You immediately feel like you’re in Italy the moment you walk through the door of this little restaurant. That’s where Silvana, the pastry chef, her son Danilo, and Pietro Ciminiello, the Italian chef, welcome you. After gaining experience at prestigious hotels and restaurants in Italy, France, and around the world, he is now a member of the prestigious Italian association “Ambassador of Taste.” That’s a testament to how incredible his traditional Apulian cuisine is—reimagined, original, and creative, with a focus on fish and seafood. Pietro searches the market for the best fish, squid, clams, and scallops… and draws shellfish straight from his own aquarium. With these ingredients, he creates extraordinary dishes. Everything is homemade, from the pasta to the bread. Spaghetti with octopus ragù, oven-baked John Dory fillet, risotto with three types of shellfish, octopus prepared in various ways… it’s all mouthwatering! The same goes for Silvana’s delicious desserts. All this is complemented by an impressive wine cellar featuring 50 Italian wines. One of the best fish and seafood restaurants in Alsace!
