A family restaurant which our B&B host highly recommended, made me feel like I was warmly welcomed by a Roma family. The Conchiglie is special and delicious,especially the source.

The food was really really nice, I ordered spaghetti al mare, cost 15 euros, the prices are according to the quality of the food. The waiter was kind and professional. Kitchen closes at 11:30 I recommend this place

Food is very tasty and have been there few times in the last years and even the waiters are same. Very friendly.

Delicious food and good service but let down with the waiter telling us we had to pay more as we didn’t have cash on us.
