Ristorante Il Pepenero In Cervia

Four of us came for dinner. When we arrived, it was relatively quiet, but within half an hour it was full. Despite the large number of guests, the service was super fast and friendly. The pizzas were first-class, and the fish was equally excellent! Wine selections ranged from inexpensive to gourmet, with something for everyone! A first-class evening, highly recommended.

We were there two nights in a row. The restaurant has an outdoor veranda and the staff are very kind, friendly, and helpful. We ate very well! The pizza was very good, but the fish dishes were also excellent. The fritto misto was amazing! I highly recommend it!

I went to Pepe Nero for the first time on Sunday. We had the €32 menu, which included seafood salad, but it was much better than usual. The mashed potato on the bottom made it special. The pasta was excellent, with seafood, and a generous amount of fried food! Sorbet was also included! A pleasant surprise. We'll definitely be back!

Highly recommended! Delicious pizzas, light and not at all heavy dough. Also recommended are the fried food and seafood entrees: the fried food was perfect, not greasy at all, and very tasty and plentiful. The staff was super helpful and professional. We'll definitely be back!

Our experience wasn't particularly exciting: the pizza was decent, but my less-than-good review is mainly due to the service. The waiter (the only man) who served us was extremely rude and unprofessional. A more polite attitude is needed to do that kind of work. I hope it was just a bad night.

We found Pepenero on TheFork (with a 20% discount) and, after seeing the reviews and photos of the very inviting dishes, we decided to give it a try. We were kindly welcomed by the staff, who seated us at a table on the outdoor veranda. The decor is reminiscent of a seafood tavern, with an indoor dining room and a covered terrace, and the restaurant is located right next to the Pinarella pine forest. Our orders were taken within minutes; we opted for two appetizers to share and a first course each, accompanied by water and house wine. After a short while, we were able to sample the appetizers—mussels Tarantina-style and scallops au gratin—and were amazed by both the quality and quantity of the dishes. The scallops were delicate and perfectly au gratin, while the mussels were served in a beautifully seasoned stew. But the confirmation came with the first courses: tagliolini allo scoglio and spaghetti with clams were exceptional, with plenty of seasoning and truly inimitable sauces. The portions were so generous that we were forced to take away the leftovers so as not to waste them! The menu is very varied, with fish, meat, and even pizza dishes. Despite the crowds, we managed to eat in a flash and without too much background noise. Friendly and helpful staff, fair prices, and excellent value are Pepenero's strong points. A pleasant discovery, we'll be back!

A shared fried food and two first courses. Good.

I happened upon it by chance on a rainy evening, and I was lucky. They were very kind enough to seat us even without a reservation, even though the place was practically full. The interior is simple, a bit retro. The food is good: I had the pizza and found it delicious. I was also seated right in front of the kitchen, so I appreciated how clean it was. The dishes I saw coming out were inviting and plentiful. I must say I envy the calm the chefs managed to maintain in the midst of a packed house. The place is simple, clean, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Overall, it exceeded my expectations. The only unexcused absence of the evening was the Braulio!!

Das Restaurant war sehr gut besucht, ich hatte jedoch Glück und musste trotzdem nicht lange auf einen Tisch warten. Ich bestellte eine Zusammenstellung von verschedenem Fisch mit Salat und eine Pizza quattro formaggi. Beides kam relativ zügig und schmeckte hervorragend. Auch der Service war sehr freundlich und so aufmerksam wie es ging, bei so viel Betrieb. Man kann schön draussen sitzen, am mittwoch ist dort immer Markt und man kann den Menschen beim schlendern zuschauen.

Mangiato una sera di aprile con la famiglia, che dire, tutto perfetto. Dal fritto croccantissimo e saporito alla grigliata di pesce sublime. Buonissima anche la spaghettata di vongole! Ci siamo trovati benissimo, nonostante fosse pieno i tempi d'attesa sono rimasti accettabili. Top.
