The chef/owner and waiter came out to talk to us, they showed the most interest in us compared to everywhere else we ate, and even offered us a guide book to peruse while we waited for our food. The portions were massive and the prices were very reasonable. On top of all that they gave us complimentary bruschetta and cake! We were rolling out of there, we were so full. I had the tortellini alla Panna, it was very good! My husband had some pasta with lobster, he also found it to be delicious! Also, as mentioned in other reviews, there were many cats wandering the restaurant, so maybe not a good place to go if you are allergic. I personally found it to be very charming! Cat cafes are an attraction where we are from.

We walked in around 14:00 not sure if the place was open or they still had food and waddled out at 16:00 overrun by the quality of the food. There aren't any menus, you just eat what the owner has to offer, he looks at you and decides. We had a couple of seafood dishes and finished up with some lovely dessert and meloncello. Go here!

The family atmosphere, cuisine, and service, the friendly staff, the retro decor, and the ever-present but never intrusive cats make the experience more like dining at a friend 's house than simply eating in a restaurant. La Forastera is my one-of-a-kind place of the heart, a business to be protected and supported in every way.

Authentic and relaxed local restaurant. Everything was really delicious and the view was stunning. We had limoncello and Aperol spritz which were very good. read more Authentic and relaxed local restaurant. Everything was really delicious and the view was stunning.
