Morgan's Restaurant — Restaurant in Passignano sul Trasimeno

A seafood restaurant called "Morgan's" can't be good, can it? It definitely can be very good. Don't get confused by the name or the colorful lighting inside. Morgan's is doing classical Italian seafood in an excellent way with very reasonable prices. It's family run andif you give them some time, that's a serious business not a Burger King drive in. We had plate of raw (crudo) seafood, excellent, some stuff you never had seen before plusmshrimps, oysters, urchin, mussels, razor clams etc. Fantastic spaghetti control as well or the seafood platter for 2 (30 EUR). Main dish, grilled seafood 12 EUR !!!, top much tomfinish after the starter and grilled octopus 20 EUR for a entire octopus. Wine between 15 - 30 EUR per bottle.

The menu is printed in Italian, English and German. Our friends got the Oysters (Ostriche Belon second stagionalita) and reported that they were excellent. Another friend got the Astice alla Catalans (Lobster with vegetable’s salad) and was very happy. At 38 Euros that was an excellent price. In fact, with 3+ bottles of wine, a multiple course dinner cost us less than 70 Euros a couple. The location is beautiful, right on the north side of Lake Tresimeno. I...
