I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Abruzzo

06/05/2026: We discovered this family-run restaurant thanks to Domenico of Villa Marusia and everything was delicious, we will be back.

05/05/2026: Compliments to the staff Friendly and helpful staff Excellent cuisine and succulent antipasti with exceptional value for money Highly recommended

03/06/2026: Ricotta ravioli with mushroom sauce, excellent and plentiful; seven arrosticini, sold by the slice, excellent; grilled veal fillet, excellent flavor but tough and stringy (I daresay it wasn't even fillet; I don't usually eat veal fillet, but I'm still skeptical); tiramisu served in miniature sizes, delicious, but tiramisu isn't made like that and isn't that big; water, house wine, and cover charge, total €35, with a €2 discount you didn't ask for. A detour of about 200 km to return to this place where, 10 or 12 years earlier, I had a sumptuous dinner, qualitatively better than today's, at a paltry cost, I think less than €20. And in the adjacent room, two local gentlemen were also entertaining the onlookers, especially the out-of-towners, by singing folk songs from around the area. The question is: in another 10 years, will I purposely detour 200 km to return, or will I decide it's not worth it? You guessed it. I did find the owner much gruffer than I remembered, with little or no inclination to show even a modicum of warmth and hospitality, especially to out-of-towners. Furthermore, the place isn't anything special, and I had a hell of a time finding it. I warn you that simply typing "Carpineto della Nora, contrada Colle della Guardia" (without a street number) into your GPS won't be enough, since the contrada is at least 5-10 km long, and before miraculously finding someone to ask, you'll be back and forth at least a couple of times through these solitudes of the Gran Sasso d'Italia. Overall rating: two stars. (But maybe in 10 years his little son will take over, and maybe the stars will become three, or four. Or even one!).

17/05/2026: A simply perfect day. I was taken to this restaurant by restaurant friends, and I must say it was a wonderful discovery. We ate divinely, with carefully prepared dishes, authentic flavors, and a truly rare quality. The ravioli? Probably the best I've ever eaten. Extraordinary. And the desserts... spectacular, beautiful to look at and even better to taste, something truly out of the ordinary. Special praise also goes to the owner and his wife: exquisite, welcoming, kind, and passionate about their work. You can sense love in every detail, from the cuisine to the hospitality. A place truly worth exploring, and one where I will return with great pleasure.

06/06/2026: I went to try the gricia they advertise so much, but it was a huge disappointment! Overcooked pasta, nonexistent guanciale and pecorino, and tiny portions! Avoid!

31/05/2026: A truly positive experience on a Friday evening with friends. In a quiet and welcoming atmosphere, we were treated with professionalism by the waiter, who guided us towards a truly delicious and authentic cod experience.

24/03/2026: Excellent seafood restaurant. Everything was good. Excellent service. Recommended!

27/01/2026: A historic family-run seafood restaurant The care and love for the cuisine is evident, with a menu that demonstrates a desire to innovate without compromising the flavor of good seafood. By reservation, they also make an excellent fish broth (with or without bones, as you prefer), which is an experience in itself!

10/06/2026: The food was excellent, the service wasn't exactly fast, but it was Sunday. If you're not in a hurry, I highly recommend it.

29/05/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 stars An absolute stroke of luck – and probably one of the best lunches of our entire trip to Italy! We had originally just planned to explore the area and enjoy the town. Around lunchtime, we stumbled upon this restaurant quite by chance and spontaneously decided to book a table in the shaded outdoor seating area. A decision we didn't regret for a second. Despite the restaurant being quite full and even a tour bus arriving later, the service was incredibly attentive, friendly, and surprisingly quick. We felt welcome from the very first moment. The food was simply outstanding. The ravioli with saffron and ricotta filling were a particular highlight. Honestly, they were the best ravioli I've ever eaten. Perfectly balanced flavors, freshly prepared, and cooked with great care. What always impresses us in Italy is the fantastic value for money. Here, too, you get top-notch quality, regional cuisine, and warm hospitality at absolutely fair prices. Anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine should definitely dine here. We would come back anytime and can wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. Thank you so much for this wonderful culinary experience!

10/04/2026: Simply fantastic!!! Family-run, and everything is excellent. The dishes are authentic, and the service is superb!! Thank you so much 🙏🏻

09/06/2026: I stumbled upon this place in Pineto by chance, thanks to a local's recommendation. I had a wonderful meal! The fried fish was exquisite, perfectly fried, as were the potatoes, and the pizza was excellent. The service was polite, fast, and efficient... I highly recommend it!

05/06/2026: We ordered 3 pizzas, they were quick and friendly and the pizza was delicious.

06/05/2026: A magnificent culinary experience, excellent food and excellent service. Very competitive prices.

25/04/2026: ordered cold and hot appetizers and two fish first courses, and then fried calamari, all excellent fresh fish, I definitely recommend it, excellent prices for the appetizer €24, while the first courses were only €12, the house white wine was good, only the lemon sorbet I didn't like, there wasn't enough lemon present.

03/05/2026: A very welcoming place, just steps from the Ducal Castle of Crecchio! The sagne coi ceci are excellent, as are the pallotte cace e ove and the pork steak! The owners are very friendly. We had a very pleasant lunch. Considering the taverna is small, I recommend making a reservation! If I were to ever return to Crecchio, I would gladly return here!

12/04/2026: A wonderful discovery! Excellent food and lots of courtesy and cheerfulness. Highly recommended.
