Very nice ambience wherever you decide to stay, whether outdoors in the front by the Baroque Church or in their beautiful internal garden, or in their dining room inside. Food was excellent with quality ingredients, expertise in combining flavours that clearly comes from decades of homemade cooking style this family-run venue is famous for. A place where the locals flock and as you taste the flavours you understand why. Homemade pasta with mushrooms and truffles, grilled meats and an excellent pizza selection right out of a wood-burning oven, La Taverna offers something for all tastes. Service was quite attentive and could be improved. All in all, a lovely wine & dine experience in one of Pescara's loveliest 17th century quarters. Will certainly return.

Yummmm!!! The best!!…read more My family is from Arpino!! The most amazing town you've never heard of or been to in Italy :) Mainly because we'd know about it If any English speaking tourists ever come through here! Most people can't speak it! And we know every single person in town!! So this!!! This restaurant!! It's been there!! Probably for all my every year visit for a good 12 years now! I only rave out it so much!! Built before Rome was built! 4000 years old castle! Cobble stone roads! One bar, one butcher shop, agriturissimos, best produce, magical place of everyone know when I visit town! :) I've never been out to a restaurant when I visit because we have families and they pretty much feed you 2 hours long breakfast, 4 hours lunches and 4 hours dinners!! It's a feast marathon!! And if we do go out, we go out to one place that grow everything on the property for my favorite: lamb!! Gnocchi! Etc!! It's a lavish 12-14 course meals!! Came here because we had that lavish lunch for 4 hours! And Italy was playing that night! Everyone wanted to go to a bar and eat sandwiches, salami! Of course! I need a pasta! So viola!! Made it to the only pizzeria in town!!! Almost didn't get to eat it since they were so busy!!! But wow!! The menu!! I love how small it was but also how big!! 6-8 types of pizza, one pasta!! One!! One steak, one something else. And a lot of fun desserts!! One very frustrated waitress!! 2 rooms full of customers!! It was perfect!!! Nobody ate pasta since we were all eating light!! Well except me! My pasta was AHMAZING!! It's just a tomato pasta!!! Plain and simple!! No nothing else!! And I actually finished my food for once!!! The house made peppers were the best part!!! I've never been so happy to not eat at home before!! Crazy!! And crazier thing!! I really don't have a clue how much anything cost here ever!! I can't buy or pay for a single thing whenever I'm here!! Not even a cup of coffee!! I'm never allowed!! My family takes care of everything. This one being a restaurant! I saw the prices!! It was a €6 pasta!!! €6!! I always come for a month here. I spent a whole month in Europe: from Paris to San Sebastián to Capri to all over Italy!! And this! €6 pasta was the most memorable pasta pomodoro in entire month!!!!! Best in all of May! June! And even now!! Shame I won't be able to go back! I mean! Homefood!! It was the best!! Oh and wine pour right out of their barrels!! Wine by weight!!!! €4 get you a goblet!!!!! :)

Prenota se andate il weekend, questo posto caratteristico e sfizioso è conosciuto bene in zona. Possibly the best pizza I've had in my life. Their menu is extensive, with an impressive variety of specialty pizzas. I had the multi-grain artichoke pie, which was other-worldly; the perfect balance between dough, crust and toppings, hearty and crusty but light! Each piece was delicious from start to finish. Highly recommended. If you plan to go on a weekend - especially Saturday night - go early or make sure you have a reservation.

Small, cozy, and elegant. We ordered the seafood salad, pepata di cozze, fritti di calamari e gamberi, and gnocchi verde with clams and shrimp. The seafood salad was the left down of the meal as you think a seafood salad will include seafood. Other than that the food was delicious!! The mussels were super fresh and so good!!! The fried calamari and shrimp were fresh and super good. Overall a really good experience
