Hotel Playa Suite

With just a road separating it from the beach (in summer, the large windows open completely, so that the dining room has the feel of an outdoor terrace), this simple restaurant is similar to the many others dotted along the seafront in Marotta. However, it’s the food that is the main attraction – the colourful, generous cuisine of the Adriatic, with fish served in classic recipes occasionally finished with an imaginative and personal twist. Fish also take pride of place on the delicious gourmet pizzas served here.

A restaurant not to be missed if you are in the area. The moment you walk through the door, the rooms overflowing with decorations will surprise you, but then it will be time to sample the cuisine. The chef puts his own personal stamp on some of the classics of local and national seafood tradition. One dish after another, you won’t ever want to stop eating!

A trattoria in the old town, with rooms filled with memories and nostalgia, offering an atmosphere that makes you feel at home, just like the traditional cuisine. The fresh-egg pasta rolled out with a rolling pin (also on sale in their nearby shop) is the main attraction here, with main courses featuring various types of meat, and fish dishes on Fridays.

In a bright, elegant and modern dining room inside the Elisabeth Due hotel, Galeone is one of the city's finest gastronomic destinations. The menu focuses on fish, with dishes that draw on local traditions, such as “brodetto alla fanese” fish soup (available by advance order), alongside more creative offerings.
