I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina abruzzese in L'aquila

07/08/2025: We stopped by chance, intrigued by the exterior of the place... it turned out to be a fantastic place! Excellent and plentiful food, the owner is welcoming, friendly, and good company.

03/08/2025: I discovered this place while staying two nights in Assergi. The pasta dish I ordered was excellent, accepting Franchino's suggestion of what he was already preparing. It was so good, and I was enjoying myself while sipping an excellent wine, that I also ordered the arrosticini with the vegetables. The quality/price ratio is excellent, and the atmosphere is welcoming. I'll definitely be back.

19/08/2025: Highly recommended The owner is a lovely person, along with all the staff Professional, but above all, always smiling and present among the tables. Lavinia & Carlo from Pescara

15/08/2025: Very familiar atmosphere, kind and helpful staff, speedy service, very good and plentiful food....we were really satisfied, we will definitely be back ☺️

17/08/2025: An old hotel but well kept. We just stayed one night and left early so did not appreciate the swimming pool. The shower is missing a shelf or a wider sink for a more comfortable use. The hallways are a bit dark. The service is excellent and the stay makes an effort so you feel comfortable. Close to the highway in case your staying just the night on your way to another city.

11/08/2025: Nice place and good food. Great pool.

27/08/2025: Everything was excellent. As always

20/08/2025: During our stay in Rocca di Cambio, we dined at Ristorante Il Caminetto, nestled in the Sirente-Velino Regional Natural Park, and were thrilled. As soon as we entered, we were warmly greeted by the staff, who escorted us to our table in the lower room: a rustic, warm, and familiar atmosphere where you immediately feel at home. The cuisine is typical of Abruzzo, and you can taste it from the first bite: the mixed antipasto of local cured meats and cheeses was a great start, with authentic and well-balanced flavors. The pork shank was the true star of the dinner: incredibly tender, it pulled apart on its own, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. All accompanied by an excellent house wine. The other menu items, all well-designed, also showcase local tradition using quality ingredients. The portions are generous, the quality/price ratio excellent, and the staff is always friendly and helpful. At the end of the meal, in addition to the classic sweets and liqueurs, the restaurant also offers an original and traditional twist: sweets dipped in artisanal liqueurs. We tried the licorice and aniseed ones—an original and delightful way to end the evening. A tip: if you visit in the summer, book well in advance to eat on the terrace. Without a doubt, Il Caminetto is the best restaurant in Rocca di Cambio—and perhaps in the entire area. Highly recommended!

13/08/2025: The 5-star rating for the food at Lilino restaurant is almost a given, almost because it's subjective. But Ilaria's service and kindness during our stay were extraordinary. Even though she was visibly tired from the large number of customers, She didn't hesitate to give us a table and served us wonderfully, full of attention and care. Ilaria, thank you for giving us so much. Thank you.

10/08/2025: We had a great time. We will definitely be back.

14/08/2025: A mio parere una delle migliori gelaterie di Palermo, economica e gelato anche di buona qualità

24/07/2025: Lovely food and helpful, welcoming staff. Thank you!

10/08/2025: Rustic and welcoming atmosphere. The owner is extremely kind, putting you at ease and making you feel right at home. The kitchen is efficient: well-prepared and tasty dishes. A plus is that they're open to making any changes to the menu, a rare thing these days in restaurants where the menu is often rigidly pre-packaged. Quick and friendly service. An experience worth repeating.

06/08/2025: Superlative! This is the only word I can use to describe "Da Paolino," a restaurant I loved everything about: the location, the staff, and the food. I'd call the menu "concrete," with a varied menu but dishes firmly rooted in local and seasonal food and wine traditions! I'd say I preferred one dish over another, but in reality, everything deserves an honorable mention. The bruschetta with truffle and with scamorza and radicchio are absolutely unmissable, as are their first courses of homemade pasta made "with sincerity" (not the kind passed off as homemade and then bought at the local store or, even worse, bought at some cash-and-carry!!!). The choice of second courses was interesting; instead of meat, we chose a grilled pecorino with honey... a poetry of flavors and textures that's hard to put into words. Our self-esteem prevented us from having seconds, but it will certainly be a good reason to return. Finally, indulge in their desserts, made with a delicious, perfectly sweet yellow cream. After all, when quality and passion are put into a dish, there's no need for any gimmicks to make it better. Highly recommended!

30/08/2025: This historic restaurant in Pescocostanzo is a must-visit for anyone who wants to sample authentic Abruzzo tradition and typical local dishes. The first courses are good and the portions are generous, though the prices are a bit higher than average. The second courses are delicious, especially the grilled fillet steak, which I highly recommend. The desserts are a bit simpler, and the tiramisu is served in smaller portions. The service is fast, but could be more attentive and precise, especially when serving and clearing the tables. Overall, I recommend this restaurant for its traditional cuisine and the quality of the dishes.

21/08/2025: It's impossible to visit the beautiful Pescocostanzo without stopping at Tre Frati. The former convent refectory, transformed into a family-run restaurant over 50 years ago, continues to serve authentic, traditional, and high-quality cuisine, complemented by some highly successful innovations from the new generation of chefs. You'll also find a good wine list, naturally with a focus on the excellent Montepulciano d'Abruzzo.

11/08/2025: In the small village of Rosciolo, this small restaurant offers carefully crafted cuisine for all tastes. Abruzzo and Piedmont meet in the chef's dishes, and the extensive, carefully selected wine list offers a satisfying and relaxing experience. The service is expert and attentive, with thorough, yet concise, explanations of the dishes and wines, and the atmosphere is a welcoming blend of past and present. I recommend it for both an evening with friends and a romantic dinner.

04/08/2025: Ristorante carino, buona la location, abbastana buona l'accoglienza, meno la sistemazione nel tavolo assegnato sebbene al momento fossero possibili alternative. Negativa la presentazione del menù con diverse portate non disponibili e alternative poco chiare. Mancanza di contorni e verdure e atteggiamento un po' altezzoso della proprietaria, cortese ma fredda. Cucina buona ma troppo cara sia per il posto che per la varietà proposta.

26/07/2025: The service was a bit rushed, probably by accident, but otherwise the food and location were very good!

25/07/2025: If you want to eat a dish featuring top-quality local produce, served with kindness by young people, this is the place. We had gnocchi with venison ragù, spaghetti with bacon and pecorino cream, and they were excellent. We also ordered a half portion for our little one, and it was all delicious. We also had a mozzarella with seasonal vegetables. The young and polite people made us feel right at home. Thank you, and see you on your next mountain trip! Greetings from little Anna

19/07/2025: We discovered Lo Sgabello Ristorante during a trip to Scanno and immediately fell in love! The first thing that strikes you is the kindness and hospitality of the staff: waiters are always smiling, helpful, and ready to passionately recommend the daily specials, making us feel right at home. The menu is a riot of local flavors: delicious dishes, prepared with fresh, quality ingredients, that showcase Abruzzo's traditions with a touch of originality. The portions? Truly generous! Forget about minimal dishes: here, you eat with gusto and satisfaction. Another great plus: dogs are welcome on the terrace, where you can dine while enjoying the splendid view of the mountains. An unusual touch that we greatly appreciated. And the icing on the cake: the quality-price ratio is excellent. You leave with a full belly, a light heart, and a healthy wallet. Highly recommended for those looking for an authentic, warm, and mouth-watering place! We'll definitely be back. 🐾🍝❤️

19/07/2025: If there hadn't been any flies it would have been perfect.

29/08/2025: We ate and drank very well. The price was fair. I recommend it for the food; everything was good. We'll be back.

28/08/2025: Nice restaurant, but the mixed roast was absolutely disappointing. It was so dry and chewy it was inedible (and in fact, we left most of it on our plate). It's a shame, because I'd read good reviews; they claimed to come to every table to ask how things went... No one came to our table; the guy who took it away didn't say a word. I was the one who told him the meat was tough, but he didn't know what to say. The service also left a lot to be desired; my husband is still waiting for a spoon that never arrived... Finally, the icing on the cake: two tables near us were billed incorrectly. Our bill was correct and even fair, except that we practically threw away the €18.50 for the meat.

27/08/2025: Excellent first courses. All the pasta is homemade. I can't rate the meat because I didn't order any. Excellent potatoes! I go back often.

19/08/2025: I'll start by saying that every time I passed through Forme, I stopped for dinner. It was a bad experience, and the owner was rude to say the least. I asked for rare cuts of meat, and they brought me almost charred cuts of meat. (The waiter also agreed with me.) The first courses were simply excessive in quantity, but lacked flavor. An experience to forget.

22/08/2025: Extremely expensive: a small Peroni to-go beer cost €3.50, with no service. Shameful.

21/08/2025: The chitarrine with Abruzzese pesto are excellent and the mixed roast is also good, the coffee price is high.

28/06/2025: Eating fish at Cacciatore may seem like a contradiction in terms, but it pleasantly surprised us. Rich and delicious menu. Keep it up.

17/05/2025: Excellent food, great courtesy... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...
