Address
Via Sella Orta, 39/e - Capri

In the heart of Capri on a street packed with tourists and islanders there's a somewhat unremarkable entrance that might easily be missed by those passing by. It's hard to believe that beyond this unassuming exterior lies the island's best-known and most-loved nightclub - a favorite hangout of pop stars, politicians, high-flying managers, television hosts, philosophers, top models, and even royals.

The most famous nightclub on Capri

For a few years now, the "official voice" of Anema e Core has been Gianluigi Lembo, son of the unforgettable Guido, the club's founder and undisputed emperor of the Capri night scene until his untimely death in 2022.

Following in the footsteps of his father, Gianluigi Lembo and his band enchant the island from midnight until the break of day with the sound of Neapolitan music, transforming uptight politicians and persuading even the most inhibited visitors to let loose and dance.

"Anema e core" in local dialect means heart and soul, and guests at this club have their heart and soul lifted by the lighthearted music, dancing, and easy smiles of the staff and visitors.

There is no dress code or bouncer at the door, so anyone who wants to spend an evening in the company of Gianluigi and his band can have the time of their life. For over 20 years, locals, tourists, and international stars have been mixing it up on the same dance floor. The music is spontaneous and fun, and that's the key to the success of this traditional "taverna" that has become a local landmark over the years.

Order from a large selection of drinks and cocktails, or select a bottle of bubbly or fine wine from the cellar.

Cute but expensive.

The place is very cute, well-kept, and outdoors with a beautiful view. The shuttle service they offer is very convenient because the place is located in a hard-to-reach spot. Prices are a bit high for the quality of the food offered. The cold cuts in the appetizer seemed a bit industrial to us (it was nothing local or homemade). The meat is good and the grill they bring to the table is very spectacular. The location is like a farmhouse, but the food is not. The bill is too steep.

They are unprofessional. They make you wait in line until 2 in the morning when the place closes at 4 just to charge you €80 for admission. Then they tell you that the place is full since they only let in acquaintances and people they think are going to spend a fortune. Rude and abusive.

Very negative behavior.

About a month before the event, we had contacted the establishment via email to book a table for five girls. We were told that no reservation was necessary and that, by showing up around 1:30 AM, we would be able to enter without problems. The night of the event we showed up early, around midnight, to ask for further information. A rather rude girl at the entrance explained to us that it would be better to wait until 1:00 AM because the tables had to enter first, then those with reservations, and subsequently the lists. I then tried to talk to the girl, explaining that we had tried to book well in advance but that we had been told it was not necessary. Unfortunately, the response received was unfriendly and perceived as arrogant, without providing any concrete solution. We waited until 1:45 AM, asking several times for information about the possibility of entering, always receiving only the invitation to wait. Feeling ignored and without any certain indication, we decided to leave the club and spend the evening elsewhere. Around 3:00 AM we stopped by again to ask what time the evening would end. The first girl together with the bouncer continued to ignore us, sending forward another girl who replied that it would end around 3:45 AM. We then asked if it was still possible to enter and what the entrance fee was. We were quoted an amount that seemed disproportionate to us compared to the approximately 45 minutes remaining in the evening. What left us most disappointed was not the failure to enter, but the feeling of not having been considered with the due attention and courtesy. We were five girls who simply wanted to celebrate a bachelorette party in peace. We are all adults, professionals, and respectful people, and we would have appreciated more clarity and respect in the handling of the situation. We are reporting what happened so that you may evaluate the staff's behavior and improve the welcome provided to your customers. Best regards.
