Ristorante Gino

Ancona


Housed in a tatty pink building across from the railway station, this old-school restaurant is unlikely to charm you with its good looks. However, it enjoys a strong local reputation for its stoccafisso all'anconetana, Ancona's trademark cod speciality, and classic seafood staples such as zuppa di pesce (fish soup).
