The story
Il Mirto, in Forio on the island of Ischia at via Provinciale Lacco, 284, is a modern cuisine restaurant that earned a 2026 Michelin Recommended distinction. The menu is entirely vegetarian and vegan, built around produce that changes with the season.
Chef Tommaso Luongo leads the kitchen, drawing on the peasant traditions of Ischia and vegetables grown in a garden the restaurant cultivates itself. The aim is to return the products of the earth to the centre of the table. The We're Smart Green Guide awarded the restaurant 5 Radishes in 2026. The kitchen works with sustainable suppliers, reduces food waste and removes plastic and other non-recyclable materials where it can.
The dining room is light and simple, with a design that echoes the landscape outside. Large windows and a terrace give views over that landscape. The staff are trained and knowledgeable about the vegetarian menus, guiding guests through both the tasting menu and the à la carte options.
