I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Pescara

07/03/2026: It's a shame because the fish is tasty (except for the raw scampi with the intestinal fillet still in it...), the place is nice, and the lady who served us was very kind. BUT: We had dinner for five people. Two bottles of wine, averaging €25-30 each. A three-person raw fish appetizer (€30 per person, if I'm not mistaken, 5 or 6 mini plates). A fried fish platter to share between two people, which was supposed to be mixed seafood, but instead only consisted of scampi and calamari, and was tiny (with small vegetables—not requested, perhaps for bulk?) and a fish main course to share between two people. Basically, we ate very little. Total (made by the chef, not the lady who took the orders) €275, with a clumsy final attempt to make it €290 with incorrect and embarrassing calculations when dividing the dish at the cash register. All this without providing a receipt or allowing us to verify how much was actually cooked. A masterclass in how to ensure customers never return. Great job, this is also a business model. Hats off! 👏🏼

04/02/2026: Fantastic restaurant. Exceptional value. Lovely atmosphere and truly excellent fresh fish. This is my second time here. Highly recommended.

27/09/2025: Everything perfect, everything good and fast service, recommended

03/03/2026: Let me start by saying that we've been customers for a long time, and I'm even more indignant about how we were treated on Sunday morning. We ordered a gluten-free baguette, which was half-cooked and not re-ripened like other times. We pointed this out to the waitress at the outside tables, who, annoyed, took it away, saying, "I'll change it for you." She never came back, continued serving all the tables that arrived after us, and didn't even serve us anything, not even our coffees. After 20 minutes, we gave up and left FOREVER.

28/02/2026: Really good, everyone very professional

07/01/2026: I was there for lunch, so I didn't see the hotel rooms. The atmosphere was welcoming, albeit a bit retro (which I like...), and the food was good and well-presented. I'll definitely be back.

16/10/2025: A little expensive for the area and for everything else

17/01/2026: We've been having breakfast here for years, everything is excellent. There's also a diner recommended by friends, we'll definitely go there.

24/12/2025: Good coffee, always served with a small dessert, be it a cream puff, a cacionetto (a small cake), or a biscuit—a little treat. The desserts, especially the maritozzo, are delicious. I also like their rustici (a type of pastry), mini pizzas, and puff pastry fiadoni (a kind of puff pastry).

26/10/2025: I'm giving the service one star out of solidarity. You can't wait 3/4 of an hour for 4 bruschetta and a tray of cold cuts for two people, and the same for the first courses. We gave up the mixed roast, otherwise we would have left after 4 pm. It's a shame because the first courses were excellent and plentiful. I'm curious to know what happened in the kitchen, because the two waitresses were quick to serve.

19/10/2025: Tasty local cuisine, excellent value for money, generous portions.

12/11/2025: When we were there in November, the taverna was closed. However, you can stay overnight for free. The beach is great.

08/11/2025: Ristorante Positano is one of those places that, every time you return, reminds you why you love authentic seafood. Located on the Pescara seafront, the restaurant enjoys a prime location, with a direct view of the Adriatic and an atmosphere that combines elegance and familiarity: the sound of the waves in the background, the aroma of fresh fish, and attentive, smiling service. The attention to detail is evident from the first moment. The dining room is bright, tastefully furnished without being overly pretentious, and reflects the typical Amalfi Coast flavor that the restaurant's name evokes. The table setting is neat, simple yet refined, and the staff moves naturally and courteously, always ready to offer advice and make guests feel at ease, offering precise directions on dishes, and always attentive and punctual service. The cuisine remains the restaurant's true strength. Everything is prepared with quality ingredients and a perfect balance between tradition and flavor. From the seafood crudités, always fresh and carefully presented, to the first courses like spaghetti with clams or seafood chitarra pasta, not to mention the scampi-based dishes like mezza manica and spaghettone—dishes that taste like the real sea, without overpowering anything with unnecessary sauces. The second courses are also worth a mention: the grilled fish is impeccable, as is the fried fish, cooked just right to preserve tenderness and enhance the raw ingredients. The service is quick, coordinated, and courteous. The staff maintains a familiar yet professional tone, making guests feel welcomed, not simply served. It's clear that there's passion and consistency here: each visit confirms the previous one, without a drop in quality or attention. The quality-price ratio is fair, especially considering the location and the freshness of the ingredients. The well-constructed wine list also offers choices to complement every dish, with a predominance of labels from Abruzzo and Campania, perfect for pairing with seafood. In short: Ristorante Positano is a must-visit for those seeking a genuine, consistent, and high-quality seafood experience in Pescara. It's rare to find places that maintain the same level of quality and friendliness over time, but here it happens. A place to keep in mind, and above all, one to return to.

30/10/2025: Their coffee is not drunk too cold

16/10/2025: The best maritozzi with cream on the planet, always super fresh, large, soft, like an impalpable cloud to be savored slowly... Just like the rest of the bakery. The delightful girls, the relaxed atmosphere. Absolutely everything is better than the other place in Pescara, there's no comparison! What can I say, never without it again! ❤️

26/01/2026: I highly recommend Bar Centrale!!! Excellent breakfast both mornings of my stay in Penne. Very kind, professional, and empathetic staff. Fast and well-prepared service. Constantly clean and hygienic. Good value for money. I will definitely be back. Thank you.

29/11/2025: New management at Penne's historic Bar Centrale. The changes Dante, the new manager, is making are already evident. But I'm sure the best is yet to come. In the meantime...applause!

12/01/2026: Quick but enjoyable meal. I was in a hurry, and the staff minimized the wait time, creating a menu that exceeded my expectations. Kudos to the staff and their responsiveness. I will definitely return with more time and peace of mind to try their specialties. Good luck, and always like this.

09/11/2025: If I could, I wouldn't give it a single star. I ordered a Too Good to Go from their bar, which said it was available from 12:30 to 1:00 PM. I arrived at 12:40-1:45 PM and found the place completely closed, with all the chairs and things piled up. I requested a refund. If the owners can't maintain such hours for order pickup, then they shouldn't do it, and leave this kind of thing alone, as it's not their strong point.

06/12/2025: A little expensive, but delicious!!!!!!

04/09/2025: Nice restaurant I went to eat the pecorino cheese called Callare, delicious. I recommend it to everyone. Plus, the maltagliati with chickpeas and pancetta was excellent.

21/01/2026: I don't like giving negative reviews, but this place definitely deserves it. Two of us arrived; my partner can't eat tomato, but we thought, "Won't that be a problem, given the wide selection on the menu?" Once we'd made our choice, to our surprise, we were told they'd only be making 4 or 5 dishes from the entire menu that day. So, it wasn't possible to make two ravioli—one with tomato and one with mushrooms—since they already had the sauces ready, boiling 10 ravioli together and then seasoning them differently would probably have been too much effort for them. In any case, both the ravioli and the gnocchi arrived after 5 minutes, undercooked because they were still raw and cold inside, and the sauce was completely separate from the pasta. Within 15 minutes, we were at the cash register, and since no one was there anyway, the rude owner even teased us, saying "See you next time." A totally negative experience, one to forget.

26/12/2025: Typical mountain restaurant with authentic food and reasonable prices. Recommended.

20/02/2026: Food, service, quality and price totally aligned

19/02/2026: We went to this place after dinner to celebrate and only asked for something to snack on with our drinks. The receipt, in fact, states "aperitivo tanto per..." (just for..."), so we were served taralli and pretzels, which we thought was absolutely correct. The problem is that the waiter added three portions of fries and one arancini each to our order, without us asking for them. When the fries arrived, I immediately went to tell him not to bring anything else, because we were there for an after-dinner drink, NOT FOR DINNER, but I was told that the arancini would arrive anyway because they were already cooking. I stated that we didn't want them, but was told they couldn't remove them from the order. When paying, the receipt clearly stated "3 arancini" and "3 fries," dishes we never ordered! When I explained the situation, I was told that this is what "tasting" means to them and that perhaps the waiter should have mentioned it earlier. I find this behavior unfair and lacking transparency: it's unacceptable to be charged for dishes you didn't request or agree to. A negative experience that ruined what was supposed to be a festive evening.

13/10/2025: Excellent food! From appetizers to dessert. More than good value for money.

12/10/2025: I had dinner a few weeks ago with some colleagues, and we had such a great time that today the whole family came for lunch. The dishes are from the ancient culinary tradition of Teramo, beautifully prepared, with generous, high-quality dishes, and some portions were taken home, all at a reasonable price. The welcome was family-like, as in the best tradition...
