Ristorante da Ciro ò Turres In San marzano sul sarno

It was my first time at this restaurant in my hometown, and it was a pleasant surprise: impeccably clean, open kitchen, excellent fish for both the first and second courses. The service was also good. Prices were slightly higher than average, but as we all know, quality comes at a price. Recommended!

Excellent place, very good food, excellent staff and service, try it and believe it

Located in San Marzano Sul Sarno, Ristorante Da Ciro al Mare is a gem for seafood lovers, where a passion for seafood cuisine blends with the warm welcome of a family-run business. Owner Ciro is the beating heart of the restaurant: with his infectious smile and attentive service, he makes everyone feel at home. In the kitchen, chef Pasquale creates dishes that celebrate the freshness of local seafood, combining tradition with a touch of creativity. The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, with a dining room decorated in a nautical style that makes every meal a sensory experience. The tasting menu is a journey through the flavors of the Mediterranean: from the raw antipasti, featuring impeccable oysters and red prawns, to the seafood scialatielli, cooked to perfection and topped with a sauce that enhances the flavor of the fish. The shellfish risotto is another highlight, creamy and balanced, while the fritto misto is surprising for its lightness and crunchiness. Pasquale demonstrates a unique mastery in respecting the ingredients, without ever overpowering them with excessive seasoning. Ciro's wine selection offers local and national labels that pair perfectly with the dishes, with always spot-on recommendations. The service is attentive and friendly, although during busy periods there may be a short wait, which is quickly forgotten thanks to the quality of the food. One note: some courses, such as the desserts, could be more innovative to match the quality of the main courses. Da Ciro al Mare is a must-visit for those seeking fresh seafood, a welcoming atmosphere, and the passion of two professionals like Ciro and Pasquale. Highly recommended.
