The delicious traditional cuisine of Capri and the convivial atmosphere created by Antonio and Aurelia De Angelis and their children Francesco and Renata: ingredients which guarantee Restaurant La Capannina's lasting success.

Situated a mere 100 meters from the famous Piazzetta of Capri, since 1931 La Capannina has been the preferred dining venue of the rich and famous, attracting a glamorous clientele including Jackie and Aristotele Onassis, Marcello Mastroianni, Christian De Sica, Julia Roberts, Dustin Hoffman, Zucchero Fornaciari, Uma Thurman, Silvester Stallone, Michael Douglas and Katherine Zeta Jones, all of whose photos adorn both the menus and the dining room walls.

La Capannina's menu features a tempting selection of local specialities, including linguine with redfish, ravioli alla caprese, seafood scialatelli, prawn and chickpea puree, stuffed calamari, and fresh fish, which varies according to the catch of the day. The ravioli alla caprese are prepared by Giada De Laurentiis in La Capannina's kitchen and presented on her Food Network in the United States.

The choice of wines is an impressive one, the restaurant's wine list containing some 400 Italian and International labels, also available for purchase in the nearby delicatessan, La Capannina Più Gourmet. The shop, opened over twenty years ago, stocks a vast selection of wines, spirits and gastronomic specialities, and luxury gift items for both the home and boat. La Capannina Più offers a worldwide shipping service and, on request, delivers purchases to clients' hotels and boats.

Located right next to the restaurant, La Capannina Bar is open from 19.30 onwards, and provides the ideal evening venue where to enjoy a glass of wine or one of the bar's excellent cocktails, accompanied by tasty sweet and savoury nibbles, all still being served long after midnight. The interiors of the bar recreate the atmosphere of a traditional Villa of Capri, with walls adorned with period prints and floors paved in majolica and terracotta. Both restaurant and bar have an open air area for those wishing to smoke.

Sonia as our waitress was amazing! We had incredible service, great food, and a great restaurant environment. We had an amazing time and they sang Dancing Queen with tambourines, and more instruments. They even accommodated a dish that wasn’t on the menu for one of my friends. A must stop restaurant in Capri!!

Music should be a background!!and add to your experience

Let’s start with the lovely restaurant and surroundings. The music was distasteful. Soul food or Italian fare?? Alicia keys playing on the speakers with her shrill voice left me unable to enjoy the food. Please play soft music to enjoy the lovely food. I did ask to turn the music down and they were very accommodating and did so. We found the food really delicious and the service when we got there was impeccable. But as the evening wore on and things got very busy, the experience changed and we were unable to even get the attention of our waiter to get our bill. For these reasons, I can only give this restaurant a three star, even though the food was good. The overall experience was not what it should have been. I am a foodie and loved the stuffed squash blossoms. I also had lemon veal very tasty. My partner had the eggplant Parmesan and enjoyed it as well as the minestrone soup.

Had lunch here away from the crowds. Portions were generous and quite tasty. Atmosphere very different from other places we ate at on Capri. Quite a homely atmosphere.

Wow - one the best meals I’ve had - excellent staff and service - fresh fantastic food - a little gem that we stumbled across - so much nicer than the tourist trap cafe in the piazza.
