Trattoria dal Marinaio In Terracina

08/10/2025: I already knew the place before Covid and I had a good idea, now after years that idea has remained, the place and the food did not disappoint, indeed I was even more satisfied with the portions and the good cuisine, family management with a very welcoming owner and a very sociable wife, a highly recommended place for those who love to eat, normal prices.

01/10/2025: We were in the area for my daughter's horse riding competition, and while searching for a delicious place on Google Maps, I came across this grill restaurant. The photos looked good. This restaurant, specializing in meat, fully met my expectations. The atmosphere is welcoming and family-friendly, as is the staff, who were very friendly and approachable. The large glass counter allows you to choose the type and cut of meat—a real treat for someone like me who loves to choose what to eat. We wanted to try some good local olive oil, and the owner very kindly offered us some from his personal supply to enjoy with their special, soft focaccia. We dined inside, overlooking the brazier, where, over a warm flame, they expertly cooked us a fillet, a slice of steak, and a chicken, just as we requested. They were among the best we've ever tasted. The appetizers, featuring freshly sliced ​​mixed cured meats, were excellent, as were the first courses, which were delicious. I personally tried the mezzemaniche (at my express request) alla amatriciana, and they were excellent, with the flavor of the authentic, thick passata and crispy guanciale, just the way I like it. Roast potatoes and grilled vegetables accompanied the excellent meal, along with a glass of excellent local red wine from a bottle they opened on the spot. The price was perfectly in line with the quality, quantity, and service. It's definitely worth a second visit, and we'll probably return for a lunch outing.
