Il Sottoscala
About
On Elba, Il Sottoscala sits in the heart of Porto Azzurro at Via Ricasoli, 11, 57036 Porto Azzurro LI, Italy, a short walk from the harbour in one of the island's liveliest coastal towns.
Il Sottoscala is known for its kitchen, and first-time visitors should expect a menu shaped by Italian island cooking, which centres on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines. A 4.5 out of 5 average from 513 reviews places it among the better-reviewed tables on Elba, and that volume of feedback suggests a steady local following as much as seasonal trade.
Portoferraio, Marina di Campo, Capoliveri, Marciana, Procchio, Cavo and Rio Marina all lie within a drive of the Porto Azzurro address, so the restaurant fits easily into a day moving between the island's main towns. A website at http://ristoranteilsottoscala.jimdosite.com/ carries further detail.
Italy's islands have a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters, which shapes when the island's tables fill up. Smaller islands are reached by boat and have few cars, so getting around Elba is often easier on foot or by ferry than by road.
