Reviewers rave about the soulful Caponata, its sweet-sour depth stealing the show. The overall vibe is rustic, warm, and deeply satisfying, like a home-cooked Italian feast.
“This caponata has swordfish, and it's beautifully balanced — you can taste the mint, the vinegar is not overpowering, the tomato is sweet, and there's fresh basil. It's super oily in a good way. I can see all the right vegetables: eggplant, celery, carrot, tomato. Really good. Paid €8.”

The reviewer visited Da Gino Tutto alla Brace, a place known for its 'alla brace' (grilled) kebab. While the concept of grilled kebab and the quality of some ingredients like the fries (crispy, flavorful) are praised, the overall experience with the kebab is mixed. The kebab itself is described as extremely spiced, to the point of masking the meat's flavor, and has a fatty texture that isn't unpleasant but noticeable. A significant issue is the composition of the kebab, where ingredients are not layered for a balanced bite, leading to a disjointed eating experience. The piadina used for the kebab is considered gummy and industrially made. Despite these drawbacks, the reviewer acknowledges the effort in making the 'spiato' (kebab meat) alla brace and the quality of individual ingredients, suggesting that the composition needs improvement for a better overall kebab experience. The price is also considered reasonable for the grilled kebab and the variety of condiments.

Kebab alla brace
This is a kebab with grilled spit-roasted chicken and turkey, extremely spiced and quite fatty — but not the nasty gristly fat, just rich. I added grilled vegetables, caponata, eggplant with ricotta salata, and fried potatoes. The meat is well-charred but the spice blend is so strong it almost masks the meat flavor, which is a shame because they make the spit themselves. The piadina wrap is industrial and a bit chewy, and the biggest issue is the composition — it's served open, so you can't get all ingredients in one bite. You have to hunt for the potatoes, the mushrooms, the meat separately. The ingredients themselves are very good, but the structure needs work. Paid €6 — worth it for the quality of ingredients and the grilled spit.
