“Corso Stretto” was a truly pleasant discovery: a small but meticulously crafted restaurant with just a few tables, so reservations are recommended. The menu is refined, innovative without compromising on tradition, and the dishes are always beautifully presented.
We tried: artisanal rigatoni with ricotta, sausage, and truffle: excellent. The gnocchi with pumpkin, porcini mushrooms, and stracciatella were also very good. The suckling pig with truffles and chicory was equally impressive. To finish, the gianduia fondant—original and delicious—and a lemon tartlet, beautiful to look at and delicious.
The prices are fair, especially considering the central location.

A refined and authentic gastronomic experience in the heart of L'Aquila. Corso Stretto stands out for its attention to detail, welcoming atmosphere, and cuisine that surprises with balance and personality.
The dishes tell a story of local tradition and passion: the pasta, perfectly al dente, wrapped in an intense and harmonious sauce, reveals a masterful selection of ingredients and a profound respect for tradition. Each bite is a journey through authentic flavors and balanced combinations, where nothing is left to chance.
The desserts, however, deserve a special mention. The lactose-free creations, entirely homemade, are a true triumph of taste and technique. Gianduja chocolate blends with a velvety rum cream in a play of textures and aromas that captivates from the first bite: measured sweetness, elegant aromas, and a balance that speaks the language of fine pastry making.
An unmissable address for those seeking sincere yet refined cuisine, capable of moving with simplicity and leaving you wanting to return.

A treat for everyone, even those of us with celiac disease.
Top-quality dishes. Almost everything is gluten-free.
Excellent service, very kind staff.
The only flaw? The smell of fried food on your clothes, but for everything else, 10 out of 10!
I will definitely be back, and I'll be happy to.

An elegant and welcoming restaurant, impeccable service, and truly friendly staff. The first courses are meticulously crafted, with balanced flavors and quality ingredients, while the second courses are surprising in their taste and presentation. You can sense passion and attention in every detail.
One small point: the ventilation system could be improved, as the cooking smells sometimes linger in the air.
Overall, however, an excellent restaurant, highly recommended!

Excellent food, naturally quality ingredients! Very good service!
The desserts aren't up to par with the appetizers, first courses, and second courses! They need improvement to be impeccable!

This place was recommended to us, rightly so, by locals during a social event, and I think I'll never tire of thanking them. We had a perfect dinner; everything we ordered was completely satisfying. The highlight was the friendly wait staff, always ready to accommodate any request, and the wine selection was excellent. It's easy to get to, as it's located on the narrow part of the main street near the luminous fountain. My heartfelt compliments to the entire staff.

One of the best restaurants in the area, if not the best.

A beautiful and relaxing place, the waiters are incredibly kind, polite, and professional, and the food deserves top marks. I'll definitely be back. However, some of the negative comments are truly disgusting.
