The bay of Marinella Restaurant

Very nice view! Went there to celebrate my birthday, and we were randomly Placed, without any specific birthday attention (by the way Parker’s Hotel Do it even if you take only tea). Nice food, and thanks Mirko Was there, otherwise it was kind of difficult To get the attention of the waiters. Linguini alle vongole are tasty even if it’s a different recipie. Also kind of expensive.

Based on the recommendation of some friends we decided to dine here tonight. The location is water front - no it’s better say over water from where we were sitting - with a sweeping view of the bay of Pozzuoli all the way to Mesino with Ischia in the background. The prices are a bit high. The menu is not very diverse, but has a bit of everything. So we desired to do the tasting menu, a bit steep at 80€ per but by the time we had an appetizer and main, we would be at 55€ so why not?! The food was delightful: arancini, cod in mild japenese inspired soy sauce, calamari prepared like noodles with Spivey njudia flavored cream, gnocchi with seafood (my favorite!), tuna with sweet potatoes, raspberry sorbet palette cleanser and the dessert: lemon tart and chocolate semifreddo . Each dish was served quickly and perfectly. Why 4 stars and not 5? Parking: there is none. They should offer valet. (Especially at the prices they charge!) We will likely return - when the wether is warmer and when we can find parking nearby!

Didn't get the dining experience I was expecting here. My food was fine and the staff we're trying. Some of my party got the wrong food and one of us got no food till everyone else was finished. Not ideal 😕. Also one of our party had his food removed before he was finished eating. Again not what you expect in a fine establishment I think maybe they were having an bad day. I'm sure it's not like this all the time
