Pizzeria Panarea In San benedetto del tronto

29/03/2026: Excellent restaurant, you eat well

21/03/2026: The restaurant is aesthetically pleasing and well-kept, with a lovely atmosphere, albeit somewhat hampered by the cold in the dining room. It must be said that the restaurant was completely empty: the fact that it was out of season likely didn't help either the atmosphere or the service. We tried octopus with potatoes, paccheri allo scoglio (paccheri with seafood), and spaghetti with clams. The octopus was well-executed and tasty. The paccheri, however, arrived decidedly too al dente, bordering on undercooked. The spaghetti with clams was barely adequate, both in flavor and quantity. The wine by the glass was good, but the bread served was dry, probably from the day before. At the end of the meal, after paying, we reported the paccheri's overcooking: we were told that this was a deliberate decision by the kitchen. A legitimate position, but not very customer-oriented. Total bill of €54 for two first courses, a second course, water, a glass of wine, and two coffees: a fair price. Overall, a decent experience. Excellent base and location, but more attention is needed on the cuisine, service, and experience management, especially when the place is empty.
