24/09/2025: This review reflects my personal taste and the experience my partner and I had during a relaxing evening at L'Angolo DiVino, a historic restaurant on Via dei Volsci in Latina.
Ambience:
The restaurant presents itself as it always has, with furnishings that may seem a bit dated today and perhaps could use a touch of modernity. Despite this, the atmosphere remains familiar and welcoming, with tables comfortable enough for a relaxing evening.
Food:
Rightly famous for its crostini, we tried the lardo and pecorino and the stracciatella and anchovy crostini: excellent, a flavorful start. Next, a portion (for two) of veal with tuna sauce: well-cooked, tender, and pleasant, perhaps a little salty (I would have appreciated a touch more with the addition of capers), but still finished down to the last bit.
For our main course, we chose the off-menu dish of the day: beef cheek stew with mashed potatoes. The meat was perfectly cooked, tender and melting; the sauce was intense, with spicy notes of cinnamon and juniper berries, again slightly salty to my taste. The mashed potatoes, rustic and freshly made, were the perfect accompaniment.
To conclude, the typical local biscuits: simple yet comforting, a traditional finish.
Wines:
The restaurant's true highlight. The wide selection of local and national labels is immediately striking: the walls lined with bottles inspire curiosity and exploration. We chose a 2022 Teroldego, a fine companion, perhaps a little on the expensive side but worthy of the evening.
Service:
Fast, perhaps even too fast: the courses arrived with little pause between each one, but it must be said that there were only a few of us in the restaurant at the beginning of the dinner. The person who served us was discreet and prompt; a little more friendliness would have made the service even more pleasant. Worth noting was the handling of a small error in the bill: it was resolved promptly, with courtesy and a mutual smile. That always makes a difference.
Price:
A bit high: for two, sharing part of the appetizer, the main course, and the dessert, we spent almost €80. Perhaps the bill was more expensive than the dishes, but overall the experience was positive.
In conclusion, it was a lovely evening, with good food, pleasant wine, and a fairly relaxed atmosphere. Despite a few details that could be improved and the slightly above-average price, we will definitely return.

We were amazed by the taste and presentation of the dishes, I recommend it!
