La Casa di Michele

Situated just a few metres from the main square of old Maratea, this tavern is a historic and typical restaurant with a kitchen area that dates from the 18C and a decor featuring Vietri ceramics. The chef delights in introducing guests to local recipes, such as the “polpo murato” (stewed octopus), one of the house specialities. The wine list boasts around 400 labels, with a particular focus on France and small-scale producers from Italy and further afield. Small groups (a maximum of 6 people) can choose to dine in the wine cellar surrounded by old bottles, many of which are collector’s items.
