Italy is known for excellent food, and the cuisine in Ravello does not disappoint.
2015-12-28When booking luxury villas in Italy, you can expect only the best. Yet while areas like the Amalfi Coast are certainly not light on attractions, if you’re unfamiliar with the area, you may be wondering where to find suitably exquisite dining in the region. For those with luxury rentals in the Ravello area, you won’t want to miss the opportunity to sample a sumptuous favorite of the Amalfi Coast at the quaint, yet classic restaurant known as Figli di Papa.
Ranked among the best eateries in Amalfi, Ristorante Figli di Papa is steeped in local culinary tradition. The restaurant was built as part of a palace near the end of the 12th century, but was lost for years before being rejuvenated by two brothers who dedicated this eatery, the name of which translates to "Father's sons," to their dad.
Inside, you can sit in one of three well-appointed halls or on a terrace adorned with a trellis. This area also features a full-service bar serving local wines and other popular libations.
The menu boasts a mix of classic dishes, and unique entrees. From authentic gnocchi in marinara to a savory crespolini di pesce in a besciamella sauce, the restaurant has something for everyone. Chefs also strike a good balance on the menu, meaning whether you’re a vegetarian or meat-lover, there will be plenty of food to go around.
