I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Macerata

14/10/2025: The piñata is the best. Starters are top-notch. Second courses are top-notch. Prices are top-notch.

06/10/2025: Nothing to complain about the quality or the location, but the service needs updating: over two hours for a first course and a fried dish, an hour waiting just for the first course, and then a prompt. Completely forgotten, as they were serving the later tables first. They say they were short on waiters, but from the reviews, it's clear that's happened before.

01/10/2025: Given the imminent irritation from the restaurant manager after my review, I'm filling in the missing details: Ordered takeout on July 26, 2025. Six pizzas; decent pizzas, really, really small. The dough balls will weigh roughly 130-150g. For the price of a regular pizza, you'd expect at least 200-220g per pizza. Dear owner, learn to accept criticism and rethink your customer service methods. You're the only one frustrated here. We customers write reviews when we want, not when you decide!!! Make the dough balls bigger and you'll see the fear go away! Good luck.

11/08/2025: I've stopped for dinner at Pizzeria Itaca several times, and each time I've tried different dishes: from fried snacks to various types of pizza, each with unique toppings, often even gourmet. I've always been very satisfied with the dishes I've chosen. Furthermore, the team is very young and friendly: they're always friendly and always have a smile. For a good pizza or a quick, casual dinner, this is the place to be. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

30/09/2025: The ice cream is good, but a bit expensive.

23/08/2025: I give it 3 stars, and I'm sorry. The quality of the gelato deserves 5 stars, but the service was truly disappointing. We waited almost an hour for someone to take our order, but in the end I had to go to the counter and get the gelato myself. It's a real shame: I wanted an affogato, but I had to settle for a simple cone. Only after an hour and a quarter did the very kind waiter come over to ask if we needed anything...

12/10/2025: Dinner with friends. We tried the fried food, the meat, and the pizza. Everything was delicious. The service was very helpful and friendly, and the prices were reasonable. I recommend it!

08/10/2025: This is one of the worst restaurant we have ever been, bad food, bad service, but the worst part is that the owner had and obviously the employees have a very mean and rude attitude. We ask for our receipt and they denied it. Ugly, expensive, and very bad food! For sure will never recommend it.

31/08/2025: Bad experience. Please don't come in if you have a dog, they'll look at you like you're walking an alien. Your four-legged friends won't be welcome here. They sat us down as if they were doing us a favor. There were only two tables, but it looked like they had to feed five hundred people. Organization was lacking. The food was average, except for the burnt black roast. I'm glad I never come back.

08/08/2025: Divine lunch, spaghetti with clams, shelled mussels, courgettes, courgette flowers, all very fresh, creamy, Michelin-starred, sea bass fillet from a thousand and one nights, highly recommended👏

13/09/2025: Oh dear! After waiting a good TWO HOURS for two platters, they brought us a picanha that had the same consistency as the play dough I used to play with as a child. And yet they still charged us the modest sum of €37 per person. If they're not organized enough to handle all these places, they should sell the tables and put flower pots on them!

21/08/2025: The location is not bad, the service and food are all good. The prices are fair. I had dinner there three days in a row and will return again as soon as I have the chance.

23/09/2025: Simple, affordable, and clean. Family-run. Very kind and helpful staff. An excellent choice.

06/08/2025: Excellent restaurant very professional and friendly

13/09/2025: Small ice cream place in the centre of Sarnano, L'Oasi del Gelato offers an ample choice of flavours and the one we tried proved to be averagely good, with a special mention for liquorice and Sacher. Service is efficient and prices fair for the ice cream quality. Recommended.

13/08/2025: Enjoy your ice cream, with vegan alternatives like fruit or dark chocolate!

01/10/2025: We stayed here for two nights. The location is truly fantastic. Wonderfully quiet! You can reach the center of Racanati by car in just 5 minutes. We were given a small apartment in the annex. The furnishings clearly indicate that it has been in use for some time. The bed wasn't immediately comfortable. A mattress topper would have worked wonders. When you shower, you have to wait at least 5 minutes for hot water to come on. However, I must admit, the price of €72.00 per night is a steal. And that includes breakfast—albeit an Italian breakfast, cake, yogurt, and some simple bread. But with a delicious cappuccino. You can also eat here in the evenings. All in all, considering the price, an excellent place to stay. And last but not least, the people are very friendly.

19/09/2025: Stunning complex on the hill near Recanati. Comfortable and clean apartment, generous buffet breakfast, large pool under the olive trees. Attentive and courteous staff. Excellent!!!

13/10/2025: Suitable for both lunch and dinner. I recommend the excellent house-made first courses. The atmosphere is clean and the service is fast.

12/09/2025: Prices too high for the quality of the food

19/09/2025: Of course, we can only review the dishes we actually ate. The chef's pasta is highly recommended. Penne with small olives in a delicious sauce—truly delicious. The pizza diavolo I ordered the next day was, unfortunately, nothing special. The dough was too dry, and otherwise not very flavorful. Fortunately, the service was friendly and attentive. And the view is phenomenal.

25/08/2025: The food quality is very good, with fresh, well-cooked fish. The atmosphere is very pleasant, with a pleasant view that gives the impression of eating on a terrace. Unfortunately, the staff was cold and annoyed with every request, partially ruining the experience. With a more friendly welcome, this would have been a restaurant I would recommend without hesitation.

10/09/2025: Great for a quick lunch, I recommend arriving before 1pm, as you might find a bit of a queue.

10/08/2025: Self-service with a wide selection at truly affordable prices! I discovered it through catering for a private party, so I also appreciated the very attentive table service! Highly recommended.

06/10/2025: We were there this summer on holiday. We happened to be there on a holiday and had a blast. The fried food was decent and the cocktails were good! See you next time.

15/09/2025: A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH THE APARTMENT, HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED: On September 2, 2025, we notified the VirgolaZero1 apartment (available for pets) of our departure and estimated arrival time (booking from September 2 to September 7). Upon arrival, a young man showed us into the apartment, which wasn't exactly the one shown in the photos in the ad. From the outside, everything was dilapidated, but OK. Upon entering, we found: - the apartment was not clean (dirty refrigerator, cobwebs, greasy kitchen with stains from previous cooking, bathroom with urine and hair stains, only a sheet in the bedroom, and in the closet-like space above, we found old shoes abandoned in addition to dirt). I had to clean the toilet myself with sanitizing wipes to use it after a 400km drive. - one set of towels was missing (one for two adults), which we asked for and were told they would provide it the next morning. - we noticed that toilet paper was missing, which we asked for but never received a response. Having noted the lack of correspondence from the staff, we decided to leave the apartment the following morning (September 3). At approximately 11:00 AM, with no response to previous messages, we texted the same number that we were about to leave the apartment, asking where or with whom we could leave the keys. The guy from the previous evening showed up only after reading that we were requesting a refund through Booking.com (we pointed out that they hadn't contacted us up until that point). The guy tried to justify himself and negotiate, but they were adamant. He accused us of "cheating to get a refund" and that the dogs had left too much mess and that it would cost "€100 for cleaning." I pointed out that it was just hair loss, which was expected given the pet-friendly policy. I offered to leave a broom (which I had previously searched for but was missing) to remove the hair from the floor, but he replied that it wasn't necessary. He told us that the night before he had tried to contact Booking.com because of the dogs. I reiterated that the ad says pets are welcome without an additional fee. Shortly after leaving the apartment, a man called us (via the VirgolaZero1 restaurant's phone number) and introduced himself as the owner. He rudely and sarcastically accused us of bringing "two camels." When I suggested we'd come back and just remove the hair from the floor, saying he'd find the place cleaner than we found it, he asked me if we had any evidence of the dirt. When I said yes (photos and video), he hung up on me. We're following up with Booking.com, but obviously, the "gentlemen" aren't answering Booking.com's calls.

06/07/2025: Well-kept and welcoming place but inedible brioche and mignon. Mignon cannoli with hard and dry cream almost non-existent, cream puffs with hard and pasty cream.. exaggerated cost!

28/04/2025: I can only describe this place in one word: hospitality, food, service, and ambiance. PERFECT
