Reviews Summary
La Darsena Stintino offers a stunning waterfront setting and a diverse menu with a focus on fresh seafood and sushi. While many praise the delicious food, especially the lobster and pasta, and the warm, attentive service, some diners find the prices to be quite high for the quality and experience. Occasional comments mention under-seasoned food or slow service during busy periods.
"Top 5 meals I ever had.
Excellent service, perfect view & plenty of gluten free options including GF pasta! (I ended up having the squid ink risotto which was SO GOOD).
Very memorable & pleasant experience :——)"

"★☆☆☆☆
We had dinner at La Darsena and were shocked by the outrageous wine prices. A bottle of Guidalberto 2023, which normally retails for around €60, was charged at €385. The Tignanello 2016 was also priced far above what is reasonable, even for a fine dining restaurant. While we understand that restaurants apply a markup, this level of pricing is unacceptable and feels exploitative. The food was good, but the value for money was very disappointing. I strongly recommend checking wine prices carefully before ordering."

"A Bland experience and a very unprofessional response calling me an idiot?! ⭐️⭐️ (please see photos)
Unfortunately all our food was under seasoned.
The head or sous chef must taste the food before it’s off the pass.
So far the most Un loved Spaghetti Vongole iv had including in the UK.
The oysters were opened incorrectly and had a cut right through them with a horrible high critic sauce that killed it completely.
The service was caring and nice but a little to proud in manner meaning (unapproachable in some ways)
A lovely spot to dine at but the dishes need work and not once was my wine poured for me or any one check if the food was good after the first few minutes of serving.
The tiramisu was delicious!
If you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen."
