Address
With its breathtaking terrace overlooking the turquoise waters off Capri and chic blue-and-white interiors inspired by the sensational views, Il Riccio in Anacapri has been one of the island's most exclusive dining spots since 2013. Its spectacular location just meters from the Blue Grotto, cosmopolitan island style, and unparalleled cuisine has positioned this waterfront restaurant as the leader in the island's dining scene.
Il Riccio is one of the restaurants managed by the luxury Capri Palace Hotel, but it is open to all diners...if, however, you are lucky enough to book in advance and nab a table in its exclusive thatched-roof dining room. Relax over specialties like the famous Plateau Royal, a sumptuous dish featuring fresh Mediterranean fish and seafood, including sea urchins and oysters.
No meal at Il Riccio is complete without a foray into their iconic dessert room, decorated with artisan majolica tiles that set off an endless array of sweet island treats that include many of the traditional pastries and desserts from Naples and the rest of Italy: babà al rum, torta caprese, tarts, sfogliatelle, delizia al limone, and more. It's a true paradise for lovers of luscious desserts.
Sitting on a clifftop directly above the water, Il Riccio took over the spot from the landmark Add’o Riccio Restaurant, a beloved spot for years in Anacapri. Today, guests here enjoy the same unforgettable culinary experience and warmly informal atmosphere.
