Da Maria

This is one of the most elegant restaurants on the island (along with Da Santi), specializing in fresh seafood and homemade stuffed pastas like ravioli with shrimp. The tagliatelle alla granseola are perfection, letting the subtle flavor of the crab shine through without any unnecessary flourishes. The restaurant is also renowned for its spigola al sale, a secondo of sea bass baked in a salt crust. Save room for dessert: Maria's fruit-based dolci are the best on the island. Service is cordial and efficient.
