04/12/2024: siamo stati in questo locale perchè cercavamo un posto da provare ad ostia, il posto si trova un po addentrato in una piccola vietta, ma con il navigatore si raggiunge facilmente, non è sul lungomare ma cmq nella zona centrale di ostia.
il locale è curato e molto accogliente, piccolino e con una ottima cucina, noi abbiamo preso 3 primi due secondi e due antipasti, tutto veramente buonissimo e cucinato bene, l'unica nota sul calamaro ripieno che era piccolino e come secondo piatto con il prezzo che ha forse la porzione era meglio metterne due, combinazione di sapori buona e piacevole al palato.
prezzi in linea con la qualità del cibo.
sicuramente ci torneremo.
05/11/2024: We came here for lunch.
The menu is very varied and offers particular and different combinations from the usual.
We had two appetizers and two first courses.
The starters, raw scampi with fennel cream, liquorice and Jerusalem artichoke chips and smoked mackerel with pumpkin cream, oranges and amaretti crumble, were both very good and balanced; the only flaw is the pumpkin cream, very delicate and practically covered by the smoky taste of the fish. I really appreciated the pairing with the amaretti.
As for the first courses, we had chestnut gnocchi with prawns and parmesan fondue and linguine with broccoli, prawns, stracciatella and mandarin zest.
The linguine was excellent, one of the best fish first courses I have ever eaten, with quality pasta and perfectly balanced seasoning. I would add that they were not at all greasy, which is common in fish first courses without tomato sauce so as not to make them dry, as they were seasoned with a reduction of cooking water and prawns.
Unfortunately, the gnocchi disappointed us a bit, because the parmesan covered the flavor of the fish.
Friendly and helpful staff, very nice place.
Adequate prices for the portions and the quality of the raw materials.
