The story
On the Lungomare Perrotti in Santa Maria di Castellabate, Osteria 1861 brings a refined, modern perspective to the Mediterranean table. The name itself recalls the historic residence that houses it, a carefully restored building that speaks to the traditions of the Cilento region. Here, the kitchen focuses on the area’s rich culinary heritage, reimagined through a contemporary lens.
The restaurant’s approach to Modern Cuisine is grounded in the quality of local ingredients. The menu, while not detailed in the available sources, is clearly driven by the season and the bounty of the surrounding land and sea. The atmosphere aims for an intimate and elegant experience, where the warmth of the setting complements the precision of the cooking.
Osteria 1861’s commitment to this vision has been recognized with a Michelin Recommended award, a testament to the consistency and ambition of the kitchen. Guests can enjoy their meal on the outdoor terrace, taking in the sea air, or in the refined interior of the historic property. The restaurant also operates as a B&B, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in the relaxed pace of Castellabate, from the first coffee of the morning to the quiet of the evening.
