Osteria Dal Moro In Giulianova

The best fish in town, all excellent, just steps from the sea. The fried fish is top notch!

A very good friend invited us to dinner here today: it's the very best fish restaurant we've ever visited. The many appetizers are unbeatable. The pasta is a dream, and the grilled fish platter couldn't be better. The only downside is: in the future, a fish dish in any other restaurant will be "okay" at best—and certainly never as sensational as in this family-run restaurant with its unique ambiance. The absolute culinary highlight ever! And I write this as a true Hamburg native (we're also called "Fischkopp") who knows what freshly caught food tastes like.

Three of us went for lunch this Sunday (we had a reservation for 2:00 PM for four, but one of our daughters didn't show up). The restaurant is simple, decorated in white, with a beautiful sea view and a welcoming atmosphere. The service was slow: not that we ordered many courses, but the entire lunch lasted two and a half hours. This was partly understandable, given that the dining room was staffed by only two people, but for those of us who—as tourists—were hoping to enjoy an afternoon by the sea, it seemed excessive. Another critical point: the lack of a menu, neither for food nor wine. We had to rely on what was served, with no choice. The appetizer, a single and unannounced one, was a mixed platter with small samples: sautéed clams, mussels, scampi with tomato sauce, farro with shrimp, fried fish, and a gratinated razor clam. Everything was good, tapas-style, but I would have liked to have known in advance, perhaps so I could have opted for a raw ham. As for the first courses, the chitarrine with clams was excellent; my orecchiette with turnip tops and shrimp was more of a vegetable affair, and you couldn't smell the scent of the sea. The lemon sorbet with homemade fruit in syrup was very good, fresh and carefully prepared. When it came to the bill, the owner was kind and offered a discount, but he ended with an unfortunate quip: "If I had known there were three of you and not four, I would have given the table to someone else." After two and a half hours of lunch and with tables for two vacant next to each other, that's not exactly what a customer expects to hear. A phrase that may sound funny to the person who says it, but it leaves the wrong impression: is the problem really that there were one less?! In short: good food, a pleasant atmosphere, and reasonable prices, but the experience was marred by slow service, a lack of a menu, and an approach that risks appearing more arrogant than welcoming. With a little more attention, it could become a place I'd recommend without hesitation. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5

It was me, the sis, Jonny and the Papi and we had a good dinner, not much choice but fresh and quality products, however the service was not the best but all in all the food is worth it

We always return as soon as we can. It's located on the Giulianova seafront, where you can take lovely walks. A high-quality seafood restaurant. They offer a mix of various hot and cold appetizers, generous portions, and the first courses are truly delicious! We each had a half portion of paccheri rossi with seafood ragù (we were already full after the appetizer, and a half portion is equivalent to a large plate!), and our son had a half portion of gnocchi, which he enjoyed very much! The staff were very friendly and fast, and the service was excellent! And above all, the prices were reasonable (which has become a dream these days). In short, a guarantee!

Friendly and professional service. Fresh fish and fair prices. Definitely worth a try.

How to eat fresh fish at home, with friendliness and organization. Highly recommended.

Found this restaurant through reviews. I must say we really enjoyed it. Numerous delicious hot and cold appetizers, a special seafood chitarrina, excellent grilled fish, and delicious fried seafood. The cuisine is very delicate and not heavy. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Excellent choice in Giulianova. The atmosphere is that of an osteria. I must say, the staff are very professional. I found the table service (I was with two children, one of whom was small) to be very attentive. We started with a mixed hot and cold antipasti menu, which we immediately enjoyed. One of the children had seafood parcels, while the others had chitarrina (an excellent pasta dish they'd never had before), very light but tasty. The other son also had paccheri, but was already full from the antipasti he'd ordered from us. Everything was accompanied by pecorino white wine. A place we'll return to in the near future.

I'm still eating, but I'm sure of the final result...
