01/07/2025: Dinner for two: an appetizer, a first course, two second courses, coffee, water and a gin and tonic. Very nice atmosphere, very kind staff and fast service. Appetizer: Bagnun di acciughe. Very good fish, the crostini not very soaked (for my taste), excellent dish anyway. First course: Orecchiette with mussels, shrimp, friggiteli and burrata. Perfectly cooked pasta, excellent combination of flavors. The friggitelo was a bit too much but this could also be my taste. Excellent dish. Second courses: Octopus tentacles and crispy cuttlefish with potatoes, burrata and crostini. Unfortunately the only crunchiness is given by the crostini. Even the owner, at the time of payment, recognized it, octopus too soft, tastes everything, professional. Very good flavor but everything too soft and no crunchiness. "Very" mixed fried food. Abundant fried food, excellent mixed fish. Very good, fresh fish. Also in this case "very" not very crunchy. Dish to share. Coffee served in a special cup, vintage... beautiful. The bill. I would have liked to receive a small discount on the octopus, given the "not at all crunchy" recognition. Coffee and myrtle offered. Delicious, well-kept environment and well-attended customers. Tables on the pier. Suggestions/thoughts. Napkin better in cloth given the well-kept environment, removable hook for bags (so as not to ruin the tables). Spoon for sugar bowl. I repeat only suggestions/thoughts. Compliments.

28/06/2025: 5 stars for everything is not an exaggeration!!! Excellent food of great quality, romantic and particular environment. I loved the furniture, the doilies used as table covers, the lamps and the dishes all different: the common thread is the color red that reinforces the romantic environment. The eccentric and pleasant hostess who knows how to entertain guests by putting them at ease. The waitress who understands and speaks little Italian, kind and helpful, also ready with a joke! Final twist: the delivery of the catch with a beautiful 50 kg swordfish.
