During a short vacation in Ischia, on the recommendation of some residents, I was able to enjoy excellent food at "Mare Chiaia," a restaurant and pizzeria run by my good friend Alessandro. We went for dinner on September 2 and 3, 2025. The first evening, we enjoyed excellent pizzas and excellent mussel-based first courses. The second evening, we enjoyed a delicious tempura, cod-based second courses, and excellent first courses (paccheri with amberjack sauce and monkfish sauce), all accompanied by an excellent white wine, and to finish, a delicious dessert accompanied by an excellent local liqueur. What can I say? Alessandro (the owner) is a delightful, kind, and sociable person. The staff is courteous, friendly, and ready to accommodate any request (and unlike some annoying, nosy, and often incompetent places).
What can I say? There are few places where you can find all this, so I can only be satisfied. And, on a future trip, who knows, maybe back to Ischia (a wonderful place), my go-to pizzeria will be MARE CHIAIA.
I can only recommend it 100%.
P.S. I think even those who aren't big eaters will feel at home.
Best wishes, Alessandro and all your staff.
Vito Notarnicola from Turi (BA).

We've been dining at the Marechiaia restaurant for several days and it's been a wonderful discovery. Tables overlook the sea, the staff is courteous, attentive, and efficient. Menus cater to all tastes and budgets. You can order just one pizza and they serve you with white gloves. Kudos to Alessandro and Mattia, who are friendly and skilled restaurateurs. Excellent, highly recommended.

A lovely restaurant overlooking the beach. The food is very good and of excellent quality, and there's a wide variety, including pizzas, first courses, second courses, and salads.
The staff is friendly and attentive. Finally, I think the prices are fair, even lower than other similar restaurants in the area. I recommend it!

Marechiaia is one of the reasons why my family and I chose Ischia for our holidays. For two summers in a row, we've been having lunch at Alessandro & Co. The food is excellent, the prices are reasonable and fair, the service is cheerful and fast, and the location is great. And what can I say? It even beats Salento for me! 😉🤗
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

We had dinner with friends and family while traveling. The food was excellent. Great location and service. The owner or manager, whoever he was, was particularly helpful. Recommended!

The food quality was poor; the fish (fried fish as an appetizer and linguine with clams and lupini beans) didn't seem very fresh and lacked flavor. The pizza, however, was good.

We got two take-out pizzas, I had a red one with provola cheese. I hadn't eaten such a good pizza in a long time, tasty and light.
