“ Absolutely delicious pizza al taglio for great price. Large selection, at the right hours of the day. ”
“ During August, when it's tourist season, the place is always full, so best reserve a place here. The food was delicious, portion sizes big enough, prices were easily affordable and service was very good. It isn't a typical dinner type restaurant but basically a fast food joint with seating arrangements, but boy is there food tasty. The arrosticini (piccante ones - they are hot ) were mouthwatering and reminded me of India. I loved the experience here and would go back again. ”
“ Almost 5.0 rating over 1500 reviews means you can't go wrong with it! It's our go to self service restaurant for lunch every year we are in Francavilla. Fresh ingredients always at a low price (even though they recently increased prices). ”
“ Love this Pizzeria! Pizza's are fantastic. The owner and staff are simply brilliant. Our six year old son was acutely dehydrated during our visit. The owner of the restaurant took us to the local GP practice and stayed with us to help interpret and look after our other children. Truly wonderful lovely people! ”
“ The best lunch, high quality and cosy place to have a break. Also food for flexitarians, lots of veggie sides and veg dishes. ”
“ Il ghiottone is an Italian restaurant in Francavilla, if you ask anyone from francavilla, they’ll know about it. For dinner they propose menu for a good a price and you get to choose what you want in the plate. At night it’s a à la carte menu, which I personally prefer. they propose arrosticini which is an abruzzese speciality those are very good there but there’s also meat, pasta and else. Appetizers are also good and I recommend trying it as the diverse desert, I’ve been there many times every year and never been disappointed. ”
