“ Excellent seafood in heart of Civadale. Bit more expensive but you pay for the quality. Outstanding local wine list. ”
“ We've been lucky to have found a table at this restaurant on a Sunday. I admit that the price range was not exactly what we have calculated for the day, but at least we had the chance to make an exception. We have tried three different first courses, they were all very delicious. The black ball is a baccala mantecata, and it was amazing too! The one on the plate is the single portion, and it might look small, but it is actually a good size for one. The dish portions were quite good as well. ”
“ Extraordinary meal. We tried the gigantic 7 course meal and were amazed at the quality of each of the dishes. Avoid the great bread if you want to make it to the end ”
“ Elegant atmosphere and lovely combination of taste. Seafood is the specialty here ”
“ No pictures to share, they would not make justice to the food there. We had an extremely pleasant dinner, we appreciated the very attentive, and prepared, service and then of course the food. Would not know what to recommend as everything we tried was good, and the food served to other guest looked the same. Spaghetti with sea urchin, or caserecce with calamari went down well, as well as the monkfish involtini, or the seabream. Excellent wine selection to pair the food. ”
