The paccheri pasta with tomato (can't R.E.M. What else was in the sauce as I am reviewing this 4 days after I've eaten here) was great, but the fishermans pasta with beans and seafood was not so good as the beans made the sauce murky. The mussels in there were very good though.
Overall would recommend. This is reasonably priced.

Ristorante dal Pescatore

Reviewed By YorkRaven - York, United Kingdom

Had the choice of restaurant rather thrust on us by the hotel failing to admit to their restaurant being shut. "Just 200m down the road" was, just 400m but we arrived as the restaurant opened. Mixed seafood starter was generally good, steak with rocket and Parmesan was badly let down by poor meat.
A reasonable wine list.
Service is patchy, partly through an emphasis on the unnecessary - filleting fish at the table led to it being served cold, bog standard wine with no sediment was decanted.
Nice location on the seafront.

Lovely location just off one of the many narrow streets of Vietra. Friendly staff, good service and beautiful, authentic food. Lots of choice of pasta, seafood, salads and antipasti. Lovely towards our 8 year old and adapted the menu to ensure he had a pasta dish he enjoyed. House wine was delicious. Great value, friendly staff and lovely food. Recommend for off the beaten track, good food , friendly atmosphere and lovely limoncello to finish.

Il Cavaliere dei Conti

Reviewed By Nigel W - West Malling, United Kingdom

Other reviews accurately describe this lovely restaurant which is the front of house of a working farm set on incredibly steep and heavily terraced hillside overlooking the sea.
We were staying at nearby Hotel Raito and were offered a shuttle service (recommended and arranged by reception) to and fro which we gladly accepted - not sure if this applies elsewhere - but it was a white knuckle ride down to the restaurant on incredibly narrow and steep lanes all driven at pace.
But the end result was excellent. Don't go expecting haute cuisine. What you will get is authentic Italian rural cooking served in a farmyard setting where animals - noise and smell - actually adds to the charm.
The restaurant was packed out with local Italians but as the token Brits we were made no less welcome and still managed a form of conversation and good laughs.
On the night we were there two musicians were present and it was great to see the Italians joining in wholeheartedly with (presumably) well known folk songs. We were encouraged to join in through clapping to the beat.
You need to go hungry as food was plentiful. We had excellent mixed starters followed by pasta and then main courses of mainly pork and sausage dishes. Locally produced wine was served by the jug and hit the spot as did delicious home cooked bread.
We were too full for desert which was either fruit or cake - tiramisu by the look of it.
Our bill for 3 came to just under €100 - fantastic value for over 3 hours entertainment and excellent food and wine. Most importantly this was not one of those manufactured tourist evenings but was simply a great evening spent with local families hell bent on enjoying themselves - and keen to share their enjoyment with us.
Not to be missed if staying in the area and a massive improvement on the endless pizzerias and bars in the main town.
