We had a terrific dinner here even though we didn’t have a reservation. They made me a vegetarian option specially, which was delicious and nicely presented. I requested salad as a starter, but they also brought succulent bruschetta. The bread they used as the same as the “cover”bread, but toasted and topped with tomatoes and olive oil. I didn’t ask for it, but it was very welcome, and made it seem like a meal, rather than something makeshift.
My husband’s fish antipasti looked amazing and comprised of squid, fish cakes, and tuna, which was especially good according to husband. Again, beautifully presented. He then had cheese filled Ravioli and tomato-y meat sauce plus choice of grilled fish with chips (he could have had salad instead of chips). His fish was surprising to me, because it wasn’t simply fish. The fish itself was topped with smoky tomato and olive sauce. I can personally confirm that the olives were delicious! His Set Menu of 3 courses plus a little jug of wine and a small bottle of water and coffee came to €35, which was very good value for the quality and quantity of ingredients. It was a lot of food.
My main course was a huge plate of pasta with pesto. Simply the tuna pasta dish elsewhere on the menu without the tuna, but it goes to show what happens when the chefs know how to cook and take pride in what they do. It was delicious. They wanted to make it nice for me, even though they don’t have vegetarian options listed on the menu.
I am grateful to our waitress, because I would not have asked for a special dish. I probably would have made do with salad and chips. It was her creativity and the restaurant’s generosity which made it a lovely meal. We had no idea what my dinner would cost. There was no A La Carte Menu, and they could have said anything. €50 for our meal for two was reasonable and honest.
It’s obvious why it’s better to book, but you can always try a walk up. They aren’t taking for reservations out of pretention. The place was full of locals and obviously could get very busy. We were warmly welcomed by the chef as we came in and the staff could not have been nicer. We are so glad we made the effort. Such a delightful place in terms of the actual food and the attitude of the people. Please try them!
Be aware that when you come here, the menu is entirely in Italian, and rightly so. This place is not a tourist trap. Come prepared with a translation app or menu decoder phrases. Staff spoke some English and French.
Un locale semplice ma dove si mangia un'ottima pizza e con una buona qualità del cibo proposto. Vengono proposti vari menù completi ad un ottimo prezzo. Gentilezza e professionalità del servizio. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.
