Osteria ai Coloniali In Marano lagunare

I rated the food low because the calamari wasn't grilled, but soft, slimy, and still full of ink. The service didn't mention that the calamari were already served with vegetables, and they told me that they've always done it that way, which wasn't true, so they were even mocking me. The vegetables, moreover, looked like they'd been passed over a flame and placed on the plate rather than grilled. It also requires a little respect for the customers, especially since I've never offended anyone. Anyway, I hope it was just a temporary oversight.

A lovely, welcoming place, and the waitress was incredibly kind. We really enjoyed some of the dishes, like the octopus alla Luciana, the peppered mussels, and the cheesecake. Unfortunately, I was disappointed by the spaghetti with clams, but it was bland. Not even the clams were able to provide the missing flavor. The portions were just right; in fact, I was full after the main course. The price for the fish was definitely high, as is the case with any seafood restaurant in Marano, but I find the €2.50 cover charge excessive for standard service. Overall, I recommend it for the kindness of the staff.

Simple, family-run atmosphere. The food selection (hot and cold appetizers), calamari, tuna, and vegetables, was very good and well-cooked. We appreciated the home-cooked food and the friendliness of the owners. The choice of table service could be improved, but otherwise, everything was excellent! We'll gladly return.

Good spaghetti vongole and very well-seasoned peppered mussels. The service was very friendly and attentive. Good house wine.

The food was fresh, tasty, quickly prepared. The service was pleasant, the wine excellent!

Bare furnishings and set-up. Staff a bit "cooked" and rather uncouth on the day of full house (a bit of a long wait to be served) when I happened to be there, but still nice (apart from a frank roughness of the lagooners that some might not like and that doesn't bother me). Despite this, in my opinion they deserve the overall rating because the food was good (mixed hot and cold appetizers very good and plentiful, calamari and cuttlefish ok even if not local) prepared with moderation in salt and pepper, it seems a bit like "homemade" cooking and certainly not refined but simple and effective. Honest prices and house wine.

Consiglio vivamente! Pesce ottimo e super accoglienza! Consiglio antipasto caldo freddo e frittura...ottime!torneremo sicuramente

Superb, everything freshly prepared, high quality. Both fish and meat. Menu with a wide choice as well as wines. Unforgettable scallops! Comfortable and welcoming environment. We will be back as soon as possible!

On a day trip out of town, I came across this wonderful osteria. Two of us arrived for a quick lunch, but they didn't have any seats. We left a phone number, and after about half an hour, they called us. Lunch included two mixed appetizers and two mixed fried fish dishes. I'd say it was excellent overall. The staff were very kind and helpful. Excellent lunch. I highly recommend it.
