I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in L'aquila

09/10/2025: An excellent experience Dishes that convey love and passion for this land, carefully prepared and presented, with authentic yet bold flavors. Andrea is the perfect host who makes you appreciate every dish prepared by his wife, Barbara, an attentive and knowledgeable cook. A wonderful evening, thank you so much.

04/10/2025: For a select few, connoisseurs of all five senses... Yes, even hearing, when you hear Barbara's spoon clink at the end of the meal as she whips the cream on the spot. Thanks to Andrea for making us reconcile ourselves with the idea of ​​eating at a restaurant!!

20/10/2025: As always, the best meat in the Marsican area

19/10/2025: Recommended place not only for the quality food but also for its kind and welcoming owner. We started with the very good appetizer and moved on to the main course, which was also worth it... but man, the steak is unbeatable, it was excellent quality and huge. Not happy! 🫣 He brought us arrosticini, and we practically ate one after another until we lost count because they were so good. 😜🤩 The dessert was a delight for the palate. The place is in a strategic location, you can admire the castle. What can I say... Gianpiero, you won us over.

16/11/2025: My favorite restaurant in Rocca di Cambio, we've become regulars here, and we always go there. The owners are super friendly, and the food is truly delicious!

30/08/2025: At this restaurant, you can savor traditional Abruzzo cuisine in a slightly more refined and sophisticated atmosphere than other local restaurants. Their game appetizer, featuring top-quality cured meats, is definitely worth trying. It's plentiful and paired with a "cooked" antipasto featuring a variety of delicious dishes. The first courses were generous, especially the fettuccine with creamy porcini mushrooms and fresh truffle. However, the roe deer-filled ravioli was a bit thick and tough, and the chopped tomatoes on top didn't really add much to the dish. They also offer a wide selection of meat-based main courses, but we preferred the first courses. A wide and interesting selection of desserts, including the truly superb amarena brittle. The girls who served us were knowledgeable, kind, and above all, quick!! We'll definitely be back one evening to try their pizza, which looks delicious.

16/11/2025: The food is delicious, the cuisine uses local produce (including from their own garden!), the service is exceptional, and it's also very fun and cute. Highest recommendations

12/11/2025: A fantastic, unique place with attention to detail, friendly and courteous staff, and exceptional food with traditional dishes revisited in a gourmet style, definitely worth trying again and again. Thank you for the wonderful Sunday we spent with you.

19/11/2025: Excellent quality food and generous portions. Prices are more than fair.

19/11/2025: Truly excellent osteria. I went to eat with a group from a course. There were a lot of people that day, but I have to say that the waiters, the cooks, everyone was very quick with their service, and I have to say that it was the first time I've seen it. It seems to me that the osteria is family-run. The menu included an appetizer with cured meats, cheese, very good spiced mushrooms, etc., then the first course was chitarra pasta with saffron, ricotta, and truffle, which I must say was very good. Then the second course was meat with arancini and chicory, then the house dessert, and we were also offered gentian at the end. I didn't spend much, so I'd say I'd return.

07/10/2025: Impeccable service, helpful and polite. Very tender meat. Very good sides. Welcoming and very attentive atmosphere. I will definitely be back. Yes. 100%

05/10/2025: Today I had the pleasure of lunch at Emiliano's La Fuocina, and it was a truly memorable experience. I tasted a full-blood Wagyu "Italia" rib-eye steak that was simply extraordinary: a unique, tender meat, perfectly marbled, with an intense and refined flavor. An absolute delight, never tasted before! And not just the meat: the appetizers and first courses were also meticulously prepared, balanced, and bursting with flavor. All this was accompanied by attentive and friendly service, which made the day even more enjoyable. This restaurant is absolutely worth a try, and I recommend it without hesitation to anyone who loves good food and authentic gastronomic experiences.

02/11/2025: Exceptional, excellent service. The lady in the dining room was very helpful and welcoming, making you feel at home. The food was superb; we chose the six-course tasting menu, which guests can choose from, as long as they share the same dishes for the table. Each course lived up to expectations, even more. We also really appreciated that the homemade bread, which was delicious, was brought only with the main courses, so we didn't have to fill up first and could fully appreciate each course. The wine pairing was recommended by the lady who proved to be extremely knowledgeable. High-end dining with excellent value.

15/10/2025: Good restaurant, excellent raw materials, fair prices.

01/11/2025: I've been coming to this restaurant for a long time, and every time is a confirmation! The owner, Fabrizio, is always kind and welcoming. The pizza is delicious, and the meat is excellent. Even the cabbage side is truly tasty. But the real masterpiece is the tiramisu: sublime, I've never had anything so good anywhere else! Compliments to all the staff; it's always a pleasure to return!

20/10/2025: We went for lunch yesterday, including with our Labrador, and we had a wonderful time. The homemade food was excellent, the view of the gorges was beautiful, the service was efficient and friendly, and the food was plentiful. I'll definitely be back.

11/11/2025: A welcoming place thanks to its outdoor spaces, the kindness of the restaurant staff, the authentic, quality food, and the excellent value. A stop here is recommended for anyone visiting Rocca Calascio.

19/09/2025: Truly excellent food, dishes with attention to detail and raw materials, very friendly owner. Highly recommended.

15/10/2025: We already can't wait to eat at this restaurant again! The staff and owner will welcome you wonderfully. The atmosphere is simple but very welcoming. The food is the icing on the cake: traditional yet sophisticated dishes with excellent pairings, all at fair prices. I recommend trying the Dulcis Venia dessert—we could have eaten 10 of them! We'll be back soon.

14/10/2025: I've noticed small changes to the place, improving the aesthetics. When you walk in and sit down, a journey through flavors begins, paired elegantly and never banally; everything is taken care of down to the smallest detail. I'll be back!!!!!

18/11/2025: A wonderful discovery in the heart of L'Aquila's historic center. Refined atmosphere and elegant hospitality, each room has its own charm. Excellent ingredients and service 👌🏻

27/10/2025: Elegance and style, innovation and tradition, expertise and extreme courtesy from the entire staff, expertly led by Massimiliana... These are the "ingredients" that are an integral part of the Scalco menu. You feel at home in this place immersed in art, art that can be felt hanging on the walls, with the ever-changing display of paintings and the tastefully mixed furnishings... and pure art is found in all the dishes offered. The menu is based on Abruzzo tradition revisited with innovation and creativity, from fish to meat... from cuttlefish tagliatelle on a cream of peas and mayonnaise... to chickpea cream with powdered bacon, to lamb with juniper berries... ending with the restaurant's signature dish... the Millefoglie Delfina, an unsurpassed dessert. All this is complemented by an enviable wine cellar. Stefano will accommodate your requests and offer the best advice, perfectly completing the Scalco experience. Because we're not just talking about food here... but a truly complete sensory experience.

14/10/2025: Excellent food! Fast and polite service, family atmosphere, excellent value. I'll definitely be back, and as soon as possible. Definitely on Fridays, they also do fish.

20/09/2025: Top, a guarantee of quality and taste for the area. In a family-friendly and very clean environment. Highly recommended.

18/10/2025: Spending €54.70 seemed completely out of line for: five cheese and egg balls, three fried breaded lamb cutlets, a sautéed chicory, a cream tart, a bottle of cherry wine, and a digestive. If I'd also had an appetizer, would I have spent €70? 🤦🤦🤦🤦

29/09/2025: A wonderful discovery, a warm and friendly welcome, and authentic food. Everything was delicious: cheeses, homemade pasta, arrosticini, and an excellent house Montepulciano wine. A trattoria from another era! A must-try for us when we're in the area! Thanks for everything.

27/09/2025: If you're passing through Roccaraso—winter after skiing or summer after a hike in the Monte Greco woods—don't miss the opportunity to have dinner (or lunch!) at Chi Chi Bio. I stumbled upon it almost by accident and had an excellent food and wine experience. Quality food, knowledgeable staff, and a reasonable wait. I highly recommend it.

21/09/2025: Welcoming location. Highly professional staff. Excellent food, a triumph of flavors and meticulous preparation. We always love returning.
