In one of the most breathtaking corners of Capri, right above the island’s crystal-clear sea, Ristorante Da Gemma once again celebrates the rich tradition of Mediterranean cuisine with a dish that combines authentic flavors and respect for nature: Paccheri with lobster and friarielli, the latest creation by Chef Emiliano Neri.
A dish that perfectly embodies the philosophy of the best seafood restaurant in Capri, where every recipe tells the deep story of the island’s connection between sea, land, and tradition.
The perfect harmony between sea and land
At Da Gemma, the best seafood restaurant in Capri, Mediterranean cuisine is reinterpreted with a contemporary twist. The lobster — the star of this dish — is used in its entirety: the tender meat for its sweetness, and the shells for a rich, aromatic bisque that captures the very essence of the sea.
Alongside the crustacean, friarielli, a traditional vegetable from the Campania region, add a distinctive, slightly bitter note that creates a perfectly balanced contrast — a symphony of flavors that surprises with every bite.
Here, cuisine becomes storytelling: a sensory journey through the authentic tastes of Capri, signed by the best seafood restaurant on the Blue Island.
Seasonality, sustainability, and futhentic flavor
Every dish at Ristorante Da Gemma, recognized by its international guests as the best seafood restaurant in Capri, is guided by a clear philosophy: to celebrate seasonal ingredients and minimize waste.
Chef Neri explains:
“For me, lobster with friarielli represents the meeting of sea and land. I love the idea of turning what is often discarded into something valuable. Food should be delicious but also responsible — this is how we express who we are, our land, and our sea.”
A unique gastronomic experience in Capri
Tasting Paccheri with lobster and friarielli at Ristorante Da Gemma is an experience that engages all the senses. It’s a dish of elegance, balance, and authenticity — a true symbol of the excellence that has made Da Gemma the best seafood restaurant in Capri.
