The menu: Pizza Margerita, Insalata DI Salmone, Octopus di Lemone…read more Short version: the meal was delicious! The pizza was very crispy, the salad was really fresh, and the octopus was also well done and with a very good taste. And the coffee (German say Espresso) was one of our best coffee we had on the island Elba. A recommendation: Yes.

Very kind people: I had already eaten and I took a friend just arrived, I explained that and they…read moresaid no problem. Anyway I tasted the pizza of my friend and I found it not bad. It's not my favorite kind of pizza (the true Napoletana) but it is a medium upper quality pizza.

For several years now, we've crossed the island of Elba from the little town of Cavo, where my…read morein-laws own a vacation home, to the larger and lovely Maricana Marina on the other side of the island and each time eaten at Vizio Antico, an experience I always look forward to. The restaurant is set in a serene and rarely crowded piazza next to the main church. This last time we were a little surprised upon our arrival that the menu had changed and the dishes that we order every time were no longer there. However, the paccheri (a Neapolitan pasta) and ravioli dishes that they replaced them with were just as superb. They have fancied things up a bit with the presentation. Restaurants on Elba can be revolting and are generally catered toward undiscriminating vacationers. Though I have never eaten anywhere else in Marciana Marina, I can't imagine that the many other restaurants in town could be any better. If you find yourself anywhere on Elba, this place is worth going out of your way for.

I'm shocked this amazing restaurant doesn't have any reviews?! ITS THE BEST food we had on our…read morewhole 2 week trip. We went back 2 times!! Quattro pizza, the grilled calamari ( A MUST - actually the best calamari both of us had in our lives) and lasagne. Their house white and red were delicious. We are outside once and inside once. It's causal but friendly and festive and staff treat you well. Not to be missed.

I have a sneaking suspicion that it will not make it to the morning completely intact! Also had the bruschetta, scalopinni which were very good. However, our tiramisu and Pana cotta were excellent.

The owner is from Naples and the pizza reflects just that. The salads are wonderful too. We had the penne all'arrabbiata and the spaghetti polpo di riccio(pulp from sea urchin) both were incredible! The Zuppa di Mare was so huge and so delicious!! Full of mussels, swordfish, clams, octopus, squid , baby crabs and the best red broth ever. We also had the scallopine con porcini mushrooms and tagliata con Parmesan. Both were good but nothing compared to the Zuppa di Mare. It was so huge I thought they were charging us double as we were two. But no when I'll conto arrived we were only charged for 1. Awesome. The staff is amazing!!! So friendly, professional and totally on the ball. I highly recommend this place and when you can come ask for Enzo and tell him Peggy and Francesco sent you. Buon Appetito
