My wife and I have been to this restaurant several times in recent years. We love returning because it's close to where we live, the owner and his staff are always very kind and courteous, the atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing, you feel very pampered, in short, it's really good. The food, however, is almost always a mixed bag. Given that it's not a cheap restaurant, you'd expect to eat very well, or at least that the classic spaghetti with clams would be much better than what I can make myself at home. However, this isn't often the case. Within the same dinner, there are noteworthy dishes, such as marinated anchovies (wow), and then linguine cacio e pepe di mare, where you can't taste the sea at all but only the cheese, the fantastic tuna meatball (wow), and stuffed squid that never arrived.
I've always wondered when I go to a high-end restaurant how much of my money is actually split between the ambiance (personal setting) and the quality of the food. I'd prefer the latter to be given priority, but I realize that's probably not the case. I mean, I can pay €30 for a plate of spaghetti with clams, but when I leave, damn, I wish I could say, "Wow, that's amazing!"
Anyway, it's still a good restaurant.
Good work

Locale molto gradevole, personale accogliente e molto empatico, efficiente e ben organizzato. Nonostante il locale fosse pieno abbiamo avuto tempi di attesa assolutamente fisiologici. I piatti ben fatti, trattano la materia prima, di buona qualità, in modo originale e la rendono gustosa esaltando i sapori del pesce. Ottimo il polpo croccante coi carciofi. Prezzo non proprio economico ma in linea con i livelli attuali (un antipasto e un piatto con vino e dessert 60€ a persona). Difetto, grave, le porzioni ridottissime, da fame. Perciò quattro punti e non cinque per questa recensione.
