It may be a bit out of sight from the center of Ancona, rather inconspicuous and not exactly where you'd expect to find a great restaurant, but it's absolutely worth a visit. The food is fantastic. We had raw fish and regional cooked mussels for starters, which were excellent. Our first courses, both pasta and risotto, were also delicious. But the absolute highlight was the catch of the day, a perfectly prepared branzino that was simply wonderful. The lovely ambiance and the extremely attentive and friendly service rounded off this culinary experience. We'll be back!

We returned with pleasure and were still satisfied. read more We returned with pleasure and were still satisfied.

We apologized repeatedly, but were still warmly welcomed. The staff were extremely kind, the ingredients were excellent, the dishes were tasty, beautifully presented, and the service impeccable. It was a fitting end to a day of celebration. I paid the bill by card, but I'll be back to leave a tip in recognition of those who continued to work well past closing time, smiling as if they'd just opened.

The raw red prawn dish was my best pick and the local wine was great to pair. I want to visit again to taste all other dishes if I have another chance. Highly recommend!
