23/06/2025: A wonderful seafood experience in Marina di Casal Velino
We went to this restaurant on Sunday evening and were really impressed. The place is elegant, with attention to detail, and a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
The kitchen is entrusted to a chef who demonstrates technique and creativity: each dish is well-finished, balanced and full of personality.
I started with a tuna tartare accompanied by avocado in double consistency, mango compote, kataifi brittle, almonds and contrasts. Next, tortelloni filled with buffalo mozzarella stracciata with yellow datterino tomatoes, capers, red prawn in double consistency and friggitelli brittle: a surprising dish, with a strong but perfectly balanced flavour. The second course, a baked aubergine boat stuffed with prawns, bread, capers and basil, completed with parmesan fondue and basil emulsion, was a very successful meeting of land and sea.
My girlfriend started with a delicate steamed octopus on a flatbread of new potatoes and olives, and then continued with excellent linguine with sea urchin and lemon zest. The second course, roasted octopus tentacles with a minestrina of fiorilli and vegetables, was original and well executed.
The service was courteous and discreet. In short, a beautiful gastronomic experience, where the quality of the sea meets creativity and respect for tradition. We will definitely be back.
21/06/2025: Street Stritt is a real revelation! A place that manages to combine the soul of street food with the excellence of gourmet restaurant cuisine. The two red prawns are absolutely deserved: very high quality, research into the ingredients and obsessive care in the dishes. It was a surprising journey of flavours: perfect balance, very fresh fish, and a careful but no-frills presentation. You can feel the passion in every bite. The staff is kind, fast and prepared, and the modern and welcoming environment makes the experience even more pleasant. Ideal for those looking for something special, but without sacrificing simplicity. Highly RECOMMENDED!!!
