Features & Facilities
In our city we eat well everywhere.
We will be happy to advise you best according to your tastes.
In the meantime we recommend:
the Gelateria Gabriele, one of the best ice cream shops in Italy, very close to the house.
This dairy offers fresh ice cream, cheese and yogurt… all excellent. You can order a plate of artisanal cheeses, try a plate of strawberries and fresh cream or enjoy one of their famous ice creams with a thousand flavors, best consumed in a warm brioche.
During your stay we recommend you taste the provolone del Monaco: this typical local cheese is produced only by some specialized cheesemakers located in the hills surrounding Vico Equense. Order a plate of provolone del Monaco at the tables of Tradizione, a delicatessen and bistro in Seiano run by the De Gennaro family.
Ristoranti gourmet
In addition to their numerous and excellent pizzerias, Vico Equense is famous for having one of the highest concentrations of starred and gourmet restaurants in Italy.
Torre del Saracino
Gennaro Esposito’s famous two-Michelin-starred restaurant is located in a historic watchtower in Marina di Aequa. The tasting menu includes an endless array of dishes for which Gennarino (as he is known by locals) has become famous.
Osteria Nonna Rosa
Chef Peppe Guida has created an intimate and charming restaurant inside his family’s 17th-century home. We recommend you try the tasting menu, known for its whimsical name: “Peppe, fa tu” (Peppe, you decide)
