    We stumbled onto this restaurant quite accidentally and it was a fabulous find. We had no reservation but they fit us right in. Looked very popular with locals and I see why. The staff was friendly, efficient, and we could watch the chefs in the kitchen. No one seemed stressed despite a full house. And the food was excellent, with plenty of pasta, meat, and seafood choices. The prices made it even a better value. It's off the main tourist avenues, but absolutely worth seeking out. A highlight to our Sorrento visit!

    My cold meatball

    I ordered spaghetti and meatballs. Everyone got their food and I was waiting for an extra 20 min. Once mine came out it had 1 meatball and it was cold. Do not eat here. Messed up the whole order.

    Authentic Sorrento food. Wonderful, welcoming staff with great food selection. The tiramisu is the best I've ever had. Fresh seafood caught that day and served to order. It's a must.

    Catch of the day!

    Absolutely amazing food and great service! The pizza dough was crispy and soft. Fresh seafood still alive for you to pick as you walk in. Locals favorite.

    Have a few 1/2 bottles of wine which was perfect for lunch

    We stopped by this place just by chance for lunch. Very reasonable prices and friendly servers! They spoke English very well and were very accommodating. There were also a few others who brought their kids in so kid friendly if that's important. They only do the pizza menu for lunch during the summer busy season, so when we visited in February we only had the rest of the menu to choose from which was still delicious.

    Booked via the Fork for ease and while it may seem like a more tourist-y spot (in the sense that…read morethe leads are always inviting folks walking by in to view the menu)...Naima is LEGIT. We wanted seafood because when in Sorrento...why not opt for super fresh seafood right by the coast?! Our server recommended a really delicious local red that was super reasonably priced and we enjoyed with said red: For Primi -- *Gnocchi alla sorrentina (Sorrento-style Gnocchi): I mean...we kinda had to get a regional specialty right? Gnocchi here is potato based instead. It was SO delicious - still perfect texture. They also served this HOT HOT HOT with melty cheese. So delicious and a really generous portion!! *Spaghettoni alle vongole (Pasta with Clams): Another favorite for us in general so figured a really fresh version could be stellar and it didn't disappoint! This slightly edged out the gnocchi for me flavor-wise, but the gnocchi was dang good so it just goes to show how DELISH this was!!! For Secondi -- *Grigliata mista di pesce (mixed grilled fish - this was an incredible plate of such fresh seafood. There was various fish, a giant prawn, octopus alll grilled & seasoned to perfection! *Swordfish special! -- apparently it was swordfish season and it was a 'fresh catch' and I feel like you could tell! Really lovely and nicely seasoned. Portions were very generous & we were way too full for dessert at this point! So you could probably eat more "American" style here (Just 1 entree instead of our approach), but the menu here is pretty stellar!!!

    Saw Naima on Yelp and figured it was worth a shot. Restaurant is modern, with bright decor. Waiter…read morewas working hard! He also helped with recommendations. I had been bit by a crab a number of times at Amalfi earlier in the day. I decided to return the favor and had the excellent crab with squid ink pasta. I will say that the crab was a lot of work, it was also a delicious crab. The squid ink pasta itself was perfectly al dente. Added a second course of a local fish with cherry tomatoes, also delicious. Family enjoyed their dinner as well.

    After some not so great recommendations from our hotel last few days, I decided to trust my Yelp…read morefriend's reviews and picked this place. Thankfully I did that & we were all pleasantly impressed! Everything was perfection from start to finish. Exceptional service, food & presentation & ambience . If you're visiting Sorrento, Italy you must stop by here!

    Blink and you'd miss it from the street... you walk in (assuming it's a pizzeria) but nope - it's a…read more'fancy place' that you wished you dressed better for. Since this is a tourist town - all the guests kept it casual while the fleet of workers were well-dressed and constantly 'making the rounds' for refills, food, clearing empty plates, you name it. Favorite quote came from the younger twin: "the potato caught me off guard!" - when discussing his lamb special's side, a single compressed potato that floored him. (He would mention this damn potato the rest of our vacation to anyone that would listen!) One quibble: giving us really whack (dull) knives for two dishes that most definitely needed a sharp/serrated blade. (And of course this was the one time none of the staff entered our orbit to ask/complain for something a bit more effective than a darn dessert knife.) Regardless: a (most) memorable dinner. Pro-tip: keep the young one's eyes away from the series of 'donkey' statutes when entering/exiting the front of the ristorante. (Unless you're ready to have 'the talk' with them while on vacation!)

    We popped in after a long train ride. We ate inside, and enjoyed reading the reviews graffitied all…read moreover the walls. The food was incredible. To start, we had burrata, bruschetta and mixed salad. All were good. The salad was fresh and crunchy (with lettuce, fennel, radicchio, carrot in a light vinaigrette). The sun-dried tomato bruschetta was delicious (with soft cheese, drizzled with honey). The burrata was also amazing (tomatoes tossed in police oil and salt, surrounding a fresh creamy burrata). We had pastas (gnocchi and ravioli fungi) and chicken. I had the ravioli, which was delicate and scrumptious. Everyone enjoyed their meals, though the chicken was very simple. Finally the service! We were greeted with warmth and the service right through was perfect. Thank you!

    Everything was incredible! We started with the bruschetta and eggplant Parmesan, both were amazing…read morebut I can see why their eggplant parm is one of the most popular/best dishes. Every bite was AMAZING. The servers and staff that we came in contact with were wonderful and attentive. The place itself is nicely decorated, and has a very clean bathroom. I like how staff stays by the door to welcome people in, but they don't badger people on the sidewalk to come in like other places. We're thinking of going back even though we only have a night or two left in Sorrento, it was just that good!
