Gambero Rosso: Seafood Facing the Port

If you're looking for a table in Porto Ercole, the Gambero Rosso is the address that keeps coming up for its seafood and impeccable service. The restaurant is renowned for its marine cuisine and its direct location on the harbor, a fact you cannot ignore.

What you really eat here

Here, the cuisine is Italian, but above all focused on the sea. Customers often talk about very successful fish dishes. You'll find offerings like the Mazzancolla, or also oysters, with precise varieties like the Ostrica Bonsonge and the Ostrica Pleiade Poget. It's the kind of detail that tells you the place doesn't do things by halves when it comes to seafood.

Chef Andrea Pera showcases this marine cuisine. Beyond the dishes, the local reputation insists on the quality of the welcome and the careful table setting. The setting is Lungomare Andrea Doria, 62, directly on the waterfront. You eat facing the small harbor, which is no small thing. It's not a made-up atmosphere, it's the reality of the location that contributes to the experience.

Why this table rather than another

Choosing the Gambero Rosso means opting for a table that won't disappoint you on the quality of seafood and the attention paid to service. Feedback is unanimous: excellence of service is a constant, almost as important as the cuisine itself. It's an address where you know you'll be well received and your plate will live up to expectations, all for an average price around 40 euros, which is consistent for such quality by the sea.

Eating ultra-fresh fish facing the boats of Porto Ercole without getting knocked out by the bill is rare in the Argentario: aim for a terrace table at sunset to fully enjoy the view over the harbor!
