L'Ostricaro In Terracina

Exclusive aperitif featuring raw seafood overlooking the sea...excellent wine list, highly recommended!

Super fresh and perfectly cooked fish, impeccable service, and a breathtaking location. Professionals

Fantastic raw fish, fantastic view and the price is right!

The sea view here is absolutely fantastic — paired with nice music and a quiet, relaxed atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot for a romantic date night. The seafood was excellent and definitely worth trying. The only downside was the service — it seemed like the staff forgot about our order, and we ended up waiting for about an hour before our food arrived. That said, the overall experience was still enjoyable, thanks to the ambiance and quality of the food. I’d come back again, hoping for a bit more attentiveness next time

Mario l’ostriCARO In the sense that they made a mistake in the bill by charging us €20 more and then they didn’t want to give it back to us because “you paid with the POS”. The fried food in the photo cost €25 and the water €5 per bottle, and we ate in the part without table service, without a tablecloth.

L’Ostricaro – The Temple of Raw Food in Terracina In Terracina there is a place that for decades has been a fixed point for those who love the sea on their plate: L’Ostricaro. Today, under the guidance of Vincenzo and his brothers, this restaurant has become a true Temple of Raw Food, capable of offering a gastronomic experience of the highest level. Here the location makes the difference: the restaurant overlooks the sea, offering breathtaking views, while the majestic Temple of Jupiter Anxur dominates behind it. A unique atmosphere where history intertwines with culinary tradition, creating an unrepeatable context in which to experience the flavors of the Mediterranean. The raw food counter is a celebration of the sea: sought-after oysters, clams, sea urchins, local clams and molluscs selected with extreme care. An experience designed for the most refined palates, to be enjoyed slowly and attentively. The wine list is equally up to par, with high-quality Italian and international labels, perfect to accompany the cuisine offered. The price is high, but perfectly in line with the gastronomic offer and the experience as a whole. Among the hot dishes, the spaghetti with local clams and the squid ink deserve a special mention, authentic workhorses. Appetizers and main courses are built on local fish, fresh and enhanced with great technique. Finally, a round of applause for the service, always courteous, responsive and professional. An unmissable address for those seeking refinement, quality and a deep connection with the sea and history.

The quality of the fish is undoubtedly excellent, but the prices are far from the service offered to guests. First of all, when you order the catch of the day, it is absolutely necessary to communicate the correct weight at the time of ordering, but above all to show the customer the cooked fish and prepare the dish in front of the customer. With the bill we discovered that the fish ordered for one person was around 1100 grams (compared to the 700 grams communicated during the order): it is not a question of economic possibilities, but of correctness. Furthermore, forcing a table of 2 people to have to choose the same first course is absolutely unacceptable given the level where this place wants to place itself. In addition to this, waiting 45 minutes for two very simple first courses is outside of any reasonable time frame. In short, a wonderful location, excellent fish, but service that needs to be rethought from scratch.

Massimo is a golden person, kind, helpful and friendly. Very fresh fish😍

Without a doubt a nice little place to have a snack or eat facing the sea. It is written clearly: there is no table service but it is not a problem for those who stop and want to take a break enjoying their raw fish. There is a restaurant room aside and there they serve at the table and also hot dishes. For the prices charged, they are displayed and you can adjust. You can immediately see that they have a historical culture and passion in dealing with seafood👍. Personally I bought mussels and I found them very good but I did not eat them raw. There is a wide choice of oysters and lovers will surely find the ones they like best. Outdoor tables with sea view. Parking nearby

Beautiful experience, appetizer with excellent French oysters, of course. Perched on a rock overlooking the sea, I highly recommend it. Professional staff.
