Filippino
Having celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2010, Filippino’s is a mainstay of Lipari’s culinary scene, its menu filled with traditional dishes named in Sicilian dialect such as maccarruna i casa alla Filippino (pasta with tomatoes, courgettes, basil, mint, mozzarella and ricotta) and close to 20 delectable desserts. There are separate menus for olive oil, bottled water, grappas (120) and, more conventionally, wine.

Le Macine
This Slow Food-awarded restaurant is located outside Lipari just as you enter Pianoconte. Creative Aeolian cooking includes fish in ghiotta sauce: a blend of olive oil, capers, tomatoes, garlic and basil. Lobster-filled ravioli or the fresh grilled swordfish are great too. The presentation is nicely low-key, but the portions could be bigger.

Kasbah
Choose the environment that suits you best: the sleek contemporary white banquettes in the interior dining room or the vine-covered, candlelit garden out back. The food is superb, including delicious pizzas and delicacies such as agnello stracotto in umido alla siciliana (stewed lamb with almonds and dates).

La Nassa
Genuine Aeolian cuisine is served in this family-run trattoria away from the main drag. Favourites include fish such as cernia, sarago and dentice, or try the Aeolian sausages, which are a house speciality.

E Pulera
Filippino’s sister restaurant just west of the centre has a serene garden setting and equally exquisite food. Despite the upmarket ambience, the menu includes some surprisingly affordable choices.
