Da Lele, Pizzeria in Riccione, Italy.
Da Lele is a restaurant and pizzeria on Viale Gabriele D'Annunzio in Riccione, close to the seafront. It serves seafood, meat dishes, and traditional Italian pizzas alongside recipes drawn from the Adriatic region.
The Leoni family founded this restaurant, building it around their knowledge of local fishing along the Adriatic coast and family recipes passed down through generations. It has remained a family-run place ever since.
Da Lele takes its name from the nickname of its founder, and regulars still call it that as a sign of familiarity. The food here follows the eating habits of the Adriatic coast, where seafood has long been at the center of everyday meals.
The restaurant is close to the beach and opens in the evening. Reservations can be made by phone or email, and booking ahead is a good idea, especially on weekends or during the summer season.
Da Lele prepares dishes for guests with dietary restrictions, including gluten-free options, as a standard part of its daily offer rather than an exception. This attention to individual needs is built into how the kitchen works, not added as an afterthought.
