Fish is our specialty, which is always of the freshest quality, raw to allow you to sample the thousand tastes of the sea, traditionally grilled or in really tasty soup, a house specialty. But the recipe that made the hotel and our restaurant renowned over Italy is Spaghetti with Zucchini, with season vegetables fried in olive oil, flavored with basil and parmesan, all mixed with Caciocavallo: really delicious!

Our cellar is as good as our kitchen and offers DOC wines from the Sorrento Peninsula including the whites Capri, Costa d'Amalfi and Penisola Sorrentina, which is more appreciated and renowned in its red and natural sparkling version and other important wines from Campania: the DOCG Fiano and Greco, the DOC Falanghina and DOC Aglianico.
