Its on the rooftop of the Hotel Antoinetta just off the main square in this lovely town. Not to be confused with the restaurant downstairs (which is pretty good too! . I would strongly recommend booking, not because its busy, but just so the widest range of fresh seafood and meat is there for you to choose from. There's no real menu as such but you are greeted by the owner/chef who will talk you through what he has available as its all seasonal and local. The choice will range from the catch of the day brought up from the harbour to some really top quality perfectly aged steak. Whilst your choice of fish (sea bass, bream and several local fish we hadn't come across before or meat is being cooked before your eyes on the grill you are treated to a superb range of antipasti. These aren't huge amounts, but enough to whet the appetite and leave room for that freshly grilled main course which comes with a delicious selection of grilled vegetables. There's a decent enough wine selection which is pretty much all typical of the local Campania region from the same producer. Presentation of the food is wonderful and the taste does not disappoint. We had to revisit a few nights later it was so good. The price is reasonable too when compared to the other two main restaurants just across the square. All this is done by the chef/owner who is passionate about his food. His English was better than our Italian and he was delighted to explain the origins of his food. Nothing was too much trouble for him and everything is done with a beaming smile. This great night out was rounded off by a local digestif on the house. I hope to go back to this region soon and this place will be high on my list of places to go back to.

We shared the 'taste of Cilento ' starter €20 then shared a big fish, sold by weight. €55 that we went up and chose from the catch of the day selection on the counter supplemented with 2 huge prawns each. As there were 3 of us, it was the chef who suggested we shared the big fish. All beautifully cooked on the grill at the front, and served with a lovely fresh salad. Could have had vegetables too but we chose to just have the salad. Had a lovely bottle of recommended local Castellabate white wine €18 . They only do whole bottles but I was welcome to take the unfinished bottle with me, which I did! . Altogether, with bread, water, Cokes for the children and a huge slab of chocolate cake that we shared for dessert, it cost €114. Must also mention the beautiful panoramic views of the sunset. It was everything we had hoped for from this lovely restaurant. Thank you for a memorable evening: friendly, helpful staff, beautiful view and delicious food
