A Trabocco is a unique fishing pier found along the Adriatic coast of Abruzzo.

    Great dinner. Seafood special and seafood stew were very good. Nice wine selection by the glass. staff very attentive. A lively crowd for a Tuesday night. The last time we were here a couple years back, we didn't think the food was all that great. But they have clearly made many wonderful improvements since then. Would recommend. It is probably THE most fancy restaurant in Alameda. But the prices are fair. We booked the reservation (recommend) through Open Table, where we noted are preferences. The hostess was aware of these when we arrived.

    You can't go wrong with their pizzas and their specials are always worth listening to. Great wine list heavy on Italian vintages plus some interesting glasses from elsewhere. Save room for the Zabaglione!

    The service was outstanding. Greta gave us her attention and made sure we had everything we wanted like refills of tea, water and wine. Food is always incredible and we were all very happy with our choices. Already planning a return visit!

    Waiter was a little edgy, inpatient. Doesn’t like repeating chef specials but says so fast hard to absorb choices. Other than that everything was good.

    Trabocco is a favorite when choosing a place to dine. Giuseppe and his wife make all feel welcome, and the food never disappoints.
