The best restaurants Ilhabela

For over 50 years, in the hands of the Schaaf family, the Viana restaurant has been a fine establishment serving excellent fish. There are few tables - some are served directly from the boats opposite. If you make a reservation, or arrive early enough, you'll almost be dining with your feet in the water, on the beautiful Viana beach... The best casquinha de camarão (shrimp) in the area, according to the specialists. Prawns à la Moranga are also very popular. A top-class table accompanied by fine wines. Very good cashew caipirinha.

On the docks, partly above the water, in a place that is both rustic and romantic, the restaurant-pizzeria Aerolilha offers tables around a very pleasant patio. The shrimps are divine and the pizzas are not to be outdone: try them without hesitation! However, the bill is quite high, due to the setting, a little less if you opt for a pizza for two. Some customers come to Aeroilha just to have a drink and enjoy the atmosphere and the decorum. You can watch the sun go down while nibbling on salgados.

The Famiglia Manzoli is a restaurant that honours the cuisine of the boot, as its name suggests. It must be said that the Manzolis are cooks from father to son, since the grandfather Tuscan, and the father, passed by the Fasano, among others. It offers a good Italian cuisine, which pasta lovers (ravioli are particularly recommended) will appreciate. The pasta is made on the spot and the veal ravioli with butter and sage sauce definitely seems to be the attraction of the place. The grilled fish is also excellent.
