Ristorante San Giovanni

In Pontone just behind the piazza, San Giovanni is the restaurant worth trying. Here the Mediterranean Diet is exemplified - from the garden-fresh vegetables to the fish that still drips seawater when it arrives to be cooked. Handmade salami and prosciutto, fresh pasta prepared in house, and excellent local wine are highlighted by the warm glow of candlelight, or the shaded terrace outside.

Pontone is just three kilometers from Amalfi and 2 kilometers from Ravello, a cute little hamlet in the hills worth exploring, especially for the reward of eating here!
