We shared the lemon pasta and Genovese pasta. We came here already once in December 2024, and it was 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. read more

Started with some wine by the glass, a red and a white. Both were very subpar. I had the spaghetti & 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. read more

Our favorite meal in Sorrento! This family run establishment goes back several generations and serves up creative and delicious meals. We were directed there by our son who discovered it a few years ago, and his favorite dish was the lemon Creme grilled shrimp, which we loved! The prices here were shockingly good, and the service was spectacular: our waiter had been there thirty years, and was so helpful and kind! The complimentary Limincello shot that finished the meal was great! Don't miss this restaurant when you visit Sorrento! read more

Best Food of the trip so far. The pasta had a lemon sauce and the prawns melted in our mouth: the beef cannelloni had a sweet licorice base that was to die for. Server was great & split things up for us. read more

Everything about this restaurant was excellent. Service, kindness, atmosphere, cleanliness, food quality and selection...EVERYTHING! Our servers were kind and patient and we even had a chance to meet the owner! I would highly recommend this restaurant. We ordered a variety of pasta dishes. I do not remember the names of the dishes, but my favorite ones were the lemon pasta and the T-none Florentine steak cooked to perfection! The limoncello at the end of our meal topped it off for me! I will certainly return when I come back to Firenze! read more

We got back to Sorrento after a long day exploring the Amalfi Coast, and we were drunk and hungry. The restaurant I wanted to go to had a long line, so we went in to Ristorante Fuoro on a whim. We were sat and attended to immediately in a bustling and lively back room. We began with the sesame crusted tuna and the roast beef appetizers. Both were delicious, but especially the tuna. For my main, I had the Barolo-Braised Beef Cheek which was served with truffle mashed potatoes, Parmesan fondue and porcini mushroom croquettes. This dish was absolutely excellent. The beef was so tender and just fell apart. Everything melted in your mouth. This restaurant was such a nice surprise and I highly recommend it! read more

Definitely had a good dinner visiting ristorante fuoro for the first time. The fried calamari with shrimp was really well done and would eat that any day of the week. The lemon spaghetti was solid but the tiny little shrimps didn't compete with some of the other places around that also served this dish. Still very good and would eat again. The lobster pasta was a little lackluster as a "special" as you only get half the lobster, no claws and the spaghetti was pretty average. Overall i was still happy with the dinner but Id go back to Semola or L'antica trattoria for pasta before here. But still a solid choice if you don't have reservations read more

Better than many others. Firstly yelp, I've found, is not the bible for food reviews in Italy with limited participation and coverage etc etc. Stumbled on this place in the small streets and had a good meal several years ago. Went back and wasn't as good overall experience but still solid, decent atmosphere and service professional and reasonably priced for the area. The hidden gems are a bit out of the centre and require a bit more work/time to get in read more

Had to make one more review of Ristorante Fuoro before we leave. We ate there one last time and it was better than the first. The chef's special spaghetti with lobster and it was delicious. Had a great Negroni and then Limone Ripieno for desert....it was fantastic. My wife had the sea bass and she loved hers as well. The best place we ate at in Sorrento! The service is phenomenal. read more

Definitely my number one in Sorrento so far! Food, service and ambience were excellent. The skin in the seabass was crunchy while the rest of the fish was tender, moist and flaky. The octopus appetizer was also good and tender. What made the seabass and octopus stand out was the potato puree that accompanied the dishes. The puree had a touch of citrus and mint that made it flavorful and unique to my taste. The anchovies also stood out because of the Neapolitan escarole, burrata, capers, olives that accompanied the dish. read more

Atmosphere was very strange and uncomfortable as soon as we walked in. The drinks we were served I had to choke down, they were not made well at all. I ordered the gnocchi and it was not nearly as good as any other restaurant in how it tasted and was a very weird shape as well that made it look unappetizing. Others in my party ordered the Carbonara and Genovese, both very unhappy with the way they tasted and were presented, we all left feeling a little sick. Very confused on how this restaurant has so many amazing reviews, maybe we happened to walk in on a bad night. Either way will not return and would not recommend. read more

My group found this place and I'm so glad they did. The clam pasta was one of our favorite dishes on the trip. They don't skimp out on portion size and prices were reasonable, especially compared to other touristy restaurants. The service was quick and friendly, and I would recommend stopping by! read more

We were in Sorrento in 2015 for 6 nights, and ate at Ristorante Fuoro five of those nights, because the one night that we ate somewhere else just did not compare to Ristorante Fuoro. I just found a photo of the business card in my photos and had to share that the food here was a big part of our happy memories of Sorrento. The staff was so very nice, even when the Americans asked for butter for their bread. I know, but I need the butter. I have been searching for the same quality and deliciousness in Los Angeles. We must return to Sorrento for Ristorante Fuoro. Thank you ! read more

My daughter found this restaurant during our recent Italy trip. The ambience was excellent, nice and cozy. The staff was very professional. I wanted to try a dish with lemons, since they were everywhere in Sorrento. The pasta with lemon cream sauce and shrimp really fit the bill. I usually don't go for cream sauces but this one was nicely balanced, the lemon flavor was just right. I also had an excellent local filet fish and a perfectly prepared stuffed squash blossoms appetizer. Definitely enjoyed dining at Ristorante Fuoro! read more

Solid restaurant with a nice atmosphere. The gnocchi was very good with a rich red sauce. Parmigiano will be offered as you order it which will add a nice saltiness. The cannelloni is good but was served a little lukewarm. It needed to be hot. Prices are high for what you get but you're in Sorrento and paying for it. House wine starts at a surprising €5 per glass which is nice. You can probably get a similar meal at a better price elsewhere. That said, this is still good if you don't mind the pricing. read more

A hidden gem in Sorrento that exceeded my expectations. I tend to avoid restaurants that have someone standing out in the front trying to pull you in, but we were tired and hungry and the city was buzzing, so we took a chance. We were not disappointed, as we ended up having one of the best meals during our week in sorrento! I highly recommend trying the fresh smoked salmon as an appetizer, and the prosciutto was also PERFECT! Thin, buttery and fresh. For entrees, I had the gnocchi alla sorrentina, which was better than two other locations. My husband had the calamari and prawns, which were pretty good as well, but he regretted getting an entree that is all fried. Regardless, it was a light and crispy fry! The highlight was the beautiful lemon mousse dessert. We loved it so much that we ordered two additional to-go. Throughout our meal, our service was nice and prompt, even though they were busy. There is air conditioning here, so you can be sure you'll stay nice and cool, and the decor is very cute and quaint. Overall, I recommend Ristorante Fuoro for a nice meal in Olde Towne Sorrento. read more

This is one of the top meals we had in Sorrento. Located in the heart of the historic center tucked away in one of the charming alleys. Reservation is encouraged. We saw few parties walked in and got a table. Also, the restaurant is huge. We found out later that they have 3 consecutive spaces on the same block. I had the best seafood linguine. Pasta was cooked al dente in a light delicious tomato sauce. The burrata tomatoes starter and fried zucchini flowers was incredible. The cheese in Italy is just next level. Many options for vegetarians, fish and meat lovers alike. An excellent selection of wine and in an intimate setting. The complimentary limencello shot after dinner was a lovely touch. Very reasonable prices and generous portion. Friendly and attentive service. Gratuity is not expected, but we left 10 euros and our waiter was so appreciative. Highly recommended! read more

We found this restaurant while looking for shelter from the rain, and while it has potential, our experience was just "Ok." It was packed in the front, so after waiting we were finally seated in the back room which seemed like it wasn't opened yet for dinner. Service was a bit slow since we were pretty much in a closed-off room with no windows... but when the older gentleman came, he took our order speedily. Fried Zucchini Flower - had to try it because I heard about it for a while, it's looks like a mini burrito but much lighter, filled with ricotta cheese and the said flower. Had some chew, but just ... it wasn't very satisfying. Basically delicate fried dough with ricotta inside. Botoni - This dish was slightly disappointing. It's basically a dozen or so smaller raviolis filled with monk fish which wasn't as chewy as I had expected, and the squid ink was "drawn" onto the plate in a form of fish... and even though I tried to scrape it with the pasta, it didn't add much flavor. It didn't help that the overall dish just did not look appetizing. (bland yellowish color) I'd skip. Pasta w/ Porcini cream sauce - This was a special, and it was the winner. Pasta was appetizing-looking (unlike the Botoni), cooked perfectly al dente, and the fragrant porcini bits along with shrimp went great in the creamy tomato sauce. This was the "comfort food" we needed after all day walking in the rain in ponchos. For a highly rated restaurant, we left wanting. Portion was on the light side too and I found myself thinking of a Big Mac. I think you can find a better one elsewhere. read more

First, My Friends, a bit about Sorrento. This is the entry point to the Amalfi Coast. It feels a bit like the Jersey Shore with some higher end hotels. All of the restaurants are B's. This is where this restaurant lands Environs. This is a block or two off the main drag and gets a point or two for that. There is no view other than across the street. Scale is small and even charming. Service. I kinda laugh at folks saying the service at European Restaurants is slow and staff aloof. You are not in US Karen, chill out. None the less, this is B service even by low Euro Bar. Food. Again a B. Not much to remember across the entrees and desserts we sampled. Sadly, it's the best i have had here so far and would have to recommend for that. read more
