After driving quite a distance, we arrived at this non-descript location; but once inside, everything changed. The decor is bright and cheerful (though the light fixtures are a built garish....but in Italy everything is for show, not necessarily function). The staff are excellent -- friendly, helpful, attentive without being in the way (and it is so nice to get fresh flatware for each course...a true refinement). The seafood is prepared with great skill and imagination; you can't seem to go wrong with anything they prepare from the sea. Just be warned that it is a lot to eat: the antipasto was twelve small preparations (including a generous bowl of superb mussels); the grilled fish was a large plate of four items plus an additional assortment of fried items; we had passed on a pasta course, though the kitchen apparently does an excellent seafood pasta too. And we had no room for desert, so I can't comment; but the caffe was wonderful and my friends enjoyed the local liqueur (Genziana).
If you are visiting central Abruzzo, definitely make time to visit Carmine's!

Abruzzo is a famous region for its delicious culinary traditions...
Having tried several local restaurant I think this place is too much fancy and lost part of the traditional atmosphere of osteria and trattorias here in Abbruzzo...
It is not a place for locals but more for tourists.
The premise is quite new with bright colors and a rustic feeling.. they bring you a huge quantity of appetizers hot and cold. Usually only with starters you're already fine...cause it is a huge quantity, but ifr you want have a main course they offer several options of veals and steaks..
Price..around 40 per person included wine.
A little but pricey and too fancy for what they offer...

L Ristorante Regina Elena is located in the heart of the city just a few steps from the sea, the Director Gianni Olivieri is happy to welcome you in an environment at the same time simple and elegant, with a professional and attentive service but not intrusive, and a free and imaginative cuisine that builds on the combinations of quality fish and unusual ingredients with more than satisfactory results from the point of view of the presentation and taste, which preserves the quality of superfine seafaring tradition, giving birth to lighter dishes but can enhance the flavors and tastes of our land. The food is excellent, the flavors are enhanced and the menu is extensive and fun among the specialties shellfish and fish on the high seas, provided by small local fishing boats from which the restaurant uses in total respect of the quality of the raw material. The winery specializes in the selection of winemakers from Abruzzo but offers a selection of labels of the most renowned wineries in Italy and abroad.
We went into this restaurant because they offered express lunch. What a great meal. All was included in the price. We had the most delicious octopus starter. Pasta for main and tiramisu for dessert. Sparkling wine was served together with all courses.

Under new management/ownership, the interior sympathetically and tastefully restored. Enjoyed a fabulous evening meal with fantastic service at a more than reasonable price. Have been visiting Caramanico for several years and this is some of the best food we've had whilst there. Attentive, friendly staff, relaxing surroundings and staff can't do enough for you. Hot antipasto especially good as were the complimentary after dinner shots! Will definitely be dining here on all future trips. Highly recommended.

Abruzzo is a wonderful region in Italy! From the people, the various mountain ranges, the long coast in the Adriatic, the art, the culture to the amazing gastronomy!
Nested in the gorgeous hills in the Pescara province, you find this perfect Micheline starred ristorante & relais La Bandiera.
The Spadone family, a dynasty of chefs (father Marcello, son Mattia in the kitchen) & son Alessio in ristorante, offers you a magical meal filled with the perfect balance of fantasy in the display of every dish, the full but subtle flavors, the elegant rendering of traditional & local staples with the perfect pairing with the wonderful Spumante & wines from the Pescara & Chieti wine regions.
We had the "5-piatti-Degustazione" (5 course dinner)- although they also offer the 7 course & a la Carte. We had also the additional wine pairing: very worth while. There's a great relation between value & price considering the quality of food, wines & service.
They also offer home-made gluten-free pasta & bread, & vegetarian dishes.
We recommend to either go for lunch, or go for dinner if staying overnight in order to admire the beautiful scenery & surroundings.
The place has also a beautiful Terrace with a pool, a great location to enjoy the drinks & desserts.
A must place to visit in any trip to Abruzzo (about 2.5 hours east of Rome).

I have been visiting La Locanda Del Barone and the surrounding area with my family for approximately 15 years. The food is absolutely delicious, the hospitality unrivaled and the view spellbinding. Do not hesitate in visiting this establishment; it will be the highlight of your trip. All of the food is superb, especially the antipasto della casa; it is a true sensory experience and you will be amazed by the local flavours and beautiful presentation. This restaurant is extremely popular, especially with locals - another indication that it is the best in the area. Special thanks to Daniela and family who have made all of our visits to their restaurant so special and memorable.

The people were really friendly, the food was amazing. I did't get to try the meat because I was too full after the antipasti and the pasta. It was without doubt the best meal I have had in Abruzzo in the last year. The antipasti was different to anywhere else in this area and the pasta was right champion, made with seasonal ingredients. It's the best. Try it!!!

Del Baron is an up-market restrauant, and can also cater for large weddings. Set over looking the most beautiful countryside, the host greeted us warmly. The food was local and sensational, the service impeccable. To get there from town is a short car ride, or a short 20 minute stroll.

Fantastic pizzeria in the center of a quaint Italian village. The pizzas are fanstatic, and they also serve a potato based dish which is unique for the area. All topped off by genuine German beer! Make Reservations if you go on the weekend , it's packed!

We are from Australia and have tried pizza now in many parts of the world and of course, in Italy.
We are lucky enough to have family in Pescara who brought us to this amazing restaurant.
Always follow the locals!!! And I'm glad we did. The pizza was incredible.
There are many different types to choose from so it was really hard to make a decision. I tried a few different types (everyone had their own favourite).
Simply, buonissimo- Not too greasy- Fresh ingredients- Perfect crispy base.
The service was also great. The place itself was warm and cosy.
Enjoy. Mangia bene.
