Our Cuisine

Tradition, innovation and passion in every dish

The Bagno Antonio restaurant is a place where the sea meets cuisine, creating an experience that captures the essence of Ischia through flavours, hospitality and timeless landscapes. Overlooking the sea directly and with a view of the Aragonese Castle, it welcomes guests into an elegant and authentic setting, where every detail is designed to naturally complement the pleasure of dining. The dining experience unfolds across two distinct parts of the day. At lunch, the menu captures the convivial spirit of Mediterranean cuisine with fresh dishes and seasonal ingredients, perfect for enjoying after a day at the beach. In the evening, the atmosphere transforms, giving way to a more refined offering, where flavour, balance and attention to detail accompany every course. To complete the experience, the wine list features a carefully curated selection of local wines, alongside Italian and international wines, complemented by a refined selection of Champagne, ranging from the great houses to small vignerons. A collection designed to enhance every dish and guide guests on a wine journey that highlights the character of the cuisine and the charm of dining overlooking the sea.

Every dish is based on a simple principle: respecting the raw ingredients. The cuisine at Bagno Antonio takes shape from the quality of the ingredients, their seasonality and a deep connection with the sea around Ischia, transforming each dish into a balance of technique, sensitivity and authenticity. The chef’s philosophy is to bring out the best in every ingredient without altering its identity, through careful preparation and simple pairings. It is a cuisine that seeks harmony, precision and flavour, allowing the flavours themselves to tell the story of the region and its extraordinary richness.

I ate at Ristorante Bagno Antonio during my stay in Ischia and had a wonderful time. A truly beautiful seaside location, a relaxing atmosphere and the freshest fish. The service was friendly and pleasant! The squid salad with orange marmalade was excellent!! Highly recommended for a dinner with a sea view! Thanks again to Michele, Davide and all the staff!

A perfect experience! A beautiful beachfront location, spotlessly clean and with great attention to detail. We had a truly special squid dish, and the fried seafood was light, crispy and full of flavour. The service was excellent and the staff were very courteous.

Thank you, Antonio and the team! We’ve been coming to the lovely ‘Bagno Antonio’ for many years. Everything was perfect again this year (September 2024). A splendid view of Vesuvius, the island of Procida, the gulfs of Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento, the island of Capri and, of course, the Aragonese Castle on Ischia. But the most important thing is the incredibly friendly people (a family) at Bagno Antonio! Delicious food, courtesy of Xavier (the chef deserves a Michelin star), Michele (sommelier), Ilario (beach manager), Davide (restaurant), and Francesco (restaurant and catering) (I hope I’ve got the names and ‘roles’ right) 😊 Above all, a huge thank you to Antonio and his grandmothers and aunts for their excellent cooking and hospitality! Tot volgend voorjaar! See you next spring. Gitta & Michael.

An extraordinary experience, in a wonderful setting. On a beautiful day in May, Mr Antonio, Mrs Raffaella and their grandson Michele warmly welcomed us to a magical spot, where time seems to have stood still. Against the backdrop of the castle, with the sound of the waves keeping us company, we enjoyed a delicious fennel and squid salad and a seafood first course cooked with love, skill and a touch of originality. Ischia is an island that stays in your heart, and Bagno Antonio is certainly a place you’ll never forget. We can’t wait to return and spend more time with this wonderful family, enjoying more dishes and more special moments. A special mention to the chefs!

A stunning location, an incredible view. The owner is a real gem of Ischia. We had a divine dinner – top-quality ingredients prepared with great skill, whilst being lulled by the sound of the waves.
