Restaurant 'I Gelsi' In Macerata

Top restaurant both for the excellent and quality food and for the very friendly and kind personal service, all really excellent and I highly recommend it

Terrible experience for the service received. We had booked for 1-1.30pm, but upon arrival we learned that the restaurant would close at 2.30pm. This was not communicated to us when booking. So we had to eat in a hurry, without even having time to get a coffee.

Everything is good, the portions are a little small, but for me, who doesn't eat much, everything is perfect 👍

Pranzo domenicale con amici: buona la qualità del cibo, dagli antipasti ai primi passando per la carne. L’unica nota negativa è stata l’eccessivo pressing sui tempi…fin dall’arrivo al ristorante siamo stati invitati ad accomodarci quanto prima per iniziare il pranzo, e anche durante il pranzo stesso abbiamo percepito una presenza un po’ pressante sui tempi, idem sul finale quando siamo stati sollecitati ad ordinare i dolci per poter finire in breve e liberare il tavolo. Un po’ più di rilassatezza sicuramente farebbe godere meglio il pranzo agli ospiti, per il resto nulla da eccepire.

A beautiful experience, local cuisine with a touch of quality and attention out of the ordinary, in a clean and well-kept location.

Restaurant in the countryside offering local cuisine, visited for dinner in August. To reach the place you need to leave the main streets and travel the last few hundred meters on an unpaved but very straight road without unpleasant surprises, thus crossing a few fields to the right and left until you reach the entrance, where you you can park in a parking area inside the property. The restaurant is located in an old farmhouse with a garden, for this evening the tables were set outside, under some strings of yellow lights. We order two appetizers, a local classic that is crescia and chicory and then some courgette spaghetti which turned out to be really interesting and fun. As the main course we took green gnocchi which were simple, good and plentiful. In closing two desserts, the latter also appreciated. Definitely promoted food! Two-speed service, in the room there is a woman who runs back and forth and does her best; an elderly gentleman who, unfortunately, just isn't there, supports her, slowing down the entire service a bit for the forty or so seats present. A very interesting note: we had the clear feeling of being the only tourists among a total of local people, we are always pleased to be able to find places that are also experienced by local people!

Personale gentile e cordiale. Piatti stratosferici: gustosi e porzioni abbondanti. Lo straconsiglio e ci tornerei assolutamente!

A romantic place to dine under the stars. Refined dishes and attentive service.

Wonderful place and really great food. Really super recommended.

All very good, excellent quality/price, the environment is truly evocative, delicious meat accompanied by excellent Marche wine and finally a delicious dessert. A must for meat lovers
