Antica Cucina di Mucciante Paolo

Must have shared this a long time ago as it's one of our favourite restaurants in Abruzzo. Chef Paolo makes the best steaks, amazing tartar (available on request, to be ordered at the time of booking a table) and grilled lamb is to die for!! His wife Miriam is a star, her tagliatelle ai funghi (mushrooms pasta) is my guilty pleasure, and her secret weapon is a wine glass that she uses to open a bottle of prosecco, just ask her, it's a real show))) And Serena, the waitress, is such a sweet young lady, manages to serve the clients during peak hours all alone with a big smile on her face. We've been there many times: celebrating our wedding anniversary which was a last minute surprise party for my husband, so the staff didn't really have much time to prepare; having lavish traditional Easter lunch or just a simple weekday dinner for two or with large group of family and friends, and never ever left disappointed. The prices are more than reasonable, the food is delicious, the service is great, we highly recommend it!
