Rique - Castelromano

A good aperitif

I went with a small group of friends (5) to eat a pizza. We chose pizzas from a handwritten menu where there were a few pizzas (with relative prices) and nothing else. Without being able to consult the menu, we then ordered 3 half-liter bottles of water and 2 cans of Coca-Cola. The total of the pizzas amounted to €42. When we asked for the bill, we were brought a handwritten piece of paper bearing the sum of 78. At that point, no one said anything and each of us paid her share. When we were about to leave the waiter came back saying that 2 euros were missing and we gave them to him. When we realized that we had paid a disproportionate amount for what we had ordered, we returned to the restaurant, but it was already closed. We want to believe that the waiter or whoever was inside taking the bill was somehow confused, even though the handwritten bill indicated our pizzas. In short: from €42 of pizzas, it takes a lot to get to €78 in bill and it seems unlikely that 3 half-litre bottles of water and 2 cans of Coca-Cola could cost €36. In conclusion, unfortunately, I cannot say that the experience was entirely positive.

The place is small but the pizza is perfect Price per person: €10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Parking space: Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options: Free street parking

Beautiful venue in the historic center of Isernia, a few steps from the cathedral. The staff is trained and professional, excellent assortment of wines that can be enjoyed by the glass or whole bottle, pizzas absolutely more than good and excellently prepared, to rival the best in Naples!!! A must stop for those who want quality at fair prices!!! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Excellent cocktail list, the best here in Isernia, and of good quality. However, 9 euros each is too much, in addition to the drink, for a few appetizers (cutting board) that accompanied the evening aperitif. In any case, the focaccia made by them is very good. The view of the cathedral and the square is beautiful. Price per person: €10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
