Osteria Del Pozzo

Due to recommended list provided by our hotel (Grand Palace Hotel in Ancona) we visited this excellent trattoria. Service was professional, friendly, kind and fast, and the food…absolutely delicious. Well prepared, more than enough, we enjoyed every bite. The amount of grappa poured was very generous and the local wine perfectly paired with the main course. We would visit it again!

We were pleasantly surprised by this place. The proprietor was very friendly and informative. He cautioned against ordering too much and was honest about the wine selections. We ordered the fish of the day for two - monkfish. It was unbelievably good, with shrimp, mussels, clams, potatoes and vegetables in a tomato and olive oil sauce. The only dessert we could consume was a couple of sparkling wines… at 3 euros each! The value for the money, the food and the service were top notch.

The host was extremely friendly, also translating the menu. Thanks to his recommendations we had a sublime meal! The best fish platter (cold) and pasta with cod and burrata/vongole. In a quiet street outside of busy piazza. Highly recommended!

Had to stop for dinner in Ancona, followed out instincts into this cozy Osteria. The instincts were right. The starter was original, had a good taste and I wanted it to last forever. The pastas as well. I really appreciate when restaurants can offer something traditional and original at the same time. If you’re in Ancona, you should not miss Osteria del Pozzo!

If you like traditional Italian food, do not miss this place!

Soooooo good, friendly hosts and cosy atmosphere! We had the big cold platter appetiser and two seafood pasta dishes. We were both quite hungry and we thought the portions were just right. We were there on a Saturday night. Best to call in and book beforehand to avoid disappointment. It was quite busy when we were there. Highly recommend and we hope to visit again, the fish that passed by smelled amazing and would love to try that next time.

Good restaurant with decent prices - we can recommend the ravioli with cod Fish (big portion of Fish) and ravioli vegetariana. The staff was friendly and welcome Also tasty tiramisu

Small restaurant off the main street with the best pasta I've ever eaten....ever! We ordered ravioli with fresh tomatoes, burrata cheese and eggplant that will be hard to beat and the mixed grilled seafood which was also delicious. Dessert was a must. My husband will forever remember the tiramisu. The house red wine and local beer complimented our meal perfectly. Good value and service was great. Highly recommend.

What a find! Clearly a locals place, but very welcoming to the wandering tourist. Warm decor, fabulous food. Loved our host and staff. We took the time for a traditional, multi-course Italian lunch. The seafood pasta was exquisite, followed by grilled fish, and grilled calamari. Fresh, plentiful, impeccably prepared. Tiramisu was more like a pudding than a cake, but had some of the best flavor we've come across in the Med. Bypass those touristy places on the piazza, and slip around the corner to this place. Oh-so-good.
