The place is incredibly romantic and classy. A must if you visit the Amalfi coast. Food was amazing and professionally served. We shared three starters which were one more amazing of the other. Fresh produce and incredibly well plated. The first course, we took risotto and the filled pasta. I mean, one of the best pastas and I can easily say the best risotto I've ever had. Entrée was tuna steak and it was A+ grade. Wine pairing is a must! Don't choose by yourself. Ask the staff! They know what they are doing when they will suggest the wine pairing. Will be back soon to try the meat as well.

This restaurant gave us such a wonderful food experience wow. Me and husband came and tried the cod, octopus, and amberjack. We finished our meal with the pistachio dessert. The fish plates were incredible, so fresh, flaky, perfectly seasoned, and so well priced for the quality. Some of the best fish we had on amalfi coast. The dessert was just as good, we couldn’t get enough. The service was amazing, we met Armando who was wonderful. The interior is also stunning. Overall I would highly recommend this to everyone!

We ordered the entire tasting menu with matching wine package. - Great service - high quality local food and wine - Romantic atmosphere - Definitely worth visiting, even if you’re staying somewhere else on the Amalfi Coast - we were however not able to add tip/service on the bill so keep in mind that you need to bring cash

One of the best restaurants you can find in the amalfi coast region. Located in a small town with nearby free parking. The chef and the kitchen are like magicians, reinventing traditional taste into a contemporary story. The staff is very very attentive to any detail. We tried almost all michelin stars restaurant in the region and Arca (despite not yet having the star) it deserves a star. The price of the tasting menu is a gift to the customer, as quality and execution is way above that price. Well done to the team, I can forsee a very bright future for such a team. Well done!
