During a stop halfway through our journey, we returned to La Scaleta for lunch. Excellent food, quick and very friendly service...it was well worth the stop. Highly recommended!
We received a very warm welcome and the service was quick, but unfortunately my Ortolano pizza 🍕 wasn't good and was poorly prepared (the zucchini tagliatelle were just chunks and the roasted vegetables were missing). The other diners' dishes were good. We enjoyed the terrace, which is very pleasant.
A very welcoming place; I've been a customer for several years and have always been a regular. However, in the last few months, we've noticed a new menu with several inaccuracies (some prices not displayed? Dishes subject to conditions that aren't available on certain days, which is annoying if it's not specified on the menu?). There are also new, higher prices for the same or even lower quality.
It's unfortunate because the place and the staff are very friendly, but word is starting to get around that you're no longer as affordable or high-quality as your neighboring competitors. Hoping to return under better circumstances!
While on holiday in the area, we ate there twice; the welcome was fantastic, the cocktails were excellent, and the pizzas were great. If we have the chance to return to the area, we'll definitely stop by La Scaleta again.
