Rating: 88/100 pts…read more Fate brought me to Alla Voliga when I was in search of good local food, and the meal certainly did not disappoint. I walked in just as they were opening for lunch, and being the only customer in what looked more like the deck of a ship than a restaurant, I actually wasn't sure if I was in the right spot until a few minutes of waiting when the owner popped out of the kitchen and led me to a table. "We have the best fish soup in Trieste, and the second best in Italy," he tells me proudly. I peruse the Italian-only menu and understand almost none of it. While not confident in his own English skills, the owner patiently gave me a few other non-soup recommendations. I ended up settling on the "little of this, little of that" seafood combo. Out came a fantastic platter of sardine, barley-mixed octopus, olive-mixed squid, oysters, and about 5 other things that he didn't know the English for and that I couldn't identify. Everything tasted like it had been freshly caught that morning. It also came with bread, and a huge slice of polenta, which to this day is the best polenta I've ever had. Prices were very reasonable, and I'd definitely go back next time I find myself in Trieste...even if it's just to try that seafood soup that hindsight tells me I probably should have ordered.

We ordered scallops al gratin for an appetizer; grilled squid, shrimp, and octopus with polenta; and gnocchi in beef stew. The gnocchi was disappointing (too soft/ mushy) but all of the seafood was delicious. Anyway, we were here mostly for the view & atmosphere (only couples were dining at the tables around us) and this restaurant definitely has that down!

A note: We waited a long time for the check, before realizing that you need to go to the cash register to pay; you provide your table number and the cashier recites the items you bought and tells you the total. Tips go into a tip can at the cash register.
