An outpost at a crossroads in the heart of Grand Sasso, Ristoro Mucciante is a a temple to all things grilled meat!! When in your life are you going to get the chance to grill skewers of lamb, sheep, or pork beneath the huge open sky surrounded by the glory of the Grand Sasso mountains? Welcome to grilling heaven! Walk into the shoppe and wait for one of the very friendly and accommodating butchers to take your order. Point at which meats you want (priced per kilo) and they weight them out and package them in butcher paper. There's also cheeses, typical cured meats, bear, wine, and liquors. Then take your prize outside where row upon row of charcoal grills are set and start your grilling. Paper plates, napkins, plastic flatware, and salt are all provided by the house, as are picnic tables to enjoy your feast once the fire has touched your treats to your liking. If you like to grill at home as much as I do, you'll love this experience like no other. Of course, the drive in is long...and absolutely gorgeous!! Take the time, travel slow, and enjoy the journey, my friends!!! See you there!!

Cannelloni della casa has multi inner thin layers and crispy outer layer and is filled with spinach and cheese, and it tastes light and very good with the tomato sauce. Pallotte "cacio e ova" is like a cheese ball but not very cheese and has a very addictive meaty taste. The moment we had them, we finished them very quickly. Hope next time we will have chance to stop by for the sheep skews and other things on the menu!

Exceptionally friendly service (in excellent English), tasty eats, and a nice wine list. The arrosticini was delicious. Order by the piece (and when your waiter suggests 10 per person, believe him!) and use your teeth to pull the tasty bits of lamb off the skewer. With a bottle of montepulciano d'abruzzo? Scrumptious!
