12/08/2025: There was something about this place that attracted me, perhaps its authenticity compared to others. I was with my wife and our son, who lives and works here during the summer. We were greeted by a very friendly islander, whose warmth made us feel immediately at ease, as if we were at home. We didn't have a huge appetite, so we decided to just order some first courses. I opted for spaghetti alla chitarra with octopus, my wife chose penne all'arrabbiata, and my son had the classic tortellini with meat sauce. While we waited, the friendly gentleman who welcomed us kept us company, bringing us delicious bread. In less than fifteen minutes, the dishes were already on our table. My spaghetti was a real surprise. I expected a meat sauce, but instead I found pieces of octopus in a sauce fragrant with fresh cherry tomatoes. A simple but extremely tasty dish, which I happily polished off, mopping up the sauce with the legendary "scarpetta" (bread). My wife's penne had just the right touch of chili pepper, while my son's tortellini were generous and rich in ragù, so much so that they also required a generous mopping up of the sauce. With a glass of white wine, water, and coffee, the bill came to between €50 and €60. A more than reasonable price, given that the first courses were so generous (the octopus pieces were worthy of a second course) that they filled us completely. The setting is rustic and welcoming, with the open kitchen creating a convivial atmosphere. Our host's hospitality was the icing on the cake. If I have the chance to return, this place will be my first choice.
