    Just fabulous! Only suggestion would be is to go and experience. There are so many restaurants in Sorrento all with varying reviews on Tripadvisor, Fork etc. Dining out is personal and we all have varied expectations. This was one of our highlights. Superb, professional and unobtrusive service, perfectly prepared drinks, delicious food and delightful ambience. Top of our list when we return to Sorrento. Thank you for a great night. M&G

    The location is so nice. Right in the Main Street. Lots of activity and people watching. The service was beyond expectations. Very attentive and lots of nice extras. Cleaning cloths before you eat utensil holder, wine coaster, and beautiful linens. The food was delightful. The presentation beautifully done. The whole experience was amazing.

    Excelent food, quality and presentation, but they put ys at their worst table when there was space at other much better tabkes. Then we asked to have dessert at their terrace, which they agreed to, but once at the terrace we asked for dessert and coffee. Coffee never came and ut was not untill we asked for it that theu told us their machine was broken. Waiters blamed each other abkut not having told us promptly about this.

    I had an exceptional dining experience at Cucu restaurant in Sorrento, Italy. The culinary fusion of traditional Italian cuisine with creative twists was truly remarkable. The dishes were not only visually appealing but also executed with precision. The risotto struck the perfect balance between softness and al dente texture, while the pasta was nothing short of excellent, complemented perfectly by well-matched sauces.

    The tasting menu dishes were hit or miss with only 1 dish liked by the whole table. The fish dish was so salty and awful that none of us could eat more than 1 or 2 bites. Overall very disappointing for such a fancy ambience and hi price.

    We regret that you enjoyed our food in quality 'and in quantity.

    Interior design very attractive, service efficient. I felt the food I received as a main course, whilst tasty, I didn't think the portion of six king prawns was enough; however my friend had a pasta dish and found that adequate. The Lemon dessert was extremely delicious. Minutes after we had finished our dessert the bill box was brought, we were told we could pay at the door when we left. A short while later someone came to our table with a card machine, having still nearly half a bottle of wine left to drink we said we hadn't finished yet so they went away. We had booked in advance, it was our second visit during our holiday, we had spent a good sum on each occasion, we had only been at the table for 1hr 15 mins, we felt unnecessarily rushed which spoilt the experience and given that the restaurant wasn't busy at the time.

    We are sorry that you were not well. Our restaurant is small and maybe there were people waiting to enter. We hope to see you soon.

    I do not know how this restaurant has such high ratings. We were recommended this place by our Airbnb hosts. I started off by ordering a limoncello spritz and was brought their special instead. I did not care for it at all. The oysters were fresh.Then we ordered our waiters recommendation of lobster pasta. This was our first night in Italy, so we understood that pasta here is cooked al Dente, but I would say ours was cooked for five minutes max. It was hard and chewy, and when you cut it, it actually had two different colors as if it was not cooked all the way through. The lobster looked beautiful and they split it in half for us, but when my husband open the claw, the lobster was raw. Luckily, my portion was cooked all the way through, but it kind of ruins the evening when someone’s food is not to their satisfaction. Additionally we were placed all the way in the back by the restroom and felt separated from the rest of the guests. While this may be preferable for some couples, I did not prefer it. I am not one to really complain, so we sucked it up and moved on. It truly may be a good restaurant, but we were not impressed, especially for the price we paid.

    Best restaurant in Sorrento. The gnocchi is a must order, and the Sorrento coast spritz was fantastic as well. I have no hesitation in recommending this place to anyone.

    What an incredible meal! Such beautiful creations on each plate. If Cucu were to become pretentious and double their prices, they could get a Michelin Star. I hope they don’t.

    Honestly was blown away by how gorgeous this restaurant was. Such an interesting place with amazing decor, attentive staff and incredible food. My fiancé and I got the tasting menu, one of us got the Sea and one of us got the land and we shared them both so we could try as much as possible! Honestly recommend doing that if you can. All of the food was incredible, but the highlights were the Tuna tartare, the beef ravioli and the cod.

    The eggplant parmigiana appetizer was TDF! The main entrees (veal filled ravioli and red snapper) were the best meals we’ve had so far in Sorrento. Their rum cake for dessert was out of this world…seriously! Service was great, friendly and helpful. Great wine list with different price points. Did I mention their rum cake??? Definitely 10 out of 10.

    Great cocktails and ambiance. Sadly though the food was very well plated, the beef cheek lacked flavor and the tuna tataki was a strange texture. The eggplant Parma was excellent however.

    The ambiance was great, our server was good. I just wish some of the food options had more seasonings. My pasta was okay, but I would have preferred more protein.

    Very nice dining experience. Our waiter was very friendly, spoke great English, and was very considerate about my girlfriend's nut allergies from the second we stepped in through the doors to the restaurant. The food was super and fairly priced with an amazing ambience :)

    An amazing experience, from the exceptional service to the great food, not to mention the extra mile the personnel goes to and the nice music. Would rate above 10 if that was possible.

    Pleasantly happy with his place. Although it is on the main strip (Corso Italia), the ambience, food and staff are definitely Italian. He prices are a little steep, but they are made up by the quality and attention given my Chef Natale. We absolutely loved the decor. We got excellent wine recommendations to accompany our plates. I would definitely return here. If you are looking only for a drink, this is also possible. There is also a few tables outside with heaters to accommodate patrons on the street for excellent people watching. All in all, good food for a very touristy destination thanks to the quality of care by all the staff and owner. Grazie!

    Octopus appetizer was amazing with both presentation and flavor. The gnochetti was outstanding and the best pasta so far in multiple days in Italy. Amber jack prepared like fish should be but almost never is. Service was good but not great. Outdoor atmosphere was busy and table was a bit small. We really thought the food was outstanding!
