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.

Der Hype ist nicht nachvollziehbar

Das Essen war lecker, aber leider waren die Kellner unfreundlich. So wie in den meisten Restaurants in Capri wird man einfach abgefertigt. Als Resümee der Hype um dieses Restaurant ist für uns nicht nachvollziehbar. Wir hatten einen leckeren Abend aber Preis- Leistung passt am Ende nicht. Man zahlt für eine Pizza die mehr einem Flammkuchen gleicht 35 Euro. Wir haben uns Vor- und Hauptspeise geteilt, zwei Dessert und Getränke 180 Euro… Keine Empfehlung!!!

Non eravamo convinte di provare questo posto ma siamo rimaste veramente soddisfatte dei piatti! Qualità molto alta! Gamberoni eccezionali! Il tavolo che ci han dato non era dei migliori, vicino alla cucina! E non era così affollato! Alla fine ti offrono dei dolcetti della casa così finisci il vino in compagnia! Carina l’idea! Adesso torniamo per provare la pizza!!!

The ambiance and food are great! Nevertheless, the booking process to get a table is a bit messy… it seems to be based on who you know or are. My recommendation is to ask your hotel to do it for you. Price is quite high but this is a common thing across all capri.

Excellent food, very expensive, terrible service

It was recommended to us by the tour guide for a quick lunch that serves traditional Neapolitan and capris dishes especially the 100 years original pizzallacqua …. So we tried it That original pizza was just a simple very thin crust like a cracker with cheese on top and chili flakes hence the name “White Pizza”. It was good but nothing special or wow. Not sufficient for lunch for one person. For 30 euros …. It is ridiculous But, the surprise dish we ordered was the “Pappardelle with Cacio, Black pepper and black truffle” …. Basically it is the pasta cacio e peppe with fresh black truffle and sufficient shaving of the truffle, not just sprinkles. It is beyond amazing …. A perfect dish of its kind…. 65 euros, but worth it The aparol spritz drink for 25 euros was rip-off too The service so terrible …. Unfriendly waiters. Inattentive. Unhelpful. 15% service charge is added to the bill…. It should be zero. And tips should be according to the level of service, not charging for no service. If it wasn’t for the pasta, I would say no to this place. 5 for food. 3 for ambience. 1 for service
