Grancia dei Celestini In Sulmona

21/08/2025: What can I say? The food here is divine: traditional Abruzzo cuisine, cooked and prepared with love. The owner is incredibly friendly and truly talented. The restaurant has that mountain aesthetic that evokes the very folklore I adore, and the staff is fantastic and efficient. For those who passionately enjoy traditional, high-quality cuisine, this place is the perfect choice! My family and I are gourmets, so the food made us greedy, so much so that we even indulged in second courses ;) I recommend booking in advance because the restaurant fills up quickly, being in a tourist area, but I guarantee you won't regret it! The price is fair: for the quality you get, everything is impeccable, from appetizers to dessert. A little bonus: Calimera, the cat who welcomes you to the restaurant, is adorable.

13/08/2025: Nestled in the enchanting setting of Santo Stefano di Sessanio, this location is magical regardless... the owner, Silva, is a man from another era who, once you get to know him, is the real gem of this little Abruzzo gem, both for his culinary knowledge (the dishes are simply fantastic and authentic; especially the mushroom lasagna and sheep's milk ricotta ravioli) and for his old-fashioned attitude. The cuisine is fabulous; I would return a thousand times; the house red wine is also delicious. I highly recommend it. The only advice: book in advance.
