La Trattoria is an Italian pizzeria and restaurant in Tarifa, with a menu centred on pizzas, pasta and traditional Italian dishes.

Nous étions dans la salle en intérieur, les serveuses/serveurs ne se sont jamais dirigés vers nous d’eux meme. Nous devions à chaque fois nous lever pour leur dire de venir. Ensuite nous avions eu l’entree puis les pizza sans eau ni meme LES VERRES sur la table. Nous nous sommes levés 4 fois pour en demander. A chaque fois les serveuses partaient en nous tournant le dos sans meme prononcer un mot. Nous avons fini par recevoir de l’eau et des verres par la manageuse qui est la seule a sourire en servant. On voulait prendre un tiramisu mais leur attitude nous a totalement dégoûté et nous avions préféré partir que de s’adresser a un personnel agacé. En résumé le service est lamentable, extrêmement décevant. Pour finir sur une bonne note, les plats sont excellents, bien au dessus de la qualité des autres restaurants locaux.

Restaurant bien placé. Pizza très bonne, sauf comme déjà mentionné plusieurs fois dans les avis. La pâte n’est pas assez cuite. Dommage.car elle présente bien et beaucoup de marchandises dessus. Dommage que l’on ne tienne pas compte de l’avis des clients , car cela ne coûte rien de cuire la pizza 5min. de plus
