Ristorante Da Mariano

This is hands down not only the best restaurant on the island of Procida, but one of the top places I've ever eaten in all of Italy. Mariano's talents are secretly hidden on this remote island in the Tyrrehenian Sea. The food is absolutely incredible, and located in a rather unusual place on the island. Far from the center of the village, the restaurant is one of the tiniest places I've ever dined at. Right in front of the marina, it is across the island from the epicenter of everything. Far from noise and traffic, the stillness of this side of the island provides the guest with peace and quiet while they sip their house wine and dine al fresco in the warm summer eve. The shrimp ravioli is something to marvel and possibly have seconds. I was tempted to order more - no joke. From the appetizers to the desserts, you will not be dissatisfied. This is literally some of the best food in all of Italy and you might consider going to the island just for this reason. The staff is beyond friendly and loved getting to know Mariano and his lovely wife. Would recommend this as one of the best places I've dined, and would love to go again in the future!

The best place in the island, great staff, awesome food, the reservation is nesessery

Good food but portions are ridiculously small - especially on the squid I ordered (2 tiny pieces for 20 EUR). Tasty baba al rum. Quick service.

I can highly recommend this restaurant with really fresh sea food! Service is great.

Could not offer a table for a single person during the whole evening. I guess they only want larger groups to make more money. Edit after owner's reaction: The first sentence is a fact. The second sentence is indeed an opinion, properly introduced by "I guess". Now, I appreciate the reaction and increased the rating to 3 stars. But this does not change the fact that I arrived at your restaurant by 20:30, to be clear, without booking. But nowhere it's mentioned that the restaurant is booking/reservation only. All tables were empty by then and despite I was willing to wait the only answer was "no". I understand that things can be busy in summer but please update your description to "booking only" or "strongly advised".

We had a really nice time in this restaurant, the staff is nice and the food was delicious !!!

Best restaurant on the island. House wine was also pretty good!

Lovely spot in the Harbour (Chiaionella) with great food and staff. I enjoyed the bluefish with onions—it was amazing, despite waiting 15 minutes after the rest of my party was served.

Small family run restaurant. Nice seating overlooking the harbour, good homemade food. Fish with lemons was delicious! Home made pistachio semifredo too ;)
