The story
Gibas sits along the Strada Panoramica Adriatica in Pesaro, perched within the Parco San Bartolo nature reserve. The restaurant’s philosophy is summed up in three words: sea, land, innovation. Here, technique and creativity are wrapped in a striking view, offering a setting that is both elegant and tranquil.
The kitchen, led by the Chef and his brigade, focuses on the finest raw ingredients, treated with respect and an eye for seasonality. The menu moves from the gifts of the Adriatic to the fruits of the surrounding hills, all interpreted with a modern, sophisticated touch. “Every dish is an emotion,” the restaurant says — the result of careful study and a commitment to flavour without sacrificing detail.
The à la carte menu is thorough. It opens with crudités including oysters from Cadoret and a selection of carpacci. Antipasti feature alici del Cantabrico with rocket and pink grapefruit, or monkfish in a “budello” with seasonal vegetables. Among the primi, spaghetti “Filotea” with clams and sea urchin leans decisively into the seafood strength of the kitchen. Secondi range from a mixed fry of paranza to Adriatic catch grilled or baked; there are also meat options like a Marchigiana beef tagliata and a vegan-friendly seitan. The tasting menu, served to the whole table, offers a curated four-course journey, including a dessert named “La merenda dello Chef”.
The wine cellar is equally considered, with more than 200 labels that explore local passion for territory alongside broader Italian and international selections.
Gibas has earned a place in the Michelin guide as a Recommended restaurant, a recognition that matches the careful execution seen across every course. The dining experience is built around an elegant harmony of excellent cooking and a panoramic backdrop — a place where sea, sky, and land meet on the plate.
Whether for dinner, a private event, or a gift card experience, Gibas delivers a refined take on Italian cuisine rooted in the Adriatic coast.
