An Unforgettable Experience at La Traditionale:
Mediterranean & Italian Excellence and Warm Service
From the moment we set foot in La Traditionale, we knew we were in the right place. Ideally situated right on the Mediterranean coast, this restaurant offers not only a magnificent setting but, more importantly, a welcoming atmosphere that instantly envelops you. It is the very embodiment of genuine hospitality, where the pleasure of the host and the quality of the cuisine come together to create a memorable experience.
A Feast of Flavors La Traditionale's menu is a fulfilled promise of authentic flavors. We started with the anchovy and burrata bruschettas, a delicate and fresh starter, perfect for whetting the appetite. The meal continued brilliantly: the seafood spaghetti was stunningly fresh, a true delight of the sea. The pesto fettuccine, for their part, demonstrated the excellence and simplicity of classic Italian cuisine. Every dish was excellent, executed with care and highlighting the quality of the ingredients. To conclude this feast, coffee and a digestif perfected the moment, leaving a delicious impression of satiety and satisfaction.
Silviu: The Humorous and Cinematic Server :) However, what truly made this evening exceptional was our server, Silviu. His warm welcome and sense of humor elevated the experience from a simple meal to a moment of pure enjoyment. He has a knack for creating a connection and a genuine exchange with his guests. We will long remember the little joke where, knowing my eagerness for the seafood spaghetti, he made me believe for a moment that they were out! It was a truly fun moment of shared laughter. Oh, and for the Hollywood touch: according to my wife, Silviu strongly resembles... George Clooney! :)
Quality service, an incredible atmosphere, and, as a bonus, a resemblance to a cinema icon—what more could you ask for?
Conclusion La Traditionale is much more than a restaurant; it is a culinary destination where the excellence of the food rivals the generosity of the hospitality. The team, led by people like Silviu, makes every visit special.
We are certain: everything was perfect, from the food to the service. We will definitely return on our next visit to the region.
This is an establishment that we warmly recommend to everyone! Overall Rating: \star \star \star \star \star (Five Stars - A...
Read moreWe made a big mistake choosing this restaurant. At the beginning it was quite okay, waiter was rather talkative and we thought we will have a good food with some rest. Unfortunately the food we ordered was terrible - the pizza was tasteless, we informed about it and waiter brought some spicy oil, but to be honest it wouldn’t change anything about this strange taste of “having no taste” and being loaded with some bad quality ingredients. He also told us that this is real Italian pizza - it was not, we’ve been to Italy multiple times and definitely a big NO. Actually it felt like he told us we don’t have an idea how the Italian pizza taste, what a strange manner while not knowing anything about the clients. My husband also had a soup, but it looked so bad so I didn’t even tried it. He left more than a half of the soup and we left ~80% of pizza, however we paid the whole bill, with no “sorry” nor any compensation. Waiter and waitress served simultaneously our table so a few words about the waitress as she also reached the pro level of being unprofessional and impolite. My husband said to her that the pizza will be “for the lady” - because it was for me actually. When she came with the pizza she pulled her face and said “for the lady” like she was mocking words of my husband. I really think that such kind of people shouldn’t work with other people...
