Da Andrea In Cattolica

Just like it used to be!!! A wonderful discovery A restaurant that makes you feel at home as soon as you enter Traditional dishes, expertly revisited We ate the fish and were very satisfied with both the service and the food. Compliments, highly recommended

We were truly thrilled. The food here is excellent, with high-quality ingredients and carefully crafted, authentic seafood. We trusted the wait staff with a selection of traditional dishes, and it was the perfect choice: gratinated and grilled shrimp, polenta with clam sauce, calamari in pea sauce, traditional minestrone soup, stewed cod with potatoes... all delicious and perfectly executed. The wine selection is also excellent, and the homemade desserts are truly top-notch. The staff is superb, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the vintage-style location is stunning and welcoming. An absolute must-visit in Cattolica. 🐟✨

A restaurant where you can feel good: traditional local dishes (uncommon in seafood restaurants), a lovely atmosphere with background music, and great attention to detail. The dishes you see (just a few of the ones I ordered) are all half portions because, wanting to split them with my girlfriend, they kindly served them to us like that, and then left us with a piece of grandma's apricot tart to eat on the go! This was my second time here, and it was a lovely confirmation. Thank you ❤️

Everything was superb!!!!! The food was truly excellent...everything!!!! From the appetizer to the dessert, which is a must! All the flavors remind me of grandma's cooking...unforgettable flavors! The place is very beautiful, well-kept, and clean. The staff is fantastic!!! Congratulations

Personally, I found it very expensive. -Tagliolino €18.00 (not a generous portion) -Minced meatballs €12.00 So far, everything was as per the menu. Then I don't know how they got to €59.00, considering they had three glasses of white wine and a small bottle of water... (2 people) The place was cold. P.S. We didn't order coffee, and no one ordered biscuits!

Excellent lunch, very kind and patient, considering I was with my young grandchildren. Beautifully maintained, excellent bathrooms, but the food is very tasty. Good prices, fair, and I actually thought I'd spend more... good luck, see you next time.

We always love returning to Da Andrea! The intimate atmosphere is meticulously maintained, the service impeccable, and the quality/price ratio are excellent. The dishes are carefully crafted with a focus on tradition. We particularly appreciate the kindness and elegance with which they welcome guests, making them feel at ease. Highly recommended.

I often frequent Da Andrea, but last night confirmed once again why this place is one of my absolute must-visit spots in Cattolica. You don't just come here to eat: you come to experience an authentic tradition, made up of typical local products, seasonal ingredients, and an increasingly rare hospitality. Andrea is always present and alert, the soul of the place, the guardian of knowledge that tells the story of his family and the city. Just look up at the walls and you'll find, in his parents' photographs, a Cattolica that no longer exists but lives on in the flavors of the dishes. And it's precisely this continuity, this deep connection with the past, that makes the experience unique. The menu is a journey through tradition: from the extraordinary chickpea soup to the ever-present gnocchi with ragù, from stuffed calamari to meatballs with mashed potatoes, and other great classics prepared with a care that is evident in every bite. Meat or fish, you can't go wrong here: everything is excellent, authentic, and prepared with full respect for historic recipes. Last night, Valentina, the perfect hostess, welcomed us. It's clear that Andrea has conveyed his great customer service: attentive, smiling, and always present without being intrusive. Impeccable management makes dinner even more enjoyable. My compliments to the entire staff. Keep up the good work: you're one of the most beautiful assets in Cattolica.

Ristorante Da Andrea stands out for its atmosphere. The restaurant is charming and well-kept, an oasis of tranquility far from the tourist crowds of the Riviera, ideal for those seeking a moment of peace. The cuisine is a celebration of the sea: the quality of the fish is excellent, with dishes that showcase the freshness of the ingredients with simplicity and flavor. The service is excellent and attentive, paying attention to every detail, helping to make the experience relaxing and enjoyable. It's not just a restaurant, but a place where the restaurant is experienced as a warm, welcoming family gathering place. Highly recommended for those seeking authenticity and high quality.

We spent ten days in the beautiful city of Cattolica in September-October this year and we kept coming back to Da Andrea for lunch and dinner, because of the amazing food and fantastic hospitality of Andrea and his staff (special shout-out to lovely Valentina). We cannot thank Andrea enough for sharing the background stories about his family recipes and the local cuisine, making us feel so welcome! All the food was fresh, local, and prepared with love and care. Michelin star food and wine pairing but for a fraction of the price in an intimate and elegant dining room in the old centre of Cattolica. We came as guests and left as friends! Definitely worth a day trip if you're staying in the Rimini area.
