Built on stilts, the Clandestino is a unique restaurant with a simple yet trendy ambience, which overlooks a beautiful unspoilt beach with views of the sea from all the windows and a distinctly romantic feel at night. Here, Moreno Cedroni focuses on gourmet cuisine at lunchtime as well as in the evening. In addition to two tasting menus (Eros & Susci and Susci Memories), for lunch there’s a small à la carte.

This building with a minimalist, contemporary design is situated on the edge of the historic centre at the Sant'Erasmo belvedere, from where, in summer, panoramic views extend over Monte Conero and the sea (booking ahead is recommended). In the kitchen, owner-chef Davide Breccia conjures up creative dishes featuring original combinations and mainly inspired by the sea. There are two tasting menus, Iconico and Idee, for guests who like to be guided, plus an à la carte for those who prefer to choose their own courses.

Riva is the Hotel Vista’s fine-dining restaurant, situated just behind Numana’s beach with fine panoramic views. The restaurant serves top-quality ingredients from the Adriatic and surrounding countryside in creative dishes full of flavour which are showcased on tasting menus and an à la carte.

This small welcoming restaurant on the famous Scalinata della Costarella in Numana, with a tiny terrace for summer dining and just a few tables, serves delicious cuisine with an imaginative twist. Originally from Sicily, the highly talented owner-chef has spent much of his life in the Marche and has plenty of experience in leading restaurants. Given the limited capacity here, booking is essential, especially in summer.

Situated on the fourth floor of the Seeport hotel, this restaurant boasts a summer roof garden offering stunning sea views. The chef, a native of Ancona who trained with Gualtiero Marchesi, serves traditional local dishes prepared using ingredients from the region, as well as remaining open to the rest of the world (just like his town and its port). Lighter fare is available at the Seeport Bistrò.
