We came here every afternoon for a week for lunch - every time it was great plates and great service. The fixed menu always includes fresh fish for a good price. The people that manage the place are very nice, even sweet and patient. Don't miss it!

Very friendly welcome, good service and excellent location on edge of beach. Menu offers plenty of variety; high standard of food preparation and presentation. A perfect lunch at a reasonable price. The cold assortment of chef's antipasto was particularly delicious. Thank you!

ho preso il menù fisso da 45€, permette di assaggiare tante cose diverse e particolari, tutte buonissime, con quello si esce a stomaco super pieno. Personale gentile e simpatico, soprattutto il proprietario molto piacevole. ristorante molto carino e ben curato, io ho mangiato su un tavolo sulla spiaggia, con i piedi sulla sabbia, idea molto carina.Consiglio!!

Il cibo è buonissimo, ci ha fatto piacere ricevere a sorpresa, in attesa del primo piatto, un antipastino di benvenuto. Abbiamo ordinato la Calamarata (minimo per 2 persone) che consiglio vivamente. Nel piatto c'erano sia i Calamari "pasta" che i Calamari "pesce", ottima l'idea di usare la ricetta napoletana con scaglie di parmigiano. Si sfata finalmente il mito che il parmigiano non è buono col pesce. Il tocco salato è davvero ottimo. E se capita che qualcuno sia intollerante, lo portano a parte affinché nella coppia, il partner possa gustarlo. Poi insalatona di pesce, anch'essa ottima. Lo consiglio. Prezzi nella norma Con acqua, senza dolce e caffè (abbiamo optato per la vicina pasticceria Nanà) 50€

Ci siamo trovati lì per caso. Stavamo seguendo le indicazioni per un ristorante e Abbia mo trovato "Sole & Mare"...Ma quando si dice:"nulla è per caso". Appena varcata la soglia del locale ci siamo trovati subito a nostro agio. Il locale è molto curato, luminoso e si trova sulla spiaggia. Bellissima location (anche ad ottobre quando il mare è più agitato). In attesa dei piatti ordinati ci hanno portato delle zucchine marinate e delle bruschette. Molto Buone. Poi ci hanno serviti i primi. Abbiamo scelto primi a base di pesce. Sono arrivati e con se hanno portato l'odore del mare. Pesce di ottima qualità. Anche il dolce era top. Delicato e gustoso. Servizio impeccabile e preciso. A tutto questo si è aggiunto il lato familiare del luogo. Persone davvero speciali. Grazie per questo!
