"after a few years I find myself updating the previous review: ponza is not discussed, you love. same speech for the restaurant pizzeria “il Timone”.. to come to dinner by alfredo is not a habit, but a rite. It's not vacation, I'm not hurting without coming to dinner here. you are well, you eat well, the view is priceless, but you can want more. great alfredo. (2022) I will certainly be aside because I have known the place for years, but if you are in ponza I highly recommend you to make a jump by. maximal"

"Arrived from Gaeta to Ponza via early ferry service late morning so decided to find local place to our hotel for lunch. TA said about 50mtrs away sounded good, 7 of us, luckily we were early as the place is small, found comfy seats and really attentive waitresses and generally welcoming staff. Some of our groups spoke only English, but managed to work out what the days’ specials were, most of the food was on display anyhow. This place is great for a quick light healthy lunch, many choices of cooked food and many choices of Salads and sandwiches (fresh tasty baguettes). Quick friendly service very fair price. Being in Italy, beer and wine was also available. Finished off with a great Illy coffee. Highly recommend for a quick tasty meal, with great service."

"Yes it has been a star restaurant for many years, expectations were high ... unfortunately, for me, they were disrespectful. the location is very beautiful, the view is suggestive (except if you look too low) and the layout of the tables is well studied. the staff of the room is prepared and attentive, the key figures a little less, or better, seem more unwitting than unprepared. the menu is interesting. I find a flaw the lack of a real degotation menu: what is proposed cannot be considered such, since it is an appetizer, first, second and sweet, i.e. a full meal and not a journey among the dishes of the chef. even more absurd is the lack of a wine route in combination. when I asked the staff if there was this possibility I was told that I could choose the wines at the glass and combine them at my liking. the wines to the mesh were 5, of which 2 bubbles. we then opted for a bottle that was served to us in the middle. half only because we stopped and waited for the arrival of the chosen wine. In my opinion there are several things to see. I was brought a chalice that was stoned; I was brought a spoon that was very dirty; the oati dishes for dessert are very ruined. dishes are good, but on 10 dishes only 3 can be considered worthy of a restaurant of this level. others are good, indeed good dishes, but for a normal restaurant, not for a starry. some stances are at least to be reviewed. the prices are high, higher than the ones shown on the site (evidently not updated) but in some cases not justified. the worms at the sea urchins are very good (depending on who ate them) but are simple what justifies a dish from 35€? Just the fact of eating them in that restaurant? Well, I expect that extra from a restaurant like that. good dishes that can give you an emotion, which I have to say happened with desserts: These are starry dishes. also good tooth pies. I leave 3 stars anyway because I didn't eat badly, but, always in my opinion, we are far from what I mean as starry cuisine. Finally, a stunned note that already warned me from the beginning: we booked a month before arrival at the ponza and at the time of booking we were told to call back the same morning of the dinner to confirm our presence. Now, I understand that ponza is an island and so it can happen that due to weather conditions sometimes links are interrupted and consequently reservations can jump, but given the non-different cost that a customer decides to spend to come to eat from you, at least the phone call to ask confirmation you should do it and not us customers!"

"restaurant and pizzeria. beautiful location with view on holy maria and the sea. we, my wife and I ate as the first of the pigeon ragout and fettuccine with frog fish cream of basil and cherry tomatoes. per second a fillet of lampuga, a typical local fish. we drank some water and wine from the house, so we ended up with a dessert and liquerice liquor. we spent only euro. the quality of the excellent raw material, some note on the processing that has been affected by the fact that it was Saturday and the difficulty that ponza, as island, has in receiving the supplies. we had the opportunity to meet the chef, ponzese doc but with a vast experience. We'll be back."

"Sincerely talking I do not remember the first time I came here. Probably I was 3 months old. I was born in March and it was June 1976. La Marina di Cala Feola was the restaurant, place, group of people that my family loved and still love. My grandma lived here. She was forced to stay on the island because she didn’t agree with Mussolini during the Fascism. Vittoria, my grandma, (also my doughter name is Vittoria) spent here a forced vacation together with some other people. Some of them in the future, after the facsism, leaded my country, Italy, as president. His name was Sandro Pertini and he was forced to stay on the magic island too. They were Partisans or, as we say today: Confinati a Ponza. Said that, since I was 3 months old I’ve spent here the best time of my years. I’m allergic to many things (milk, flour, tomatoes) but here my allerigies go away. Far away. Because at La Marina the food came only from the Cala Feola Bay. They don’t cook. They respect the food as they respect people, vegetables, fish and birds. And if the time arrive these food is served to clients. The only problem is that, in the last 15 years too many people discovered this magical place. Probably because to many celebrities arrived in the Hidden Island and in Cala Feola. As the Fendi Sister, the famous Italian Bag Designers. Or like Beyonce the famous singer. Probably the first Fendi Baguette was designed here. But I’m not sure. So please do not came to My Place. Or better if you came please do not throw or leave your tissues, bottles etc on the beach. Because at the sunset Gennaro, Aniello, Giancarlo etc required Us to clean the bay. And we prefer play football at the sunset. Or dance with Elia and his staff on my nephew music. His name is Umberto. And since he’s awsome pay attention: because I’m gelous!
