Al Portìo - Bar gelateria

The pasta and the shellfish here are out of this world. Lovely, simple, welcoming atmosphere. Very friendly and charming staff. I&rsquo;d come here everyday for lunch if I had more time in this lovely corner of the world.

A fantastic evening in a hidden gem.An adequate variety of typical pugliese dishes with a fine touch of a modern twist. Seafood, pasta and not to forget burrata and a short and well selected list of wines.All is profoundly balanced in taste and beautifully presented. No alibi salad or raw rosemary branches, only the dish and well thought through accompanying edible garnish. Our favorite: grilled pulpo bedded on a cream of lemony potatoes, fried carrots smoked burrata and finished with a herbal cream aside. Perfectly combined ingredients, technically very well performed.We also tried the incredibly juicy gilthead seebream with herbs, slowly baked in a parchment coat and grilled vegetables with fresh mint which is an amazing twist to freshen up a well known side dish.Dolci: hand made pastries and desserts + the artisanal gelato the team makes. My favourite - the heavenly soft short pastry pie with a lemon pastry cream. These local slow food places should run this world.

Beautiful location with great sea views. Great seafood menu and excellent service with a buzzy atmosphere. We were a family group, but there was also a large birthday party plus it would be a great evening location for a date night.
