Le Ancore In Napoli

20/10/2024: The review is for the restaurant, we did not use the beach services as our visit dates back to the last day of the season. So partial exculpation on some things that didn't go over the top. Availability and courtesy both on the phone for booking, in the morning, and also as a welcome for our little dog. A bee landed on two out of three plates at our table, in the presence of the waiter, and the plates were changed without batting an eyelid. However, a spectacular view (photos attached) is not enough to justify prices of a starred restaurant, in the absence of starred quality. Fish dishes with very little fish, a lot of "research", but very little substance. The sommelière, penalized by a cellar reduced to the bone at the end of the season, presented us with almost excessive enthusiasm a couple of wines and, once we had chosen the Vesuvian one (for a question of coherence with the place), she abandoned us so as not to pour not even a drop anymore. The same goes for water. Things that I wouldn't notice if the price of the experience had been proportionate, but which I am forced to underline in this case. It must be reiterated that the view enjoyed of Vesuvius and the entire southern part of the Gulf of Naples is indeed worthy, but it is not enough.
