Ristorante Alla Fonte — Restaurant in Scanno

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable meals I have ever experienced. From the moment I walked through the door, I was struck by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and immediately made me feel welcome, setting the tone for what would be a truly wonderful evening.

The interior of the restaurant is beautifully designed, blending modern elegance with a touch of rustic charm. Soft lighting, tasteful décor, and well-spaced tables created an environment that felt both comfortable and refined. Whether you are dining with family, friends, or on a special occasion, the ambiance makes it a perfect setting for any type of gathering.

Now, onto the food—which was the true star of the evening. Every dish we tried was an absolute delight, showcasing not only the chef’s skill but also the restaurant’s commitment to using high-quality, fresh ingredients. To start, we shared a selection of appetizers, including a perfectly seasoned bruschetta and a creamy burrata with heirloom tomatoes. The flavors were bright and balanced, and the presentation was both simple and elegant.

For the main course, I ordered a wood-fired pizza while my companion enjoyed a fresh seafood pasta. The pizza was outstanding: the crust light and airy with just the right amount of char from the oven, topped with rich tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil. The pasta was equally impressive, with perfectly cooked noodles and a sauce that was both delicate and full of flavor. Every bite tasted like it was made with care and passion.

We couldn’t resist dessert, and I am so glad we saved room. The tiramisu was the best I have ever had—light yet indulgent, with just the right balance of coffee and cream. Paired with an espresso, it was the perfect ending to an unforgettable meal.

Beyond the food, what stood out most was the exceptional service. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, always ready to offer recommendations, refill drinks, and check in at just the right times. They were knowledgeable about the menu and eager to ensure that every guest left happy. It is rare to find a team that combines professionalism with genuine warmth, but this restaurant has achieved it effortlessly.

Another aspect worth mentioning is the value for money. While the quality of the food and service could easily justify much higher prices, the restaurant has managed to keep everything reasonable, making it accessible without compromising excellence.

Overall, this dining experience was outstanding in every way. The atmosphere, the food, the service, and the attention to detail all came together to create an evening that I will not soon forget. I left the restaurant not only satisfied but truly impressed. This is the kind of place that reminds you why dining out can be such a joy. Without hesitation, I give this restaurant a full five stars and look forward to returning...

PROPRIETARIO SERVE AI TAVOLI SENZA MASCHERINA, CUCINA DISCRETA.

Volevamo passare un pranzo domenicale il più possibile normale post covid, invece appena arrivati ci ha accolto il proprietario senza mascherina. Alla nostra richiesta di mettersela per servirci ci ha iniziato ad esporre le sue motivazioni, adducendo al suo medico che gli avrebbe sconsigliato di indossarla perchè non lo protegge...tutto questo davanti ad una neonata...siamo rimasti basiti, forse 4 mesi di covid non sono bastati a comprendere l'uso delle mascherine e comunque vige l'ordinanza nazionale e regionale per cui tutti gli operatori sono obbligati a portarla. Risultato: non ha servito noi ma gli altri tavoli, sempre SENZA MASCHERINA. Noi siamo stati serviti dalla moglie e dalla figlia molto cortesi, con mascherina e particolare attenzione all'igiene. Riguardo il cibo nulla da dire, antipasti eccezionali e primi all'altezza della cucina abruzzese. Peccato per il tempo, ha iniziato a diluviare, eravamo sotto il tendone che ha retto per un buon quarto d'ora , ma poi ha iniziato a trasudare acqua dal tessuto evidentemente non impermeabile. Abbiamo dovuto finire di mangiare in piedi per non bagnarci in quanto dentro NON c'erano posti disponibili. Alla fine conto superiore alla media, nessuno sconto per il disagio creato, solo un amaro e caffè offerti a dispetto dei 2 euro per coperto e 2 euro per l'acqua filtrata... mi spiace ma non torneremo. Grazie comunque alla titolare per la cortesia e gentilezza ma di questi tempi 50 cent di mascherina fanno...
