Ristorante La Risacca In Grottammare

07/04/2026: For lunch on Easter Monday, a tasting menu. A generous appetizer began with a plate of cured meats accompanied by bruschetta with oil and salt. A very delicate Russian salad sphere and cabbage and carrot salad. Grilled pancetta and crostini with sausage. Crepe with meat and cheese. I was already full. Two first courses: tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms (probably preserved in oil), which weren't very exciting, and rigatoni with tomato sauce, which was good but too al dente. Two second courses: chicken cacciatore (a free-range dish that was a bit too tough) and lamb stewed with cabbage. They were good, but lacked a bit of salt, while there was plenty of pepper. Mixed salads were well-seasoned and varied to match the two dishes, one enriched with celery, the other with orange and apple, ideal for a fresh touch. Roast potatoes were rejected because we wouldn't have eaten them. A taste of Ascoli olives and homemade cremini. To conclude, a trio of desserts: a semifreddo, panna cotta, and an excellent zuppa inglese. We only ordered one portion to sample. Two bottles of water. We didn't order wine. They offered a liqueur. We finished with a coffee. Quick and attentive service. The price was proportionate to the quantity but not quite the quality. For those who already knew the place and could take away any leftovers, dinner was already prepared. Unfortunately, it won't be added to our list of favorite restaurants.
