    The sunset

    What a memorable evening. The hotel/restaurant is stunningly beautiful. We ate on the balcony at sunset. It was perfect weather and a beautiful view. The service was excellent from the moment we walked. The staff was so friendly and made us feel so welcome. They made peach bellinis at the table, made great recommendations, and made the dining experience a true pleasure. And the food, oh my goodness. The artichoke was to die for, the pasta amazing, and the extras, like chocolates. And the sunset was stunning. Great place for memories, for me anyway.

    Tiramisu

    Vesuvio was an excellent choice for dinner. The people and service were great. I had the eggplant as a starter and ravioli as a main dish. Both were excellent. The tiramisú for dessert was very good as well.

    The sunset at the Sky Bar

    I am not sure if the name is Sky Bar or Vesuvio Roof but it's at the top floor of Hotel Mediterráneo. Good food. Good love music. Perfect sunset. Good drinks. A great experience. The perfect welcome. I suggest you make a reservation to come and watch the sunset. Bring a light jacket for later in the evening. Everyone speaks English ok. And service was nice and efficient. Dress to impress if you want. I did not :)

    Amazing restaurant looking to Vesuvio, menu fully explained by great wait staff and further explained when it arrives at the table. Sommelier spit on with wine suggestions. This is a must do in Sorrento

    Pumpkin tortellini

    Definitely one of the best meals we had in Italy! If the 5-course tasting menu doesn't knock your socks off, the view will! My boyfriend and I came for dinner and ate on the terrace so we could watch the sunset, and it was an unforgettable experience. We decided to try the 5-course tasting menu for €69 (there's also a 4-course options for €55) and the food was absolutely amazing. Our dinner consisted of eggplant parm, some kind of fish with fennel and berries, pumpkin tortellini, veal, and tiramisu. My favorite was the veal--it was so easy to cut and came with delicious onion jam. My boyfriend loved the tiramisu, it's a unique take on the classic dessert and was full size rather than tasting size. We each also got a glass of house wine, as drinks are not included in the tasting menu but you can add wine pairings for an additional charge. If you're in Sorrento we would highly recommend stopping by, even for a drink to enjoy the view. The hotel also has a Sky Bar above the restaurant that we didn't get a chance to try but would be awesome for drinks!

We wanted seafood because when in Sorrento...why not opt for super fresh seafood right by the coast?! Our server recommended a really delicious local red that was super reasonably priced and we enjoyed with said red: For Primi -- *Gnocchi alla sorrentina (Sorrento-style Gnocchi): I mean...we kinda had to get a regional specialty right? Gnocchi here is potato based instead. It was SO delicious - still perfect texture. They also served this HOT HOT HOT with melty cheese. So delicious and a really generous portion!! *Spaghettoni alle vongole (Pasta with Clams): Another favorite for us in general so figured a really fresh version could be stellar and it didn't disappoint! This slightly edged out the gnocchi for me flavor-wise, but the gnocchi was dang good so it just goes to show how DELISH this was!!! For Secondi -- *Grigliata mista di pesce (mixed grilled fish - this was an incredible plate of such fresh seafood. There was various fish, a giant prawn, octopus alll grilled & seasoned to perfection! *Swordfish special! -- apparently it was swordfish season and it was a 'fresh catch' and I feel like you could tell! Really lovely and nicely seasoned. Portions were very generous & we were way too full for dessert at this point! So you could probably eat more "American" style here (Just 1 entree instead of our approach), but the menu here is pretty stellar!!!

    My mom and I accidentally discovered Trattoria Da Emilia while roaming the charming streets of…read moreSorrento back in June and what a find it was! Not only was it a wonderful surprise to end up dining right by the water, but even with a line out front, we somehow got incredibly lucky and were seated on the patio completely by chance. I noticed what looked like the owner (or perhaps the general manager) walking around, checking on guests, and helping with service, which added such a warm, authentic touch. Like many restaurants by the water in Italy, the seafood here is incredibly fresh ~ and this place is no exception. We ordered the seafood platter, grilled vegetables, and ravioli with marinara sauce. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, right down to the bread. We also enjoyed some Prosecco, which paired perfectly with the meal. The view was stunning, and the whole restaurant buzzed with lively, happy energy. I would definitely return ~ not only because it was surprisingly affordable, but also because restaurants like this, with their true authenticity and old-world charm, are my favorite. One small note: the bathroom is on the second floor, so if you're older or have mobility issues, just keep in mind there's a set of stairs to climb. But that's very common across Western Europe. Fun fact: This beautiful little spot in Marina Grande has some real cinematic history. Sofia Loren and Vittorio De Sica, while in Sorrento filming Dino Risi's famous 1954 movie "Pane, amore e..." (Bread, Love, and...), actually sat at the tables of Trattoria Emilia. How amazing is that?

    Busy place but worth the wait…read more Our Airbnb host recommended this restaurant for local food at reasonable prices. Apparently every other Airbnb host did the same because there was quite the line waiting to get inside. We waited about 20 minutes and the line moved quickly. Kudos to the staff who were excellent and interacted well with us both while in line an inside while eating. Everyone seemed so happy here. Once seated we ordered drinks and the stuffed zucchini appetizer. The complimentary bread was on target. Very good. One of us had lasagna, another had the fish, another had the Gorgonzola Ravioli and I had the Gorgonzola Gnocchi. I tried all the dishes and they were all yummy. Very well done and tasty. We shared the Lemon Surprise for dessert and it was sublime. So tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant but be prepared to wait in line for seating.

The entire team and environment here was friendly and welcoming, and then the food did NOT disappoint. You may think that a dinner served in a giant bowl with a volcano shaped cover might mean gimmicky not good food - WRONG! Just fun presentation for one of the most loaded seafood pastas I've ever had. The caprese salad was so fresh and generous, the calamari was light and rich, and the pasta was so perfect. I would recommend everyone come here if you can.

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.

I will certainly return when I come back to Firenze!

She said her steak was disappointing. It was "dry and stringy". But for those of us who ordered fish as our main courses, it was perfection. Maybe seafood is their strength. Absolutely LOVED the Medallion of mozzarella in carrozza on tomato coulis and black olive sand. I could have made an entire meal out of that. We then had the pasta linguine with "scapece" zucchini and burrata cheese from Monti Lattari. Highly recommend. Came out beautifully. I was too impatient to eat it that I forgot to take a pic first. It was beautifully plated though. I had the Wood-smoked red snapper fillet. It had a semolina, lemon and saffron crust, and rested upon roasted potato and basil cream. Delicious. Perfectly cooked. I took a bite of the Sea bass fillet with orange sauce and capers. The oranges are grown in the Sorrento garden. I liked the sea bass even more than my own. I've been to Sorrento 4x now and this was easily my favorite meal I've ever had here.
