The story
A fish shop by day, a lunch-only restaurant that embodies Capri’s relaxed seaside charm. As Gambero Rosso puts it, this is a place that “serves fresh local seafood with traditional Caprese recipes right by the port — a perfect welcome or farewell to the island.” The setup is casual and waterfront, leaning into the island’s trattoria spirit without pretension.
The kitchen leans into the day’s catch with dishes like *Paccheri al ragù di totani e mandorle tostate*, a standout pasta that marries squid ragù with toasted almonds. Another notable plate is the *Rana Pescatrice con Vellutata di Patate al Limone e Sauté di Olive, Pomodorini e Capperi* — monkfish in a lemon potato velouté, finished with a punchy olive-tomato-caper sauté. Both reflect the restaurant’s ability to turn simple, local ingredients into something memorable.
