Popular Restaurants | Other Restaurants Tips | All Tips (7) Given the fact that the stadium is far from everything else I certainly hope that there are still those food-wagons standing outside the stadium-area. If not, people risk to starve to death given the walk back to the center. Leave a Comment

Ancona's main foods are from the sea. A special dish they have is called Stoccafisso All'Anconitana. It is cod cooked with vegetables and herbs. Fish dominates everything. But---
Turchetto, a stong drink served in a glass, consists of a strong dose of bitter Italian coffee lungo, to which has been added black rum and lemon juice. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

The Opera Nova della Marca can be called a "luxurious" refugee for romantic people and gourmet. It is nested between the small town of Varano and the Stadium, therefore is equally reachable in few minutes both from Portonovo and Ancona South Motorway exit.
Once you enter this place the magic atmosphere capture you: this is what Conero area can offers at his best. The setting is elegant but traditional, and bears that sense of taste for which Italy (and Italians) is famous. In the summer, a fresh veranda immersed in the green view make you relaxed, while in the winter, the fireplace and the very low music in background give that touch or unforgetable romance.
Eating at the Opera Nova is a really gourmet experience: the small bothanic garden where they grow the herbs used for cooking does its job every time of the year, together with the skills of Stefano, the chef. The "risotto con spaccasassi" is something unmissable, but you can't have it every day: each dish has its own season, and the chef likes to change his specialty every couple of weeks.
All the dishes are not only good for the mouth, but also for the eyes, having each of them a great presentation. At the end, last but not least, the liqueur trolley is the top of the experience: fourteen different kinds of liqueurs, all made by Mauro, the maitre, with the herbs of the garden and some other taken at the market.
Believe me, when you will exit that restaurant (which is not expensive for the quality of the meal), you will really feel in heaven.
ps: of course, very happy to recommend you to the restaurant when you go there. Just write me!

i can remember being asked for lunch one day whilst swiimimg on the mian pier
there was a lift that took one to the beach or sea front
you could see the strange tented restaurant clearly on the right side of the beach
the food was marvelous fresh and scrumptous however i found the drinking of wine in the sun extremly potent even though i only had two glasses it was in mid august ... its better to drink at night
somehow it felt so natural to eat fish by the sea
right on the sea shore in a plesant restuarant
anything they cooked Theme: SeafoodPrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: on the main beach frontPhone: not knownDirections: santa pier and walk to ones rightWebsite: not known
