Address
Via Arco Naturale - Capri

Le Grottelle is situated just a few steps away from the Natural Arch, a great block of rock fashioned by centuries of erosion into a gigantic monolithic archway.

Caves with a view

As its name suggests, part of Le Grottelle, including the kitchen, has been built within cave-like hollows in the rock face.
Traditional island treats are served on the terrace which enjoys sweeping views across the sea to the Amalfi Coast, Campanella point, the Galli islands and, on particularly clear days, as far as Salerno and the Calabrian mountains.

Pit-stop Pizzolungo

Le Grottelle provides the perfect venue in which to enjoy a well earned gastronomic reward at the end of the breathtakingly beautiful coastal walk which commences at Tragara Point and the Faraglioni and terminates with a 120 step climb to reach the Natural Arch.

Le Grottelle is the ideal place in which to have lunch after completing Capri's panoramic Pizzolungo walk

Dinner here deserves. No direct access by car, but a 15-minute walk to eat on this beautiful terrace sheltered from trees. An uncomplicated but tasty table, where tourists and locals mix. Note that at first, the Service was not very cordial ... but relaxed little by little (is it because our bill was getting longer or because my wife speaks perfectly Italian?) to the point of almost hugging us when we left.

Welcoming more than unpleasant, the waiter gave us less than 3 minutes to choose and it was very pressing or even oppressive! As for the dishes, a mozza tomato has 18€ not great in quality as in quantity. A rib (0,5cm thick) far too cooked, while requested bleeding, and a lot of fat (1/3 of the piece). Not to mention the Cover at 5€ per person for such a Service! In short, a very salty addition, without the view which is very beautiful, I would not have put a star! Pass your way

The food in Italy is crazy and this place honors that, I ordered a seafood paste and it was spectacular! The waiter who touched us was super X, I thought he was moody and already, but I saw him smiling and otherwise attending to the next table, so it wasn't moody... He's just one of those waiters who serve you according to the watch you're wearing (I guess I should have taken out the Rolex that night 😂) The owners very friendly, it is nice to see what in Italy you are always greeted by the owners of the place. Finally we ordered an ice cream that was amazing, the richest I have ever eaten. The prices are according to how delicious everything was. About 50-70 euros per person.

A pleasant walk starting off from the Piazzetta: pass through the arch on Via Longano, and continue along Via Matermania to Via Arco Naturale.
