Ristorante Rugantino In Formia

16/08/2024: The Il Granchio restaurant in Terracina offers a culinary experience that borders on perfection. I had the pleasure of dining here with a couple of friends who knew the property, and from the start the atmosphere was simply impeccable. The location is extremely suggestive, with a breathtaking view of the sea which adds a magical touch to the whole evening. The menu exceeded all expectations. The raw starters were amazing; it was like rediscovering the authentic flavors of the sea after years. The quality of the fish was exceptional, very fresh and expertly prepared. The first courses, including a parmesan-filled pasta and a clam gnocco, were delicious and well-balanced. The monkfish, cooked to perfection, melted in your mouth. And the chocolate dessert that concluded the dinner was a true masterpiece, an explosion of flavors. A truly unique ritual of the restaurant is the arrival, at the end of dinner, of the mortadella with focaccia after the coffee, a touch of originality that makes the experience even more memorable. The staff proved to be extremely professional and kind, and the owners convey a genuine passion for their work. Super recommended.

20/07/2024: Il ristorante è bello, la mise en place anche, i camerieri sono molto bravi e che ne dicano gli altri commenti, il pesce è fresco. La verità è che costa molto, mediamente 35/40euro a piatto con punte fi 90€ per gran crudo e catalana. A proposito di catalana, lasciate stare, il prezzo non vale la candela, meglio i piatti 'normali'. La mortadella è focaccia offerta dopo i dolci non l'ho capita. 35minuti di attesa per il conto, chiesto 3 volte. Forse ci torneremo ma scegliendo con più attenzione le portate. Avendo speso 250euro a coppia, mi sarei aspettato molto di meglio. PS: menzione particolare per alcuni avventori di un trucido allucinante
