It is a genuine trattoria in the heart of the XIX century city. Not the right place if you’re looking for a fancy restaurant, but definitely the right one if you like fresh (and cheap) fish.
The lady is super kind and very attentive to people. Just tell them that it’s me that suggested you the trattoria and thy will cherish you like you were family.

Potrebbe avere l’apparenza di un ristorante turistico come tutti gli altri della via Bara, ma in verità ha una cucina molto buona ed è frequentato molto dai locali, me incluso. A servirvi ci sarà Rosita, una cara amica alla quale vi raccomando.
