"excellent cuisine, relaxing environment, magnificent panorama, exceptional service, honest wine card! the added value is in my opinion the attitude all Abruzzo to interact with the customer in a snappy and intelligent way. we make a little unbalanced order and we are promptly correct, with appreciable spontaneity, in line with the noticeable verve in the answers to reviews. After the well-deserved compliments we try to launch a provocation in the form of advice. olive oil is very good and we would like to taste it with bread, waiting for the dishes ordered. We'll come back with pleasure anyway!"

"Wow! I found this restaurant watching a video on youtube. the history of this restaurant is unique and was told by the owner, very kind and helpful person. me and my girlfriend ate a recommended appetizer: some delicious stuffed mussels. then we took a typical Abruzzo brodetto. arrived a really plentiful dish (I put a photo,) full of fresh fish and we seemed to taste a piece of history of the Abruzzo sea. the spaces of the room, with background music to accompany, are well maintained and overlooking the sea. we had a great time and definitely recommend it. We'll be back!"

"an evening at sea and a perfect restaurant! The structure and the decor are a little years but it doesn't matter, because as soon as you sit and open the menu looking at the view that you have out you forget anything. Prices perfectly suited to the place and food. I ate an octopus with burrata that I hardly forget, spaghetti with clams and another first with chickpeas and seafood: SPECTACULAR!Really a visit"

"Cute restaurant with terrace on the sea, but unfortunately very expensive and the waits really too long!! it took 2 hours to have 1 dish of pasta sauce after the cook had also wrong to make the dish...a dish of fish and a dish of meat have the same price which I find it incorrect. If you want to pay a lot, wait 2 hours for 1 dish of pasta, well this restaurant does to your case friendly local representation google guides."

"There are a number of trabocchi along the Trabocchi Coast, but this one is special! While it was fairly hard to find, look out for the Marina di Vallevo. You should persist, because this is an experience that you will not want to miss. Be sure, though, to book in advance. This trabocco is one of the pillars of the long-established Veri family. It is now run by Rinaldo, who presents seafood cuisine made strictly from today’s catch. We were also shown how the trabocco is constructed and how the nets are thrown out over the front into the sea and tied securely to a pole inside the hut through a whole drilled into it. We were told that during the winter, when the Abruzzo farmers were unable to work their land and as they did not know how to catch fish, they went down to the sea and built these structures. This gave them a way of supplementing their income. During our meal, there was a thunderstorm and the waves were gradually building up causing the structure to sway, which all added to the atmosphere. There we were out on a wooden structure over the ocean with lightning flashing in the sky. They pulled the plastic covers down and these were immediately lashed with rain. You could see and hear the waves crashing against the rocks through the floorboards! Apparently, in 2004, a whale came ashore at this very spot and they have photos of it. The delicious meal consisted of a set menu of six courses, which just kept coming. Our cold starter comprised a mixture of sardines on a slice of brown bread with tomatoes, cuttlefish served with red peppers, octopus in a salad of cucumber, corn and grated carrot and mackerel with some black olives. Our hot starter was a mussel soup served with tomatoes. We then had a plate of stuffed mussels and a polenta pizza topped with shrimps and tomatoes. This was followed by a spaghetti with clams and red peppers and then more mussels with some large king prawns and clams. Our final fish course consisted of frito misto of small sting rays, octopus, shrimp, red mullet and monk fish. Finally, we had some oranges and strawberries and then some waffles and an apricot jam-filled crostini. Our wine was a 2017 Casal Bordino, which was a Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo, from Terre Sabelli. The wine is dedicated to Sabelli, the ancient population who lived in the area and began the cultivation of grapes. A great experience and one that you definitely should not miss!"
