We waited 10 minutes and finally had to ask for glasses. Throughout the entire night we felt ignored while the waiter would walk and talk with every other table. In fact, as I am writing this review our waiter is still at another table talking and they have been done with their meal for a while now. Edit: Since there was a response I should clarify: we were not looking to be entertained by the waiter. We were looking to get glasses with our water, looking to be checked on regularly (asking if everything is ok, need more water, etc), looking to be asked if we need any coffee, dessert, the check, etc when the table was cleared. There was one other waiter there who looked like she was picking up all the slack because of his excessive conversations with other tables. By the end of our meal she picked up on our frustration and was right there to help us. This was after my initial review. For her, I will add back two stars.

Really nice restaurant in the old town of Sperlonga. The table setup was lovely and there is a wireless lamp on each table that make the atmosphere really magic... read more Really nice restaurant in the old town of Sperlonga. The table setup was lovely and there is a wireless lamp on each table that make the atmosphere really magical during and after the sunset. The food was lovely too, would definitely recommend the tonnarelli with calamari, mazzancolle e pachino. My partner got the octopus, which was lovely too, but he said he would have appreciated to have a bit of sauce of some kind with it as well. The only reason why I didn’t give 5 stars os that the tables outside were quite cramped and even if we were on a corner of the terrace if felt almost like we were dining together with the couple next to us and could hear every single thing they said. But I would still 100% recommend this restaurant for a special night.
