All'osteria Da Massimo
Giulianova
07/11/2025: They basically decide what to eat and how many courses.
29/10/2025: HORRIBLE dinner experience. We've been on vacation in Giulianova for a few days, and we've had lunch and dinner at many other places, but we've never experienced such a horrible osteria with such an unpleasant owner/cook/waiter. We entered, the place was empty, and even before asking if we could have dinner, I noticed the psycho-assassin look the owner gave me (I only realized later that he probably meant "how dare you come into my place"). We asked if there was room (the place was completely empty) and he didn't answer, while the owner's father politely told us "yes, of course, have a seat." The owner brought us the menu, where we could read all the various appetizers, all the various first courses, and all the various second courses separately, with each dish priced individually, which suggests that everyone was free to order what they wanted without the constraint of having to order more than one course. I decided to order a plate of meatballs in tomato sauce, which on the menu were classified as an appetizer (€15 for the appetizer... and what the heck, I might add!!!), while my husband decided to order a simple carbonara. The owner started to give us a long speech about how we could also order something else, that we had to order this, that, and the other... we insisted, saying what we wanted to eat, and he told us... "Yeah, okay, but are you two and you're eating for one? At least make it €30 for dinner, because otherwise it's not even worth turning on the stove for me"... I wanted to get up, say goodbye, and leave... but my husband still wanted to stay, ordering a portion and a half of carbonara because that would make up for what the owner said was a meal for one person!!!! But if you put a menu with various dishes, everyone will be free to order what they want???? Otherwise, you'd say right away that it works differently. He brings us the food... good meatballs but nothing exceptional, the carbonara on the other hand was completely al dente, in fact I'd say practically raw. We calmly ate everything and when we still hadn't finished, the owner approached us and said, "Aren't you eating much? I guess since you're still eating this, you don't want to order anything else, right?" We reply, "No, we'll finish what he brought us, and that's enough for us." He simply replies, "No, because it's 8:45 PM and since there's no one here tonight, I have to close at 9 PM." As if to say, "Get the hell out of here right now!" while we were still eating. I swear I dropped everything right there, grabbed my things, and left. My husband, out of kindness, finished, paid (a whopping €36 for what was crap... I hope I spend it all on medicine for a bad case of diarrhea!), and left. Can anyone be so rude, ill-mannered, insolent, and disgusting? These people don't deserve to have a business, and they don't deserve even a cent. TOTAL DISGUSTING.

Il Marchese del Grillo
Francavilla al mare
21/10/2025: Kind and helpful people, good food.
28/08/2025: ⭐☆☆☆☆ Total disaster: from dinner to absolute disgust
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE. This place is the perfect definition of a customer scam.
I'm writing this review still disgusted by the evening I spent in what was once called a restaurant. Today, it's little more than a trap for unsuspecting tourists, with unacceptable hygiene standards and cuisine unworthy of the name.
ENVIRONMENT AND HYGIENE: IMMEDIATE CLOSURE. We were placed in an outdoor area without any cover. Besides suffering from the heat, the real tragedy was when a diner was hit in the arm by the excrement of a bird nesting above us. I have the photos to prove it. But that wasn't the height of disgust: the bathrooms are old, dirty, and unkempt. Peeking into the kitchen, I saw a greasy, unclean environment, and cooks who were anything but cooks. They should have called not only the local health authority, but also the Guardia di Finanza.
THE "CULINARY": A JOKE
· First Courses: I ordered Cacio e Pepe, a signature dish of Rome. What I was served was a runny, sticky broth, where the cheese hadn't even mixed with the pasta, which was lukewarm to boot. Absolutely inedible.
· Second Courses: Three miserable meat rolls, so small they didn't even fill the center of the plate. Burnt on the outside and sad on the inside. An insult to the customer's intelligence and to their wallet (which was cowardly robbed).
· Side Dishes: Baked potatoes as dry as sawdust and a chicory that, instead of being sautéed, seemed to have been boiled in unsalted water. Flavorless, lifeless.
SERVICE AND CONS: The waitress wasn't in uniform and served the dishes with such a distressed expression that she looked like she was having trouble. Maybe she was, working in a place like this. When it came time to pay the bill, there was no invoice describing the meals, just an exaggerated and generic receipt. A clear attempt to hide the prices of what were once disgusting dishes.
CONCLUSION: This place is living off a past reputation that no longer exists. This place should close its doors immediately. I don't understand how it still has positive reviews if not for a blatant fake review game. I advise everyone to spend their money elsewhere, where the food is edible and hygiene is a priority. P.S. I apologize to the people I invited to this dinner.
