I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Macerata

06/06/2026: A delightful, welcoming little place. Mouth-watering food, freshly caught fish that morning. Luigi, the owner, delighted us not only with the good food... but also with wine pairings from various regions. I know a truly top-notch little place.

02/06/2026: Excellent restaurant in Porto Potenza Picena. Well-prepared dishes, very attentive service. The wine list features small labels not often found in restaurants. Prices are average for a seaside town. For four of us, we spent €180, including four appetizers, three first courses, a second course, and a nice bottle of Franciacorta. The quality of the dishes and the service are worth the expense. A place worth trying. Enjoy your meal!

17/07/2025: I'm mortified to write this review, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed. I came for the fish, but both the mussels (mushy and floury) and the scampi (grey and dry inside) were awful and tasted like they were stale. Plus, they were drowned in sauce! What a shame! Especially since it wasn't cheap. The service was good, and it's a casual restaurant.

15/07/2025: We had lunch a few days ago during our vacation in Porto Recanati, and what can I say? Excellent fish, as well as meat dishes. Delicious desserts. Generous portions and excellent value! Friendly and helpful staff. Recommended for anyone passing through the area who wants to eat well in a casual setting. Plus, our four-legged friend was able to keep us company during lunch, which is a real plus.

25/05/2026: All the desserts are good, the availability and competence do the rest

10/05/2026: The best pizza! We've tried a lot of places, but Adriatica is a total delight.

01/05/2026: A little expensive in my opinion

23/04/2026: Few times in my life have I eaten so badly we stopped at the first one and immediately ran away

22/05/2026: Great food. Relatively expensive. Beautiful village

18/05/2026: Simple, honest, and good. A classic Italian village inn, now run by the third generation. All the secondi (there are only four meat dishes available as secondi) are cooked to perfection on the grill by the owner's 80-year-old father and served by him. Vegetarians will still find plenty of antipasti and primi, so they certainly won't be disappointed. Talking to the owner and his father, you can sense the passion and pride with which the family runs the restaurant. The ingredients are local and high-quality, and the cuisine is simple, authentic, and incredibly delicious. I highly recommend it.

31/03/2026: Typical restaurant, good food...

31/03/2026: Best place in the area, all in all. I could write so much more, but it's much better to go in person and draw your own conclusions. 😁🍝

21/12/2025: A magical haven: the sea in the heart of Sant’Egidio "Il Postiglione" Montecassiano. (Mc) In a rapidly changing and ever-faster world, it warms the heart to discover that the scent of the sea can reach the hills of Sant’Egidio di Montecassiano, intact and sincere. There are still places capable of stopping time, and this restaurant is proof of that. At the helm of this kitchen is Chef Roberta Chiacchera, whose hands seem to know the deepest secrets of the sea. Hers is a rare skill, made of precise gestures and a touching humility: she doesn't use technology to distort, but to protect the soul of fresh fish. Each of her dishes is a tale of beauty and simplicity, where love is felt in every bite because it is the ingredient she adds first, even before salt. Next to her, the light and beauty of Martina fills the room. He is the personification of dedication: a discreet yet essential presence, capable of moving with a grace that transforms work into art. His skill lies in his ability to understand every desire, with the simplicity typical of those who deeply love what they do. In the dining room, Andrea's experience is the finishing touch to this magic. With him, hospitality isn't just a profession, but a hug. His professionalism is interwoven with an old-fashioned kindness; *Andrea doesn't simply wait tables, but takes guests on a journey, explaining fish with the respect due to a precious treasure. Together, they form a wonderful team that deserves every compliment. Between elegantly furnished rooms and an atmosphere that exudes home and excellence, the experience is simply magical. A heartfelt thank you to these guardians of taste who, with their simplicity, remind us how beautiful life can be over a heartfelt dish of fresh Adriatic fish. There are places capable of stopping time, where the table becomes that intangible cultural heritage that UNESCO recognizes as the profound soul of our Italy: an inextricable intertwining of biodiversity, social ritual, and know-how.

13/12/2025: We went on December 5th for a dinner with old school friends: in addition to the sublime food, the courtesy, attentiveness, and patience of the waiter Giona made the evening memorable. The price was reasonable. Definitely worth repeating.

09/12/2025: Very nice and simple restaurant, with a 1980s feel. Good food and a clean atmosphere. Friendly staff and fair prices. Recommended.

02/11/2025: Traditional dishes from the Marche region Even game Very good

23/04/2026: Small place on a central street in Macerata. I've had takeout many times and find the quality and flavor truly excellent. They make everything freshly made and have a wide selection of sandwiches, toasted sandwiches, salads, and appetizers. The owner is very quick, friendly, and always willing to make any changes requested. There are two small benches outside, perfect for takeout or a quick lunch!

23/03/2026: Excellent restaurant, we had a tasting menu, and two bottles, everything was fine until the last course, sea bass with prized black truffle, came out of the kitchen without truffle, and what we were told was the waiter's fault,... Absolutely the waiter should have warned us, but the kitchen shouldn't have sent out an unintelligible dish because they hadn't found the truffle and on Monday they would have been closed so... PS... The dish was incomplete, but the manager still made us pay for what wasn't there... Very rude and unprofessional... €95 of disappointment.... They got lost in a glass of water... I would have paid even €100....

09/03/2026: A very positive experience. The refined atmosphere offers a wealth of customer service. Attentive and refined service. The cuisine has a lovely personality. If you're in the mood for a first course, you absolutely must try the gnocchi, which have a spectacular smoked finish. Congratulations for your passion and expertise.

06/05/2026: May 2026, an "Almost Dinner" aperitif among "longtime" friends after the theater...excellent for the welcome, the location, the excellent food, the right amount, the good value, the discretion, the expertise, the professionalism, the taste, the elegance, and the originality of the owners. Thanks to whoever introduced me to it. I will definitely return to share a pleasant evening with dear friends. Tixi 62

02/02/2026: We arrived at Ars Vivendi (Nico). A beautiful place. The host gave us a warm and human welcome, knowledgeable and immediately empathetic. As suggested, I asked the host Nico for wine recommendations. He suggested a wonderful Lambrusco. He welcomed us with an entrée of pumpkin pie, also a sinful treat. Then came Ascoli olives, artisanal cremini, lentil, farro, and pumpkin soup, and crostini. I forgot about the panciotti, with eggplant and scamorza. And finally, my wife noticed that Laura, in the kitchen, had just baked some cantuccini. They were excellent. In keeping with ancient, but never outdated, traditions. A lovely evening.

11/06/2026: Unfortunately, no pizza available until 7 pm. However, the set menu was very good, even though I'm not a big fan of seafood. The food was delicious, and the seaside setting was fantastic. Highly recommended.

18/05/2026: For many years now, I have been enjoying the impeccable dishes at Bebos every summer. The chef is extraordinary, his food is divine, and all the staff are excellent and polite.

05/04/2026: Very good pizza, fair price, friendly staff

03/03/2026: Old-fashioned place, delicious food and wonderful staff

22/02/2026: Found by chance: a real find! Excellent food, fresh fish, a rotisserie with the option of eating in. Simple but clean place. I absolutely recommend it. Excellent value for money too. I'll definitely be back. We had a wonderful meal!

03/02/2026: Returned after several years and it's nice to find the same quality combined with simplicity. We had an excellent fish first course and appetizer, and then it was nice to be able to sit down like in a trattoria. Very friendly staff and many dishes both for takeout and to eat in! Excellent! Thank you!

04/05/2026: Very kind staff, excellent food and a wonderful view surrounded by nature.

30/04/2026: What will probably excite you about this place is the location, nestled in the Marche hills, rich in nature and silence! The kindness and hospitality of the staff and the quality/variety of the food are equally impressive. In short, why miss out on a place like this?
