Capri High-End Restaurants

• Ristorante La Capannina Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-0732 Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation   : "The warm, professional welcome of the De Angelis family, which has owned the restaurant since 1951, is one of La Capannina's charms; another is the spot-on local cuisine, which includes specialties like ricotta-stuffed eggplant and ravioli Caprese."

• • Frommer's Highly Recommended: "This restaurant has drawn a host of glamorous people, but they come for its lack of pretentiousness."

• • Fodor's Review   : "For decades one of Capri's most celebrity-haunted restaurants..."

• da Paolino Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-6102 Google Map
  • Condé Nast Traveller Selection: "Set in a beautiful lemon grove, the specials include macaroni with courgette flowers."

• da Gemma   Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-0461 Google Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation   : "[Graham Greene's] photo is on the wall, along with those of dozens of other celebrities who still roll up for the thick-crust pies, seafood pasta, delicious fried platters, and antipasto bar."

• • Frommer's Recommended: "The cuisine includes authentic versions of Caprese favorites, with an emphasis on fish, as well as more modern dishes such as pizzas."

• • New York Times Pick: "The restaurant’s namesake, Gemma, died in 1984 (and Greene took part in the funeral procession), but her family still runs the restaurant, which remains popular.

• Ristorante Aurora Pizza, Phone: 39-081-837-0181 Google Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation   : "TThe owners, the D'Alessio family, greet major and minor celebrities like old friends, leaving nonentities like us to the waiters, but that's par for the course on Capri, and the service is, in fact, extremely professional."

• • Fodor's Review   : "If you want to eat out and be seen, reserve one of the tables outside on one of Capri's most chic thoroughfares; otherwise go for extra privacy and ambience within."

• Ai Faraglioni Seafood, Phone: 39-081-837-0320 Google Map
  • Frommer's Recommended: "Stylish and appealing and occupying a stone-sided building at least 150 years old, it has a kitchen that turns out well-prepared European specialties, usually based on seafood from the surrounding waters."

• • Fodor's Review   : "With natural shade provided by a 150-year-old wisteria plant, this is a popular, fairly stylish restaurant, which is both centrally located and yet almost immersed in Mediterranean greenery."

Capri Moderate Restaurants

• La Rondinella Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-1223 Google Map
  • Frommer's Recommended: "Despite the competition from the more formal restaurants in some of Anacapri's hotels, this is the most appealing place, thanks to the likable staff, its garden view, and a location adjacent to the Santa Sophia church."

• • Fodor's Review   : "This is an airy ristorante-pizzeria looking onto the main pedestrianized street of Anacapri."

• Da Tonino Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-6718 Google Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation : "It's a little out of the way, just off the path that leads to the Arco Naturale, but this place is well worth scouting out for its well-priced gourmet spin on the cuisine of the Bay of Naples."

• La Savardina Italian, Phone: 39-081-837-6300 Google Map
  • Concierge.com Recommendation   : "This rustic idyll is one of the few restaurants on Capri to champion the rural, land-based cuisine that so many islanders subsisted on in the days when fish was a rare and expensive treat."

• CasaNova Seafood, Phone: 39-081-837-7642 Google Map
  • Frommer's Highly Recommended: "Run by the D'Alessio family and only a short walk from Piazza Umberto I, this is one of the finest dining rooms on Capri."
