Cappun Magru is, as noted in many reviews, more difficult to get to than many restaurants, but entirely worth it! My wife and I ate here last week on our belated honeymoon, and it was one of the most memorable experiences in Italy, and ranks in the top dining experiences I've ever had. Chef Maurizio Bordoni and his wife and... More

Our family of four shared a wonderful 2-week vacation in Italy in August 2012. We visited many areas areas and towns including Cinque Terre, Tuscany, Positano and Rome. We had fantastic meals at wonderful restaurants but as others have stated, this was our absolute favorite meal and restaurant. Without a doubt, visit Cappun Magru in casa di Marin and you... More

We made the mistake of not alerting the host that two of our children are vegans, which upset the host (she states that if we give advance notice, they are able to plan a great vegan... More

The restaurant is located in the little village of Groppo somewhere in the hills above Manarola. We took the bus to get there and walked to Riomaggiore downhill after the dinner (ca. 50 minutes). The place is cosy, the interior being quite simple. Good view over the hills. We had the dinner menu and everything was very good to eccelent.... More
