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.
WebsiteThis 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.

Casa Rapisarda in Numana offers contemporary Italian seafood cuisine. Reviews highlight exceptional ingredient freshness, skilled cooking techniques, and creative menus, set within a warm and romantic atmosphere. Service is generally professional and welcoming, though some guests report issues with pacing, seating arrangements, and occasional staff rudeness. Negative feedback cites small portion sizes, inconsistent flavors, and concerns regarding value for money. While many praise the culinary excellence, others find the experience compromised by service inconsistencies and high costs relative to portion size.
Suitable for diners prioritizing ingredient quality and creativity over consistent service.
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.

Lofficina in Sirolo offers creative contemporary cuisine set against a stunning pine forest backdrop. Reviews highlight original ingredient combinations, fresh produce, and an elegant, peaceful atmosphere. While most praise the friendly service and high culinary standards, some guests note issues with value for money and slow meal pacing, citing long waits between courses. Occasional criticism targets specific dishes and overly scripted service interactions. Despite these mixed points, the restaurant remains popular for its distinctive setting and innovative menu, appealing to diners seeking a refined, visually striking dining experience.
Ideal for diners prioritizing scenic views and innovative cuisine who can tolerate higher prices and occasional service delays.
