    A beautiful dream of a chefs kitchen!
    Nancy H.

    We happened upon this gem of a Michelin restaurant. What a great find! Amazing view, incredible wine and food and a very friendly staff. Sensi was only open for lunch and we had a great meal. We started with octopus, tuna with avocado and the burrata. Then a primi of pasta, which was excellent and then shared the sea bass which was a local favorite and a crowd pleaser. For dessert we tried them all- the lemon dessert was the favorite and the chocolate a close second. The restaraunt is incredibly beautiful and has a dramatic view of Amalfi and the coast line. Don't miss this one!!!

    We went to the Amalfi Coast in June 2019 for our honeymoon, and our trip was full of amazing meals but Sensi was absolutely the best. They started us off with an amuse bouche, which was delicious. We had appetizers, octopus and beef tartare, and both ordered pasta dishes for entrees. Everything was wonderful, and the service was great. I hope we get a chance to come back here again! The ONLY thing I would change is that when we ordered the beef tartare, the waiter asked if raw meat was okay and looked rather pointedly at my stomach. I wasn't pregnant, and we had already ordered a bottle of wine. But other than that, everyone was extremely personable and attentive.

    Excellent meal, best we've had in amalfi so far! Went for lunch and was told we could pick where we wanted to sit, so of course picked the best table with a gorgeous view of the bay. Staff was some of the most warm and friendly that we have experienced in Italy so far, did not act like they were bothered by our (obviously) touristy selves. Food was beautiful and delicious. Was more pricy than some of the other restaurants we considered, but honestly worth the difference. Will definitely be back when in amalfi again!

    The best restaurant I have ever been to in all of my work travels. The service from the moment you step in from coat/umbrella check to the service through out the entire meal. The staff did not miss a beat. I am a very very picky eater and the dishes have the right amount of texture and flavor through out. The wine list was very extensive as all great italian restaurants are I recommended getting a local wine as that is what I had and it was excellent. The best part of the meal was the lemon dessert. It was wonderful. I will be back this place deserves all 3 Michelin stars. Thank you Alessandro Tormolino and the GM what wonder experience and end to my trip.

    My wife and I were staying nearby in Amalfi and decided to see if we could get a table on the balcony overlooking the water even though we didn't have reservations. So glad we did! We were seated on the balcony and had the best meal of our trip! The service was incredibly good. The sommelier was particularly good, offering the perfect wine accompaniment for our dishes, as well as cocktail recommendations at the end of our meal. The amuse bouche was very good, but the appetizers and the entrees were amazing! The lobster appetizer served with a jalapeño infused olive oil was so good, I honestly almost ordered another, but stopped myself. The turbot (white fish) was fantastic with a really well-balanced and tasty caper and ginger sauce. We also had the scallop appetizer and the sea bass. All were good. For dessert. We had the lemon dessert and the hazelnut mousse. Both very good and were paired with a chocolate liquor and a very strong walnut liquor respectively. The food was all perfectly prepared, the service amazing and the setting was beautiful. All this, and the prices are actually very reasonable. I highly recommend!

    Perfection!

    My husband and agreed that this is the best meal we have ever had. It's perfection, the chef is an artist that keeps surprising your palate with a joyful journey you don't want to end!

We did manage to throttle back and not eat all of it lol, as we wanted to still enjoy our starter and pizza. The oils provided were the perfect compliment for the bread, the salad (and the crust of the pizza). Salad was fresh and light. Pizza rolled out next and we still believe this to be the best pizza we ever had. Not heavy, but filling. The flavors were so rich and bright. Of course I had to have a local beer which paired well. The seating was outside, which was covered in an ivy like feel. It was lemon trees providing adequate sun coverage and of course looked beautiful. We would highly recommend checking out Donna Stella if you're in Amalfi.

It is kind of hidden away and looks almost like you are entering someone's property. There was a wait but they seemed to remember faces and I did get seated after about 30 minutes, though they did seem pretty busy for a Sunday night. I ordered the lemon ravioli since I had been eating a lot of pizza and read that people enjoyed it. In my opinion, the lemon ravioli didn't have as much flavor as I would have liked, it seemed a little bland and didn't really taste like there was much lemon flavor and the quantity was a little small. Cooked well though. I think I would come back again but order the pizza instead. They did have a longer wait if you didn't make a reservation. Their lemon tiramisu (8€) was definitely worth it. Very creamy and not too sweet and had more of that lemon flavor that I was looking for. I wish I had come in a group, so they I could have tried more things, but no worries that can be next time.

We started with an amuse-bouche (compliments of the chef), which was a parmesan cracker with ricotta. We shared two appetizers among the four of us - a tuna carpaccio in citrus fruit and poached eggs with black truffle. The poached egg came in a sauce that was totally delicious and mop-able with bread. The tuna was fantastic and very light. For the main, our table split the pasta stuffed with burrata and black truffle and the risotto with red shrimp in lemon sauce. Absolutely incredible! The risotto was soooo refreshing and light and cooked perfectly. The truffle pasta was full umami flavor and a flavor party. We ended with delicious desserts, my husband got the hazelnut coffee which he loved and I got a lemon assortment. This had a lemon cream brulee sort of preparation which I loved. The wines here were also fantastic and the service prompt and great!

They don't have anything marked GF on their menu but the server walked me through what I could have. My friend and I started with the La Caprese and they provided me with a GF baguette. For my entree I had the zucchini GF pasta. The pasta was good but the sauce was a bit overwhelming. It wasn't my favorite. My friend ordered the La Genovese with GF pasta and it was really enjoyable. They only had 1 GF dessert so we opted to get the lemon sorbet. They also brought out a few GF candies as well. Overall the service and views were really nice but I wasn't a fan of my entree.

Tony provided impeccable service and explanations and Antonio, the chef, even came to the table multiple times to deliver his works of art cuisine.

They do offer gluten free and vegetarian options but not together. There is a tasting option with 7 courses or à la carte. They do take a deposit of $120 per person 3 days before your reservation in case you cancel. The restaurant is centrally located and easy to get to. You have to ring the bell to enter. They take your coat after you sit at the table. The decorations are of the 12th century applied arts. I had to order à la carte due to being a vegetarian and GF but my friend ordered from the tasting menu. The food and service were wonderful. We both ordered a glass of wine - I had the moscato. They have GF bread that was brought to the table. It was also made with the bruschetta. For my courses, I had the omelette with broccoli, pumpkin GF pasta, buffalo cheese with tomato under lemon leaves, a palate cleanser of strawberry ice cream, and chocolate mousse. We even got to try their Michelin best dessert of 2026 which was the lemon soufflé. It was decadent and delicious. We even had a tour of the kitchen to see the artwork on the ceiling. Overall our experience was cozy and sophisticated with its lemon infused dishes. Would highly recommend!
