Osteria Sud e Terre Lontane In Avetrana

A very quaint restaurant, you eat outdoors in a charming alley, lit mostly by street lights, which contributes to a simple yet pleasant atmosphere. Tables are set with paper tablecloths, and the service is very friendly and efficient. The menu is varied, offering a choice of appetizers, first courses, and second courses, both seafood and meat. The flavorful and crispy fried foods are also delicious. We tried some more unusual options, such as the fried mussels and zucchini flowers (a portion of 6-7 pieces for 8 euros, perhaps a bit pricey). The portions are generally generous. We were less impressed with the tuna tartare: the pieces were a bit coarse, and I've certainly had better. The prices are fairly reasonable, especially considering the quality. At the end of the meal, we were offered an excellent homemade fennel liqueur. On a very negative note: the cover charge, in such an informal setting, is truly out of place and leaves one perplexed. Overall, a positive experience, but with a few details that could be improved.

A family-run restaurant in the heart of Avetrana. It deserves more than 5 stars! The hospitality is excellent, like dining with friends, but that doesn't mean the professionalism is lacking—quite the opposite! Courtesy and knowledge. A charming, movie-like location, tables along the street, lights, plants, all on a street right in the center. The food began with fried mussels and breaded anchovies, two delicious courses, the fried food perfectly cooked with zero excess oil, followed by orecchiette with tomato and cacioricotta, a flavor reminiscent of grandma's dishes! The chicken breast was tender and beautifully seasoned, and finally, one of the best tiramisu I've ever had. I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful evening we spent with you, and congratulations! Highly recommended. Reservations recommended.

A very nice place in the alleys of Avetrana's historic center. We ordered two first courses and a second course. The food was excellent and the portions generous. The prices were fair. We'll be back.

Love the place! Highly recommended!

We recently dined there with our 3-year-old son. It's a charming place, literally dining in an open-air street lit by overhead lights that create an atmosphere of times gone by. Unfortunately, the food doesn't quite match the setting. There are some excellent dishes, like the tuna tartare, and others lacking in soul, like the peppered mussels. We also found the prices a bit excessive for what they offer. We were certainly happy to experience an open-air dinner in such a unique setting, and we must also say they were very kind in finding us a table even after we booked at the last minute.

Very good dinner, a little small in portions, especially the peppered mussels, which were very good but very few mussels... the price was right.

After having "tasted" everything and more. ......I felt light and not at all weighed down: thanks to the ingredients and the cooking of the owner Mrs. Rossana. Variety, lightness and very fast, surprising service.

I found it simply wonderful. The staff were kind and friendly, and the dishes were delicious and flavorful, featuring innovative recipes created by the chef. The restaurant is located in a very picturesque alley in the village of Avetrana, behind the Torrione and the church. It was truly a wonderful evening!!! We'll definitely be back!
