Murena In Pescara

Everything is top notch, it's hard to find a restaurant that doesn't mess up even one dish, everything here is 10 out of 10.

Top location. Excellent traditional Pescara cuisine... Fresh fish and an authentic atmosphere... The prices are reasonable, confirming its reputation as a benchmark for local cuisine.

A regular stop whenever I'm in the area for work. Recommended years ago by local acquaintances, it's always a pleasant confirmation of the quality and price.

The appetizers were excellent, and the chitarra pasta with clams was also good, but a little salty. The man who served us was very helpful and attentive.

Traditional cuisine without equal

I know everything has changed, but I expected more from an iconic place like Murena. The service was a little sloppy, and the food was perhaps below average...

If you’re looking for a truly local seafood experience in Pescara, Murena is the place to go. It’s one of those restaurants where you immediately notice how many locals are dining there — and in Italy, that’s always the best sign of quality. The seafood tastes incredibly fresh — the kind of freshness that makes you feel like the fish was caught just a few hours earlier. That’s exactly the charm of a port city like Pescara, and Murena captures it perfectly. For seafood lovers, this spot is a must. The perfect order? Start with antipasto crudo and a bottle of local white wine — a simple but unforgettable combination for anyone who truly appreciates the flavors of the sea. If raw seafood isn’t your thing, the frittura mista is an excellent choice: light, crispy, and full of flavor. The menu is quite diverse, with plenty of other seafood options as well — from delicious pasta with seafood to a generous pot of mussels in sauce that’s perfect for sharing. Service is impressively fast and professional. The staff clearly know their menu and seem to anticipate what guests want even before they ask. Pro tip: try to visit on Thursday — that’s when the freshest catch of the week usually arrives.

A guaranteed, regular spot for seafood dinner in Pescara, with the murena appetizer a must. The spaghetti with clams is excellent. Highly recommended.
