La Marina In Ponza

Charming staff and delicious cactus parmigiana

A must-see. Magical and delicious food, the fish soup and fig parmigiana are a must-try. Book now.

Spaghetti made to order! Heartbreakingly delicious. The fish is incredibly fresh. The prickly pear parmigiana is also delicious!

I’ve been to Ponza three times – but only on my last trip, just on Saturday, did I finally discover La Marina. And honestly, I think I’ve found my new favorite restaurant in the world. The waitress was kind and hospitable (and cute 😉), the food was out of this world, and the atmosphere, progressing into the night, impossible to put into words.

The atmosphere is beautiful and meticulously maintained, with a seaside, holiday feel. Adequate service and fresh, delicious food. We particularly enjoyed the revisited parmigiana (a parmigiana made with prickly pear leaves) and the fried morena (a dish hard to find in other restaurants, but very good). The pasta dishes were good, although the paccheri lacked salt.

Location rating: 10! Highly recommended for the quality of the fish soup. Congratulations!

Today, I left a piece of my heart at La Marina di Cala Feola. A corner of Greece on Ponza, a corner of haute Italian cuisine, a casual atmosphere, and special food. Giuseppe, a wonderful person, made us feel at home. Unexpected prickly pear parmigiana, sautéed wild vegetables: I think it was the best dish of my life. Affordable prices. I'd love to bring all my loved ones there. I'll be back soon.

Very beautiful and quaint. We had the cactus parmigiana, which was incredible, and the tuna ragù was also fantastic. Get there early to reserve, and you'll be in for a treat. Maybe even ask to sit outside under the umbrella and go.

This is my second time here, and I have to say the location is unbeatable. The food is excellent, always plentiful and very fresh. I'll be back.

La qualità dei piatti è semplicemente impeccabile, tanto da far dimenticare un servizio che, seppur semplice, risulta sempre efficiente e cortese. Il pesce è freschissimo, ogni boccone è un’esplosione di sapori autentici. Il fritto è da leccarsi i baffi, croccante e leggero al punto giusto. Da non perdere gli spaghetti al ragù di tonno, un vero capolavoro che conquista al primo assaggio! Consiglio vivamente di provare anche la parmigiana di foglie di fico d’India, un piatto originale e sorprendente che completa perfettamente l’esperienza culinaria. Il ristorante si trova nel cuore di Cala Feola a Ponza, e la terrazza dove abbiamo mangiato è a soli 3 metri dall’acqua cristallina del mare, regalando un’atmosfera unica e rilassante, con il suono delle onde che accompagna ogni portata. Un vero gioiello per gli amanti del mare e della cucina tradizionale rivisitata con creatività.
