Caffe Borghese

Reviewed By Katie B

Gorgeous garden at the back so a really lovely place to be. Very friendly staff but food not quite up to promise. Excellent starters but the meat that we had (Tagliata and a steak) was a little lacking in flavour. We nonetheless enjoyed it but it was a little spoiled when we had to wait over 30 mins for the bill, despite asking 3 times!

Origano Cibo e Vino

Reviewed By Jo T

We stumbled upon this place by accident really, and we were not disappointed! We went for a birthday lunch, and couldn't have been happier with our choice of restaurant. It was a beautiful setting sat outside in the quiet gardens, and the staff were exceptional throughout. Most importantly - the food was delicious, and the paired wines were absolutely perfect. Although on the upper end in terms of price, it was totally worth it! We even took home a bottle of local wine for £8 - total bargain.

Grotta del Conte

Reviewed By Kristiina83

This is probably the most up-scale restaurant in Castro. It's a beautiful place with some great food, very nice and professional service. Prices are very reasonable, just as in other restaurants in Castro, even though this is a bit fancier. Great view! Seemed to be popular among locals, also.

Il Villino

Reviewed By 924willemb

Already the stale bread, smelling of hand lotion set the tune for the rest of the meal. Antipasti, for the most part awful. Seafood salad similar to the kind found in the bargain department of Lidl. Scallop shells filled with bits of leftover fish. A true swindle. Mediocre seafood pasta. Mediocre rosato. Sluggish ,uninterested service. €300 for a lousy lunch in 6...30 min after, bad stomach cramps.No wonder the place was practically empty... We should have known better. Stay away!

La Casa Dell'Angelo

A small sea-food restaurant with a selection of wines from Apulia.

Reviewed By SimplyFred

Just beautifully presented food in an attractive cortile. The menu has changed a little since last year and really suits us. Very difficult to look elsewhere when it is this good! Attractive aperitif style Spritz were served to start. Which was a good idea and just the right size.

Tuna Lounge Restaurant

Reviewed By Ilane2001

The restaurant is located in the small village of castro and offers fresh fish and great pasta dishes. We really enjoyed the food there especially the raw fish (salmon tuna) and the sea food pasta. The service was also lovely with waiters speaking good english which helps and the chef coming to talk at the table. Lovely place!

Augustus Resort & Restaurant

Reviewed By MazzyMayhem

I am reviewing the Augustus Resort in the capacity of a wedding guest. Breath taking from start to finish, is all I can say! We arrived at the swimming pool, where canapés were being served. The atmosphere was heavenly, the place clean and beautiful. The views of the sea were stunning. We had the first course outside in the 'gardens', as this consisted mainly of freshly cooked fish/shellfish. I know that the quantity of food supplied is down to the bride and groom, but there was so much of everything, all the staff were helpful and welcoming, and the presentation of food was amazing.The remainder of the courses were inside and, once again, all beautifully presented, tasted fantastic and the service was wonderful. One of the guests at our table is a vegan and the staff were very accommodating in making her a suitable meal (she has other dietary requirements too). Nothing was too much for them and the staff were all eager to please. The building itself was stunning and clean. The toilets were nice too!It was the best wedding reception we have ever been to and if I could get married again (to my husband, of course!), it would be here :-)
