10/06/2026: A pleasant discovery
We came here on a sneak peek from the Marche region. It's a lovely location with tables inside and out, and the place has an elegant yet very casual appearance. We opted for bruschetta and fried cheese for an appetizer, followed by some delicious homemade 35g arrosticini (until now, I'd only eaten them in Lazio), followed by pizzas.
These were definitely high-quality, with a dough that was neither too thick nor too thin, easily digestible, and the toppings were impeccable.
We accompanied our meals with a beer recommended by a very kind waiter. The staff was courteous and attentive.
Thanks guys, I recommend a visit. The menu is very extensive and offers something for everyone.

Our visit to Vecchia Lampada was undoubtedly one of the most wonderful gastronomic experiences of our vacation in Abruzzo.
We were a family, and we were all thrilled. My partner chose the seafood, our children the pizza, and I wanted to discover the region's typical specialties. I ordered the Formaggio Fritto (fried cheese), the handmade Arrosticini (skewers), the Tagliata al Tartufo (truffled steak), and, to finish, a Tiramisu.
Every single dish was exceptional. The Formaggio Fritto (fried cheese) was perfectly crispy on the outside and wonderfully creamy on the inside. The handmade Arrosticini were among the best I've ever eaten: juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The Tagliata al Tartufo (truffled steak) was a true masterpiece: excellent quality meat, perfectly cooked, and sublimely enhanced by the truffle. The tiramisu was the perfect way to end an already extraordinary dinner.
My partner also raved about her seafood, and even the kids are still talking about their pizzas. It's rare for all four members of the family to be so satisfied.
The 2021 Tignanello was also a truly special experience. We were so impressed by this wine that, at the end of the evening, we purchased a magnum bottle to take back to the campsite to continue enjoying it throughout the rest of our vacation.
The service was warm, attentive, and professional. We felt welcomed and pampered from the very first moment. The staff took the time to offer expert advice and played a key role in making the evening truly special.
For us, Vecchia Lampada represents everything that makes Italian gastronomy great: excellent regional cuisine, top-quality ingredients, extraordinary wines, authentic hospitality, and a wonderful atmosphere.
When we return to Abruzzo, a visit to Vecchia Lampada will definitely be a must. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for an unforgettable evening!
