We stumbled across this fine establishment by chance and we were so glad we did! Calamari is fresh and you can tell, the breading is crispy and squid tender. As another review mentioned, it's really nice to take away and sit around the marina instead of table service for a change. It's already super popular and it's easy to see why (:

Ogni anno che veniamo in ferie, tappa fissa! Tutto buonissimo, pesce che profuma di mare, frittelle di tutti i tipi, zucchine, cipolle, sardella, arancini di gamberi fenomenali. Se venite alle Castella lo trovate vicino al porto, non potete fare a meno di passare e assaporare tutte queste delizie!

Di recentissima apertura, è già diventato uno dei miei locali preferiti a Le Castella! Il perché? Perché chi è stato a Le Castella lo sa che, mentre passeggi per le vie del paese ti pervade quell'irresistibile profumo di pesce fritto, e tu hai già pranzato o cenato e non ti va di andare a sederti in un ristorante ma un assaggio di frittura te lo concederesti volentieri... be' finalmente c'è il posto giusto! Un chiosco sul porto dove poter acquistare il tuo cuoppo/vaschetta di ottimo pesce fritto (ma non solo, si trovano anche patatine fritte, nuggets di pollo, anelli di cipolla e verdure in pastella) e gustarlo camminando mentre ammiri le bellezze del borgo accarezzato dalla brezza del mare Cosa volere di più? Il personale è formato da giovani cordiali e disponibili ad accogliere le richieste della clientela. Il rapporto qualità prezzo è ottimo! Lo consiglio, fateci un salto!
