In Trieste no restaurants are more common than those serving either seafood or pizza, but very few specialise in both - at least until Marinato opened in the spring of 2013. Located in a prime position along the waterfront promenade, just one block west of the grand Savoia Excelsior Hotel, Marinato's interior has been created to resemble a typical fish market, with lots of blue and white tiles, high wood-beam ceilings and a pizza oven doing its impersonation of a lighthouse. The seafood dishes a served simple and fresh, while a sign behind the counter charmingly assures guests that the pizzas are made with love.
