Stopped in for dinner after a long day of touring in Pompeii. We passed a Michelin-starred restaurant to dine here. It was definitely worth it. The restaurant is in a back alley and made for a private experience. We had three servers taking care of us and making sure we were enjoying our dining experience. The focaccia was better than any I have had. It had fresh veggies and the olive oil blended the flavors perfectly. I had the lasagna, not as good as mine at home but delicious. My daughter had the special, a lemon shrimp pasta. She said it was heavy on the lemon but fresh and delightful. I would recommend the restaurant if you have time to slow down and enjoy your food. We didn't have dessert because the serving size was just right. read more

Raw Chicken Milanese. Not only do they serve raw chicken, they then try to charge you for both (including the one you send back.) To make it worse the manager tries to argue that you ate both and need to pay. Challenging since all the staff saw the waiter take it back. The waiter then corrected the bill, but the damage was done. Being insulted and called a liar is poor hospitality. Simply avoid, the positive reviews must be fake. A table of 4 next to us got up after no one went to them, after waiting for 15-20 minutes. They went across the street- wish I did the same. Incredibly awful experience. From food, to rude and ignorant staff, to bugs all over. A must miss place. read more

Amazing food, service and wow what a view, this table only for the adventurous romantic (only 2 table top on balcony, another is behind but you don't get the view)...you will need to reserve this table for 2 for sure if possible. This place is run by three amazing generations all together, grandma Nona made my marinated seafood, her knowledgeable grand daughter waited on me patiently, two brothers cooking in the kitchen and Mama got my check . Amazing lunch, What a delicious and wonderful experience. Mille grazie read more

Service wasn't very attentive. The food was. Just ok . Had the veal lemon. Nice size but bland .

We stumbled upon this place on our way up from the ferry to the main part of the town. They have the kindest owners. There were 15 of us and they had more than enough tables, even outside, to accommodate. Food was excellent and fairly cheap, and drinks were great. They had a lot of drink options, including pina coladas, wine, spritz, and more. I had the ravioli which had fresh tomato sauce that tasted amazing, but everyone's dishes were great. The owner allowed us to keep our luggage there until our AirBnB was ready, free of charge. Sitting outside was amazing. read more

Excellent food, great service, love the location and atmosphere. We came back on last night for second meal.

Nice little family-run restaurant on a side street in Sorrento. The outdoor tables were a great spot for people-watching. The service was friendly and attentive. The food and wine tasty, with the pasta with frutti di mare being a highlight. Prices are quite reasonable. read more

We stopped here on a food tour. We got to enjoy the ambience and meet the entire family who runs and owns this business. It was so authentic and incredible. The lemon cello spritz were amazing and very strong. The pasta was delicious and everyone enjoyed their meals. We highly recommend this place. read more

Wonderful family business with speedy service and wholesome food. The restaurant is conveniently located on a side street, so we dont have all of the noise (except for the customer and the loud patrons) outdoor eating. My wife had a pizza Primavera and loved it, I had the fillet of Seabass and thought it was very fresh and enjoyable, although not very creative. Gin and tonic was a little bit weak on the gin... But they remedied it by sprucing it up for us. read more

A nice little Italian spot you will find in the heart of downtown Sorrento, Italy. Although my table underneath the canvas tent wasn't the most elegant the surface, and my Branzino white fish made up for it. I started off with some beef carpaccio to kick off my solo meal while I people watched and sipped on some Italian wine. Fresh house made pasta for was delicious that I didn't let a drop go back to the dishwasher! Was a charming little place that I would go back to in a heartbeat. read more

We stopped there for a rest on a busy day in Sorrento. They were very helpful and open around 11:00 am. They suggested bruschetta. It was the best we ever had. We ordered more to go with our limoncello spritzes. It was a wonderful experience to sit outside and people watch. We wish we had more time to enjoy a leisurely lunch. read more

We had the most wonderful experience and meal dining at the delicious family authentic restaurant Guardacino in a lovely outdoor Italian restaurant. The family members that provided us with exceptional service were the gracious sister Nausicaa, her brother and wife along with the beautiful young niece Laura. We have been traveling in Italy for 2 weeks as well as have traveled the world and cannot recommend them more highly for a delicious authentic meal. read more

Another hidden gem here in town! Very low key but definite positive vibes. Good energy and very good service. Our appetizers were delicious, our meals were fantastic, and our 2 desserts were both awesome! Easy to relax and enjoy a great little place - highly recommend! read more

Absolutely DELIGHTFUL! This is such a fun, lively family restaurant. A total treat! It's run by brothers and sisters and daughters and nephews, with bouncy 60s jazz playing, and it's everything you want from a restaurant in Italy. A good time! La Dolce Vita! The bruschetta was fantastic, with fresh perfect tomatoes that have been oddly missing from much of our trip. The rest of the food was tasty -- not fabulous, but well done and hearty, at a decent price. All the staff had big smiles, and so did we! Go! read more

Definitely recommend this place! We had a group of about 15 and they accommodated us so well with a smile. We were so impressed by the service and how sweet the employees are! The food was INCREDIBLE, and the drinks were some of the best we've had so far. They even offered for us to leave our luggage there until our Airbnb was ready. Such a great experience, please go support!! I got the lasagna bolognese and I swear it is the best I've ever had. read more

Wife said the seafood spaghetti was the best she ever had. Ambiance was very good and cozy

Was in Sorrento and wanted some fresh mozzarella and prosciutto. Sign in front of the restaurant said the family made their own mozzarella Buffala so ordered two plates as a meal. Prosciutto was good but only four thin slices of mozzarella that was dry and tasteless. Very disappointed. Waitress was initially friendly then didn't see her for rest of evening except on way out. We voiced our disappointment but they did nothing about displeasure. Won't be back here again. read more

One of the best lunches we've had so far! Stumbled upon this restaurant and they had fantastic service (helped us with luggage and sat our large group no problem). It is a little tucked away so not too loud or crowded! Drinks were very yummy and prices good too! Calamari and carpaccio very delicious!! read more

This place is freaking awesome!!!! It is a wonderful restaurant with many unique dishes. They make you feel very welcome. It is a family-owned restaurant in an out of the way place. It is so worth the visit!! read more

Pleasant outdoor setting and convenientlyicated near the main square but food is just so-so. My seafood pasta dish was a disappointment. Teeny-tiny clams and mussels and they did not even bother to peel or de-vein the two little shrimp. read more

We visited in August and I have been meaning to write a review for Guarracino ever since. We had a wonderful time and our server, Stefan, was an absolute joy. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the food, and the taste exceeded all of my expectations- which were very high. We had the mozzarella platter and WOW - it was amazing. I'm not proud that two of us finished the entire sampler of four mozzarellas. It was complete when Stefan picked a fresh piece of basil off of a plant behind us to garnish the dish. Seafood pasta was not on the menu, but when I told Stefan that was what I was hoping for, he eagerly made sure that I received the meal I desired - even over my objections that I could find something on the menu. We arrived a little late, not knowing the restaurant was about to close and we were made to feel extremely comfortable even after the restaurant was technically closed. That is itself is a feat in an area full of tourist traps. This is the kind of dining experience you hope for in southern Italy. Thank you, Stefan - we can't wait to return. All the best, Julie and Zack (Chicago) read more

Wonderful ambiance and staff, quiet and so so fun! Very italian and fun fish tank! Lots of bubbly drinks :)

This is a family owned business. The staff and the chef are all family and the food was perfectly prepared with fresh ingredients and delicious. The ravioli was to die for and the tomato salad tasted sweet and maid to perfection. We recommend the calamari as well as the lasagna. read more

What is important in a restaurant? That they make you feel welcome? That they provide good service? That they serve delicious food? This restaurant does all three!!! Here we had one of the nicest dining experiences of our three weeks in Italy. If I go back to Sorrento, this is where I will eat. read more

Amazing cocktails! A wide variety featuring all the classics and some new ones too! The mojito was delicious and the piña colada was so expertly crafted. We also had some light lunch with the drinks- nothing fancy, but filled the gap! Would highly recommend stopping here for a cocktail but not too many as they are very alcoholic! read more

I have been all over Italy. Milan, Rome, Naples, Padua, Venice, Florence, Pisa etc. Unequivocally, this is the best meal I have had in the entire country. Great service from a staff that is there to guide you through the menu and provides ample suggestions based on your taste. Strongly suggest the "special" buffalo mozzarella (smoked) antipasti and the gnocchi di Gorgonzola. If you are uninspired or unhappy, you have done something wrong. If there were any more stars to give I would not hesitate. read more
