Il Forno in Piazzetta In

26/09/2025: We went for a family dinner. It was a very pleasant evening. We started with the house antipasto (three chef's courses): parmigiana, fresella with marinated anchovies and mayonnaise, and arancini with cacio e pepe. For our first course, we had: tubetti with seafood and creamy potato and parsley soup (truly delicious), vermicelli with anchovies, dried tomatoes, tarallo, almonds, and walnuts (an incredible flavor, and I love that it adds a crunchy touch to a first course), and a Nerano so good it was eaten before we could take a photo. We could have stopped right away, as Mr. Luigi, who masterfully guides diners through this journey of traditional yet innovative flavors, is a delight. The portions are more than generous, but we were intrigued by the main courses, so we also ordered fried anchovies, baby octopus, and shrimp (masterfully fried: dry and flavorful), fried cod accompanied by a homemade Tropea onion jam (excellent, perfectly deboned cod fillet), braised tuna (a very interesting dish that's a departure from the seared tuna typically served in restaurants), and amazing squid stuffed with escarole and olives. A few brave souls even ordered dessert: a delicious ricotta mousse accompanied by a warm chocolate and almond crumble. We drank a good Fiano, and for those who preferred bubbles but didn't want to drink too much, they offered a truly appreciated glass. First and second courses range between 16 and 18 euros. The quality, quantity, service, friendliness, politeness, and honesty were exceptional.
