My wife and I and her parents enjoyed a relaxing evening here. We all had hot and tasty meals during a cooler evening. The house wine exceeded expectations. I was the odd one in the family not bringing a jacket and Tomaso our waiter gave me his windbreaker from his scooter. What a nice jesture ... he offered blankets to... More

This place is very convenient and consistent. We have gotten to know the staff already. The food is amazing, but beware the portions are very large as we learned on our first visit. The giant prawns are a delight, and the staff really looked after my young son, with specific dishes that suited well. A spectacular view overlooking the church,... More

We found this little place when we were in the mood for pizza, and it didn't disappoint. The mixed grilled vegetable plate that we had was very generous and good. The pizza was okay - they used canned mushrooms, which was a bit disappointing, but the toppings were plentiful. After we paid the bill, they surprised us with an on-the-house... More

a wonderful place for lunch with a great view. Our party sat outside on a very pleasant day in April. The pizza was fantastico! The pasta d'mare was tasky and the presentation wonderful. The staff was attentive and helpful and very pleasant!

We ate here twice and both times were excellent. Portions are very big so you could share. They have a facebook page and you can see pictures of people visiting the restaurant and even of the meals being served. Highly recommended.

A nice view and a nice and kind service, this is what this restaurant is about. Its food is poor in quality (mostly frozen fish) and it has nothing to do with the Campania region tradions. To limit the damage, order just a pizza and the most basic one! Bear in mind that - as other restaurants in Praiano -... More

Had some very good pizza and salads here on a couple occasions. Othere dishes I saw coming out of the kitchen looked good too. Nice atmosphere, nice staff, good location.

since it was located quite close to our hotel we decided to "take the risk" and have dinner there; the owners of the hotel suggested us not to go there because the food was not good, they said, but they were wrong. They had the best pizza I ever tried ! Fantastic ! Just thinking of it makes me hungry... More

Maybe we caught them on a bad night, or got there too late (they said they'd had a big party in before us), but 2 rather average pizzas and a €42 bill left us unimpressed.
