This is a great place to impress someone – not so much for the food, which is decent enough, but for the dramatic setting: its two dining areas are set in a cave and on a hillside terrace with sea views. Dishes are rustic, from homemade fusilli pasta with shrimps and courgettes to rabbit with onions, garlic and rosemary.
