La Cantina Di Sant'Agustino 1650 In Grottammare

Very good quality/price ratio, friendly and knowledgeable staff, recommended place

Excellent food, very pleasant atmosphere, but reservations and service could be improved. The food is truly excellent, from appetizers to dessert. The setting—this former 17th-century convent with a cloister—is also very pleasant. The problem is another: they never returned our reservation calls. We finally showed up at 12:30, the advertised opening time, just as they were opening the door. We asked for a table for two. It was available, but they kindly asked us to return around 1:00 PM because they weren't ready yet. We returned at the scheduled time, sat down at 1:00 PM, and finished lunch (appetizers, first course, second course, dessert, and coffee) at 4:00 PM. The staff was courteous and helpful, but the service was excruciatingly slow.

What a wonderful discovery. I was invited for a business dinner and wow! I'd heard of it, but I wasn't expecting such a quaint place. I don't want to spoil anything about the decor and location, because curiosity is key these days. I'll just say that, being a creative person, I was very inspired, and we dined in a little room all to ourselves! The quality of the food was very high, but I don't know how much it cost since I didn't pay. It left a great memory, and I'll definitely be back with my family!

Great food, great service, super venue

Excellent food in a very welcoming and unique place! Patient and helpful staff! Quality seafood.

Tasty menu, very fresh fish, friendly staff and fast service and last but not least, the tiramisu is also excellent!

It's always nice to stop here. And I always learn new dishes: well done!

Yes, I would go back! The food was good, the fried cod gnocco was special. The restaurant is housed in a small, ancient monastery, so it features exposed brick and vaulted ceilings, and walls filled with curious objects. So, it's not a huge dining room full of tables, but each table has its own "room." I think it's ideal for dinners for 5-10 people. I was there in the winter, so I didn't get to enjoy the outdoor space. It's located in Grottammare Alta, but it's easy to get to, and there's a large parking lot a 5-minute walk away. PS. The only downside is the acoustics; it's not loud, but the sounds echo strangely!

A wonderful experience, simple but excellent cuisine. Excellent pairings and excellent value. I will definitely be back.
