The menu is small but offers a variety of items that are local/Napoletano style including pasta, pizza, and seafood. Wine and beer selection. Service was warm, friendly, and quick. The food was delicious... we both had seafood pasta dishes and a recommended red wine. Recommend a reservation. We luckily ate at 7pm and they were able to accommodate us. Thank goodness for not yet being acclimated to the late Italian eating, haha. Oh and for my other non-Italian speakers (I'm learning), they do have an English menu. A solid 4.5

This is obviously a local favorite! The food was fresh and the area was clean…read more I ordered seafood and my friend ordered non seafood. Both of us were happy with our meals and we only spent under €40. We sat outside because the air conditioning inside really was not working very well, and it seemed outside was the cooler option. Wait staff was efficient but not friendly. Though I don't mind that after a long day of traveling. All in all a good choice and within walking distance of one of the best in on the coast, south of Rome.

They have a menu in English that made ordering easy. We had an appetizer of local favorites that was tasty. The pork with mozzarella and fried vegetables was delicious.

This restaurant is located in a very nice spot along the water in old town Gaeta. You will probably…read moresmell it before you can see it. There are a couple tables directly outside the restaurant, a couple tables around the corner from the restaurant outside, and a couple tables inside around the corner after that. The inside seating is not great and does not have a lot of airflow but the outdoor seating is great. The menu itself is a lot of fried food as the name would suggest. The fried food isn't very greasy though, it's light and a very nice appetizer. I had calamari and the zucchini flower. The calamari was pricey even for the area at 10€ and did not come with a lot. The zucchini flower was good and fun to try because we haven't had it before. They also had a small chalkboard with a daily special which we tried, linguini with clams and we also got fried pizza. The fried pizza was just ricotta and salami, no tomato. The outside was perfectly crispy but I think it needed something else inside like tomato. The linguini was great, there were a lot of clams and the pasta and olive oil were delicious. I probably wouldn't come here again for a meal, only appetizers. Better for lunch than for dinner.

The fried calamari comes in a paper role and is enough for one person or if you are getting other things you could share it. The staff is very friendly and super attentive. It's a casual place to stop and have a nice lunch by the sea. There's a nice little patio in the courtyard next to the restaurant where you can sit, drink your beer and eat your fried pizza, octopus salad or whatever else you find tempting. It's all good.

Valario welcomed us as family of 18 for a feast that was the highlight of our trip to Southern Italy. They put together a special night of 10 delicious antipasto both cold and hot. Fantastic eggplant Parmesan, arancini, fried calamari, a seafood plate, zucchini and more. The main course was a choice of a seafood risotto or rigatoni bolognese and of course a pizza margarita. Plenty of great house wines, limoncello and tiramisu. The food, the friendships and family made the night and the trip special. This restaurant is much more than what we Americans think is a pizzeria. It is a hidden gem of a restaurant that also serves pizza. I will return

4.5 stars - You could easily pass Zi' Anna driving through Formia, especially heading northbound…read more Its waterside location; literally on the dock, adjacent to seafood businesses and parking, a short walk from the passenger ferry port, requires northbound drivers to head down to the rotary, turn around and access from the southbound road. There is ample covered outdoor seating, a large indoor dining room, and like many long-standing restaurants in this area, Zi' Anna employs professional wait staff, who see their role as your guide to the experience, and take that role seriously. That said, you won't be forgotten wherever you sit, and your server is the best resource for the perfect wine to pair with any of the delicious offerings on their relatively concise menu. You are in a fishing port, and you are there for expertly-prepared seafood. Start with the antipasto di mare, alici marinate or insalata di polpo. The gamberetti e rucola are also sublime. A pasta dish is a must here, and you can't go wrong with most - all of them prepared to a creamy level of refinement that in my opinion is taken for granted by locals. Staples: linguine agli scampi, risotto alla pescatora, schiaffoni alla Cardinale or with zucchini and gamberi. Portions are traditionally moderate, so you can have/share an antipasto, pasta dish and a second course. The fritto misto di mare is a classic, grigliata mista di pesce prepared to perfection, grilled baby calamari are perfectly tender. We live in NYC so perhaps our pricing expectations are skewed, but $10-12 for a plate of pasta this good is a bargain by us. Generally we are 5-7 people at dinner for a cost of under 200 euros. €30 pp average, including wine, for a meal at this level is hard to beat. We've been out to many meals in Formia and Zi' Anna is a go-to.
