Restaurants in Procida

  1. A

    Ristorante Scarabeo

    Behind a veritable jungle of lemon trees lies the venerable kitchen of Signora Battinelli. With husband Francesco, she whips up classics like fritelle di basilico (fried patties of bread, egg, Parmesan and basil) and home-made aubergine-and-­ provola ravioli. They breed their own rabbits, make their own falanghina (a light, fruit-forward white wine) and it’s all yours to devour under a pergola of bulbous lemons.

    La Conchiglia

    Topaz waves at your feet, pastel Corricella in the distance – this is what you come to Procida for. Up against the views, the food holds its own with dishes such as spaghetti alla povera (spaghetti with peperoncino, green peppers, cherry tomatoes and anchovies). To get here, take the steep steps down from Via Pizzaco or book a boat from Corricella.

    Graziella

    Along this unpretentious marina, with its old fishing boats, piles of fishing nets and sleek, lazy cats, any restaurant will provide you with a memorable dining experience. Choices include sandwiches and burgers, spicy penne alla siciliana (pasta with a spicy tomato and chilli sauce) and juicy grilled chicken with sweet-chilli sauce.

    Fammivento

    Get things going with the alici ripiene (stuffed anchovies), then try the fusilli carciofi e calamari (pasta with artichokes and calamari). For a splurge, go for the zuppa di crostaci e moluschi (crustacean and mollusc soup). It ain't the house speciality for nada.

    Da Giorgio

    These folks try hard to please with a reasonable menu, welcoming window boxes and inexpensive beer. The menu holds few surprises, but the ingredients are fresh, zesty and flavourful in classics like gnocchi alla sorrentina (gnocchi baked in ­tomato sauce with mozzarella).

    Gorgona

    Along unpretentious Marina Corricella, with its old fishing boats, piles of fishing nets and sleek, lazy cats, any restaurant will provide you with a memorable experience. That said, this place peddles particularly fine smoked-seafood dishes, including swordfish and tuna steaks.

    Ristorante L'Approdo

    Preened navy cadets flock here for home-style cooking. Dive into a spicy bowl of penne alla siciliana or slurp your way through the zuppa di pesce (fish stew). When you're done, sit back and watch the boats dock.

    Bar Cavaliere

    Procida's prime pastry peddler will leave you a drooling mess. All the rage is the lingua di bue (ox tongue), flaky pastry shaped like a tongue and filled with crema pasticcera (custard).
