Peppinella In L'aquila

28/04/2026: After a very long time, I'm back to review a restaurant... where I've finally rediscovered the atmosphere of a family-friendly, quiet place where you eat truly well—simple, delicious, and carefully prepared food. Congratulations to all the staff and management of this restaurant. See you soon.

18/04/2026: On my way to L'Aquila, I chose this place on Maps for lunch, and I have to say the average rating is spot on. The dining room is a bit retro but well-kept, and they have an outdoor area that they set up when the weather permits. The bathrooms are clean. We had two first courses: I had a fettuccine with veal ragù, well-seasoned and tasty, and my wife had a sort of cappellacci (I don't remember the name), which were simply amazing. The portions were generous, so we finished with a portion of sautéed vegetables, a melt-in-the-mouth tart, both very good, and two coffees. A very friendly and pleasant young man served us, and the owner was equally friendly. The bill was more than fair, despite the verbal menu, which I usually dislike, coming in at just over €30 in total. We had such a good time that we'll be heading back from Naples to try more.
