Trattoria FIGARO In Esine

22/03/2026: A truly enjoyable experience at Trattoria Santellone, especially the Saturday aperitif, which stands out. There's no classic chaotic buffet where everyone serves themselves, but rather an organized service: you go to the counter and they serve your dishes, which you then conveniently carry to your table. A smart, more organized and hygienic formula that avoids confusion and makes everything much more enjoyable. The atmosphere is typical of a trattoria, warm and welcoming, well-maintained, and with an authentic atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at ease. The quality of the food is excellent: truly spectacular risottos and local appetizers prepared with taste and great care. An aperitif unlike any other, well-organized, and of high quality. Highly recommended. Well done.

19/03/2026: We visited this place on Sunday evening for an aperitif dinner. It costs €15 for a drink and an aperitif buffet; any additional drinks are charged at the regular price. The varied and constantly replenished buffet includes appetizers, finger food, and both hot and cold first and second courses. I found the chicken and artichoke salad particularly good. The staff, both at the bar and the buffet staff, were very kind and helpful. Personally, I had a great time and would happily return.
