27/02/2026: Unbelievable service last night at the Arturo restaurant. They went above and beyond, the food was spectacular
22/02/2026: We went to this place recommended by acquaintances.
We went in winter, and they had both a veranda (very nice) and an indoor dining room; we were seated in the indoor dining room.
We opted for a variety of appetizers (also to accommodate the diverse tastes of our guests): baby octopus, sautéed clams and mussels, battered vegetables, and Calabrian cold cuts. I must say they were all good, the only complaint being that the sautéed dish was almost entirely mussels and just a few clams (I would have expected a few more clams, a more balanced mix, but never mind). For our first courses, we opted for cacio e pepe, tagliatelle with meat sauce, two seafood pasta dishes, Calabrian-style inferrettata, and seafood risotto. As for the first courses, with the exception of the tagliatelle and a bit of cacio e pepe, the rest was disappointing. The risotto, which I was counting on, was completely tasteless; the rice didn't really pair with the seafood flavors; they seemed like two separate things, and the seafood ingredients themselves were also tasteless. Since we didn't know what the Calabrian-style inferrettata was, we asked the waiter for details. When we specifically asked if peppers were among the ingredients, we were told no, but they were. Furthermore, the vegetables and sauce didn't pair well. The seafood pasta dishes, besides being flawed (we'd ordered spaghetti and scialatiello, but we received two plates of spaghetti), were overflowing with sauce (too much for my taste) and the seafood was overcooked. In short, we weren't entirely satisfied with the first courses, except for the two mentioned above. Desserts: Delicious lemon delight and tiramisu (we were told it was tiramisu cake, but it was actually individual tiramisu portions).
We then had a Ribolla Gialla to accompany it, which was decent.
In short, I have to say that overall I'm disappointed with this place. The appetizers and desserts were good, but the entrees were lacking in quality.
