25/06/2025: Il Gabbiano di Montalto Marina
Il Gabbiano di Montalto Marina is a true pearl overlooking the sea, where taste meets quiet and the salty scent caresses every dish. At this time of year, with few tourists populating the beach, you can fully enjoy the peace and breathtaking beauty of the panorama: your gaze gets lost in the infinite blue, while the sea breeze accompanies every bite with harmony. The menu celebrates the authentic flavor of the sea, with simple dishes but rich in flavor. The supplì alla romana are truly superb: crunchy on the outside, stringy on the inside, with that intense flavor of tomato and love for tradition that makes them unforgettable. The fritto misto is a crunchy symphony, light and golden to the right point, which tells the freshness of the catch of the day. No off notes, only flavors that speak of sun, waves and authenticity.
The service is another strong point: kindness galore, sincere smiles and availability without forcing. You feel welcomed like an old friend, with an attention that makes the experience even more pleasant. The restaurant, simple but well-kept, enjoys a privileged position: eating a few meters from the beach is a rare privilege, and here you live every moment with gratitude and lightness.
Four well-deserved stars, with the promise that we will return soon. Because at Gabbiano you don't just eat well: you breathe the sea, you sip the sunset, you savor a little bit of real summer.
The only small regret? The absence of the old paper menu. Leafing through it is like opening a map of flavors, an invitation to a culinary adventure, with the names of the dishes that evoke images, memories, desires. The digital barcode, although practical, flattens the initial emotion a little, taking away that tactile and visual pleasure that makes the beginning of lunch an integral part of the journey.
…a Gabbiano
Silver wings brush the wind,
the seagull glides, without a care.
There is no border between the sky and the sea,
only the breath of the entire world.
A distant cry, clear and true,
breaks the silence, but does not disturb:
it is the voice of the eternal instant,
that welcomes everything and disturbs nothing.
Above the waves, master of quiet,
teaches those who watch to let go.
In his flight there is only now,
no beginning, no end, only the sea.
