Upon entrance to this establishment, our expectations were similar to that of a fine dining experience paired with the wonderful view that this restaurant provides. I must say, the environment was fancy, the decorations - pleasant to behold, and the view - stunning. However, the primary roots of my two out of five stars comes with the attentiveness of the servers and the portion size of the food. The Caprese salad was wonderful, the tomatoes were well seasoned and the buffalo mozzarella was very delicious. The bread that they served was also soft, fluffy, and yummy. Our entrées consisted of pasta, Seabass, and red mullet, after waiting 30 minutes for our entrées we were shocked to behold that not much food was given, and we were left feeling hungrier than when we had arrived. The red mullet fillet was perhaps 1 ounce and came with four individual muscles, enough to satisfy a mouse or perhaps a small Chihuahua. The Seabass fillets were substantial, however, they were paired with two thin slices of zucchini, and four small individual russet potatoes, again enough for a camping portion when you are in the mountains. The pasta was good though! All in all, although the servers were nice, we did have to wait quite some time to be served and to receive the check, the food was good tasting, but the portion sizes diminished the experience and left us hungry. Hungry enough, perhaps, to purchase four full-size pizzas immediately after leaving this establishment. Which we did. Because we were still hungry, and this is not to add to the typical stereotype that Americans eat a ton of food, just the entrées were quite puny and the price point was high enough to set our expectations very high. This is a long review, and I would like for it to be communicated that this is purely not harsh feedback but rather constructive criticism based upon our experience. I bid you farewell and good day! read more

Great view from this restaurant, the food was delicious and the staff was attentive. This is not down in the main town so there's a nice breeze and it's less crowded. We stayed in the hotel right next-door so it was convenient for us. Definitely recommend! read more

The entire experience at Da Gabrisa was exceptional. The staff is outstanding and so friendly. Nello, Fresco, Mateo and Luigi were the best at making our meals a culinary delight. We ended up eating dinner there twice because it was that good. Plus, you will enjoy a view of Positano that is magnificent. Highly recommend Da Gabrisa when dining in Positano. read more

Best meal we had on the Amalfi coast and that's saying something!! Their dedicated vegan menu was exquisite - perfectly balanced flavors and portion sizes. The vegan lemon cheesecake served with a tart sorbetto is to die for!! Fantastic service and a stunning view of the coast - what's not to love! PS: they have sourced one of the best olive oils ever and I've looked for the brand high and low - you can only buy it locally! read more

I loved this restaurant! The views were stunning! It was our first big hit in Postiano and when we were walking to check in with our Airbnb, we walked by this beautiful restaurant. Reservations were easy to make. We ordered the Seabass, Ravioli, and Rigatoni dishes. We also got complimentary breads and this little pizza! It was a bit doughy, but it was complimentary so why not! The assortment of breads was lovely. I really liked the dishes. Of course it's all more on the pricey side but you're also paying for the view. With that being said, the dishes didn't wow me too hard, but they were still delicious entrees. We also ordered a bottle of wine for the table. Definitely one of my new favorites! I wish I got the name, but it was a white dry but fruity tone! read more

Up the stairs (a lot of stairs) from Punto Regina hotel is Da Gabrisa. I was looking for a place we could sit outside and see a beautiful ocean view. We found it here. Sitting is a little odd in that the road sits between the outdoor tables and the restaurant, but the cars drove more carefully and later at night it wasn't as busy. The food was excellent. Everyone raved about their meals. I chose the sea bass (branzino) and it was excellent. It had a nice seared top but the fish was flaky and tasty. It came with potatoes and grilled veggies. It was so good. One person at our table wasn't sure about the coffee fettuccine noodles. No problem to substitute homemade spaghetti. We started the dinner by sharing 2 cheese plates among 6 people. It was just the right amount of food to start. The cheese was presented by age. All quite excellent. We also each got a chef's special of deep fried pizza. The bread was so good as well. A great compliment to the meal. Everyone got dessert at our table and all the sweets were enjoyed. Service was excellent. We were very well taken care of, including small wraps for all who were feeling chilly sitting outside. Excellent experience! read more

A great place to get a beautiful view of the town. The food was pricey but that's typical in Positano. Our waiter would be hard to track sometimes but overall the experience was nice. I ordered the ravioli and my fiancé ordered the lobster pasta. Both were great and we got complementary bread sticks and mini calzones. read more

This was one of the best meals I've had in Italy. This was a veal cheek with a potato croquette that was stuffed with cheese. The veal cheek was beyond tender, seasoned and the sauce was amazing. The service was amazing and of course the view of Positano was incredible. If you're in positano, this is a MUST visit restaurant. One last thing, I've had so many caprese salads and this was far the best as well. The tomato's were seasoned and the buffalo mozzarella was delicious. read more

Food and service was excellent! Highly recommend. 15min walk from the port but well worth it.

Stayed down the street from this place and it was so delicious! The food was so good but the SERVICE is what made this place special. We came here twice while staying in Positano and Rafael greeted us every time he saw us pass by and was our server both time. He was absolutely amazing:) read more

This is by far the best restaurant in Positano. Everything is outstanding, from the view out over the water and city below that takes your breath away to the kindness and personal attention of the staff, this restaurant is unmatched. We ate there on multiple nights because the food was so good we dreamed about it. Just thinking about the meal I wish I were back there already. Why are you still reading this?! Go make a reservation already. You'll be so glad you did. read more

Came here for lunch on an overcast day. The view of the city must be pretty nice when the weather is better. The food was absolutely delicious. The ravioli alla Nero was phenomenal, I would 100% recommended it. They also had some craftbeer from Campania which was a pleasant surprise to see. I think we will try to come back one night when the weather is nicer. read more

Delicious evening dinner. I have a gluten and dairy allergy and staff was more than accommodating. Chef prepared an amuse bouche GF and DF for me and brought out a piping hot GF roll (one of the best I've had). While we were not able to sit outside and watch the sunset, the interior of the restaurant was pleasant. What to order: Apps: - Eggplant Parm (eggplant parm in a burrito form - genius) (not allergen-friendly) - Roasted Octopus over polenta with olives and tomatoes (GF and DF) Entrees: - Ravioli with spring veggies and ricotta (not allergen friendly) - Spaghetini with Clams (GF and DF) Dessert - Chocolate mousse with salted peanut gelato - Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake (GF and DF) Drinks - dirty vodka martinis were wonderfully balanced. They have Tito's if you need it certified GF! read more

Food and service were very good! The only reason it's not a five is that the steak I ordered wasn't at the right temp, medium rare. It was delicious but more medium. With that said I crushed it. My wife had the pasta with sauce and it was very fresh. Fresh bread and a complimentary pastry to start the meal. I would highly recommend going here. Great seating outside with a wonderful view. It's on the street so be ready for some noise but not too bad. read more

Very good food. Fancy plates with a fancy spin on traditional Italian cuisine. Outdoor seating by the ledge is a beautiful experience but since it was so windy, we had to go back inside where it was less appealing. Just a bit bright but not horrible looking. Definitely recommend the friend zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta. Fresh and delicious. The big pasta with meatballs were really good. Pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was hearty and damn good. The mixed seafood risotto was excellent. The best thing I had however was the lemon sponge cake. Lemon ricotta, spongey vanilla cake with fresh lemon cream. Amazing. read more

A higher level in Positano both in it's location & cuisine. By far the best dinner I've had during our stay & this is dinner #3. Less traffic in the more residential neighborhood helps set a more relaxing dinner al fresco. The hostess & waitstaff were friendly & knowledgeable & all four of our entrees were superb. I was a little more daring trying sea urchin for the first time - the TAGLIOLINI AL NERO DI SEPPIA CON RICCI DI MARE E LIMONE was sublime. I appreciated the chef relaying to me via our waiter the advice to toss the pasta before eating. The pasta was so light & flavorful - truly tasted like the sea. My fellow diners enjoyed their sea bass & "Positano style" spaghetti with conch, clams, smoked cherry tomatoes. Lots of vegetarian options too. We all decided if dinner was superb, dessert must be wonderful too & we were not disappointed - the banana soufflé with salted peanut was divine. Such a great dining experience. So much so, I'm taking the time to write this review. Worth the climb up to the restaurant. Grazie, DaGabrisa read more

Horrible. Not worth the price. Horrible service. Go literally anywhere else. Owner does not care about his customers. We order food and they brought out wrong dish they tried to gaslight us into say we ordered it and then tried to make us pay for it. Had great experiences in Positano but this was now one. Ambiance was fine but I highly suggest La Taverna De Leone. read more

This place was recommended by our b n b and where we went for dinner in my birthday. There were 4 of us an we did the tasting menu with wine pairing. I am no stranger to expensive food and I LOVE wine so for my birthday I said why not. It was the worst experience I had in my 8 days in Italy. Food was was fishy and over salted. Wine rarely came out with our meal and no one seemed to care about the level of service. I spent almost 700 dollars and it's the first time I had buyers regret in Italy. Do not eat here. read more

AMAZING FOOD!!! so incredibly good. all the flavors are to die for and everything is so fresh. all the breads and bread sticks are great. they have a vegan/vegetarian options which are so good. would recommend the zucchini pasta and the caprese salad. however, it took a really long time for our meals to come out. read more

Great views abound! Warm and welcoming spot. If staying at Art Hotel Pasitea they won't suggest this place which is right next door since they won't get a kick back. But, this cozy place has great service and excellent food. Great wines by the glass as well. Only minor knock is no mignardises with after dinner drinks. read more

Positano is such a beautiful place to begin with, but, if you're looking for a romantic restaurant, I highly recommend Da Gabrisa. It's halfway up from the beach. So, there are much fewer people and it's quieter in that sense. If you're seated outside (and you definitely should be!), it's noisy because of all the cars and scooters that zip by. Despite all the traffic noise, I think you should sit outside, particularly one of the small tables across the street from the restaurant/hotel, for the amazing view of the city and the ocean. Check out the following link for professional photos http://dagabrisa.it/da-gabrisa-restaurant-positano-gallery/ It's not easy to find good food in a touristy place, but I thought their food was very good. Particularly, I LOVED their Antipasto Gabrisa, an assortment of vegetarian appetizers. I thought I would be happy to become a vegetarian! If I visit Positano again, Da Gabrisa is the restaurant I have to go back to. I'm sure I will do that the first night there! ****************************** If you found something useful in my review, please hit "useful" so that I can improve my reviews.

We stayed at the connected hotel, Villa Gabrisa, so we came to the restaurant a few times since it was so close and so good! The staff is super friendly and quick. The food was amazing, I'd definitely recommend for vegetarians as well! There's complimentary mini appetizers and sourdough bread, as well as consistently delicious dishes. Nothing we had was bad or just okay. As a major plus, the view is amazing from the outdoor seating, especially when it's sunny. read more

DaGabrisa It appears that Da Gabrisa has a philosophy of doing a few things well. They offer a limited menu but everything we tried was perfectly prepared and presented. The restaurant is located fairly high-up on the hill which provides the outside tables with outstanding views. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had a 3 minute walk from Villa Yiara for our 7.30pm reservation. Our first course included a shared salad and a shared octopus starter.. Both were excellent. The main courses included the Branzino (fish) and veal cheek. We capped off our dinner with a lemon sponge cake. The wine list is extensive, but I just had a glass of their house red. Overall an excellent dinner. read more

As we hiked up to the top of Positano, we landed upon this beautiful restaurant with table umbrella seating lined up outside across the street from hotel/restaurant with a gorgeous view. The food was amazingly delightful, great wine and beer selection! We would definitely recommend to go back to this location and spot. read more

Da Gabriosa has amazing views over the Fornillo area of Positano and the people working there are very nice. We started with drinks and an appetizer, but then decided to go elsewhere for dinner. The cocktails were expensive and just bad. I ordered a Bellini and what came out was 85% peach nectar and only 15% Prosecco. The drink was like sludge. For the price tag of 10 E you'd think you could get a better split. My husband's martini was watered down and had no bite. Very disappointing for the price. We also got the cheese plate, which was pretty good but was accompanied by no explanation of what the various cheeses were or suggestions on how to pair with the walnuts, jams, and fruit the cheese was served with. The pistachio white cheese had an area with mold that did not look like the good cheese kind. I liked the rest. Overall I just can't recommend this restaurant, even with the beautiful views. Maybe stick with beer or a glass of wine instead of cocktails if you go! read more

We stopped here for our first (attempted) meal upon arrival at Positano as it was close by and open at the time between lunch and dinner...most places weren't open from 3-6 unfortunately. So we tried to make due at this place. They only had a limited "snack" menu of 5 items, which was disappointing. We ordered gnocchi with tomato basil mozzarella for 16 euro and crispy calamari/shrimp for 22 euro. The texture of the gnocchi was pasty and unpleasant, not light and fluffy like the ones we had in Rome and Florence. Consequently my wife only ate a small portion of the dish, despite being quite hungry. No one came to check on us after delivering the food, which is a pretty big lapse in service. The calamari was surprisingly good, tender with a crispy exterior, there just wasn't much of it...2 shrimps and 4 pieces of calamari...for 22 euro! Maybe the prices are just higher here?? What really soured us on this place was when we offered some feedback on the gnocchi (when the server came to ask us how the food was at the END of the meal), the server just responded by saying people come from all over for their gnocchi, and when we compared it to the meal we had in Florence yesterday, she took umbrage with the statement and declared they don't know how to make gnocchi in Florence. Ummm ok. You could just hear us out and possibly offer something else instead as we didn't eat much of your acclaimed famous gnocchi. I just hope there are better offerings here in Positano as this place was mediocre at best. Bottom line: this place is over-priced with service lapses. Don't order gnocchi if you want light fluffy pillowy kind, theirs is dense and pasty. read more

What a lovely night in Positano and Da Gabrisa was the perfect place to enjoy it. Distinctive menu of exceptionally fresh seafood, but also an incredible view of the spectacular town. They also offer a list of great wine. One of the largest I've seen. We had Blue Fish rolled with cheese and Fish Millefoglie. Staff is also super nice/attentive. A must in my opinion. Highly recommend this restaurant, I loved our meal and experience! read more

My hopes were up high for this restaurant. We stayed at the hotel that the restaurant is located in and breakfast each day was incredible so we thought dinner would be also. Unfortunately we were underwhelmed. The appetizers were good, the wine and beer selections were great, but our main course was not. My meal was the seafood risotto. It came out cold, the risotto was VERY al dente and the seafood was rubbery. My husband got a pasta dish with similar issues- cold and too al dente. The wait staff here is wonderful and if you're an American looking for a good IPA beer, this is your place. Otherwise, I don't know that I'd go back for dinner. read more

Everything about this place was unbelievable. Without reservations, they accommodated us with a great table that had amazing views outside. We started with two gin mixed drinks, both of which were phenomonal. We also tried a bottle of barbaresco that the owner recommended, which was great. Their drink menu was extensive and there was something for everyone to enjoy. As a starter, the burrata and tomato salad was great. For main courses, we tried the branzino, lobster pasta, and the cannoncini ragu. We finished every single bite! Each dish was exceptional. One of the best meals we have had. I would definitely recommend this spot! Friendly owner, classy establishment. On top of everything, the staff was lovely. read more
