I migliori ristoranti in L'aquila

20/07/2025: Very nice place, very kind and efficient staff. We dined there because we wanted a proper seafood dinner, and they guarantee the quality, deliciousness, and above all, the freshness of their ingredients. The portions are generous but not overwhelming, and everything is perfectly cooked and piping hot. We asked to dine on the veranda given the lovely evening temperatures, but the inside dining room is also lovely. We had a wonderful time. Excellent value for money.

17/07/2025: Lunch break...delicious appetizer, fried food and roast. Advised

11/08/2025: Sunday, August 10, 2025, lunchtime for a group of six with a reservation for the second sitting at 2:30 PM. Given that the restaurant was packed, we were seated after a few minutes' delay. I don't know what went wrong with the wait staff, but we received terrible service, with the staff being surly and distracted. The first courses and appetizers seemed to be made with leftovers, with minimal portions and thrown onto the plate without any care, unlike the neighboring tables with generous, steaming portions. The only edible thing was the grilled scamorza with a small piece of sausage and the arrosticini. Oh, I forgot, we also ordered the house red wine. It tasted very light and off-putting, as if it were half water and half some other red substance. We had to order a large Coke to get something decent. Regardless of the poor quality-price ratio, the experience is absolutely awful.

04/08/2025: After a positive experience last year (both in terms of value for money and hospitality), this year was a huge disappointment. The overall food quality was below par, the service was inattentive, the dining room was noisy, prices were rising, and portions were decreasing. It's a shame. I'd like to think it was a fluke and will definitely give them another chance. I took one star off the food, one star off the service, and one off the ambiance.

17/08/2025: LUCA 🪬 The RIGHT *COMBINATION* between the *PERSON* and the *CHARACTER* I've known this PERSON for 24 years, and the time has come for me to publicly express the appropriate *ACKNOWLEDGEMENT* and due *ACKNOWLEDGEMENT* for what he IS, without flattery, without gimmicks, without recriminations. I could align myself with the more common and ordinary reviews in which many lavishly evaluate the cooking of the dishes, the timing with which the dish arrives at the table, the creative value of the chef, but I WILL NOT. I will avoid taking on the honor and burden of dispensing unsolicited prejudices and judgments, especially since I have never passed any culinary exam. What I focus on, instead, is the intention and the result with which this essential yet not minimal setting with its white tablecloths NEVER fails. All this by gathering and welcoming all its guests, driven by the one ESSENCE we all truly need: that of making us feel "AT HOME." The courage, tenacity, and perseverance with which a family-run business has reshaped its family to remain here today at our service and yours are admirable and universally indisputable. If you are looking for a place to connect, observe, consider, and consolidate thoughts, emotions, and feelings, do so here, articulating and engaging with culinary magic that will certainly be the right recipe, the perfect union for a UNIQUE experience.

13/04/2025: Eleganza, cortesia ed attenzione ci hanno immediatamente colpito! Tutto ottimo, antipasti primi e secondi. Tutto ben presentato! Prezzo adeguato a quello che abbiamo mangiato!! Piccolo consiglio: sarebbe bene riscaldare i piatti prima di impiantare i primi, sono arrivati tutti appena tiepidi! Ci torneremo sicuramente!!

13/07/2025: We ordered three pizzas to be delivered this evening; all were good, but the whole-wheat Margherita pizza was truly excellent. Super friendly and punctual!

06/07/2025: Great takeout pizza. Limited seating on site.

26/04/2025: Always great pizza Prices a little expensive but worth it.

20/07/2025: Mrs. Franca and Mr. Paolo are exquisite people, the menus are always fresh and changing, the staff is kind and professional on a daily basis... what can I say, excellent?

21/06/2025: Ristorante La Ruota presents itself well: a well-kept location, a not very spacious environment and an average menu, with land-based options. The restaurant is suitable for family dinners but not for small events. That said, the experience was mixed. Some dishes were well executed, such as the appetizers and the pasta, tasty and with fresh ingredients. However, other dishes were not entirely convincing: for example, the second courses arrived lukewarm and with a rather simple presentation, which clashed a bit with the proposed price. The service was also inconsistent: the staff is kind, but a bit distracted. We had to ask for water and bread several times, and the wait between one course and another was above average, even though the restaurant was not full. The bill was a bit high compared to the overall quality of the experience. This is not a failure, but there is certainly room for improvement both in the kitchen and in the organization of the service. In short: a restaurant with good potential, but which should focus more on consistency and customer care to really make a difference.

14/08/2025: Very small and expensive shop. Good bread.

09/07/2025: The shop is beautiful, and the woman who works there is very good at dealing with people. It's my first time visiting, and I'm so grateful.

04/09/2025: This pizzeria is truly exceptional. The pizza, especially the Neapolitan one, is truly good. I recommend it to everyone.

27/08/2025: Best pizza in the Abruzzo region. The prices are low and the pizza tastes very good. It was always a pleasure to see Mario and his wife. They recently upgraded the restaurant to double of the size. Also nice to sit in- and outside.

18/06/2025: I have only tried the restaurant service: excellent, healthy and genuine food, being all locally produced, and at reasonable prices. Absolutely not to be missed!

15/06/2025: terrible food, place full of flies, it is not normal to eat with 50 flies landing on the food. The place itself is nice, but outside in the garden dogs continually come and indulge.

28/06/2025: This evening I was in this restaurant to celebrate my birthday, where I invited friends and children with my grandchildren. The dinner was sublime, where everyone had the possibility of choosing on the menu. Fresh and artfully cooked food, I was also able to choose an excellent wine 🍷 through the wine list and through shelves where there was a wide range of first-rate wines. The environment as usual welcoming and always well-ordered and clean. The service as always punctual and precise. The prices are very affordable and always in line with the products ordered. An evening spent in joy and carefree. Once again I compliment the owners who are humble, very polite, as well as always up to the situation.

16/06/2025: Everything is high quality, typical products, excellent meat.

29/06/2025: In transit in Luco dei Marsi, lunch time, I check on Google I stop at the Il Corallo Restaurant, I call and speak with the owner Mr. Angelo.. a very kind person and immediately made himself available despite a banquet. Entering inside the very welcoming restaurant, we were welcomed as if we were family. Super excellent dishes, a note of merit to the royal with pine nuts.. compliments, I will keep your number also recommending it to friends..

08/03/2025: The very kind and friendly restaurateur

15/08/2025: Located in a very unusual location, over the years it has lost its class and the quality of its food. The paper tablecloths and napkins are practically transparent, the worst on the market. The menu, on an A4 sheet of paper, is highly questionable because it doesn't list allergens or the asterisks for frozen foods. The waiters don't wear uniform shirts; they're all different. The kitchen is in the restaurant, the tables outside are far apart, and the dishes arrived uncovered by sweat, moths, etc. There were six of us. We were served thawed and re-sautéed chicory, and the industrial-style cheese and egg balls, heavily breaded like Ascoli olives. The service was terrible: a plate of chicory arrives, 15 minutes after the other two chicory dishes, then a plate of potatoes, then the other two. Next came two portions of lamb, then one sliced lamb with arugula, and then the three slices of lamb with porcini mushrooms. In reality, the side dish should come with the meat. The six of us diners were entitled to eat together. In short, the intermittent dishes are not a sign of good organization between the service and the kitchen. The place pretends to be something it's not, but the prices are exorbitant. Not recommended.

09/08/2025: Tasty, carefully prepared food, impeccable service, attentive customer service, and a charming location. Friendly and helpful staff.
