Piccolo Paradiso da Mario's Restaurant, Peschici: Enchanting Views and Welcoming Service
The unparalleled highlight of this restaurant is undoubtedly the breathtaking view of the Peschici Bay, which makes every dinner, especially at sunset, a charming and romantic experience. The atmosphere is simple and informal.
The menu offers cuisine focused on fresh seafood and the flavors of the Gargano. We particularly enjoyed the carefully prepared pasta dishes and grilled fish and meat. The pizzeria is also a good option.
Special praise goes to the service: the team was friendly, courteous, and helpful with all guests, helping to create a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.
Those planning to reach the restaurant by car should be aware that, especially in high season, parking in the immediate vicinity can be extremely difficult. We recommend planning your arrival well in advance.

In Peschici the last week of August, looking for a nice place for dinner on our last night, trusting the reviews we chose this restaurant. The room with a table with a spectacular view of the bay, 5 stars for sure. The service was poor (we ordered 1 liter of sparkling white wine... we received still white wine... we first pointed it out to one waitress and nothing... then to the other and nothing... then she came back to tell us they had that! Fine... but maybe they should have mentioned it when we ordered it, right?). The fact of seeing the fireplace outside the room, where they cook the fish, had raised good expectations... which however were not met. Good flavors, but nothing special. Portions: for the first courses (spaghetti with clams) ok... for the second courses (prawns, mixed grill, mixed fried fish) we have found better in other places. It's a shame because for the location it's worth it. For 4 people (1 starter, 2 first courses, 3 second courses, 1 litre of wine, 1 water and 2 cokes) we paid €142.00 including 4 place settings at €2.50 each.

Very friendly staff, good food (in my opinion, the best pizza by the lake) at a fair price, and a great view! I've been coming back for years!👍🫶🏼

Beautiful location with a terrace where you can enjoy the sunset and the view of the entire bay. The food was average; we didn't have a bad time, but I wasn't thrilled with the seafood troccoli.

We remember the restaurant from a few years ago, had a wonderful meal with a wonderful view of the Adriatic Sea, and talked to the family about their grandchildren. 🥰 A very nice family. We'd be happy to return. Highly recommended!

We dined at this restaurant during our vacation in Peschici.
Dinner at sunset on a beautiful terrace overlooking the sea.
Delicious seafood first courses and one of the best mixed fried fish dishes we've ever tasted.
Courteous and polite staff, tidy and clean.
Good prices and value for money.
Highly recommended.
