Recomendations on Restaurants in Positano
 

My husband and I are planing a trip to Positano in July. We'll be staying at the Villa Rosa for 4 nights. Any tips on great restaurants. Is it necessary to make reservations ahead of time or should we wait until we arrive? Thanks

I was in Positano in May.<BR><BR>We loved La Tagliata-they are not expensive and located up on the hill above Positano. They will send a car for you. Great atmosphere<BR><BR>'OGuarracino was great for Pizza.<BR><BR>Valle Dei Mulini in the town center was also well priced and recommended by locals.<BR><BR>Chez Black is fun to hang out in-we just had pizza.<BR><BR>Donna Rosa is great-but more expensive.<BR><BR>We did not make reservations-but May is less crowded then July.<BR><BR>Have a wonderful trip!

Debra,<BR><BR>My husband and I really enjoyed Bruno's . It is around (just past?) Le Sirenuese and is so yummy. The other night my husband wished he could be transported there to enjoy a green olive pasta they have. Really good and it is a fight to get a table outside.<BR><BR>We also enjoyed La Cambusa right in the town center. They have wonderful mozzerella and therefore great caprese salads. I also enjoyed their mussel (is that spelled correctly?) soup/stew.<BR><BR>My, it brings back wonderful memories! I hope you enjoy your stay and I am sure you will not go wrong with your food choices.<BR><BR>Jessica

We dined at the Covo dei Saraceni hotel restaurant on the beach and had a lovely sunset meal. We made our reservation at the hotel desk (we were there just last week). I've heard Max's is also outstanding - right off the main walking path down to the beach.

Hi Debra,<BR><BR>So glad to hear that you are going to Positano. I visited in April and it is spectacular. There is a new restaurant in Priano (15 minutes from Positano) called La Strada that was superb. The chef came from Palazzo Murat in Positano (very swanky hotel), but the prices are 1/2 that, and the atmosphere and service were just wonderful. <BR><BR>I wrote up my restaurant, shopping and sightseeing tips on fodors.com. If you type in "kiki" you will get all the scoop that you need!<BR><BR>have fun!

-<BR>Valle Dei Mulini, yummmy. Had an excellent meal there during a '99 trip to Italy. I was in Positano in April, so can't say if you'll need reservations. Gut instinct is yes, you'll be there during height of the summer.<BR>
