Very nice place; we went for lunch on a weekday. Unfortunately, the service was very slow because, from what we saw, the woman was alone. She was super nice, but we waited over an hour for a plate of overcooked pasta.
The platter was a bit sparse; there were more pickles than cured meats and cheeses.
I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. It's a shame because the place is very good.

What can I say...a magical, historic, and stunning place.
We've been there several times, even with friends.
I booked lunch here after reading some ridiculous, less-than-favorable reviews, which made me laugh, especially the owner's responses. I think you have to try it for yourself, and in fact, we had a wonderful time and enjoyed the food just as much. The staff was fun and fast, and the dishes were unique and very good. I always recommend Taberna when I hear from friends who go to Calascio. Congratulations!

We had lunch during the excursion to Rocca Calascio. The place is cute, with a small dining room and everything else outside. The menu offers a small selection of typical Abruzzo dishes; I prefer them to overly complicated menus that overwhelm you with choices.
The appetizer was fried pecorino, cacio e ovo balls, and summer parmigiana. We continued with ravioli, fusilloni, lamb, and a side of chicory and potatoes. All very good and recommended.
One small point: There's a sign warning of slow service due to the altitude, and to avoid the "scrotal percussionists"... All true, between appetizer and main course, it took a good hour, but to avoid any scrotal percussion, we were patient.

We stayed in an apartment equipped with all the comforts and beautifully furnished. Breakfast was very good. Excellent value for money. Thank you, Alessio.

A very nice little place to enjoy excellent arrosticini. The restaurant is located on a charming little street overlooking the Abruzzo hills.
The only downside is the slow service; we waited about 1 hour and 20 minutes before eating.

Normally nothing extraordinary...for celiacs it only has bread...so for a gluten-free lunch I don't recommend it...but pasta? There isn't any...where you get packaged bread you also get pasta to satisfy celiac customers.

Ormai è diventato d'obbligo fare tappa qui se si è in zona. Arrosticini molto saporiti, come anche le tagliatelle con melanzane, pomodorini e grana. Tutto accompagnato da vino rosso della casa. Forse prezzi un pò alti, ma la qualità non si discute.

Siamo stati con degli amici a cena alla taverna, cibo ottimo, dall’antipasto ai dolci. Personale gentile e posto da favola. Consigliato per chi si ferma a visitare la Rocca.
