Fantastic Pizza and wonderful seafood and fish. Very good and friendly service at a reasonable price. The owner by himself is the maitre and gives always good recommendations. Raw fish was fantastic and also the noodles "Spaghetti alle Vongole".

Perfect restaurant with Excellent quality of food and service. As indicated in the Michelin guide - "excellent cooking worth a detour". Effort to find it in the middle of the park. You will not regret. Thanks to the talent of the Chief Sign. Mario Marina food has a perfect taste, its own style an character. Try everything - fish, pasta, fresh seafood, as I say you will not be regret.

Eravamo in 10, 6 adulti e 4 bambini e siamo stati benissimo, appena entrati ci siamo sentiti come in casa, i proprietari sono davvero gentili, solari, accoglienti e molto professionali. Il cibo davvero strepitoso dall' antipasto al dolce ogni pietanza elaborata con materia di prima qualità, sapori originali e si notava che tutto era fatto da loro. La carta dei vini amplia e vini economici e buonissimi. É stato più che un pranzo un'esperienza... che vale la pena di prova. Davvero complimenti.
Il prezzo economico rispetto al servizio e la qualità delle portate. 35€ a persona per antipasto ricchissimo, primo, secondo, dolce, amaro, acqua e vini tutto compreso!!!

First of all it is gratifying to find a nice sized parking lot. The place is very inviting and it is quite a nice size. You may opt for a table inside or outside and the wait staff is quick to help and suggest. I had the traditional margherita and it was excellent. My pizzaiolo was Daniele and he is quite an artist with the dough. The pizza was thin and cooked to perfection with the obligatory burn marks that are the signature of a wood burning oven. They use the real mozzarella here and it is perfectly balanced with the thin layer if tomato sauce that covers the bottom of the pizza. They don’t overuse the olive oil and you taste just the hint necessary to create a harmonious balance of flavors in your mouth. I had a beer and it was quite cold, just as I like it. A great pizza at a very fair price.

This is an interesting place. During the day it is a fish market and in the evening it is a self-service restaurant where they serve their fish. We were two persons and ordered two plates of fried calamari as starters, as main we had two roasted large calamari and as side we asked for two plates of mussels. As drink we ordered only a bottle of water. The food was excellent, the fish was fresh and tasty. Even if they cannot serve you the waiters were very friendly and did their best to assist us. The only remark is that the plate of fired calamari, which was excellent, was not abundant as we would like it to be... Altogether we paid 60 Euro (30 Euro each one with a small discount) that is a bit above average in Southern Italy also taking into consideration that a converted fish marked should be cheaper than a normal restaurant and that we ordered only a bottle of water as drink. Anyway, if you would like to eat fresh and well cooked fish this is a place we must visit!

Three others and I stopped here to have something to eat while visiting Gaeta. We had no idea it was going to be this good. The outside area is gorgeous and they have nice Seating arrangements so some of us were in the shade while others were in the sunlight. The plating is beautiful. The portions are very generous. It was some of the best seafood that we had during our stay in Italy. The only bad thing about it is that it is kind of difficult to find since it doesn't really have an address.

I come here wherever I am in Formia. Be prepared to wait to be served during peek hours (7-9 pm). Though they make a variety of different pizzas, my go to pizza is the margherita. Pizza here is not sold by the slice; You simply go up to the counter and tell them where to cut and they then weigh your selection. Yes, pizza is sold by weight here. The prices are reasonable and there is a patio on the side of the pizzeria where you can enjoy your pizza.

We found this place through trip advisor...and booked via the app. On arrival we were welcomed and our table was laid out ready for us. The restaurant was very quiet much like the others we visited during our trip.
Our meal was outstanding! Roberto (server, I think that was his name?!) and Annalisa (chef) were lovely hosts. They didn't speak any English but still made us feel welcome and made every effort (incl. google translate) to help us choose from the menu. We had the octopus salad to start and mains of Tuna steak and beef Steak. All dishes were perfectly cooked and full of exciting flavours. We finished our meal with a Tiramisu which was the best I have ever had!!
Definitely this place should be rated more highly than it is. We visited place higher up the list which weren't half as good! GO HERE!
