An absolute guarantee. Consistent quality and excellent seafood.
We returned to Carmine's for a family dinner and, as always, we were reassured that this place is a must-try for those seeking excellent seafood. Their consistency in the quality of their ingredients and service is admirable.
The experience started off great with the two house mixed appetizers. It's a beautifully structured menu, offering a series of hot and cold tastings where the ingredients take center stage. Dishes are clean in flavor, never overpowered by excessive seasoning, ranging from the delicacy of local seafood to more delicious traditional seafood dishes, all served with perfect timing. The freshness of the fish is evident in every bite.
The highlight of the evening were the first courses, all executed with remarkable technical precision. For our little girl, we ordered gnocchi with scampi in tomato sauce: the pasta had the perfect consistency, and the rich, creamy sauce was perfectly balanced for a child's tastes, so much so that she swiped it all up in no time. The marinara risotto was a real surprise, impeccably creamed, with perfectly separated grains and an intense aroma of the sea. The spaghetti with clams was also top-notch: pasta decidedly al dente, bound together by a perfect emulsion, flavorful and without a trace of sand.
We finished by sharing a mixed Adriatic fry between three: dry, crispy, and very light. To drink, we had a half liter of house white wine, chilled and delicious throughout the dinner.
The atmosphere is welcoming and refined, and the staff stands out for their professionalism, never stiff, with an old-fashioned attention to detail, even for the children. The bill was absolutely fair for the quality of the dinner.
We always come back and continue to recommend it.

A friend from Bologna recommended it to me, and I have to admit, he pointed me to the perfect place for my tastes. If we return to Montesilvano next year, we'll definitely drive the 20 minutes back to visit you again.

Welcoming atmosphere, as well as the attentive staff. The owner-chef is also present in the dining room, and I particularly like this. The connection is immediate and adds value to the evening. Top-notch food. Great variety of hot and cold raw dishes. The "minestra" is romantic. The roast is authentic. The wine cellar is immense. Well done everyone.

We've been eating here for several years and it's never disappointed us. The fish is excellent, the service is equally good, the place is well-kept and really nice, and the price is fair for what you get.

I went to this restaurant for the first time, recommended by a few people. I was pleasantly surprised! The dishes were excellent and well-served, and the owner was very kind and accommodated all my requests. I had the fish-filled crepes, which were truly delicious! The fish appetizer was delicious, and the dessert was amazing. The atmosphere was very refined.
Excellent service.
I will definitely be back.
