Seating in the garden of a late summer night with delicious food in your plate.... What a nice , rustic place. The garden setting is sweet and the service friendly. Pasta with seafood is very tasty. Desserts could be improved. Recommend

Small, but as precious as tasty, the little pub in the terrific (see the church) Palinuro centrale square has wide ranges of pizzas and "panuozzo" (long pizza bread filled with whatever you want), huge beer collection and cheap prices. Must go

Med Farine Club

Reviewed By Marco C - Naples, Italy

Even in the manager has changed you can always taste the same pizza of the past and first year of this new formula restaurant.
Why new formula?
Because the staff isn't that metronomics (cups? They're over; cutlery? Must rinse).
But the taste and the fun hasn't turned out.

La Pergola 1977

Reviewed By NataliyaL575 - Moscow, Russia

We had meals there many times and every time we enjoyed them very much. We tried also other restaurants in Palinuro, but this is definitely the best. Their cooks maintained old traditions in cooking. They have the best mussels and salad Palinurese. Also the service is efficient. Giuseppe (the host) is very friendly. Sometimes on Fridays it is better to make reservation in advance. Very nice place. We recommend it to everybody. We want to return there.

Pizzeria degli Amici dal 1973

Reviewed By annalinda87 - Milan, Italy

Sometimes, when I'm just going around for a walk, I stop thinking at this pizza: "ah, Pizzeria degli Amici's pizza!" and my brother repeats after me like an echo. It's jst that this pizza I'm pretty sure is the best pizza I've ever tried, and I tried a lot of pizzas, believe me, from real pizza Margherita ate in Napoli at Egiptian pizza easily findind in Milan. The pasta was soft with crispy edges, the olive oil was really good, like the tomatoes, and basil, oh, basil!
Maybe is a little bit small, but is economic, so it's a good deal.

Reviewed By derek c

This is a huge restaurant , but is rarely very full. The Terrace outside is excellent. We ate there twice and had perfect pasta and seafood. Although we didn't have the pizza, they looked great. The wine selection was very good and they sold half bottles of excellent house wine. At the time we ate they did not have draught beer but sold bottle beer. The service was good and the atmosphere impressive. Well worth a visit.

Da Carmelo

Reviewed By kernowking123


This restaurant is lovely on all counts.
The location would initially make you think twice as it is close to a reasonably busy road, but don't let that put you off.
Once you enter the restaurant that gently terraces down, you get a feeling that it is quality. The tables are well laid out, plenty of room between them, with linen tables cloths and napkins & quality cutlery.
The service is attentive without being in your face and the staff are happy.
The focus is seafood and the menu is reasonably short, which in my mind is a good thing as it means less pre-prepared and the focus on quality not quantity and this was certainly true on this visit.
We decided to have a 1st plate (primo) rather than the traditional primo & secondi and we not let down. The scampi, ricotta ravioli and the prawn, pepper spaghetti were wonderful! The latter very simple and very tasty - both were great!
Accompanied by a simple tomato & basil salad and typically good bread we were content.
The house white is a pleasant wine with a very subtle slight fizz, we would recommend ordering the 1litre carafe as the 1/2 litre will be gone in no time!
We opted to have the house desert, but this was the only thing that let the meal down. It was a fresh fig millefoglie a layered pastry slice with confectioners/vanilla custard and one of two was spot on, the other was not quite and the pastry not light/cooked enough. The figs were delicious and was accompanied with some fine fig jam/coulee.
The big surprise, and knowing this we would of been unlikely to order desert, was rather than a traditional lemoncello we were presented with a large glass bottle of what can only be described as cold melted chocolate and two small glasses with a spoon!
This was fantastic and something we had never had before.
Overall the restaurant is well worth a visit, reasonably priced, great quality and we will be going back!

Agriturismo Isca Delle Donne

Agriturismo Isca delle Donne is in a bucolic atmosphere, serving traditional Cilento dishes and products cooked with its own raw materials. Here you can spend an evening in the countryside, between the greenery and the farm, enjoying good homemade food and in an informal atmosphere.

Reviewed By Fabio M - Brussels, Belgium

This is quite a unique place since it is an agriturismo where all that is cooked comes from the owner's farm. If you have kids it is worth going since you can see rabbits, goats, pigs and poultry. There is also a playground where they can play while you order food. However, although the prices are very reasonable, the food is not exceptional and service slow although the people are very nice.
