    The pizza is just OK but does have a nice view from the patio which we all enjoyed very much and they were able to accommodate all eight of us and next-door they do have wine and coffee and snacks that you can grab the keep the house you rent

    Lobster pasta special

    We ate here our first night in Sorrento. They have a service that picks u up and drops u back off at your hotel. Good thing be aide it is all the way up in the mountains. Beautiful view. We were there at night but lunch or sunset dinner would be best. Although we did see fireworks in a distance. Tony the owner takes your oders gives u specials and reassures he is there for anything u need. Prices we extremely reasonable and food was very good. The lobster was cooked perfectly. Make a resi for an outside table.

    The view...ohhhhhhh, the view. I think the view just happens to make the food taste even better than it already does. Our driver, Davide (pronounced "David", likely to accommodate our American accents) recommended this little place and it was delish. Freshly made pasta (of course) and sauces...each one better than the one served before it. Loved the fantastic service, the setting and the view. Freshly made breads with verdant Italian olive oil, bruschetta with tomatoes whose taste is so exquisite I have no idea how I'll eat an American tomato again. The same tomatoes that make up the pomodoro, it was like eating a velvet tomato only much more flavorful. Crisp lettuce made up the salad. Couldn't have planned a more memorable lunch in the city of Sorrento.

    This may have been the best meal I have ever eaten. Everything at this place was above and beyond our expectations from the staff, to the view, to the atmosphere, to the food. Started with the grilled calamari and vegetables, followed by the most perfectly cooked crab stuffed ravioli with fresh mussels and clams, then a main dish of sea bream in a lemon and basil butter sauce, finished all with a lemon cream cake and shots of limoncello. My girlfriend had same except did her main dish as sausage with mozzarella, I tried it and it was good... But not as good as the sea bream. You gotta remember seafood is going to be the way to go here since it's right of the coast. Make sure you make reservations for this place well in advance (especially during May-August) and if you are from out of the country and working with a travel agent, it helps to have them book it. Gracie Mille to all of the wait staff and chefs! We truly felt like we were treated as honored guests.

    Great prices

    Amazing dinner at Il Borgo. We were looking for a restaurant with a nice view and good food and Il Borgo didn't disappoint. We sat on the small patio overlooking Sorrento. We ordered pizza, risotto and pasta - everything tasted (and was) homemade and very delicious. Overall excellent food, great view and great prices.

    We shared the lemon pasta and Genovese pasta. We came here already once in December 2024, and it…read morewas as delicious as we remember. Having visited multiple places in Italy and Sicily the last time, this place stood out as one of the favorite spots on our trip. Of course we had to stop by again, and we were not disappointed. When in Sorrento, lemon pasta is a must, but I have the say that the true star was La Genovese pasta, which was recommended by our server. My husband still liked lemon pasta best, which means you really can't go wrong. Their bread was also delicious, particularly the white bread and the breadsticks, and they give you balsamic vinegar and olive oil for it. Considering most of the bread we had in Italy was surprisingly disappointing, it's exciting to eat somewhere that the food is good from start to finish. They also gave us one scoop of limoncello and one scoop of lemon gelato for dessert. Both were delicious, but my favorite was the lemon gelato. This is our second time back, and we would not hesitate to eat here again the next time we're in Sorrento. Servers were also friendly and helpful. The food does take a while, but that goes to show that it all is freshly made. This place is great whether it's for a casual dining experience or for date night. They also have free WiFi, just ask them for the info. I love that it's also a family establishment, and family members work at the restaurant. I'm already looking forward to my next visit here.

    Started with some wine by the glass, a red and a white. Both were very subpar. I had the spaghetti…read more& meatballs; sauce was a bit sweet and pasta was not a second past al dente. My wife had the bolognese, which was a bit bland. Complimentary bread is served with oil & balasamic. They had some type of a loud noise (generator?) going on & off most of the time we were there, which was an ambience killer. Service was adequate.

    Busy place but worth the wait…read more Our Airbnb host recommended this restaurant for local food at reasonable prices. Apparently every other Airbnb host did the same because there was quite the line waiting to get inside. We waited about 20 minutes and the line moved quickly. Kudos to the staff who were excellent and interacted well with us both while in line an inside while eating. Everyone seemed so happy here. Once seated we ordered drinks and the stuffed zucchini appetizer. The complimentary bread was on target. Very good. One of us had lasagna, another had the fish, another had the Gorgonzola Ravioli and I had the Gorgonzola Gnocchi. I tried all the dishes and they were all yummy. Very well done and tasty. We shared the Lemon Surprise for dessert and it was sublime. So tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant but be prepared to wait in line for seating.

    For our first dinner in Sorrento, the Mr. and I chose La Cantinaccia del Popolo. It's an…read moreextremely popular restaurant so by the time we got there @ 7:00 there was already a large line waiting. We passed the time chatting up those around us, and after about 45 minutes we were finally seated. The Mr. opted for lasagna and I got the scialatielli also scoglio (homemade pasta with seafood and tomato sauce) which was presented in a fun way. We concluded by sharing two desserts; the 'lemon delight' and the profiteroles. Service was friendly, prices were reasonable, and the food was delicious.
