The spot is very casual and is located directly on the beach; the space is outside/inside so you feel as if you are dining al fresco but you are covered from the sun and wind. Great spot and well deserving of a visit!

Local cuisine at its best!!! This was one of our favorite restaurants while touring Italy, kudos…read moreto the owners/chef! We were welcomed by the owner and started off enjoying a sparkling white wine while enjoying bruschetta (local vibrant tomatoes). We spoke English and they spoke Italian and they accommodated every request with a smile. Tip: The menu is in Italian/German and English. We moved on to our next course of fresh mussels in an amazing broth. We finished our lunch with fresh pasta - mussels, clams and baby snails. Delicious! We decided that it was so tasty we would come back for dinner and so happy we did! The local wines were superb as well as the house made limoncello. For dinner we once again enjoyed the beautiful homemade pasta and this time with olive oil and peppers. The owner came our with a tray of the fresh pasta prior to it being cooked. Yumm! For our entree we shared the Swordfish with olives and cherry tomatoes. My husband thought it was one of the best fishes he has ever had, mind you he is a "foodie as I". Don't miss out eating here!!! Delicious!!!

It rotates every month and they make the food fresh for the whole restaurant and it is served family style to your private table. In other words, each table in the restaurant is eating the same thing. You can watch them make the pasta as the first course is being served. It really feels like you are in someone's home. The night we came, the opener was a meat plate. Plenty of salty Italian meats to make it a meal in and of itself. You can ask for as much as you want but save yourself for all the courses. Next came skewers of lamb sausage. They were so different and had a tang to them that was amazing. The third course was backed artichokes, nothing too special. Next was a beef broth that was excellent with bread. There was a soupy consistency to this. The pasta was next. Gnocchi was out first pasta. I could see them making it so I knew what was coming and the timing was amazing. This was followed by ravioli which was so fresh again, you could taste it. Our final course was a wild boar that was so soft and juicy. It really got me hooked on this meat. The desserts were average but who cares, we were so stuffed by then anyways on the good stuff. Plan to spend over 2 hours here as this is a meal to experience for sure!!

Sister ordered spaghetti but did not know it came with squid ink, she didn't like it. My parents said it was good, though. (I didn't try it) I ordered risotto, which was really yummy! It came with a piece of shrimp and some sort of sauce. It was quite strong and a bit too overpowering for me, but overall, it was great! Mom ordered the sea bass- it was so so good! I wish I would have ordered it myself. It was so light and fluffy and it came with a spectacular-tasting sauce! Dad ordered the daily catch- which was another type of sea bass. It was even lighter than my mother's fish! It felt like air! It literally melted in my mouth. Delish! Service was also on point! Overall, I had a great lunch and would return again.
