Ricci Pescato e Fritto
Ricci Pescato & Fritto
A fish shop and fry stand run by a fishing family in Numana, frying to order; an affordable favorite that often has long queues.
Ricci Pescato e Fritto is at No. 44A Via Flaminia in Numana and is run by a fishing family, with much of the fish caught by their own boats. You choose your fish at the counter, and the staff clean, weigh and fry it on the spot, for a dry, crisp result. Signature items include the mixed fried seafood platter, Ascoli-style fried olives, anchovy sandwiches, octopus and potato salad, and saffron seafood red pasta. No reservations are taken; you take a number, and in peak season the wait can be long, so arrive about half an hour before mealtime. Dine in or take away. About €15–25 per person.
Opening hours
Lunch from about 12:00; dinner from early evening; queues in peak season
