Its a Michelin-noted, white tablecloth place with impeccable but cordial service, and a great menu. It's also very popular with locals, many of whom were in evidence, ordering their "usual" dishes. The portions are decently generous, and one of ours came with unexpected bonuses. The quality of the food was always high, and the execution ranged from "good" to "very good". Unfortunately their signature farfalle dish was the one that impressed the least; other dishes we had were more characterful. Great wine list with lots of Local, Italian and some international choices. This is a real Sulmona experience, and worth considering if you'll be in town.

IF YOU GO TO TERMOLI YOU MUST EAT HERE AT LEAST ONCE!!!!!…read more Our family travelled to Termoli Italy to try and find relatives as my grandfather was born in Termoli. We do not speak any Italian and read online that this restaurant was good. Let me be clear...this restaurant is AWESOME!!!! First of all, the people were so nice and helpful. They literally walked us to the municiple building after our meal to help with some translation and also walked us to the best gelato store after our meal. They even called different people to help us try to find our long distance relatives. Second of all the food is out of this world!!!! If you don't know what to order just let them order for you. We had about 15 people in our party and they just kept bringing out different appetizers, main dishes, etc. The short ribs are tremendous but really everything is great. The bill was very resonable and the place is also very kid friendly. Davide, one member of the family who runs this place, will totally take care of you.

You don't go there for the service (rough and direct to say the least - smiling isn't even an…read moreoption). You don't go there for the quiet atmosphere (quiet Italians? I don't think so!). You go there for the food, which is absolutely amazing. The owners are fishermen and as true fishermen, they only serve what they fish daily. And for bonus, they have a cook who knows how to properly prepare all that sea food. It's fresh, it melts in your mouth, it's to die for - and even if you don't like fish, you will love this fish! Tip: Don't be a tourist and ask for the menu. Just say you'll take the appetizers. You will see the waiter come regularly to your table with small plates of everything. Best way to have a taste of about 15 different seasonal sea dishes, warm and cold. And if you're still hungry after that, try some pasta - absolutely delicious. And if you're still hungry after, have some grilled shrimps or calamari. And if you're still hungry after that, I'm sure you can have some dessert, though we didn't make it that far... Bonus point: The house wine is bottled Zaccagnini.

As you walk in, you are in the ground floor wine bar-restaurant. The walls are covered with wine bottles and there are tables to sit at as well as a beautiful bar. But if you are more hungry than thirsty, then take a walk up the gorgeous blue granite stairs to the upstairs restaurant. Shortly after we sat down, the owner and chef, Nicola Russo, joined us at our table. He asked if we had any dietary restrictions and what our wine preferences were. There were no menus! He selects the freshest seasonal ingredients available and then puts together surprises! We were not disappointed! Everything was to die for scrumptious! The presentation of each plate was a work of art - for your eyes and for your stomach! Nicola is a professional sommelier and chef, so I can guarantee you won't be disappointed here!

I would like to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt because we went in on a rainy day at 1 pm with no reservation. But after waiting an hour for the first course to arrive, let alone any bread or wine, we surmised something was up. The food was below par for what the restaurant proposes to be. My first course of whipped baccala' was bland, rich, and poorly presented as a pile of white on a white plate with 2 small narrow bruschetti vertically jabbed in the paste. Missing was any contrast of flavor or color, and by halfway thru my stomach was starting to turn from the bland richness. The texture was curiously like plastic or putty, a bit off-putting, and I love baccala'. It took another long expanse of time before our primi piatti arrived, or rather my secondo piatto and my dining companions' primi piatti. Talk about off-timing. Two of us had the chitarrini with saffron sauce, a bland cream sauce with not much to offer. Pasta was over-sauced, it was swimming in the plate. One diner had the grilled pork chop, dry, tough, tasteless, he couldn't finish it and had trouble swallowing it. I tried to help eat it and gave up myself. The salads arrived with the second plates even though we had asked for them afterwards. They were the best part of the meal, simple with an excellent dressing of balsamic and lemon, and salted perfectly. By the time we left it was 3 pm, which caused us to miss our next grotto visit in another city. We should have figured out something was up, as the table of Scandinavian tourists behind us left before their food arrived....I heard them say they had to leave or they'd miss another appointment. Several groups of local business people arrived, obviously for their regular lunches. They came after us and left before we finished our meal, so they were served first. We are on a 2 month stay in Italy, speak decent Italian, and have eaten all over....this was one of the few times we were made to feel like American tourists who were ignored. Not acceptable.
