Ristorante Piccolo Teatro In Ascoli piceno

A truly wonderful experience, for sure. It's an intimate, family-run establishment in a 19th-century style—as the name suggests—focused on the quality of the food and excellent service rather than the number of customers; so reservations 📞 are highly recommended. The local specialties were perfect: from the spaghetti alla Dolce Amatrice 🍝 to the dessert, the Cupola d'Ascoli 🧁, filled with the iconic Anisetta 🍾. The meat dishes are also excellent, with refined options like the lamb stew 🥩 and pork cheek 🥓 seasoned with balsamic onions 🧅, accompanied by standard vegetable side dishes... 🥔🍆🍅 The only negative: the spaghetti was too al dente! I recommend not cooking them as long as strictly necessary ⏲️, since the pasta is already tending towards the tough side... The sauce, I repeat, is "the best", but it took a set of teeth 🦷🦷 still as firm as ours to chew them. The waiting times were completely tolerable despite the crowd, so a few extra minutes won't spoil the pleasure of enjoying perfectly cooked pasta... 😊

There's no point in wasting time..... If you don't go, you don't know what you're missing..... Quality..... Courtesy......and I won't add anything else so as not to ruin the surprise.... Giulia, you are UNIQUE

Lovely place. Good, refined food. Knowledgeable staff. Average prices.

A pleasant discovery in the heart of Ascoli Piceno's historic center. The first word that comes to mind is "care!" Careful preparation and presentation of the dishes, and careful selection of ingredients. Authentic flavors rooted in local tradition. Served by the very kind Maria Chiara, who makes you feel pampered and at home. Highly recommended!

A restaurant in the center of Ascoli Piceno of the HIGHEST CLASS AND QUALITY. The atmosphere is small, warm, and welcoming. The cuisine is amazing. The owner/waitress is classy and passionate, yet discreet. Highly recommended!

I've tried several first and second courses, and they're truly excellent. The atmosphere is relaxing.

A small restaurant, but meticulously maintained. The staff was professional and friendly, even suggesting activities in the city. Even the seemingly simplest dishes always had an unexpected twist, yet were balanced and delicious. The attention to detail is on par with top-tier restaurants, yet the portions were still generous. We had a wonderful time, and the bill was definitely reasonable. Highly recommended!

A gem in Ascoli Piceno with high-quality dishes. A must-visit, unbeatable value for money.

Perhaps a small theater, but definitely a great restaurant! From the moment you arrive, you feel at ease: a warm welcome, friendly staff, and a truly superb setting. The menu is simple, but everything is very well chosen. You can feel a real passion in the kitchen, with carefully prepared dishes bursting with flavor. A particular highlight this evening was an antipasto: dates stuffed with gorgonzola cream, wrapped in a thin slice of coppa and delicately grilled… a real treat!

Quality food in a comfortable setting. Friendly and helpful staff.
