La Vela In Fiumicino

Great! We needed gluten-free fried food. They cleaned the fryer and prepared the dish. It would be 6 stars.

Not the friendliest staff in the world. Some of our dishes where great, some really not okay. The frito misto di mare contained whole fish with unedible bones and whole gambas in shell. Maybe its a local thing but it makes it nearly impossible to eat normally. The black homebaked bread was to die for seriously good.

The location was beautiful, with a splendid sea view and excellent bread. We ordered six Girardeau oysters (€4.50 each), usually served chilled, and in fact they arrived at the perfect temperature on ice. Two platters of raw fish included a perfectly chilled tuna tartare, scampi, shrimp, and pink shrimp, all cold as raw fish should be served. And who could forget the filleted scallop, whose inviting appearance and freshness were evident in the aroma...just as raw fish should be? A spectacular scallop accompanied by lemon oil and chives, peppered mussels with jalapeño pepper (which those in the know certainly wouldn't confuse with a bell pepper), and cherry tomatoes. It's THE peppery one! We also ordered two plates of Gran Gratinato and three spaghetti alle vongole, which, once they arrived, stunned us with their deliciousness. A €30 bottle of wine, we ate and drank everything with great pleasure, and in the end we paid a very fair €147 without any problem. I'll be back soon to try the many other delicious things the chefs have on the menu... THANK YOU ANY REFERENCE TO THINGS, PEOPLE, OR OTHER REVIEWS IS NOT AT ALL RANDOM... AND SOME THINGS YOU DON'T EXPECT FROM YOUR COLLEAGUES... EVEN IF THEY'RE WRONG THAT DAY... RESPECT FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S WORK GOES BEYOND... BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY THAT FEW PEOPLE UNDERSTAND ANYMORE!

This is my go-to restaurant for my Marche vacations every year. Every bite is special, and I'm always sad when my plate is empty. Shabu-shabu is a must-try for antipasto. The pasta is all delicious. I try a different pasta every time I visit, and this one was by far the best. I highly recommend the Scoglio pasta, which boasts a rich seafood flavor. Even the desserts are homemade, not store-bought. I highly recommend the gelato. The passion fruit gelato is incredibly refreshing. It's the perfect final indulgence. A restaurant you won't regret visiting. Reservations are recommended.

I was there four years ago, I think, and we had a great time. I can say it's improved. In terms of service, the location, and the food. Besides the appetizers and main courses, a special mention goes to the grilled sea bass I had, which was spectacular. The desserts were also excellent. Worth a visit.

I've dined there twice: the food quality is impeccable, the service is perfect and very welcoming, the wine list is good, and the prices are fair. I'd go back for a third time, and who knows how many more...

I'd give more stars if I could, even 10. It gets full marks, I went with my family. The fish was delicious, everything was exceptional, the staff was courteous and professional. It has a place in my heart for many reasons.

Highly recommended if you want to spend a fair amount and get the freshest, quality fish! We'll definitely be back!

Review of summer 2024 We've always known the place and the people who run it. The place is beautiful; there aren't many like it on the PSG seafront. It was one of our favorite places. We're disappointed that they've done away with the cotton tablecloths, which are not only more hygienic but also adequate for the level of service they aim for. We're unsure that some of the innovative dishes don't taste freshly cooked. There doesn't seem to be a single management team. Unfortunately, it's noisy and annoying if you're at a table with families and even very young children. I'd say you should choose the type of restaurant you prefer: more sophisticated or family-friendly, with sticky brown plastic placemats and restless tables. The price is unjustifiably high, given the above. After a year, in the summer of 2025, tablecloths have returned, along with coordinated and attentive service and freshly cooked dishes. The place remains one of the most pleasant on the Porto San Giorgio seafront. Well done.

Excellent quality and more than adequate price. I highly recommend the calamarata: a very particular combination of flavours, delicate and decidedly tasty.
