The story
Tucked along Via Salaria in Spinetoli, La Loganda degli Amici is the kind of truck-stop trattoria that upends every low expectation. Creators JustUs, in a video provocatively titled “La MIGLIORE TRATTORIA da CAMIONISTI nelle MARCHE ?,” describe it as a place that surprised them with “excellent food, especially the fried antipasto and the incredible steak.” The value-to-quality ratio, they note, is exceptional.
The menu leans hard into Marche classics. The Fritto Misto all’Ascolana leads the antipasti, flanked by Affettati Misti. Pasta comes in two hearty forms: Tagliatelle al Ragù Bianco con Funghi Porcini and Strozzapreti al Ragù di Castrato. For the main event, the Tagliata di Manzo con Patate al Forno earns the “incredible” label. JustUs calls it a “must-visit” for anyone passing through—a neighborhood favorite that delivers far more than its roadside setting promises.

A truck-stop trattoria in the Marche region that surprised us with excellent food, especially the fried antipasto and the incredible steak. Great value for the quality and portions. A must-visit if you're in the area.
Dishes mentioned
Fritto Misto all'Ascolana
The fried food looks dry, no condiments. The olives are soft and juicy, with a little fat vein that melts when you bite. Crispy and salted just right, freshly made. It tastes homemade, good. I can feel a bit of spicy heat inside the olive all'ascolana with chili. The frying is really well done. There's this sweet fried custard bite among all the salty stuff — it stands out. You'd eat 150,000 of them.
Affettati Misti
A small sample of salami, wild boar sausage, and a couple of cheese slices. The salami and sausage were tasty.
Tagliatelle al Ragù Bianco con Funghi Porcini
The tagliatelle didn't seem homemade, but that's not a negative — it's clearly good quality pasta. Cooked super al dente, with a thick, well-flavored white ragù and plenty of porcini mushrooms. The dish is simple but tasty, the pasta is generously thick, and the sauce coats it perfectly. It just says 'eat me'.
Strozzapreti al Ragù di Castrato
Generous portion, the aroma is great. The pasta is very al dente, definitely not homemade, but high-quality. The ragù is dense, well-cooked, and feels like a real craft sauce. The pasta has a nice bite. The level is really high: a very honest, satisfying dish.
Tagliata di Manzo con Patate al Forno
The steak is a medium-cooked tenderloin, topped with coarse salt and rosemary. The hot stone plate keeps it warm perfectly. The meat is outstanding — among the best we've ever tried on this channel. The potatoes are basic but soft and have some garlic bits. The coarse salt crystals give a nice crunch. The meat really wins everything. Next time I'd come just for the steak.
