Il Flauto di Pan Amalfi Coast

Il Flauto di Pan sits within the grounds of Villa Cimbrone, just steps from the gardens. It is a five-minute walk from the Duomo di Ravello. The restaurant holds a Michelin star and ranks 38th on the 50 Top Italy list. The room runs smart and elegant, reflecting the precision of its Mediterranean and seafood-focused kitchen.

While many of its neighbours in Ravello leverage their proximity to the Duomo to draw transient crowds, Il Flauto di Pan relies on the seclusion of the villa to set the tone. It lacks the hurried pace common to kitchens closer to the main thoroughfares, making it the better choice for those who value the quiet of the gardens over the buzz of the centre. You come here for the sustained focus of a Michelin-starred menu rather than the convenience of the village square.
