Soul & Fish

Soul & Fish is a seafood restaurant in the Marina Grande fishing village of Sorrento, Campania, southern Italy, at Via Marina Grande 202, and is listed in the Michelin Guide. The kitchen works with a fish-only menu of Campanian seafood, drawing on the day's catch landed on the nearby waterfront. Dishes named in published listings include scialatielli with seafood, plin alla Nerano priced at EUR 28 (about USD 32), tuna with pistachios, and a ceviche at EUR 25 (about USD 29), which shows a mix of regional pasta and lighter, modern preparations. A five-course tasting menu is offered at about EUR 90 (about USD 104) for diners who want the full range of the kitchen. The setting in Marina Grande is one of the most atmospheric parts of Sorrento, with colourful boats, old stone houses and sea views, and the restaurant is positioned for sunset dining. The mood is relaxed but polished, a step above the casual waterfront trattorias, with attentive service and a dining room that suits couples and small groups. Noise levels are moderate. The beverage list focuses on Italian and Campanian white wines and sparkling wines that match the seafood. Hours are listed as lunch and dinner daily, roughly 12:00PM to 2:30PM and 7:00PM to 10:45PM, although listings differ and a phone check at +39 081 878 2170 is advised. Reservations are recommended for sunset dinner in summer, and booking a few days ahead is sensible in July and August. Marina Grande lies at the foot of a steep road from the centre, so visitors typically walk down from town or take a taxi. The restaurant suits travellers who want a seafood-focused evening in a historic fishing quarter rather than a pizza-and-pasta meal.
