Restaurant Da Gelsomina
Savor the island's finest cuisine at a special price.
Ask an islander to give you the name of a restaurant in which to try Capri's traditional cuisine, and they're more than likely to answer, "Da Gelsomina".
One of the most famous eateries on the whole island, this is where the locals come to savor traditional island specialties, prepared with the same care as generations ago.
Sample ravioli capresi, coniglio alla cacciatora, pollo al mattone and other island delicacies, made with seasonal ingredients in our own kitchen.
At Da Gelsomina, lunch and dinner are served on a sweeping terrace with a magnificent view of the sea and the countryside surrounding Anacapri and, in the distance, Mount Vesuvius and the neighboring island of Ischia. During the day, the view is bright under the Mediterranean sun, and the colors soften and become tinged with gold come sunset.
