IN GRADO SINCE 1972

A family-run restaurant in the heart of Città Giardino

It was the year 1972 when Franco and Franca decided to open the doors of their kitchen in Grado, giving life to a restaurant built on passion, simplicity, and family tradition. Over the years, amid sea aromas and time-honored recipes, the business has grown while remaining true to its values. 

Today, daughters Solange and Karin carry this story forward, continuing to offer honest cuisine with fish and meat specialties, carefully prepared with respect for high-quality ingredients, in a warm and informal setting.

THANKS TO YOU

The staff was extremely kind and welcoming, helping to make the experience truly enjoyable. We had a seafood dinner, and every dish turned out to be genuinely excellent, both for the quality of the ingredients and the care in preparation. Prices are absolutely in line with what is offered. Sincere compliments to the entire staff!

Excellent restaurant. The food is outstanding. We went on the recommendation of the Adriatica agency in Grado, as we were with a person who has celiac disease and wanted a safe restaurant — they are AIC certified. The staff is very courteous and knowledgeable, always attentive and quick. The dishes are prepared with great care and attention to detail. Excellent overall and highly recommended. Fair prices.

ANTONELLA T.- ITALY

I had already been to this restaurant last summer, and I returned this year — I can say they have once again confirmed themselves as an excellent restaurant. All the dining room staff are extremely kind; the ladies are always smiling and helpful, creating a truly welcoming atmosphere. The fish is excellent, and everything arrived promptly. In addition to the menu, there are different daily specials, clearly focused mainly on seafood.

Additionally, if you wish to spend a few days in Grado, you’ll find our 3-star hotel just a few meters from the restaurant.

At Hotel Meublé Villa Patrizia, every stay is made up of small, sincere gestures: a smile upon arrival, helpful advice, and that extra touch that truly makes you feel at home. The atmosphere is that of a seaside home, and breakfast is carefully prepared, with special attention given to guests with gluten-free needs.
