Cile's

Cile's is a family-run restaurant located in Fano, Italy, distinguished by its focus on classic cuisine that highlights fresh fish and seafood. Recognized with a Bib Gourmand distinction from the Michelin Guide, the restaurant is managed by the Ricci family: Cile oversees administration and supply, Alessandra runs the dining room, and Nicola Ricci leads the kitchen and curates the wine list. The menu balances quality with generous portions, featuring signature dishes such as fish carbonara, tuna tartare with burrata and pistachios, and the inventive "L’ultimo Mango a Parigi," which pairs tataki of tuna with grilled mango and soy mayonnaise. The restaurant’s décor reflects its artisan inspiration and family heritage, incorporating wrought iron furniture painted in Provencal style, sea-inspired objects, hand-painted restroom doors, and an aromatic herb garden in the anteroom. This eclectic, warm setting is enhanced by soft evening lighting and candles on every table, creating a romantic atmosphere. Nicola Ricci’s kitchen applies traditional techniques to fresh seafood, crafting sophisticated dishes like seafood fritto with tempura vegetables and tuna sashimi accompanied by melon and ACE gazpacho. The menu also offers seafood antipasti tasting options that conclude with thoughtfully prepared desserts.
