Mediterranean Cuisine, Italian Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€€

Situated just outside Amalfi with the elegant Mediterranean landscapes of the Amalfi Coast as a backdrop, this fine-dining restaurant at the beautiful Santa Caterina hotel is perched above the sea and boasts stunning views and a tranquil ambience. Talented chef “Peppe” Stanzione from Salerno is at the helm here, having gained experience in renowned Michelin-starred restaurants in places as far afield as California, Australia, China and Thailand. While his passion for Asia is obvious in some dishes, it is the flavours and recipes of Campania that are to the fore, combined with other more exotic

La Caravella dal 1959

Campanian, Mediterranean Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

La Caravella’s history is intricately linked to that of gastronomic tourism on the Amalfi Coast, so much so that it’s impossible to mention all the famous personalities who have dined here and fallen in love with the Dipino family’s cuisine. The food is proudly inspired by local and family traditions, while at the same time constantly seeking to reinterpret these traditions and create new imaginative recipes. Examples include pears cooked in Aglianico wine served with raw shrimps and cow’s ricotta cheese, and raw fish and seafood options accompanied by a careful selection of seasonal vegetable

€€€€

All five senses will be satisfied by a visit to the gourmet restaurant of the Hotel Residence. Housed in a splendid 18C palazzo just a few metres from the famous cathedral, the restaurant boasts an interior design which combines modern and functional features with the building’s classic look, using a colour scheme which is typical of the Amalfi Coast. Although the cuisine focuses mainly on Mediterranean fish and seafood, the menu also features a few meat specialities.

Il Refettorio

Mediterranean Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

Housed within the Monastero Santa Rosa, one of the most original and iconic hotels on the Amalfi Coast (the monastery was founded in the 17C and some of its original features can still be seen), this restaurant occupies a spectacular terrace in a magical, tranquil setting with views that extend from the garden to the swimming pool and right out to sea. The cuisine comes courtesy of Alfonso Crescenzo, whose slogan “Nothing is more complex than simple cuisine” lies behind his tasteful reinterpretations of Campania’s traditional dishes, which are natural, full of generous flavours and beautifully

Alici

Campanian, Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€€

Borgo Santandrea is a luxurious hotel along the Amalfi Coast, just outside Conca dei Marini, and Alici is its fineding, both symbols of Italian beauty. Beyond an interior dining room with vintage-style furniture, dinners always take place on the magnificent terrace with its blue and azure majolica floor, reverberating the splendour of the sky and sea. Chef Crescenzo Scotti clearly loves pleasant places: we remember him previously in Ravello and before that - with a star - on the island of Vulcano. Here he returns with skill and expertise to his favourite territory, that is, the flavours of the

Il Flauto di Pan

€€€€

It would be no exaggeration to say that this restaurant (part of the Villa Cimbrone hotel) is situated in one of the most romantic and exclusive spots in Italy, surrounded by luxuriant Mediterranean vegetation and with stunning views of the Gulf of Salerno. Once at the restaurant, you make your way to the terrace, where views of the sea with the Cilento mountains in the distance are framed by a beautiful wisteria. The chef from Campania offers guests a superb selection of local produce, prepared in traditional and reinterpreted dishes that are full of the intense and explosive flavours of this

Rossellinis

Mediterranean Cuisine, Contemporary · ★ Michelin

€€€€

The famous fine-dining restaurant at the beautiful Palazzo Avino hotel features classic, elegant dining rooms and a stunning terrace boasting views of one of the most spectacular stretches of the Amalfi Coast. Dinner begins with a flute of champagne served in the fabulous garden below the terrace (offering the same magical views as far as Minori and beyond), accompanied by delicious and imaginative finger food served on superb ceramic tableware. Your experience then continues with fine regional cuisine created by chef Gianni Vanacore, which is full of light and balanced flavours. Skilful somme

Marina Grande

€€€

Situated directly on the beach, this pleasant restaurant with a contemporary decor boasts splendid sea views and a small private beach club. Although the setting obviously has a tourist feel, the traditional cuisine served here is full of flavour. We particularly recommend the “gamberi in carrozza” (shrimp) with fior di latte and a variation on puttanesca sauce.
