La Fontelina

Terrible. Almost the entire menu has frozen and blast-chilled ingredients. Even an eggplant parmigiana is blast-chilled with a blast chiller. Tourist trap. Shameful. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Business linked to beach service with cover charge. Limiting access for even fotos

Very disappointing experience at La Fontelina While planning our trip to Capri, I tried to make a reservation for the La Fontelina beach club, but it was already fully booked. The restaurant staff themselves suggested that we make a reservation for lunch instead, at 3:00 PM. We made the reservation, provided a credit card as a guarantee of attendance, and, as requested, reconfirmed the reservation 24 hours in advance. When we arrived, the manager directed us to a small table for three people located at the back of the restaurant, directly under the sun and in an area with absolutely no breeze. Considering the intense heat in Italy that day, the location of the table was extremely uncomfortable. My husband politely asked the manager if another table might be available, and he asked us to wait. My daughter and I stood there waiting.

After this entire situation, the manager eventually seated us at a much better table. I want to be fair and acknowledge that the manager did make an effort to resolve the situation. Unfortunately, however, the receptionist’s extremely inappropriate behavior had already left a very negative im

200.00 minimum spend per person for uncomfortable wooden chairs on stones, and since we are not regulars, they seat you in the back where it is hot and there is no view. The restaurant has a nice view but the food is not wow, however the prices are like the rest
