Ristorante il Gabbiano Marotta In Fano

Unfortunately, things in Marotta aren't what they used to be. The classics of the past have gotten too big for their reputations, and, imitating the great chefs, they offer "creative" menus that have nothing creative about them except the tiny portions for the high prices. Fortunately, Il Gabbiano is still here. Here, you can still feel the atmosphere of a classic fish trattoria. The staff is very quick and helpful. The portions are truly generous, and the quality is more than in line with the restaurant's style: mussels Taranto-style or all'arrabbiata, amazing first courses, fried and roasted dishes, all strictly without the frills that are in fashion these days, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity. One consolation is walking back after dinner and noticing that Il Gabbiano was packed to the rafters, while many other "starred" restaurants on the seafront weren't even at half capacity... think about it, restaurateurs, think about it!!!!

I've only been to the restaurant. This place is marked as a favorite, and I've decided to return again and again. Unpretentious, but down-to-earth. Lots of delicious fish, with old-fashioned prices to suit everyone's budget. A sincere and special place in its simplicity.

Best meal I’ve had in a long time, and I’ve been eating a lot of good meals! Truly amazing.

Excellent food, very abundant dishes, excellent staff, phenomenal cook, owner a great character, not recommended, highly recommended, if you pass by here I highly recommend stopping, I forgot something important, modest prices for everyone, and I assure you that you will leave full 💪

For a half-night stay, if you don't have any special requirements, it's more than adequate (they don't serve breakfast). The room was clean and comfortable. The restaurant was top-notch. Easter lunch featured an excellent seafood menu. The staff was friendly and attentive. My special compliments go to the waitress Ambra, who was very kind, polite, and professional. I give her 5 stars.

A very warm welcome. Convenient location, just steps from the sea. Easy access, close to the Adriatic motorway. Excellent value for money at the restaurant.

Excellent dishes, fast service, reasonable prices

If you are a group of friends go there, maybe don't expect great things but you will definitely laugh

I didn't stay overnight; I'm reviewing the restaurant. The location is ugly, on the highway, and the place is decidedly old-fashioned. The seafood dishes, however, are very good. I haven't tried the pasta dishes (which I will), but aside from the mussels, you can taste the quality and freshness of the catch in everything you eat. Be careful with portions, because while prices are generally average for the season, you should keep in mind that a single portion (of anything) can feed at least two people. So, if you plan ahead when you order, the value for money becomes truly exceptional.

A restaurant with excellent seafood dishes, generous portions for true seafood connoisseurs, and excellent service...
