Cantina del Vescovo
About
Cantina del Vescovo is a charming osteria‑enoteca nestled in the historic village of Vescovado, Nocera Inferiore, just a short drive from the city of Salerno. The restaurant occupies a timber‑pavilion dating back to the early 17th century, preserved with rustic décor that echoes the character of the surrounding countryside. Open for lunch and dinner (Wednesday closed, Sunday only lunch), it offers an authentic Neapolitan cuisine rooted in local traditions and seasonal produce. Signature dishes include handmade pasta such as paccheri ricotta, tripe with fagioli, and the house specialty pasta alla "baccalaiola". The menu showcases freshly‑made antipasti, soups, and desserts crafted from home‑grown ingredients. A cornerstone of the establishment is its extensive wine list. Originally focused on Campania wines, the Carta dei Vini has expanded to feature around 200 labels from the South, Central, and Northern regions of Italy, hand‑picked for their excellent quality‑to‑price ratio. With a welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, and an emphasis on regional authenticity, Cantina del Vescovo provides a memorable dining experience that celebrates the rich culinary heritage of the Campania region.
