A conversation with Nicola rather than viewing a menu, helped us decide on seafood antipasti. Dish after dish of...creative and tasty seafood was brought to our table and we had a most delicious wine. Tried a seafood pasta also and enjoyed the range of breads a change from the bland usual one in this region. So good we came back the next evening also with off season others were closed)! Second night we chose meat antipasti and again had a wonderful selection of meats and cheese and vegetable dishes. Beautifully presented and excellent local ingredients. A lamb main was shared which was very tasty. Sadly there was only the bland bread on night 2, but that's the only downside. Reasonably priced for great dining and we were made so welcome. Thank you. We look forward to returning to Abruzzo and Ristorante Flamengo!

We had a lovely meal, a good bottle of wine,...and watched Flamenco dancing. The chef kept bobbing into the restaurant, to take orders and chat to some of the customers; he helped us with our choices, as our Italian is still very poor. We had a few small dishes, but there was plenty to fill you up. All the seafood was cooked perfectly no bones in sight). All the staff were very nice, all dressed well, soon as your plate was empty, it was cleared away, and they advised the kitchen that you were ready for your next dish. We knew the price before we booked; we were pleasantly surprised that the bottle of wine we had chosen was included with the price. The décor is a mix of Italian, and a touch of Spanish thrown in – but all good, and clean
