Apicella combines good food with good drinking thanks to a cellar stocked with hundreds of labels from all over the world.
They are served observing all the characteristics of the tasting. Wines to appreciate sipping taste, aroma and flavor in the wonderful splendor of the restaurant. A collection that stimulates the curiosity to taste even more wines during the meal, given the richness of the menu.
To see and admire the Enoteca dello Smeraldo: seven hundred labels, almost ten thousand bottles, a computerized archive to find the right bottle and an almost maniacal care in order.
A large table in the center suggests that the place is also used for special tastings.
If the wine list is unique, the Smeraldo is not limited to this and adds a list of Italian oils, with the characteristics of each one and the most appropriate use, and finally a list of the best mineral waters.
Our Pizza

Tramonti, an enchanting town on the Amalfi Coast and its traditions.
The painstaking choice of raw materials completes the creation of the famous Casa Apicella specialty.
A Pizza known all over the world.
A noble art, but simply tasty and light, an unforgettable, imitated but inimitable Pizza.
The kitchen
The kitchen is hidden but not hidden, a true creative space. A kitchen of yesteryear, albeit chrome and sparkling, equipped with ultra-modern equipment, where skilled Chefs give free initiative to their creativity, preparing prestigious dishes.
The Lo Smeraldo Restaurant is also Haute Patisserie, Desserts created with passions as well as delighting the palate are true works of art that give an extra touch of class to any important occasion.
The pastry is entirely made inside and is unparalleled, as the many customers who have had the opportunity to taste it recognize … because dessert has always required great care for us.
