Stumbled upon Che Bonta after a nice long walk and we were starving! We chose a Margherita pizza and a marinara pizza. Both were fantastic!! The thing I love about Italy, is that you can eat almost an entire pizza and NOT get heartburn because the ingredients are so so fresh & pure. Absolutely loved this meal!! read more

Great pizza, I had a sausage and pepper pizza (7.5/10)! The view of the coast was nice and the service was A1. The only thing I will recommend at no fault of the restaurant was bug spray! We were eaten alive and made it hard to relax and enjoy our experience. read more

Che Bonta is a cute little cafe in the small town of Praiano. The tables are staggered up the large steps to the cafe. They serve fresh healthy Italian food. Their salads are fresh and tasty. The Mediterranean Salad was very good and had large chunks of feta cheese. Their Ravioli dish, is one of the best I've ever eaten. If you stay in Praiano, give it a try read more

We went based off of a recommendation, however, the service and food did not live up to the hype. The waitress questioned the amount of food we ordered (we hadn't eaten all day and we're really hungry from traveling) which made us feel awkward. The food was ok, lacked depth and flavor. When we ordered dessert the waitress rolled her eyes at us. She seemed very friendly with the other tables though! read more

Got this for "take away" during a rain storm. Unlike most places on the Almafi coast, you could place the order online for pickup. We got a pizza, the zucchini pasta, salad, roasted veggies and the chicken breast and fries. Nothing was extraordinary but it was all good. The pizza was solid, Neapolitan style. The pasta had good flavor but the pasta was a bit over-cooked. The veggies were tasty and the salad was as expected. The fries and chicken were pretty good, likely frozen but hit the spot. Decent option for staying in. read more

This place is BANGIN!! Not kidding. This unsuspecting little corner joint hasn't gotten enough shine one yelp. We had one pizza and one calzone, both were lights out 11/10. We had the local red & white wines which were average, but beyond that nothing was average. The crispy bacon & onion pizza, calzone, and shell pasta were among the best we have ever had in Italy (between Bologna, Florence, Rome, Cinque Terre, and Amalfi). Also the best we'd had among Positano, Praiano, Amalfi, and Ravello. The servers were also friendly, efficient, and provided excellent service. We stumbled across this place and couldn't recommend it more!! read more

The pizza is delicious and honestly, we went to positano post hike- pizza was not good. Probably didn't go to the right place either but either way, I recommend the pizza here and everything else.

This is the place to go for an easy lunch or dinner when you really want just a laid back night "out in town". Not that there is so much of a town to conquer in Praiano The pizza and the pizza specials are all really delicious - and compared to other restaurants very reasonable priced. The house wine also really makes a girl happy. The seating on the stairs in city center is quite charming, as is the music - if you are a fellow secret pop music lover The only thing we did not enjoy too much was the cannoli dessert - I should have invested those calories in another glass of wine or not pizza. Still: absolute recommendation! read more

They would have just done it because serving a frozen dish is just kind of embarrassing ... especially on the Amalfi coast where they take so much pride in the quality of their cuisine.
