The place
The Ristorante La Torre di Pretoro occupies an ancient watchtower in the heart of the medieval Abruzzo village. The region's typical cuisine takes shape in rooms where stone tells centuries of history: brick vaults and a dining room carved from the rock. Chef and owner Patrizia Salvatore selects excellent local ingredients for a menu that unites tradition with care for raw materials.
At the table
The Ristorante La Torre di Pretoro is housed within the ancient watchtower of the village, one of the most striking medieval nuclei in Abruzzo.
