Having been disappointed with the trattoria we had been to often in 2015, we tried the PiPe and were very pleased with the very friendly service and the food. Food of all sorts (pizza, seafood etc. was consistently good on our four or more visits there in two weeks for lunch and dinner.

You can find very good seafood, but not only. Try octopus carpaccio! It is delicious!

We had a pleasant conversation, and he even showed us the wonderful view this first-floor restaurant has. Food: I came in with normal expectations, and while the food isn't extraordinary, they do just enough to remind you of it. To optimize everything, they offer menus, so you can choose à la carte.

The warm, friendly staff welcomed me from the moment I arrived, and I immediately felt at home. The dishes are exceptional, reflecting traditional Abruzzo specialties with a few subtle twists that make them delicious and succulent. I enjoyed the pasta alla mugnaia, the sagne e ceci, and the spaghetti alla chitarra—all dishes I was unfamiliar with. Highly recommended, whether you're just passing through or staying for a few days, as the menu is so extensive you can indulge. Next time, I'll try the pizza!
