I should have stopped there, but the roast pork with potatoes are on the way. The pork and potatoes arrived...and I'm speechless. It's delicious. I didnt think I was going to have room, but it was way to good. Everything was tasty down to the last bite. Reservations aren't necessary, but helpful. This seems like a favourite not for tourists, but for the locals as well. The owner is amazing. It is stressed to let your waiter know of any food allergies. I am allergic to all seafood., but Gianluca was attentive in going over the menu of things I could have. Never had to use my EpiPen. Thank you. Leaving out to pay for meal, you can see into the kitchen. The staff was laughing..that's the reason the food was so good. Happy cooks create good meals. Small note, but not a deal breaker. The air conditioning was on, but it was still warm. I always have a small hand fan handy. I still enjoyed my meal.

Our dinner that evening was at La Scogliera and was wonderful! We ordered Seafood Salad, Fish Ravioli, Pesto Ravioli and a lot of wine. The flavors in each dish were wonderful... even excellent. The menu was large, choosing was difficult but our choices made us very happy. The staff was friendly and accommodating seating us without a reservation. The restaurant seats indoor or out, it was drizzling so we opted to dine 'in'.

I thought you couldn't find bad food in Italy. After going to this place on a recent trip, sadly, I…read morenow know that is not true. We got off a ferry from another of the five cities and saw this pleasant looking place with friendly staff advertising air conditioning as we walked by in the sweltering heat, and we decided to give it a shot. My wife wanted seafood, so ordered the grilled shrimp - order was 5, she got through 2. My daughter's a seafood lover so she tried one and couldn't even swallow the bite. One of my other children ordered the lasagna, which was Ok but clearly reheated and not evenly; it also had a really thick, unappealing layer of bechamel sauce, but it was by far the best thing we ordered. My other daughter and I both wanted something simple that we figured they couldn't mess up - spaghetti with meat sauce. Each of us could only stomach a couple bites. It was soggy, overcooked boxed pasta with sauce that was no better than Prego from a bottle. I honestly would have greatly preferred unlimited salad and breadsticks from Olive Garden. My entire family decided to just scrap the whole meal and get something else later. 90 euros wasted (oh yeah, it was not cheap either). (What we found later was a delicious cone of fried seafood and vegetables and a lemon-mango granita; I'll write up those in other reviews) One plus - the bathroom was clean and had a toilet seat. I will not return (unless I need to use a bathroom).

Reservation ONLY accepted online as they refused our first attempt in person. Online only ends in an email request that was followed by a demand for a CC number within two hours... or else.

Too many amazing restaurants in the area to waste time on a place that treats people like this.

It's pretty small inside with a small outside seating which was reserved when we go there otherwise I would have requested to be seated outside. The owner, Stefano, was very friendly and kept sending us gratis dishes: panzanella, desserts, limoncello shots. We were so full at the end of the meal that we could hardly finish the assortment of cakes we were given. The prawns were delicious and I've never had better pasta carbonara than I did here. We had so many dishes that I can't even remember half of them. Amazing time!
