I had the pleasure of dining at Paglia Restaurant this evening with my parents, and it was a delightful experience. Given its popularity, I made sure to book a table in advance, and I’m glad I did, as the place filled up quickly after 8:30 PM with families, birthday parties, and couples.
From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed with big smiles. The staff was professional, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was lively.
Paglia offers both a set dinner menu and an à la carte option. I opted for the sautéed mussels and clams, followed by tuna and prawns grilled to perfection. My parents chose the set fish dinner, and we were all impressed by the quality of the dishes. The chef’s attention to detail and skill in preparing seafood truly shone through in each bite.
However, the service was unfortunately a major downside. The waiting time for the food was long enough that any initial hunger faded away. It’s really a pity, as this aspect dampened an otherwise fantastic meal

Siamo stati al ristorante La Paglia e, onestamente, è stata una delle peggiori esperienze gastronomiche mai vissute. Appena seduti, abbiamo atteso,nonostante alcuni solleciti fatti a chi stava lavorando in sala,quasi mezz’ora solo per ricevere una bottiglia d’acqua e il menù. Inaccettabile. Quando finalmente si è presentato un cameriere, è sembrato scocciato, svogliato e per nulla rispettoso. Parlava a stento, come se ci stesse facendo un favore. Una volta arrivati gli antipasti (dopo ulteriore attesa), non c’erano nemmeno le posate al tavolo, e abbiamo dovuto aspettare anche per quelle. Il cibo? Immangiabile. Piatto dopo piatto, una delusione dietro l’altra. E il peggio: nel mio piatto ho trovato un pezzo di formaggio che sembrava già morso. Non so nemmeno come commentare una cosa del genere. E come se non bastasse, andando in bagno abbiamo notato sotto un banco in cucina una bacinella piena di spaghetti e vongole con dentro una pinza da cucina. Sembrava una sorta di contenitore per scarti da riutilizzare, o almeno così è parso. Anche se non fosse questo il caso, tenere del cibo in quelle condizioni, in quel posto, è qualcosa di impensabile e profondamente antigienico. Abbiamo provato a segnalare tutto alla proprietaria, che ci ha risposto con tono sarcastico, quasi prendendoci in giro. Totale mancanza di professionalità e rispetto verso il cliente. Sembrava davvero di essere finiti in una puntata di Cucine da incubo. E purtroppo non eravamo nemmeno l’unico tavolo a lamentarsi. ESPERIENZA...
