05/08/2026: On Sunday evening, we dined at Civico 57, and the experience was simply excellent, from every perspective.
We started with roasted octopus and "the real" seafood salad: both were impeccable, but a special mention goes to the seafood salad, prepared with the freshest fish and a truly rare balance of flavors. For our first courses, we chose spaghetti with sea urchin and fish-filled ravioli with pistachio sauce: two carefully crafted dishes, rich in flavor, and made with the highest-quality ingredients. All accompanied by an excellent bottle of wine.
What's striking, beyond the cuisine, is the quality of the fish. Knowing that the owner is, first and foremost, a fisherman, is evident in every dish: the freshness of the ingredients is evident and truly makes the difference. We were pleasantly surprised to find such fresh fish, even on a Sunday evening, at the end of the service.
The restaurant is intimate, elegant, and meticulously designed, with a welcoming atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at ease. The entire staff was extremely kind, professional, and attentive, without ever being intrusive.
A special thanks goes to the owner, who stopped to chat with us after dinner, passionately sharing his experience, his work, and his love for the sea and cuisine. It's rare to meet people who exude such expertise, humility, and authenticity.
We come from a city that thrives on the sea and where seafood restaurants abound. Precisely for this reason, we can confidently say that Civico 57 pleasantly surprised us: the value for money is truly exceptional and, as far as we're concerned, superior to many restaurants in our area, where prices, especially in the summer, rise while quality often declines.
When you work with passion, expertise, and respect for the raw materials, the result can only be this. Congratulations to the entire staff. We will definitely return and will happily recommend it to anyone who loves properly cooked seafood.
