First time here while in Sorrento. This was recommended by our Airbnb host. As we approached the restaurant we were warmly greeted outside as if they knew we were coming there! Wow that never happened before to me! We were promptly seated in their spacious back ground that was decorated with a huge wall mural of the ocean. The room was brightly lit with a festive tropical theme. We had a few servers waiting on us at the same time so I was impressed how well they worked as a team in getting us water, drinks, appetizers and dinner orders. The food came out very fast! The Bruschetta was awesome and fresh. We also had the egg plant parmigiana which was also amazing as well. For our main course, we were recommended the Sea Bass special for 2. It came with a full size Sea Bass that they fully filleted for us at the table. It was served with a heaping pile of thick spaghetti like noodles with a favorable sauce. It was so delicious and the fish was tender and tasty without the fishy odor. We also ordered a pizza thinking it was just a small personal sized one. It was a huge 12" pizza! The name was Pizza Nacionale that came with sun dried tomatoes, basil, and pine nuts, and buffalo cheese. It was so delicious but we were so full from the Sea Bass that we ended up taking it home for left overs. It tasted just as good the next day. Overall, I highly recommend IL Ruttino if you are ever in Sorrento. Outstanding and friendly service, great drink and menu selections and delicious food!
I came here because it was recommended by one of my friends who ate here the night before. Since I was on vacation in Naples, Italy, I decided to give it a try. I apologize to everyone for reading this, but I can't remember the name of one of the dishes I ordered. Everything was very flavorful, and the customer service was excellent. I will definitely be eating at this place again before I return to the U.S.
It doesn't look like much from the outside, but it was a great dinner. This is why I love Yelp. I would have never found this place. I would have paid a taxi driver to take us to the area where most of the restaurants are located and totally missed this gem that is a short walk from our hotel, Parco Dei Principi. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. The staff was perfect. The atmosphere is casual. We are only here for a few days, but plan to come back. Every time we saw a pizza going to another table we were drooling. Get there early, or try to get reservations if they take them. There was a line out the door when we left. Yelp said they open at 7:30, but we got there ten minutes before and there were people seated and getting food by 7:20.
It was fine. But two years ago I came and it was definitely under new management then. The staff was overwhelming and when we ordered told us it would be good with every thing each person ordered. A person outside beckoned us to come in (and others walking by) so it felt touristy now. Again, the food was fine not bad but you can find better staying in sorrento. But I remember it being so good and authentic and chill. At the end our server told us to leave a review twice before we left. Sucks because it was that good before. I wouldn't go out of your way for this at all
Don't be fooled by the understated entrance! It's completely Italian and seemed to be a local favorite and a neighborhood ambiance, not fancy, but very clean and authentic. I fell in love with Anchovies here, seemingly fried in olive oil with a very light tempura batter. The service was fine, but when we were there, our servers did not speak English, but it all worked out fine. There pizzas looked great, and we had the LA PORCINA: Fior di latte di Agerola, prosciutto cotto di Modena, funghi Porcini, tarallo napoletano sbriciolato, basilico genovese e olio extravergine di oliva
This is one of the friendliest restaurants I have ever eaten at. The staff were very pleasant and the service was very fast. From the outside it doesn't look like much but the dining area is very spacious and a perfect temperature. If you are in town this is the place to eat. The food was delicious and worth every cent.
Our driver from Napoli recommended this place and we were also drawn to it from the street. I believe his name was Ricardo at the front brought all the energy getting people in the door IYKYK. Best pizza and grilled octopus I've ever had. House wines were excellent as well. Davide was our waiter both nights and he was excellent. I would highly recommend this place.
Our daughter recommended the restaurant having eaten here once before while studying in Italy so we thought we experience as a familia Owner and staff are incredibly friendly, attentive and gracious making sure you understand the offerings and are not left needing while not being overbearing or hovering We started with assorted anti pasta misto consisting of egg plant parm, fried orange blossom, seafood salad, fried shrimp, prosciutto & mozzarella - plenty to eat for 3 people and all was good Entrees included the pasta special of the day , our daughter had the scialatielli with shrimp and my wife also split the pesto pizza with sausage.. Both pastas were cooked perfectly, al dente and the sauce on our daughters tasted delicious and stuck perfectly to the pasta. In addition the all the pasta came hot - a real art when you think its still cooked to al dente But the real story was the pesto pizza with sausage . The flavor was fantastic! I am a total sucker for pesto on anything and the combo with the sausage, cheese and airy crust was outstanding We closed with tiramissu and a rich dark chocolate cake - like a flourless tort I have to point out, all portions are very healthy sized so either bring your appetite or think about sharing This lovely intimate restaurant is a must visit when dining out in Sorrento
Very much enjoyed our dinner here, the staff were very kind to us, especially our server David who went above and beyond. We started with their incredible Bruschetta, and for dinner we tried the Pasta with Zucchini, Snapper (Catch of the Day) and the Gnocchi alla Sorrentina. The pasta with zucchini was one of the best dishes I have ever had. Meloncello was tasty for dessert. Grazie!

Another lovely evening at a place where most would feel like home! Tonight we tried the bruschetta, scampi imperiale, a pizza with pesto and multiple cheeses, the lemon cake, and the meloncello and limoncello. All delicious! If we lived here we'd be regulars. read more

Great spot for either an incredible pizza or a great sit-down meal. The servers are joyful and thoughtful. Ricardo waited on us and he gave great food and wine recommendations. Their fresh seafood is delicious, but you also can't go wrong with the pizzas! Best in Napoli! read more

Fantastic restaurant with super friendly, English speaking waiters / workers. They brought cheese when I asked for it and I was able to order for my partner just pasta and tomato sauce (which wasn't on the menu) . They accept cash, and they have good portion sizes and decent prices. The gnocchi were delicious, I would have had another portion if I wasn't full! Paid €40 for gnocchi, pasta and a marinara pizza! The marinara was so tasty, I don't usually eat marinara but I tried it and I loved it! Super pleasant experience! The atmosphere was also great, super nice interior too. read more

You may not walk into this place just looking at the outside, that would be a big mistake. Take a step in and walk to the back enclosed patio dining area and get ready for a culinary treat. From the bread in a bag which is both crusty and soft along with the mixed salad with olive oil and balsamic was just the beginning of this nights adventure. Next came the sea bass and red snapper in a sauce that required more bags of bread and a spoon to get every drop. Finishing off with the lemon cake and lemon sorbet which put the finishing touches on a great evening. Don't pass this up if you're in Sorrento or you will be Sorry Che buono! read more

What an amazing experience! We came here to celebrate our anniversary and were blown away. We were able to be seated immediately on the cute patio and were then warmly treated the entire night. The food was wonderful and we were able to get anti pasta, mains, desserts, and multiple drinks for under a hundred euro. The ultimate topper was the restaurant manager was very sweet and helped us with calling a taxi but when it didn't come fast enough for his liking, he personally drove us to our hotel! Overall, a wonderful experience read more

OMG. The street view of this place is like any other...simple and not very attractive. But if you do wander in... you will be very presently surprised! Great back patio with shade provided by what else but Lemon trees and shade structures. That said, the food is AMAZING! The Margarita pizza was to dye for and the house pasta with clams was OUTSTANDING! This is what we came to Italy for! After visiting Milan, Como, San Gigminano, Florence and Naples I can say this was the BEST! Enjoy! read more

Bellissimo, just bellissimo. Our favorite stop in Sorrento this far! We have already been a handful of times and have LOVED every moment of it! The limoncello is amazing and the staff is the BEST. Especially Rafaela. He slayed!!!! read more
@justpadge_eats Tonight's dining experience brought us to a place recommended by the front desk. At first glance it didn't seem like much until they walked us through the restaurant into the back courtyard seating area. The atmosphere was cozy almost like being in your own backyard. For starters we had the Frittura Gamberi e Calamari (Fried Shrimp and Squid) lightly seasoned and juicy shrimp. Convinced one my friends to eat it whole as it should be eaten. Next was a amazing pasta dish Tagliatelle con Panna, Porcini e Guanciale (Tagliatelle with SourCream, Porcini Mushrooms, and Pork Cheek) the best white sauce dish since I've been out here. The cheeks were so flavorful and the large chunks of mushroom really rounded the dish. Still have not reached for salt or pepper at any meal in Italy, they have done food right. read more
