Hotel Il Ciliegio

This charming restaurant in the Salerno hinterland is the creation of a passionate duo: Salvatore in the kitchen and Federica in the dining room.

The area around Montoro, famous for its cipolla ramata (copper onion), is now also home to a gourmet restaurant thanks to young chef Francesco Cerrato, whose cuisine is inspired by locally sourced ingredients from this inland region as well as fish and seafood from the coast. The menu also features creative, carefully prepared dishes served by the attentive young staff. Minimalist-style ambience.

Recently re-opened under new management, this charming restaurant winds its way from room to room until you finally arrive at the palazzo’s old cellars, the jewel in its crown. The cuisine here has quickly made a name for itself, focusing on strong links with regional traditions and showcasing local favourites on a menu full of tempting options, including salumi, local vegetables, pasta dishes, grilled meat options and typical local ingredients such as San Marzano tomatoes. The delicious cuisine pays tribute to the fine culinary traditions of Campania.

In a remote location in the Sannio, this authentic inn offers fine views from its well-kept dining room-cum-veranda and outdoor terrace. The owner-chef creates dishes with a regional flavour using produce from his own garden, without straying too far from local traditions.
