We enjoyed a cured meat and cheese platter and several orders of gnoccchi. They also have plenty of pizza options that I would try on my next visit that looked absolutely delicious. We did not have a reservation so we experienced a short wait of 10 minutes for dinner around 20:00. I recommend calling ahead for a reservation if you have a larger party. The staff was very friendly and thankfully spoke enough English to cater to the tourist crowd from the hotels.

I've been coming to this hotel and restaurant for several years, and the service and food have…read morealways been wonderful. The staff is especially friendly and helpful, and the food has always been exceptional! In the past, the meal started with a nice variety of breads and chips at the table, so I was a little disappointed to see that replaced with a small bag of bread pieces. For my starter, I ordered the mixed fried fish. It was excellent--fresh, crispy, and delicious. My only disappointment was the lack of a good dipping sauce. Something like marinara, aioli, or another house-made sauce would have been perfect. The only options available were ketchup and mayonnaise, which seemed a little underwhelming for such a wonderful dish. For my entrée, I ordered the spaghetti with anchovies. Unfortunately, this course was a big disappointment. It looked wonderful when it arrived, but it just didn't live up to the expectations set by the many excellent meals I've had here over the years. The pasta was a bit too al dente for my taste, and overall, the dish simply didn't deliver the flavor or enjoyment I was expecting. I still have very fond feelings about this restaurant and hope tonight was simply an off night. Unfortunately, I didn't get a photo of the entree, but it was beautiful!

In short, a wonderful and unexpected experience. Small/quaint town, a few pubs and a couple of…read morecasual restaurants. Connected to a lovely hotel, it has a captive audience for hotel guests because there just isn't much else. However, it's a lot more than this. Locals and businessmen come here...because it is really good. AMBIANCE/ENERGY/VIBE: it has it in abundance. Goodness all around. SERVICE: super friendly, super nice. Everyone at least attempts to speak various degrees of English, and is a willing participant. Staffed appropriately, there was always someone in the near distance to flag down. Did I say very nice? They are. Shout our to Fabio, who was super sweet, extremely likeable, talkative, and very helpful. FOOD: I tried a number of things, coming here both nights I stayed at the Hotel. The menu has 55 types of pizza (which is cray cray, and the website says over 100 types), salads, entrees such as various seafood & a couple of steaks, veal Milanese, pastas, and desserts. They have a full bar, wine, and beer. Lots of good things to try and choose from. 1. Mixed Salad [5 E, 5.0 stars] -- super fresh, totally delish. 2. Mixed Vegetables [5 E, 4.5 stars] -- a small plate of grilled vegetables, eggplant, zucchini, yellow & red peppers, and endive. 3. Tagliatelle Black Truffle [15 E, 4.5 stars] -- the gf and I split the dish, and they were nice enough to divide it into two in the kitchen...perfectly enough and good overall portion. Truffle pieces were a little tough, but wonderful overall. 4. Ricottina Pizza [10 E, 4.5 stars] -- Tomato, Mozzarella cheese, Fresh Ricotta, Sausage, dried tomatoes and rocket salad. Amazing crust, loved the toppings. 5. La Milanese [20 E, 4.0 stars] -- large piece with bone-in, perfectly fried served with freshly fried potatoes. 6. Mixed Gelato [5 E, 5.0 stars] -- chocolate, crema, lemon -- all amazing and housemade, but the lemon was best, tasted like lemon crème. 7. Panne Cotta with Berries [5 E, 4.5 stars] -- if you like this normally, it's quite wonderful. Totally worthy. OVERALL: I'll miss it. Very worthy and memorable, mostly the people. For this area, it's a 5.0 star experience.

Also worth noting for us foreign travels, most of the employees here spoke good English and were extremely polite and helpful! Hope to visit again soon! Salute!

We were lucky to be seated outside after about a 10 minute wait on a busy Friday evening. Our server Lucco was very sweet and though very busy did his best to be attentive. We started with sparkling water, proseccos, margherita pizza and a salad. Those were delivered promptly. Next I ordered the linguine frutti di mare which was sooo delicious and the seafood was so fresh (prawns, mussels, scallops). However, there was an unsavory taste left in our mouths after my friend's food had hair in it and she asked to return it to the kitchen. A lady server came over and aggressively insisted that the hair belonged to my friend because it had to be "extensions". This was an unpleasant experience to say the least My friend declined another dish from the kitchen and we shared my pasta which we both enjoyed but I'm sad she wasn't able to enjoy her meal. Overall, we still really enjoyed the food we did try.
