The catering was very satisfactory, ample space, music (not live ) good waiting staff, prepared and discreet in recommending the appetizers (excellent ) which are at the personal choice of the chef. First courses and frying very good fish, accompanied by an excellent wine. The management of Mr. Franco seemed good to me but I didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. Very positive experience. I do not want to forget the wonderful fireworks (perhaps as a closing of the summer in the evening of 31/8/24 that coincided with my birthday, so very pleasant) as a final surprise. The finish, always reserved for the cost of dinner, seemed a bit excessive. I think next year I can come back as my family of origin has been attending the Papeete bathing establishment for many years.
Thank you.

The location is beautiful, facing the sea, with a beautiful sunny day it is really worth it, but a series of precautions were missing. Despite the turnout on Saturday for lunch, the order was taken quite quickly and the starters arrived almost immediately, but between those and the first courses we waited almost an hour. Not only that, mine arrived a quarter of an hour after my partner's, so he ate his cold, while mine was so salty that I finished it more out of hunger than anything else. Be careful, lupins and bottarga go well together, but either you don't salt the pasta water or you adjust, in short I don't have to tell the chef how to cook, but a little more attention (even when cleaning the lupins, at times full of earth) would not hurt. We also ordered two sgroppini at the end of the meal, which never arrived. Average bill, around €70 for two. A lunch below expectations and for this reason I wouldn't return, but it can be improved.

Sunday lunch, sunny day, restaurant practically on the beach with both indoor and outdoor tables. We were connected inside where thanks to a huge glass wall we could admire the sea. The spacious and minimally furnished tables, the excellent food and very fresh fish, a sore point is the service. Five of us ordered 2 papeete appetizers which included seafood supplì, cuttlefish salad (which particularly impressed me), marinated salmon, sautéed mussels and octopus Luciana style, a plentiful and quality appetizer although recommended for 4 we ate easily 5 of us. To continue we ordered a first course each of high quality. To conclude, fry squid to degrease. Moving on to the service, it was not in line with the quality of the dishes, they lost our reservation, they forgot to bring the bread, they brought the first courses while the starter plates were still present on the table and some first courses were brought to a table next door, finally ordering the coffees took several reminders and more than half an hour. Maybe it was just the wrong day but there was a certain disorganization in the room. Price around 43, I would recommend it and perhaps I would also recommend greater attention to the service.

I had lunch at this seaside restaurant on Friday 23 February, I was with a colleague. The day wasn't beautiful, but seeing the very rough sea up close on a typical winter day from a cozy veranda always has a nice effect. We were greeted by very efficient and knowledgeable staff. The icing on the cake was that the owner was also present and kept us company with kindness and competence, making us feel at ease. We listened to the staff's advice regarding the menu. We had a seafood appetizer with fish balls, octopus, mussels, seafood salad and fried octopus. All delicious, simple but absolutely impeccable dishes. We then got a second. I sliced sea bass and my colleague fried paranza. What can I say, it was all delicious. We concluded with coffee and wine donut offered on the house. The bill was absolutely in line with what we ate. In short, kindness, warmth, a welcoming environment, kind and competent staff made a quick lunch a moment of extreme pleasure. Congratulations again to Michela and her team. Well done. An experience that I would recommend and that I hope I will repeat soon.

We waited a long time for the dishes, but the most disconcerting thing was the price: 3 first courses and a chicken cutlet for the child, a very small fry as a starter (only one, not one each) and a bottle of water: 105 euros! Definitely expensive even for the quality of the food! We live in the center of Rome in many places both in Rome and in Ladispoli you eat better and spend less!

Lunch couple during week
Quality of food and presentation of the flawless dish, we will return to try other dishes.
Restricted menu but I think it's a chef's choice.
Wide wine list but unbalanced in the value for money, missing the part of natural wines.
Attentive but not intrusive service
Location? cured you eat almost almost at the beach and taste fish in the sun by the tide November is priceless. Congratulations

It was the most terrible experience we have ever had! First of all it took them forever to take the order. Second, we asked for beers to come together with the food and they brought it way in advance. Third, the first plates (pasta) came way later after the second plates and even worse, the pasta were not hot! You ask for lemon for the fish and the waiter says coming and he never bring it! The service in general was disastrous. The quantity of food was so poor and after all that, you would pay a price that would be paid in a 5 stars restaurant but not in a reataurant like this at all! What else to say, just a lunch to forget.

Papeete is our establishment; this time for lunch we stop on the veranda.
very pleasant place, elegant and discreet environment.
service always very friendly but a bit slow (and forgetful).
the cost (2.5€ per person) I do not understand, the price of the dishes does not justify this extra.
pleasant tables on the veranda, especially on hot summer days.
good value for money; we enjoyed all the dishes chosen. high prices of dishes.
spaghetti lupini / lupoini and bottarga: pasta cooked well, adequate seasoning quantity a little.
grilled vegetables: good
prosecco: good, fresh, generous glass

Good food but without that "wow, I want to go back" Friendly and polite but unprepared staff, they get lost in nothingness, too bad! A little more would be enough to be (in my opinion) a regular place. I haven't asked for the bill yet so my rating is solely on the quality of the food and service

A place to absolutely avoid. Starter arrived before wine. Wine arrived before the glass (yeah). It was even opened without still having glasses on the table! Ice for the wine (after many reminders) they brought it to us after the bottle was already empty... well the waiter at least had a laugh (sorry no for goodness' sake) The cherry on the cake: my husband's first dish ever seen... .in an hour and a half of stay they were unable to serve…never again!

Horrible place. Spiteful people who throw you out as soon as you finish clearing the table. Not tasty food. False access to the beach with a closed door. Tourist and only interested in making money. Luckily there are other restaurants in Ladispoli

Ream of bandits, uneducated and unrelated to the services of a good restaurant. To avoid. They do not have anything in common with the true italian cuisine.
