24/07/2024: Bagni Tiberio offers a truly unique experience on the island of Capri. Accessible only by boat, this beachfront restaurant adds a touch of adventure to your meal. The maritime shuttle service, impeccable both on the outward and return journey, is an undeniable strong point.
On the kitchen side, the contrasts are marked. Pasta alla vongole are a pure delight, a real explosion of marine flavors. The fries are remarkable, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a strong potato taste. The steak is perfectly cooked, living up to expectations. However, the presentation of the vegetables and salad leaves something to be desired, seeming too simple to justify the high prices charged.
At €28 for a pasta dish, the prices certainly reflect those of Capri, but we would expect a much more presented presentation
careful attention to all elements of the meal. The welcome at the restaurant is rushed and stressful, contrasting with the quality of certain dishes. The service leaves something to be desired, especially considering the €5 per person charged extra. The attitude of the staff, particularly at the checkout, lacks warmth.
Despite these negative points, the exceptional location by the sea and the breathtaking view partly compensate. The return by shuttle to the entrance to the city pleasantly concludes the visit.
In short, Bagni Tiberio offers a unique culinary escapade, combining maritime adventure and gastronomy of varying quality. If the restaurant improved its customer service and presentation of all its dishes to align with the excellence of its best food and location, the experience would be truly exceptional.
