da venerio In Castel del piano

28/08/2025: I booked through Google, requesting, if possible, an outdoor table with a sea view. I understand that, having booked the same day, it wasn't easy to accommodate this request, but upon arrival, no explanation was given: we simply found ourselves seated on the veranda. Unfortunately, the evening wasn't the best: a very large table made the place extremely noisy, to the point of being unable to converse with the person sitting across from us. The food wasn't stellar, perhaps also due to the pressure of the kitchen: spaghetti with clams was plentiful but overcooked and too salty; the fried fish was crispy but also excessively salty. As for the wine, several labels on the menu weren't available, and only after several attempts were we recommended the one that was actually available. On a positive note: at the end of the dinner, the owner at least apologized for the inconvenience caused by the noise. Overall, the menu was simple and unpretentious. A restaurant worth trying, but don't expect too much.

24/08/2025: Tasting menu, 4 courses, 2 good, 2 less good… the price was a bit excessive, especially because the quantity was small. I don't expect to eat like in a trattoria in terms of quantity, obviously… but it was really a bit small…
