Il Sacello - MARATEA

We feel can describe this restaurant as a secret gem due to the position and the quality of food an service they offer. there are not words that can explain the atmosphere you can enjoy while eating here, the only way is to test it. The excellent quality of the ingredients and the love people here have for this please is enough for an unforgettable experience.

Probably the best food in Maratea but up many stairs at back of old town, great views of mountains. Part of a very nice small hotel.

We stayed at the linked hotel and decided to eat here. It was an excellent choice. We shared an anti pasto, and a primo piatta. These were octopus and homemade pasta respectively. They were very well cooked and presented. Perhaps most importantly, they were both good. For our secondi piatti, we had separately salt cod fritters and pork tournedos. Again these were splendid. The wine accompaniment was local white wine by the glass. Not cheap, but also very well matched. We were sated by the good food and the attentive, but not overbearing, service and so declined pudding (or dolce). Overall, an excellent meal in a delightful quiet setting in this historic town.

Great restaurant, very relaxed, in a most beautiful setting. Food, wine and service all excellent. Very friendly staff. Tagliata is amazing

We were staying at the hotel and had two delicious evening meals here. The salads and vegetables were extremely fresh, with excellent pasta, fish and meat courses and delicious local wines. Service was friendly and attentive. My only minor complaint was not being given more than a grissini stick and bread roll each (though this was replaced with another later in the meal) and the fruit with ice cream for dessert was not quite what I asked for. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable evening both times and obviously a perfect choice when staying at the hotel.
