Luca and Cecilia Castiglione are your hosts at this lively restaurant, well known for its authentic Southern Italian cuisine.
An intimate setting with in and outdoor options, at the foot of Chapmans Peak with spectacular sea and mountain views.
***
Luca was born and trained in Napoli and the pizzas are unmistakably evocative of the region.
The menu is a feast of fresh seafood choices but there is also rosemary, oil and garlic infused rib-eye steak, Sirloin Tagliata or pasta with traditional Neapolitan beef stew. Good vegan choices such as aubergine and parmesan which is stunning, and Ricciola in Rosso.
The fish could not be fresher and is sometimes caught by Luca. When available a whole Silver can be shared at the table, the tartare is stunning with avo puree, tomato confit topped with deep fried greens or scaloppina di tonno is superb.
Lunch in the glassed contemporary restaurant or under the trees and there is a jungle gym for youngsters.
At night, arrive in time for sunset over the sea and cocktails. Relax as the place becomes magical with the tree fairy lights coming on.
End your meal with a delicious shot of Limoncello liquer!
