I have been dining at Antipastoteca di Mare a couple of times over the past few years and I always leave totally satisfied with the quality of the meal. The food is super tasty and you'll be ordering dishes that you don't find on normal seafood restaurant menus. First, let me tell you about the place. It's difficult to find,... More

We went to the place for a dinner just thanks to all the reviews on the Tripadviser and did not regret any minute. Though a place hard to find, but the place was worth it. Food was very fresh and delicious. However, make sure you book a table in advance, as the place is small. It serves traditional fish food... More

Allow me to review an expectation of a future dinner, built on a visit in person. We were in Trieste days ago, and checked out quite a few restaurants while visiting the town - say half a dozen. Or maybe visited half a dozen recommended restaurants to choose one for dinner and stumbled upon some sights on our way, granted.... More

We came to this restaurant by reviews on Trip Advisor. After eating at the restaurant we have to agree with the Excellent reviews. We showed up around 7 p.m. to be welcomed in by the owner. We were the only customers for about an hour on this Thursday night in early August. For our first course we had the seafood... More

Google maps sent me the hard way - up the hill to the castle and down a bit. What we found was the best meal of our trip. The owner chatted with us a bit and then told what we should order. The fish soup was the best I've ever had. Nothing fancy but excellent food prepared by people who... More

After reading the other reviews here, I've decided to try this place myself. As a starter, I've ordered a skewer with shrimps. That was just delicious. Really, one of the best starters I have memory of. The pasta I've ordered soon thereafter was very good also. And price was adequate (I've spent 20€ total, including 5€ for two cans of... More

We wouldn’t ever think of dining there if not the recommendations in Trieste Forum, and most probably we wouldn’t even notice it. Located off the track, on one of the small side streets up on the hill, the place is full thanks to its reputation. The walls are covered with the articles from international media which adds to somewhat tacky... More

Choice is restricted, but quality is good. A good choice for a budget fish dinner.
