La Tipiteca In San giovanni a piro

Eaten by God on the seashore a dream

Good food, friendly service. Nice seating between the promenade and the sea.

We were there this evening and I must say everything was good especially for celiacs like me, they have a gluten-free menu.

Very tasty food and perfect friendly service! Highly recommended to visit

Sometimes when I go out to dinner in my seaside area, I get the impression they're trying to take advantage. It seems to me that in these cases, the waiter or owner's goal is to sell quantity over quality, favoring their own profit rather than pleasing the customer. Positives: average food, without peaks, I'd say, ditto, service, nice place overlooking the harbor. Negatives: we ordered three appetizers (about 18 euros each) for 5 people, which became six appetizers for 5 people (about 18 euros each) because there weren't enough "pieces"—there were four—and so it was easier to bring eight pieces than add the fifth. But you suggested adding the fifth piece to the three appetizers, but you forgot. Too bad (for us).

I'm from the area, and unfortunately, when I go out to dinner in the summer near the seaside, I almost always feel—to put it mildly—like a sheep among wolves. The waiter or owner's goal is often to cram as much food into your mouth and onto your bill as possible. Let's not even consider the very Italian bad habit of charging the infamous cover charge (in this case, €3 per person) or adding a liter of water to your bill as if it were three liters of diesel. But oh well, we've sadly gotten used to it. Positives: acceptable, sometimes pleasant food, equally good service, nice location overlooking the harbor. Negatives: that perhaps over two months you're trying to maximize profits by trampling on rights. Excuse the rhyme. So, three appetizers (about €18 each) for five people became six appetizers for five people (about €18 each) because there weren't enough "pieces"—there were four—and so it was easier to bring eight than to add the fifth. But fortunately, the opposite also rarely happens.
