This is a fabulous vegetarian restaurant next to the old port. There is no menu to choose from: the Italian chef, Marco Folicaldi, cooks fresh ingredients from that morning's market.
Five courses delivered by friendly waiters who explain the ingredients of each course. Excellent food and wine, a unique restaurant with a great atmosphere.

You can find vegetarian restaurants in most European cities. Many, however, are a bit too worthy, rather over macrobiotic, too basic for a good night out. Il Margutta is the place for a classy veggie meal. An imaginative range of dishes and some great art on the walls. The best vegetarian restaurant in Europe? Book ahead.
