04/08/2025: Dinner at Cantina Pietratorcia was one of the most authentic and memorable experiences of our stay in Ischia. We're not talking about a simple tasting, but a true dinner, immersed in a charming and atmospheric setting.
The location is spectacular: a garden among the vineyards, quiet and well-kept, with vine pergolas, soft lighting, and a warm welcome that immediately puts you at ease. The perfect place for a relaxing evening, away from the chaos and immersed in the beauty of Ischia's natural landscape.
The cuisine? Extraordinary.
The dish of the day—paccheri with lobster—was simply delicious: perfectly al dente pasta, a rich yet balanced sauce, and fresh and flavorful lobster. A generous, fragrant dish, expertly prepared.
But the true star of the evening was the Ischian-style rabbit: a masterpiece of local tradition, cooked to perfection, flavorful, aromatic, and incredibly tender. A historic recipe prepared with respect and passion, it captures the island's soul.
The house wine, Pietratorcia of course, perfectly complemented the dinner, but the highlight remains the quality of the cuisine, which truly takes center stage here.
The staff was extremely kind and competent, with attentive but never intrusive service. The family-friendly and refined atmosphere made the evening even more enjoyable.
In conclusion, an exceptional dinner in every way. For those seeking the authentic flavor of the island, in a welcoming and refined setting, Cantina Pietratorcia is a must-see. We'll definitely be back!
