Da Giocondo

A simple, rustic trattoria, perched among the narrow streets of the upper part of the village. The owners themselves attend to both dining room and kitchen, ensuring that homestyle yet flavorful Abruzzese dishes reach the table, sometimes announced verbally to complement a menu featuring cheeses, cured meats, and grilled fare (yes, there are arrosticini!). The specialties not to be missed are certainly the traditional handmade pastas, each bearing its own distinctive name, and the indulgent desserts (the seasonal fruit crostatas are excellent). Also noteworthy is the small wine list showcasing the region above all, with cellars represented from each of its provinces. Reservations are always advisable.
