I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Abruzzo

17/04/2026: Thank you, it was delicious. I recommend it :-) Have a nice day.

28/02/2026: Speechless experience, I am still enjoying the unbelievable combination of excellent French cheese and wine!

14/04/2026: I've always found this place satisfying, from the ambiance to the food. The menu is simple but the ingredients are high-quality, especially the meat. The arrosticini, meat, and liver are also excellent... the pizza was delicious, too! A guarantee...

10/04/2026: Since I can't respond to a specific review, I'm forced to create a new one, which is also inevitably negative. I'm part of the group who dined with Cristian Del Vecchio (review below last Monday), and I want to address every point raised by management in response to my friend. 1. Portions: We understand that the quantity choices are yours, but charging €20 for a "mixed roast" like the one served is unjustifiable. The potatoes, described as "mere garnish," were literally counted and, to make a point in your favor, were from the day before. 2. Food: The story about the extra ribs is untrue. As the pictures show, most of the meat was charred and inedible. However, what struck us was the staff's total indifference to our complaints. We tried to point out that the food was inedible from the first course, but we were consistently ignored. The head waiter approached our table only once, saying, "These are the quantities," and then walking away. We were mistakenly hoping it was just one unfortunate dish. 3. The discount: Continuing with the previous point, after receiving charred liver skewers, we expressed our disappointment directly at the cashier. The owner gave us a discount of about 30%, but she had no choice; we were tired of being snubbed and refused to pay such an exorbitant amount. We were advised to stand up and not pay, which probably would have been the best way to be taken seriously, but instead we chose politeness and a "simple" negative review. What I don't accept is that such a review would be taken by management as "a pretext to denigrate the work of others." We know how difficult it is to run a restaurant on Easter Monday, but trying to justify a less-than-positive experience by blaming it on the customer is unacceptable. Best regards, and good luck.

04/01/2026: I'm giving it 1 star only because I can't give it 0! I placed an order on Deliveroo, 2-3 hours passed, and there was no sign of the pizzas. The tracking system was stuck at "we're looking for a rider," and we were left starving. My heartfelt congratulations for your professionalism, but above all for your politeness. 🤣

23/04/2026: At the end of August, we were returning from vacation and stopped for two nights in San Vito Chietino. Our host recommended La Kantina because we wanted to try a fish soup. Excellent advice, and the fish soup is delicious, but you obviously need to order it. The only thing I'd say is that, not knowing the dish, we ordered one each. I'd say perhaps a bit too much, because the portion is generous and that's fine for the variety of fish. However, we had to leave the sauce aside, even though it was delicious. I'd say one fish soup is enough for two people. When we're back in the area, we'll definitely be back.

19/04/2026: We returned here after several years, and honestly, I wouldn't go back. 1) There's no menu with prices, which leads to unpleasant surprises at the cash register. 2) The appetizer was €18, which includes the cold dish (which you see in the photo), and we had two, and then the hot dishes, which you also see in the photo, and that's for two. 3) The roast, which you see in the photo, was a steal: €20 for 1 red mullet, 1 sea bass, 3 cuttlefish, and 1 shrimp... 4) The fried portion deserves credit. The portion you see in the photo is for one person, so it's excellent, even for the price. 5) In total, we spent €90, including free water, coffee, wine, or anything else. A bit too much, I'd say!

21/01/2026: The restaurant is a bit out of the ordinary; from the outside, you can't tell it's a restaurant. 🙂 Very good food, fast service, and good prices. The arrosticini are excellent.

19/05/2026: Acceptable food, slow and messy service. If the organization was better it would deserve more.

12/02/2026: A warm welcome from the owner, excellent cuisine with hearty, traditional dishes, and warm, clean rooms. I highly recommend it...

26/03/2026: Excellent pizza and very welcoming place.

27/12/2025: Here's the short version with the additions: I returned to this pizzeria accompanying out-of-town guests, but unfortunately the experience wasn't a positive one. We ordered the €15 "special pizzas," but the dough was very thin and toasted around the edges. The turnip greens on the pizza didn't seem fresh, but rather jarred. The place is also nice, but rather small and with an inadequate number of tables: we were quite crowded. I would have liked a burger, but they weren't available. Furthermore, when it came to the macchiato, we were told it could only be served cold, not hot—which was truly incredible. My guests were also disappointed. I hate to give a negative review, but the value for money isn't impressive, and I don't think I'll be back.

24/04/2026: I saw Babaman on Easter Monday 🥹 the place is really cute and quaint! The sea is spectacular and the staff very friendly.

17/04/2026: It’s a great place for a stopover on the route from Vasto to Ortona. We had a delicious meal (panini and salad) and were kindly assisted by both the staff and the owner. The owner was very helpful when it turned out the bike battery was empty and even charged the bike for us.

25/10/2025: Excellent natural ice cream. Catherine is very friendly, we chatted with her while tasting our ice creams. Real artisanal ice cream, not like often in Italy, where the name is overrated. Thank you. Olivier Valais-Switzerland

12/10/2025: A must-do experience when you go to Italy. A top-notch gelateria with natural flavors. A warm welcome, thanks to Catherine for her kindness, good humor, and her ice cream tips. Go there with your eyes closed!

07/05/2026: Very nice place, excellent welcome, kind and polite staff, precise and fast service, the pizza is definitely not Neapolitan but believe me, very, very good, fair prices.

12/01/2026: Great pizzas, large and well-made! I'll definitely be back.

16/06/2026: Perfect and courteous service with excellent cuisine

08/06/2026: Good food and excellent service. Recommended.

05/04/2026: Spectacular arrosticini, simple place, friendly service.

14/03/2026: The tradition of Abruzzo cuisine. Cacio e uovo balls, delicious arrosticini.

01/05/2026: And a historic activity in Francavilla al Mare

14/05/2026: Now...KARMA EXPERIENCE. Not to be missed....KARMA'S people

12/05/2026: One of my favorite establishments. The manager is always kind and very professional. Thank you so much, Gaspare!

02/06/2026: Excellent service, the waiters are quick Tasty, refined dishes

25/05/2026: The food is tasteless and expensive.
