For more than a century, the Aurora restaurant and pizzeria, owned by the D'Alessio family, has been serving visitors to Capri with the finest food and wine.

Traditional treats with a pinch of creativity

The restaurant, on the fashionable Via Fuorlovado, has gained wide spread international acclaim for its excellent Mediterranean cuisine and for its traditional Neapolitan and Caprese specialties to which Chef Franco Aversa adds that sprinkling of culinary innovation, which places the Aurora among the most exclusive restaurants on the island.

Order as starter the famous pizza all'acqua, an original old recipe of pizza, served with mozzarella and red peppers.

Capri's wine wizard

The Aurora restaurant was among the very first establishments to introduce a selection of quality wines to Capri and over the years has continued to seek out the very best Italian and International wines.

This passion for fine wines and the ever-expanding wine cellar of the Aurora has led to the opening of the centrally located Vino , a fabulous wine bar with an impressive exposition of wines, which, from day one, has proved to be extremely popular with locals and visitors to the island alike.

Average food with terrible service

Very average food but with terrible service. Pizzas were ok but where we had a lot better in Italy and specifically Sorrento. “Chicken in lemon sauce” was tasty but luke warm by the time it arrived. Service on all counts was terrible - my wife’s main course arrived just before we had all finished ours and that was after chasing 4 times. When it did come there was no apology or recognition for how late it was and then it was barely warm. Lead Waiters including what appeared to be the head waiter /Maitre de were abrupt, uninterested and rushed us to take the order only for the speed of order taking not to match the speed of their service. We had to ask 5 times for the bill and it still didn’t arrive so I went to the desk to ask (again) to pay. Generally staff acted like they were doing you a favour to have you there. A shame but a lot better options available.

Disappointment

We were extremely disappointed with our experience at this restaurant. I ordered the lobster pasta, which was by far the worst I’ve ever had – the lobster was tough and rubbery, and the pasta was severely undercooked and hard. The staff was unpleasant and uninterested. Despite having a reservation, we were seated right next to the bathroom – completely disrespectful. The prices are outrageously high for such low-quality food. The only decent thing we had was the Caesar salad – everything else was terrible. I would not return and definitely do not recommend it.

Capri è così

Capri è così . Come tutte le località “social “ è frequentata da VIP ha le sue contraddizioni. Tempistiche di ore per raggiungere la Piazzetta e prezzi non proprio in linea con i servizi offerti. Detto ciò noi abbiamo pranzato bene , servizio ottimo e prezzi in linea con il contesto. Unica nota dolente alcuni ragazzi troppo rumorosi, ma come spesso accade in questi contesti pecunia non olet.

Cibo sotto alle aspettative, ma servizio pessimo , tavoli attaccati, i camerieri che per passare hanno sempre sbattuto sul nostro tavolo, Un continuo… consiglio di mettere i Clienti al centro.. Inutile farsi i SELFIE con le celebrità se poi si offre un servizio del genere.
