I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in L'aquila

03/01/2026: The food is also good for the price, but the waits are excruciating, and the service is arrogant and unwilling to resolve even the smallest issue. Reserved for five for a match, I placed my order with the waiter before kickoff. 90 minutes of play, 15 minutes of halftime, and 13 minutes of injury time in total weren't enough for the honor of enjoying dessert after the incredibly long order that included two Caprese salads, two pizzas, a spaghetti dish, and a fried mozzarella, all to be brought in at the same time. Dessert was ordered in the 70th minute, but in the 94th minute I asked for it not to be brought, only to have it arrive as we were leaving, even attempting to get it on the bill, even retorting that they had already had it prepared. Worth noting is the achievement of the 2 Caprese salads, as they are the first restaurant to achieve the feat of simultaneously adding and removing eggs from the plate (which are listed on the written and photo-based menu, but not on the plate). Every time something was pointed out, instead of quickly resolving the issue, they always tried to argue back, making every interaction unpleasant. Next time I'm in Avezzano, I'll watch the match at home on DAZN.

23/11/2025: Family atmosphere, excellent food.

02/11/2025: Welcoming and friendly. Delicious arrosticini. Family atmosphere and friendly staff.

15/10/2025: Delicious arrosticini, family-friendly atmosphere! Quick service! I hope to return, highly recommended!

07/02/2026: Delicious veal steak and excellent service from Fabio, I recommend it!

07/02/2026: Fabio was an incredible host! We had a perfect veal steak for two. We'll be back!

24/02/2026: Terrible Bombardino, served in a plastic cup, very small portion.

15/01/2026: It took me a while to write this review! Unfortunately, I have to say, I haven't eaten like this in I don't know how long! I should start by saying I don't think there was a chef in the kitchen. We sat down with two friends. Among us was a vegetarian, but that didn't seem like a problem from the start, but then... We ordered a trio of bruschetta and two Neapolitan frittatas! TRIO OF BRUSCHETTE: The dish arrived was truly nonsensical. Three slices of bread that hadn't even seen the grill (Wikipedia: It consists of a slice of stale bread, either grilled or oven-roasted), spread with a canned product. The two frittatas were delicious! We ordered three tagliolini with truffle, and here comes the apotheosis. This fresh pasta (not tagliolini) arrived, tossed with the same truffle sauce as the bruschetta. We went to pay, and the bill was hefty. I'm a foodie and I always say: When you eat well, the price doesn't matter. When you eat badly, you're wasting your money! Friendly waiter An evening to forget

01/01/2026: Restaurant Delicious food with lots of variety

27/08/2025: I didn't have the pleasure of enjoying the food due to the owner's total inability to handle the unexpected event of an impromptu demonstration by ultra-citizen fans who sat on the laps of the unfortunate customers outside and who had to flee, paying for the inconvenience suffered.

21/08/2025: Excellent vegetarian pinsa: very light pasta and perfect sauce. Excellent service and friendly staff.

02/11/2025: We had a wonderful horseback ride with Gerardino, who made you feel at ease. Wonderful family-run business, they manage to convey their passion for animals. We'll definitely be back, great prices! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🔝

02/11/2025: I can't judge the quality of the food because I didn't eat. But the experience wasn't satisfactory. After the horseback ride, some of the group wanted to eat arrosticini, there were 10 of us in total. Only 4 of us ate. Only 4 people were seated; the rest were standing and had brought packed lunches since arrosticini weren't served. Those sitting at the table ordered arrosticini, beer, and a scamorza. The table wasn't set, and no glasses were brought. They were sitting on a picnic bench, but again, only 4 people were seated (also because only those 4 people could fit). A cover charge was charged for everyone. 6 people didn't use any service. The problem isn't the money; a 2 euro cover charge won't change anyone's life (we paid 20 euros cover charge, and 4 of us ate), but I don't think this is the right way to behave. Disappointing.

13/09/2025: Group lunch, Terrible experience. It's a shame that the location is wonderful, but the treatment I received is a far cry from that.

12/09/2025: Lunch. Good quality, but the cooking needs improvement: the pork main course wasn't cooked properly, which didn't live up to the quality.

06/09/2025: The COCOS BAR is the ideal choice for a break inside the Riva Verde Water Park. It offers a varied menu ranging from quick dishes like sandwiches and chips to more complete options like seafood specialties and salads. It's a practical and convenient option for refueling without leaving the fun of the park.

21/08/2025: We were guests at Riva Verde and enjoyed this bar. Excellent pizza, excellent service, and very kind and professional staff. I recommend it. Prices are normal.

25/08/2025: We went for dinner. It looked closed before 8 p.m., but there were some people outside who had been going there for a while and told us to wait, saying it would open soon and that it was worth it. Nothing could be more true. We had two first courses and a second course with a side dish. The selection isn't vast, but the atmosphere is homey. The place is warm and welcoming, the staff is friendly and smiling (never take that for granted). The food is healthy and authentic. I would seriously go there every night. Congratulations!

21/08/2025: Excellent food and professional, friendly service. It's a shame about the noise.

25/08/2025: We went on August 16th.......for goodness sake...amatriciana with gnocchi....the tagliata brought to the table made into a stew....Definitely leftover food from the day before....salty bill......

21/08/2025: We had lunch at this fraschetta and had one of the best carbonaras we've ever tasted. For our second course, we had arrosticini, which were also delicious. My compliments for the quality of the cuisine, simple yet delicious.

05/01/2026: Family atmosphere, dishes prepared fresh, homemade pasta, wonderful desserts made by the chef… The food is fantastic

02/01/2026: The wait was so long that the waitress told us she'd forgotten about us... The dishes were generous but the quality was extremely poor. I found a few pieces of broccoli in the mushroom pasta, probably because they were turned with the same utensil. It's a shame because the owner is also nice, but the whole place looks dirty and run-down. 1 main course (sliced ​​steak with arugula), 1 plate of mushroom pasta, and 1 bottle of water, total bill €35...

04/09/2025: For an excellent breakfast or lunch break, I recommend this place. Kindness and friendliness reign supreme. When we return to L'Aquila, it will be our go-to place. Thanks for the hospitality, especially to Emanuela and Pierluigi for the excellent breakfasts.

09/08/2025: Ordinary, at best, for Italy - the risotto was reheated (my wife cooks it better), and although the fusilli with speck and radicchio were tasty, the consistency of the sauce wasn't quite right. We had better experiences - and value - elsewhere.

30/01/2026: Excellent treat for business dinners.

28/12/2025: The pizza was really of poor quality, the dough was half raw, I took a breath, the onion was not cooked, instead the bacon was burnt, also seeing the dishes of other people, the pizzas had also been left by others, even at other tables, slow service but at least the staff was polite, the place instead welcoming, the only flaw a little cold
