What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Barcaccia is praised for its delicious pizza and fresh seafood, with many hailing the pizza as the best in Italy. Diners also appreciate the friendly service and pleasant atmosphere. However, some reviews mention slow service due to understaffing and that the restaurant does not serve pasta.
"My mom and I had a fantastic experience here. The owner of the restaurant helped us find the place we were staying that night which was so kind. Then we came back later for dinner, and it was so delicious. We shared bruschetta, our waiter’s recommended pizza, and the tiramisu, and it was all AMAZING. Would definitely recommend!"

"The fried squid was the best I've had so far in my Italy trip - fresh, lightly salted and fried to perfection. The seafood pizza was average.
Do note they do NOT serve pasta so some of the older reviews are inaccurate.
Service a bit slow due to only 1 server for the whole restaurant."
Daniel Lee
"Walk past this restaurant every day and figured we would stop in for dinner. Just average food, great service, very loud inside.
I ordered a Margherita Pizza, which was average. The crust was thin and crispy on the edges, very wet in the middle. The tomato sauce was fresh, very thin and a bit watery for pizza and the cheese was fresh. The cheese tasted better as the pizza cooled off a bit.
My partner ordered a salad with greens, tomato and feta cheese, he said the salad was fine.
Overall, the food is just average, surprising for Italy, since Italians know how to cook."
