The Ciardò Cucina di Mare restaurant in Salerno is a hidden gem for lovers of fish dishes. During my visit, I was pleasantly impressed by the quality and presentation of the dishes, which reflect extraordinary attention to detail.
1. tubetti with octopus: The pasta dish was rich in flavour, with a perfectly balanced tomato sauce and fresh ingredients. The pasta was al dente and blended well with the octopus, creating an explosion of Mediterranean flavours.
2. Mixed fry: The fried fish was a real delight. Each piece of squid and prawn was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, without being oily. A well-executed classic that fully satisfies.
3. Mixed seafood starter: The mixed starter was an excellent start. Various tastings of seafood dishes, including octopus, aubergines with tomato and parmesan, and other elements of the Salerno tradition, offer a complete panorama of the restaurant's cuisine. Each component had a distinct and authentic flavor.
The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff friendly and attentive. I highly recommend the Ciardò restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic seafood cuisine experience in Salerno. Ideal for both romantic dinners and lunches with friends or family.

Intimate and original location
In summer you can dine outdoors.
Always fresh food and never banal dishes.
The order of the day is always kindness and availability.
Family management is the true secret and soul of this fish restaurant.

A place with attention to the smallest details, and I'm not just talking about the absolutely original and fascinating furnishings at the same time, but also about those details that give a true sense of welcome and hospitality. Menu studied down to the smallest detail with simple and local raw materials, which can be felt in the dishes together with an authenticity that I have had the fortune or pleasure of encountering few other times. We chose a tasting menu that left us more than satisfied, it was a true sensorial and human experience, which we will remember and which will undoubtedly make us return to these parts sooner or later. The kind and helpful owner immediately put us at ease throughout the evening... we felt like privileged guests. I can only recommend trying this restaurant, a family-run inn with everything you need to excel in catering thanks to food, location and top-notch service.

Italy has been our vacation destination for me and my husband for many years now. We were looking for a nice lunch place on the way to Salerno and saw this place.
YOU HAVE TO EAT THE TASTING MENU - the freshest fish, caught daily. Every single dish is very though through with absolutely amazing flavor. This place belongs to son and mom (I think), and you can feel the love through food. The portion size for tastings was perfect, as you did not feel too full but only happy. My absolute favorite was the fish with potatoes, I just want to eat for the rest of my life. Extremely fresh octopus.
The smile of the owner made our visit spectacular- very attentive and you can just see how much they love this place. The music so perfect, design of the restaurant is what I want to see when coming to Italy.
Also, bread- so perfect. We have been traveling for a couple days and only now got lucky to eat some real good bread.
And the place is opened on Monday which was a lifesaver as we were so hungry. Make sure to visit please.
The tasting menu is around 35 euros and I saw some people complain about it but you need to understand that you are ordering 5 different dishes and have an opportunity to taste them all- that is the beauty of tasting not being set for only one meal. You get the best of the best in different dishes. I loved the dessert too- excellent presentation, I have never seen anything like that and tasted better than any gelato in Milan.
Will definitely return here next year. Thank you owners for creating such magical place.
