitely overpriced. I had high expectations and was so disappointed that I wouldn't go back. The quality of the fish was mediocre, very frozen, and the first courses, despite being served with fish sauce, only tasted of truffle (and I'm not talking about the grated, flaked kind, but rather the classic sauce) and the other only of tomato... It was truly a huge disappointment, as well as a blow at checkout. Service? Confusing, chaotic, slow... I understand the place was packed on a Sunday lunch, but it's unacceptable to sit down at 1:00 PM, order a few dishes, and get up almost at 4:00 PM. Chocolate tiramisu? Definitely avoid. One of the most beautiful places in Vasto, so if you want to feast your eyes, I invite you to go. And to fill your stomach? I recommend lunch/dinner elsewhere.

We had lunch here with our family and had a really great time. The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and relaxing, perfect for kids too. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the meal, making us feel at ease.

Lovely place, delicious food, attentive and friendly staff.

Very nice location with a splendid view. I expected much better in terms of food.

A well-worth visit with stunning coastline view alone, but the elegant interior and refined food make the experience even more memorable. The seafood is generous and very well prepared, and the tomato-based sauce is balanced in a way that enhances the natural flavour of the seafood rather than masking it. The wine selection is extensive, with labels from Italy, France, and Spain. The chef’s friendliness added a very personal touch to the evening.

Excellent place from all points of view.

Excellent seafood dishes, quality food and wine. Stunning views.

A truly enchanting place: a unique view, a refined atmosphere, and captivating cuisine. Each dish is prepared with the freshest ingredients and meticulous attention to the flavors of the sea. The owners, Marino and his son, are exceptional: welcoming, professional, and always ready to make every guest feel special. Here, you don't just eat well... you live an experience. Castello Aragona is one of those places that stays in your heart: quality, beauty, and top-notch hospitality. Highly recommended.
