08/12/2025: Excellent restaurant with very fast service and attentive to customer needs.

14/01/2026: First time here, and I must say with regret, I'm disappointed. We hope to return and change our minds. The many positive reviews make me think the staff is having a bad day. It can happen, so I'll be happy to change my review. For now, I hope this helps. The location is nice, but the wait staff was a little less so, let's say aseptic. There were two of them: a man who seemed a little angry, very quiet and minimal, and a woman who was more inclined to serve and smile. Even the grill man seemed very taciturn and perhaps a little angry; in fact, we thought they might have argued among themselves... Well, let's leave personal impressions aside. Let's just say that in a hospitality business, if this isn't there, something is missing. So, let's just say we didn't like the atmosphere. The food... No, we absolutely didn't like the food. The worst thing was the way the meat was cooked, even though we chose very simple meats like arrosticini and lamb. The lamb was too dry, especially the leg. The arrosticini, on the other hand, were truly inedible, I'm so sorry to say. They kept coming back all day and into the evening, and we all had the taste that kept coming back to us until the next morning. The first course... We had a gricia, if I'm not mistaken, without the beef tartare. It was good, but the lemon zest without the tartare destroyed the flavor of the gricia cream. The seasonal mixed salad... The seasonal mixed salad is not a mixed salad made with lettuce, radicchio, and carrot sliders, it's something else entirely. It's made with seasonal wild herbs. What you're serving is a mixed salad. I hope you'll review the name or ingredients so you can be clear with the customer who orders. The bill... High, yes, really high for the quality-price ratio, but I repeat what I said at the beginning of the review: perhaps the staff had a bad day. If I had eaten well and experienced a welcoming atmosphere, I wouldn't have complained about the price. There is one important thing, however, that absolutely needs to be pointed out. A plate of gricia with beef tartare that you sell for €16 cannot cost the same as a plate of gricia without the beef tartare. You know very well that in the first place, the food price is mainly due to the beef tartare, so if a customer asks for gricia without the tartare, the price can't be the same. Obviously, this is always my opinion. I'll close with a quote from Totò in the movie Totò Coming to America: "A girl with almond-shaped eyes, a cherry-shaped mouth, and peach cheeks. She's not a greengrocer, is she? Well! As long as she doesn't have a potato nose and a pear-shaped head."

09/01/2026: I’ve been coming to Zio for years and I have to say this has been the very best. The chef is touched by the God Chef. Yes, it is a destination restaurant and not easy to find and located in not the best of Abruzzo, but make this your top destination. It is quite simply a WOW culinary experience. Thank you Uncle (Zio). ❤️

29/01/2026: I was a guest for work. If I ever come to L'Aquila for a vacation, I'll definitely stay at this family-run, yet truly professionally managed hotel. The food was delicious, with a freshly baked croissant for breakfast, just the way I like it. The staff were helpful and attentive to their guests' habits. They noticed I was carefully avoiding tomatoes and dairy products and offered suitable options without a word. I thanked them and explained my slight intolerances. The RESTAURANT/PIZZERIA is spacious and attractive, with rooms that sleep three, and tidy and comfortable bathrooms. But above all these aesthetic features, I have to give it a sixth star for the cleanliness of all the rooms. Finally, there's ample parking with a large solar shelter that can accommodate five or six vans or trucks.

17/01/2026: Recommended. We ordered three pizzas (my mother is celiac and said it was among the best she's ever eaten), and my dad ordered the cod trio, which was also very good. Kudos to the staff, too; the waitress who served us was named Sara and was very helpful and polite. A well-deserved 5 stars for the restaurant.

06/01/2026: A very large restaurant with a garden. The dishes are generous, especially the first courses. The second courses are grilled and delicious. There's a wide selection of both first and second courses. EXCELLENT QUALITY AND PRICE.

30/12/2025: An experience to be repeated!!!

18/01/2026: It would be a real shame not to stop! Highly recommended and worth discovering. The key word: tradition! Everything is limited, a synonym for quality. Except for the portions...very generous! Definitely worth the stop.

11/01/2026: Located among the villages on the slopes of Gran Sasso, this restaurant introduced me to the delicious cuisine of Abruzzo, with its many local specialties and typical mountain products. We started with the arrosticini, which were impossible not to order. They were incredible and, let me be clear, much better than anything I've tasted around Italy: the meat was incredibly tender and the lamb flavor was delicate, never too intense. We then shared a few dishes to try a little bit of everything. The fresh pasta with lamb ragù was simply perfect, perfectly cooked and with a ragù that melted in your mouth. The pecorino alla cottora was a delight and echoed the quality of the arrosticini, thanks to the tender meat's distinctive flavor, yet without overpowering the other ingredients. The sauce was definitely worth mopping up. Finally, my favorite dish: the pallotte cacio e ova, fried cheese and egg balls dipped in a delicious sauce. Incredible! All accompanied by an excellent house red wine. The service was very friendly and helpful. Despite our late arrival for lunch, they welcomed us warmly and attentively, making the experience even more enjoyable. For about thirty euros each, I left feeling full and very satisfied. I highly recommend it.

13/12/2025: The atmosphere was perfect, the service was efficient and the food was excellent.

13/12/2025: I went to O'Sarracino today. The location is very nice and welcoming, and it's a place that's open at the last minute. The food is very good because it's not your average kebab. I LOVED IT!

07/01/2026: I looked for a restaurant near the Stiffe Caves for my husband and I and made a reservation. We arrived a little late on a Sunday due to the GPS, but they didn't give away any seats. We had two appetizers, two first courses, a meat-based main course, and a dessert. Everything was delicious, fresh, and made with excellent ingredients. They also have an excellent wine list. The service was excellent, welcoming, and unobtrusive. The location is an old tower and it's beautiful. We're from Rome, but we'll definitely be back to try other dishes.

04/01/2026: Excellent location, well-prepared cuisine, fair price.

03/02/2026: Recommended by a friend, we were more than satisfied. Excellent in every way: service, cleanliness, professionalism, kindness... if I'm ever in the area again, I won't hesitate to return. SPECTACULAR!!!!

25/01/2026: Cala di Ponente, a guarantee. Excellent quality. Congratulations to the Gaspari family and their staff.
