As is my custom, I'm leaving the previous review, which you'll find below.
When we vacation in San Felice Circeo, this restaurant is a regular stop. We booked well in advance to ensure we'd find a table. We have a poodle, so they seated us at a table inside the restaurant. While we waited for our appetizers, they offered us some truly delicious appetizers. Appetizers: anchovy and vegetable parcel, cod bites, and prawns in kataifi pastry. First courses: risotto with scampi cream, seafood paccheri Sorrento-style, and ravioli with shellfish and parmesan. Dessert: strawberry tart. Everything was superb. The service was impeccable, making us forget about last year's disappointment. What can I say... the quality is unquestionable, and the price is reasonable for everything they offer. We'll be back.
First things first: my wife and I have eaten here several times and have always been completely satisfied. That said, after countless unsuccessful phone calls to make a reservation, we finally succeeded only by walking in. We wanted to make a good impression on some friends. The next day we went to dinner; the place was busy, but not overwhelming. To avoid any misunderstandings, we mean there were no people waiting for a seat. We arrived at 8:50 PM and ate two appetizers from the taverna without knowing what we were eating, as the waiters were serving very quickly. By 9:20 PM, the appetizers had already been consumed, along with the mussel soup to finish. From start to finish, 20 minutes. Next, we ordered grilled fish, marinated salmon, and desserts. We drank a bottle of prosecco. At 9:50 PM, we paid the bill. In conclusion, the quality of the food and the portions were, as always, top-notch. The rushed service undermined the kitchen's excellent work and ruined our evening.

The best restaurant in Circeo and beyond. I've been coming here for years and am always amazed by the top-quality products they serve. The staff is friendly, professional, and always attentive to guests' needs, without being intrusive. A special thanks to Marco and regards to the owner. See you soon, Paolo Fornari.

What can I say... after such a long wait, I expected more...
The appetizer was excellent! Both in quantity and quality, but the spaghetti with clams was just mediocre.
The service, I'd call it bizarre: the staff were kind but very uncoordinated, the dishes arrived while we were still eating our other dishes, and the bill was sent back three times...
Overall, adequate.

We stopped for a business lunch; they were courteous, quick, and very clean. The appetizer was so generous that we couldn't finish the first course. The raw ham was excellent, and the tiramisu was homemade. I'll definitely be back. Alessandro, the head waiter, was so friendly, he made me feel like we were longtime customers, but it was our first time. Florin from Rome

We went to this restaurant on a recommendation from friends. I recommend making a reservation because it's always busy!
It has two dining areas, one facing the street and the other across the street, with a harbor view. I recommend the one overlooking the sea.
The very friendly staff immediately seated us and made themselves available.
The appetizer with butter, Cantabrian anchovies, bruschetta, and burrata was very good,
as was the spaghetti with clams.
A little disappointed with the grilled fish, which, despite being well-presented and plentiful, was a bit rubbery.
Prices are medium-high.
Parking nearby on the street.

We visited this restaurant one evening in August.
We were greeted with great courtesy and professionalism.
Very beautiful place.
The food was delicious... and unexpectedly, they offered us some excellent welcome appetizers, also featuring fish.
A must-see if you come to San Felice Circeo.
