Hotel La Villa

In the old village of Salinari, a young enterprising chef runs this simple restaurant. His creative cuisine is prepared with the best regional produce of Romagna.

Following its reopening in 2020, this seafront restaurant overlooking the beach and small harbour now offers its guests a choice between its indoor dining room or the panoramic terrace in fine weather (if you prefer the latter, it’s best to book ahead due to its popularity). The cuisine here focuses entirely on simple, unfussy fish dishes, with raw options and cooked dishes which make much use of the local Cervia salt. Daily, market-fresh specials are announced at your table.

One of the town’s authentic favourites, this fish restaurant has a pleasant, light - coloured decor inspired by the sea. The eclectic cuisine includes tapas and raw fish dishes.

An unexpected gourmet restaurant in a typical private beach club on the Romagna coast, with a dining room that opens on to the beach with its long line of beach umbrellas. The dishes here are carefully prepared and occasionally creative, and all of good quality. We particularly recommend the monfettini (fresh egg pasta) mantecati with cuttlefish, clams, mantis shrimp and ink, which looks like a risotto and is absolutely delicious. The restaurant also boasts a good wine list with an excellent choice of champagnes.
