10/10Today for lunch, we had the pleasure of dining at Meraviglioso, and it was an exceptional experience. The highlight of the meal was the orange wine recommended by our server—it was fantastic, possibly the best we've ever had. Its complexity perfectly complemented each dish. The octopus with potato was easily the best dish of the meal. Tender and charred to perfection, it paired wonderfully with the creamy potatoes. The fish carpaccio was another standout—clean, fresh, and light. The pasta dish, though well-prepared, was our least favorite and didn’t quite stand out as much as the rest. On the other hand, the lamb main was sublime, perfectly balancing flavors and textures. Overall, an outstanding meal with incredible food and excellent service. Highly recommended!

8/10Food was delicious. We only had one dish that we thought could have been better. Service was very slow we had to grab a waiter numerous times after waiting for so long, service was also not incredibly warm. I still recommend.

5/10The pasta was very good, but I had the fish for my main meal and it was very fishy tasting. I couldn’t have more than one bite. The servers did not ask me if I liked it and they took away the plate completely untouched and never said a thing about it. My friend had the steak and enjoyed it. I would not go back. The bathroom door didn’t lock and It looks very dirty and unkept for a nice restaurant.

10/10Everything was great, food, service, atmosphere. Only a bit limited choice for glass of wine (only one type of each).

7.5/10The food was excellent however, the service was very poor. It lacks the attention one expects of such a level of restaurant. The waiter even mixed up the desssert. I did not complain but frankly I was gob struck. The setting is fine for a scenic town as Poligniano but nothing spectacular. The interior is very nice and clean, however the service needs to compliment the positive attributes. I was expecting more.

8.5/10Great location and food however, the staff were less than I expected at the restaurant. We needed to ask twice for a wine menu and only received it when the starters arrived. We were charged for 2 bottles of water when we had only 1 and had a very disgruntled response when queried. The food was absolutely amazing and the wine was great when we received it but I left feeling unsure if I would recommend to friends and family.

8/10Ambiance/location is great especially when the sun goes down and you can enjoy the terrace with a nice breeze. We were several people and food was a hit or miss. Look was very good on all dishes, very Insta worthy. Some dishes were extremely refined and good (Red Snaper), other dishes were quite disappointing like the Amberjack fish (waitress said it was grilled when it actually seemed it was steamed). Tiramisu was a major disappointment, whipped cream.... and you can barely feel any coffee to counter the sweetness of the mascarpone. From a service standpoint, most staff was very nice and with a smile which is what you would expect from a place trying to up their game, but one waitress in particular always had an unhappy face which conveys a negative vibe on the overall experience. The most disappointed thing is they force you to take 2 dishes, so although each dish is priced in the 25-28E range, by the time you add 2 of them plus a 5E silverware cost it adds up quickly...

10/10To start, the oysters were magnificent. Have 2 per person. The tasting menu was also very good. Sommelier was on par. Great recommendation for after dinner wine.

10/10Wonderful birthday dinner right on the Volare piazza with water view! Excellent service and recommendations. I chose the grilled octopus and tuna parmigiana appetizers and both were amazing! The orrichette and snapper were perfect! Their wine selections were from local vinyards that cannot be purchased elsewhere which was lovely! Prices were very comparable with other restaurants. Worth the Michelin rating!
