Amalfi Della Sera

Perched on the cliffs above the Enoshima coast, this Italian restaurant offers 180-degree panoramic views of the Pacific that make you briefly forget you are in Japan. The menu covers classic Italian, pasta, risotto, grilled fish, executed with care and featuring local Shonan ingredients where possible. The terrace seating at sunset is the real draw, and reservations for these tables fill quickly on weekends. Budget around 3,000 yen for lunch; dinner runs higher. The drive or walk down from the Kamakura hills adds to the seaside escape feeling.
