Casual, low key place. Food was excellent. Service was very good. Outside tables a bit noisy due to traffic. Inside tables are good. Will return.

The food quality was outstanding. The ravioli and cannelloni were some of the best we’ve ever had. We would absolutely return.

We were made to feel welcome as visitors and not just, get em in get them out like several other restaurants. Staff took the time to explain dishes on offer. The food was super, sea bream on linguine. The whole experience was lovely and a great view of the Bay of Naples as the sun was setting. A great place.

They are trying to scam you if you say you are from the fork. Always order from the menu. The receipt is hand written and they can add whatever prices they like. Would not come again for sure
Taverna SorrentinaDear customer, a handwritten receipt does not mean there is any fraud: prices and dishes are always clearly indicated. Also, asking if a reservation was made through The Fork is a standard procedure to verify any discounts. Transparency towards our guests is fundamental for us. Best regards, Mattia & Alfonso

This was a 10/10 experience, the service was perfect very reasonably priced and food was delicious! We also traveled for our honeymoon and they made that little bit more special for us

From start to finish, this was a memorable experience. The staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive without ever being intrusive. The food was simply outstanding—each dish thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. To top it off, the view is nothing short of spectacular, creating the perfect backdrop for an exceptional meal. Friendly service, delicious cuisine, and a setting that takes your breath away—what more could you ask for?

Food was ok. As an Italian Canadian with plenty of Italian restaurants back home, this was on par with average Italian restaurant in Toronto. We have many restaurants that would put this place and many places in Sorrento to shame. The food might be good for those non Italians who still think the Olive Garden is fantastic. The gnocchi were average, and the lemon pasta was tasteless, overpriced for the few minced shrimp that were included. Eggplant parm appetizer was good but portion too small for price. Thank goodness for the 20% Fork discount.

Had a nice meal here on our first night, very tired after a night and day of travelling. Relaxed atmosphere with nice outdoor tables in the shade and overlooking the bay. Friendly, welcoming staff. Convenient location for Hotel Ascot.

The house red wine was undrinkable (lesson learnt) ate by a busy road, pizza felt undercooked, although pasta and starter we couldn’t fault. Service was average.
Taverna SorrentinaDear Emma Thank you for your feedback — we’re truly sorry your experience didn’t meet expectations. Had you mentioned the wine issue at the time, we would’ve been happy to replace it immediately (as we did for another table shortly after). Being a natural local wine without preservatives, it can sometimes suffer from high temperatures. Regarding the table, we did see your note and offered a switch so both seats would have a sea view. You confirmed the spot was fine, but if it turned out to be too noisy, we’d have gladly moved you — a quick word would have been enough. As for the The Fork discount, we’ve checked the reservation on the platform, and it appears there was no active promotion linked to your booking. It’s possible there was a misunderstanding while browsing the app, where discounts are sometimes shown for different time slots or menus than the one booked. We truly hope to have the chance to welcome you again and offer you better experience Best regards, Mattia & Alfonso

Best meal we’ve had in Italy!!! Don’t miss the tiramisu. Welcoming, friendly staff. Skip the expensive tourist traps and head here!
9.5
Excellent service. Tiramisu was the best I have ever had. We were given free ice cold limoncello shots at the end of dinner. Burrata was amazing.

Authentic food in a traditional setting....outside of the main tourist drag so one for the short list

Superb. Only criticism was my shrimp pasta dish was very very salty but service was excellent and mussel starter was amazing.

TOURIST TRAP!
3.5
Food was not very good whatsoever. Complete tourist trap. And then on top of that the server added an extra 5€ on the machine when we went to pay card and then tried to play it off as an accident and kept saying “I keep I keep”. Absolutely not when we already tipped.

The service was excellent. The waiters were very friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. We ordered carbonara, gnocchi, and the special, a filet mignon with vegetables and potatoes as well as the fiori di zucca. It was all so good!

Food was really good & the staff were really friendly, efficient & helpful. We would definitely return.

This place is a textbook tourist trap. I have no idea what justifies the glowing reviews. The food is mediocre at best – poorly executed, industrial in quality, and lacking any real flavor or care. The cocktails overly sweet and borderline undrinkable. Ingredients feel mass-produced and generic. The only upside? It’s cheap. But I’d rather pay a bit more for food that doesn’t taste like it came out of a factory. Not recommended.
Taverna SorrentinaDear customer, We’re sorry to hear that your visit did not meet your expectations, but we cannot allow our name to be tarnished by unfounded accusations. Our establishment is not a tourist trap — on the contrary, we use high-quality ingredients, and we put care and passion into every dish and cocktail we serve. You yourself wonder how we have so many positive reviews. Perhaps that should make you reflect: if the vast majority of our guests leave satisfied and only you did not, could it be that your personal taste simply differs from what most people enjoy? You’re entitled not to like our offering — and we respect that — but that doesn’t justify such harsh and sweeping criticism. We encourage you to reflect before discrediting a business that operates honestly and with dedication, as proven by the many genuine reviews from happy, returning guests. Best regards, Mattia & Alfonso

Nice food and service!

Slightly out of town but well worth it. Great view of the Bay. Service was friendly and efficient and the pasta was first class. House wine (sold by the jug) was good for the price. Recommended

Lovely dinner, great ambience and friendly service. The Tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had (they had run out of lemon cake which also looked delicious)

Too noisy, so many staff members walking around without cleaning tables or serving
Taverna SorrentinaHi Helena, we’re sorry to hear that your experience wasn’t entirely positive. We’d like to provide some context: last Saturday night, we had an exceptionally high number of guests, including many local customers who frequently choose our venue to spend their evening. This made the atmosphere livelier than usual. Regarding our staff, each team member has a specific role—some take orders, others bring dishes from the kitchen, and others serve at the tables. This might have given the impression that some were not actively clearing tables, but in reality, everyone was carrying out their assigned duties. We still hope that you enjoyed your meal and that we’ll have the chance to change your mind about our service and atmosphere. We’re sorry if your rating has affected our business, but we truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve. We’d love to welcome you back for a better experience! Best Regards. Taverna Sorrentina.
