Uliassi

Senigallia

Innovative, memorable Italian cooking with a view to match

Stunning surrounds: Sitting like a pearl between the marina and the beach, Uliassi is set in a beautiful white wooden structure with an iconic summer balcony overlooking the sea. The location is home to head chef Mauro and maître d' sister Catia Uliassi, who welcome guests to this unique restaurant with open arms.

Classic and contemporary: Uliassi’s cuisine is now a well-known reference for gourmets from all over the world. It manages to move seamlessly between classical and innovative plates, all at a super-premium level. This is thanks to the Uliassi Lab: a creative effort involving the entire team, which gathers to come up with new, exciting ideas during the winter months.

Marrying land and sea: The uniqueness of Uliassi’s cuisine is found in the chef’s study of marine flavours and how they meet – and ‘contaminate’ – meat-based products. It’s part of a sea-land exchange typical of the Marche regional tradition. Thanks to a careful balancing act between ingredients, consistencies, techniques and temperatures, every dish manages to surprise and delight.

What dishes to expect: After the timeless appetisers (regular guests would revolt if chef were to phase them out), which include a foie gras wafer and kir royale, dishes arrive including seared cuttlefish, cheek lard oil, chard, honey and anchovy sauce; and pasta with tomato sauce ‘Alla Hilde’ – an ode to perfumer Hilde Soliani, Every year the team adds 10 new courses presented along with a Classic menu.

Keeping it local: The Uliassi siblings were born and raised in the area and opened the restaurant in 1990.
