I migliori ristoranti in L'aquila

02/09/2025: We arrived at the refuge around 3 PM, but even though we'd eaten, they cooked us delicious arrosticini right there. It's worth coming all the way here just to have a coffee and enjoy the view. Friendly staff, clean restrooms, and lovely tables in the woods!

13/08/2025: You arrive and find yourself in this family-run refuge, served by a wonderful, kind, and extremely helpful lady at the counter. We've been here a week and had the best sandwich in all of Abruzzo: sausage, broccoli rabe, and provola. Exceptional desserts. Everything homemade and strictly fresh. Five stars superior!!!

16/09/2025: The pizza was very good and well filled, the croutons were also very good... everything was ok

28/08/2025: Absolutely unfriendly staff. Not recommended.

24/08/2025: We're not arguing about the quality of the dishes, but a portion of chips (one potato cut into slices) at 7 euros seems a bit expensive, just as a first course (7 paccheri) at 17 euros is excessive. This is not tourism... learn from Trentino.

24/08/2025: Tourists can be fooled once, but the second time they won't return. Paying 36 euros per person for things I'd easily eat elsewhere for half the price and in larger quantities left a bitter taste in my mouth. I'm not saying tourism shouldn't be part of the equation, but doing so will destroy it.

06/10/2025: Completely negative, and I'm sorry. From the appetizers, there were many products, but of poor quality, to the first courses, at least for the ones my wife and I had. I won't specify which ones were inedible. Moreover, the prices weren't exactly cheap; in fact, the atmosphere was reminiscent of a 1960s/70s city-dwelling restaurant, hardly fitting for a mountain restaurant. It was also a bit cold in the dining room. The staff was very kind and quick, they won't see us again. Of course, this is just my opinion.

28/09/2025: The owner and staff were friendly, but the quality/price ratio was terrible. A single appetizer cost €19, followed by two tagliata (a slice of meat), a half-liter of house wine, and a bottle of water, for a total of €97. The tagliata (a slice of meat) weren't priced, and that made the difference: €30 for a simple tagliata (veal steak), which generally costs €18 in other restaurants. I wasn't expecting such a high price for such a simple, poorly maintained setting.

27/09/2025: I Briganti has always been a go-to restaurant for me, a student living away from home, accompanying me throughout these five long years. Unfortunately, over the past year, the quality of the food and service has significantly declined. Long waits, incorrect orders, cold food, and no longer as good or plentiful as it once was. If you try to order on Just Eat, you're in for a surprise: your order arrives late, cold, and with raw food. Furthermore, if you try to call them, no one answers or you get voicemail. I'm reluctantly leaving this review, hoping things can improve.

09/09/2025: I recommend it for a quick lunch. Traditional food, normal portions, and reasonable prices.

14/06/2025: Excellent and very friendly welcome. Another positive note is that they offer a wide selection of wine.

07/05/2025: Veramente ottimo! La gentilezza della signorina che ci ha seguito, con consigli e spiegazioni, le zuppe favolose, le ottime porzioni e il prezzo veramente buono per quanto offerto ci hanno stregato! Grazie!

03/05/2025: Cucina semplice, sincera, senza fronzoli da ambiziosi gourmet, ad un prezzo giusto e con un servizio corretto e molto cortese. Evitate manciate di sale, grassi inutili, panne pasticciate per dare solo apparenza di sapore. Un agnello da 20 e lode per quanto mi riguarda (davvero gustoso e cotto a puntino). Chitarra al pomodoro, gnocchi a salsiccia e zafferano e fantastici agnolotti di ricotta al tartufo. Vino della casa senza alcuna offesa. Che dire? Grazie!!!

13/07/2025: We had a great time, we had a seafood dinner, excellent linguine allo scoglio, followed by a mixed grill of seafood. Everything was good and plentiful. The owners were very friendly. Recommended.

27/07/2025: Qualità e quantità ottime, unite ad una cortesia fuori dal comune. Sapori della tradizione Abruzzese di eccellente livello, curati con passione da Tonino e Luisa. Assolutamente consigliato

21/06/2025: Il locale è decisamente datato, ma pulito e arioso. La proposta culinaria è tradizionale con prodotti locali e pasta fatta in casa. Una menzione speciale alle taccozze al grano di solina con broccoli e salsiccia. Tutto buono. Il conto nella media

17/09/2025: I walked in just after it opened at 8 PM. There were two tables with people at them. I had made a reservation. There was one table with one place set for me. I assumed I sat down two more groups, walked down and sat down and got water and wine and I got nothingI consider that rudeness and not to be tolerated

11/09/2025: Chosen for a quick dinner after a stroll around Santo Stefano. The lentil soup was excellent, as were the gnocchi with ragù. The waiter who served us was courteous. The service was more than timely. Good value for money.

29/07/2025: Prima cosa grazie per averci trovato un tavolo quasi a chiusura della cucina a pranzo. Agriturismo che vorrò riprovare perché dato l'orario border line molte attrazioni del menù erano terminate. Buoni gli arrosticini,ottima la pasta con zucchine e pancetta. Buona la mozzarella con prosciutto crudo. Location veramente gradevole dove vorrò trascorrere un pò di tempo in piu.

20/07/2025: dopo tanti anni, con molto dispiacere devo dire che questa volta il Rio Torto e' stato una delusione unica...due ore e piu'di attesa solo per avere delle bruschette e bevendo di continuo (per il forte caldo) in un salone dove in pieno luglio la mancanza di condizionatori o ventilatori l'hanno fatto da padroni....ovvio che dopo aver bevuto tanto quando e' arrivata l'ordinazione nessuno aveva più voglia di mangiare come appena arrivati....spero che cambi qualcosa quanto prima perché non proporro' piu' amici alla proprieta' per evitare figuracce come quella di oggi....ps: una sola persona a servire i tavoli e' qualcosa di incredibile

08/08/2025: Excellent fixed menu for 15 euros. The food is high-quality and the owner is extremely friendly.

09/06/2025: We stopped here for dinner in 4 people. We had a good time, menu at 15 euros per person with first, second and side dish, fast service and helpful owner. Homemade cuisine, I would return and recommend it.

15/06/2025: The food is excellent. First and second courses of fish (FRESH, not frozen like in other restaurants) are nothing short of exceptional, the pizza is also very good. Highly recommended!

17/08/2025: Top! Serious people...recommended! Go there!

30/03/2025: I'll be back and I'll be back!!!!!

10/08/2025: Poorly organized, very slow service, decent food

31/03/2025: We went for lunch and had a great time. We asked for gnocchi (made in casserole, well done) and pappardelle with mushrooms. Both dishes were plentiful and very good. Fair price and served fairly quickly.
