Dove mangiare a Sperlonga, i migliori indirizzi
È una raffinata trattoria che vanta una posizione eccezionale, proprio sul mare. La location è perfetta per una cena romantica, in serata viene arricchita da luci soffuse sotto un candido telo bianco e ombrelloni di paglia. Poiché il numero di tavoli è limitato e in estate la trattoria è molto gettonata, si consiglia di prenotare con un po’ di anticipo.
