This attractive, contemporary-style bistro is the “low-cost” sibling of the Pescheria restaurant situated in a more upmarket location on Salerno’s seafront. Run by the same management, the bistro aims to serve simpler dishes at more modest prices yet with the same focus on freshness and attention to detail evident in its sister-restaurant. As a result, you’ll find options such as oily fish and local white prawns on the menu rather than oysters and caviar. Don’t miss the squid soup with nduja sausage, potato mousse and crispy bread.

Pescheria

The name of this restaurant between the historic centre and the seafront refers to the main item on its menu, which is dedicated almost exclusively to fish (fresh and not farmed). Fish and shellfish are displayed in a glass cabinet and aquarium respectively, both of which are situated to the rear of the long, narrow dining room near the open-view kitchen. Classic fish dishes full of flavour (served raw, baked, cooked in salt, in water or grilled) are to the fore here.

Situated in the picturesque historic centre of Salerno, this is one of the city’s best restaurants.

The cuisine is Mediterranean and contemporary, with a selection of light and creative meat, fish and vegetable dishes featuring on the menu.

Casa Rispoli

Modern Cuisine

€€

Overlooking a piazza surrounded by picturesque arcades in the historic centre (a walk around this district is highly recommended), this restaurant run by the Rispoli family continues to uphold its fine-dining traditions. Although a few meat dishes feature on the menu, it is its fish options (mainly traditional, such as tuna with mussels and escabeche-style aubergine) and occasionally imaginative desserts, such as the cheesecake with toffee and raspberry, that are the main attraction here.
