Gust'Appunto In Porto sant'elpidio

30/12/2025: A very positive lunch experience today. The exterior isn't particularly impressive upon arrival, but the view from the terrace is spectacular. The interior is small, informal, and comfortable; you can also enjoy the view of the valley from here. The service is warm and friendly, and it's easy to chat with the waiter/owner, who doesn't skimp on explanations and attention, even for children. We opted for typical dishes from southern Marche, which were truly excellent! Honorable mention goes to the Ascoli olives and Campofilone macaroni! The quality/price ratio is absolutely excellent. We hope to return in the summer to eat on the terrace!

30/12/2025: While visiting Monterubbiano, a charming medieval village, we happened to hear about the local dish, fried tagliatelle, a true delicacy. We called and found a table right away. There were four of us, and we ate these delicious fried tagliatelle, followed by grilled lamb, mutton and other skewers, potatoes, Ascoli olives, sautéed chicory, and finally an excellent ricotta and chocolate tart. Everything was delicious, there was no wait, and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately, eating inside meant we couldn't enjoy the breathtaking view of the Marche hills and the nearby sea. Since it's inside a park, I think the place is beautiful in the warmer months. Thank you for your hospitality!
