About a week before the Lockdown in Italy. ..We had a lovely lunch at this restaurant .. I believe on March 5, 2020!!
I have walked by this restaurant when I'm doing my exercise routine for several hours along the Ostia coast and said to myself, When family comes in from the US I want to go there... I was not disappointed. We were a party of two they were very gracious, they understood my brutto Italiano..extremely gentile/ courteous. We started with pizza (marinara sauce and crust were delicious) and fried filetto dì bacala ... We saw the cozze/mussels go by to another table and had to order them too. The food is great, especially the mussels and bacala were outstanding.
We plan to try the spaghetti vongole/spaghetti and clam sauce --as we saw many Italians order it. We seemed to be the only Americans--everyone was Italian, there were lovely Italian families, couples and groups of ladies lunching together ...
Our waiter was very very nice. The staff was very attentive, without being overbearing, and very very welcoming.
Once we left the table, I realized I had forgotten my scarf at the table, returned immediately and theItalian ladies lunching at the next table spoke to me kindly but rapidly --which I understood that the waiter had the scarf. He saw me and explained in Italian that he tried to look for me and he put away safely in a beautiful china cabinet for my return...
Like I said a lovely experience ----beautiful Views, close to the Pontile...I would highly recommend it.
The view is beautiful it looks over the Mediterranean sea and the prices are very affordable and the quality was top notch!!! Bravo a Edone!! read more
