Ristorante Castello D'Abruzzo In Ripa teatina

Beautiful location in the Castelletto, excellent food, very fresh fish cooked with care and imagination. Kind and attentive staff. Top!

Despite the beautiful location, we did not find the same satisfaction in the quality of the dishes and the presence of fresh fish. Many dishes were already prepared and we perceived defrosted fish, raw foods not orderable (only oysters), non-existent desserts (only ready-made sorbet). There is no written menu, but it is still available on the fork, advantageous with the fork (-50%), but we certainly will not return.

We ended up here by chance through the recommendations of an app, curious to discover new places, and we actually found ourselves in front of a castle, a truly beautiful location! Attentive and courteous service. We all ordered the hot and cold appetizers, each one better than the last, very fresh fish accompanied by special sauces! The combinations were all perfect; I even ate the anchovies, which I don't like. Personally, I was already full with those, but I also ordered the fried fish: the calamari was a bit too dry. But the rest of the mixed fish was really fresh with all the aromas of the sea. The very generous portion meant I had to give in. We'll definitely be back, and this time I'll also order the raw fish.

Second visit and excellent again. A quaint place, a welcoming atmosphere, and very friendly staff. The food is meticulously prepared, and the ingredients are undoubtedly top-quality. A good selection of local wines.
