One of the most beauiful places ive been to. Up above the Amalfi Coast with outstanding views this small town has it all. The gardens are spectacular and we were lucky enough to have room to move having visited off season in March. The skies cleared and the only word for it is Wow. In my opinion it leaves the coast for dead, a lot quieter and a lot to see and do. Cafes are great and our hotel Lolanda was amazing. I cant stress how important it is to take a little time and go off the beaten track up to this place. Visit all the gardens at the top and you wont be disappointed.

Must visit, but try earlier than in the evening, as the sun goes away from 4 pm in October. Sunsets are amazing though. And in October there are not so many flowers and colors like in summer pictures, but still nice. The house is unfortunately empty, and there’s not much to do.

It very beautiful up here. we visited this place in Sept 2023 during our Amalfi coast tour. It is a trek to get to but when you get here you will be greeted with spectacular views! I can get busy at peak times but it is beautiful. The gelato from the small cafe is absolutely worth the walk. Definitely recommended.

Extremly beautiful villa, gardens and view. The ticket was 8 euros, no line, we got to experience the place all by ourselves, maybe because it is off season (november 2025, monday). We got to see the garden with winter flowers, but still extremly beautiful.

Villa Rufolo was such a hidden gem here in Ravello. Really enjoyed the small room showing the videos and giving some history of the place which helped color a beautiful picture of music, history, and brilliant views. I highly recommend making a stop here if you are visiting Ravello. My best advice, take a scooter to the top of this hill instead of this bulky busses, you’ll be happy you did!

Villa Rufolo is a must - see hot spots destination for anyone visiting the Amalfi Coast. A real hidden gem on the Amalfi Coast and one of my favorite place to see it. This is nature’s artwork on display . A very impressive, stunning place with a unique color of the spirits, worth all the raves about it. Worth spending a day here soaking in the ambience, surrounded by incredible scenery, pure natural peaceful, beautiful masterpieces of gardens and magnificent spectacular breathtaking views from every corner. It’s a truly enchanting and experience visiting this beautiful place There is beauty around every bend. Serenity in every view!!! Simply breathtaking!!!

Villa Rufolo is amazing place where you can enjoy a view in every corner. The gardens are very beautiful and with many many flowers. Highly recommend!

A modern auditorium located in wonderful landscape of Amalfi Cost

In Ravello, the curves of the auditorium designed by Oscar Niemeyer rise imposingly against the scenic backdrop of the Amalfi Coast. The architect had designed an a masterpiece which expose the constructive and aesthetic possibilities of concrete. Respecting the site’s architectural and natural identity, the terrace from Ideal Work overlooks the sea, blending seamlessly into the surrounding landscape.

Extravagant style in this old town of Ravello, high above the Amalfi coast.

Oscar Niemeyer is a unique architect. I've seen his amazing work in Brasilia, which is weird and incredible, I've seen his work in Lille, and much to my surprise there's an auditorium on the Amalfi coast. It's as unique as his other work. Visited it, it is being reconstructed. But weird as ever.

10€/h to parking here? No, sorry.. I am okay without visiting Ravello. I'll take my hard working money elsewhere

Thanks so much to Simone who waited for us past their closing time ♥️♥️ Such amazing customer service.

BEWARE WHEN PARKING HERE!!! SAY NO TO THEIR VALET Long story short, i rarely leave any comments in google maps, but now im reviewing a parking lot because i dont want anyone to have the same bad experience like us when visiting ravello! I planned to visit Villa Rufolo but there was no public/paid parking spot available. Desperate and frustrated, I found out that this auditorium has a big parking lot which charge 3 euros per hour (source checked from google), then I planned to park here since 6 euros is better than wasting time looking for parking. When I entered the parking lot, a guy with short figure told me that its not 3 euros per hour but 10 euros per hour since we own a big car (almost like minivan). Feeling a bit sketchy,i still decided to pay 20 euros for 2 hours because i dont want to waste more time. The WEIRD part is that the fat guy inside the counter (another person) told me that I SHOULD leave my key to them to park my car. At first im a bit confused because i have never encountered any public parking or garage parking that required me to leave car key to the valet. I just dont like the fact that some stranger know how many stuffs I have inside my car since I have plenty luggages and valuables after I checked out from hotel in the morning. With positive mind, I still tried to think positive and agreed .That short guy has a quick eye when he noticed i bring my drone down from my car (i did it super quick) then he asked me like "is that a drone?" Our family was shocked of how quick witted he is. He then parked my car at the right side of the garage but when I came back, the car was parked at the left side! Why did they move my car even tho there are only 2 cars in the garage? I visited in low season in the morning. Then instead of him who bring me the car, there was a big tall russian guy who drove my car back to me. Okay 30 euros paid because i was gone for 3 hours (as agreed in the beginning). I visited another nearby town before checking into the new hotel and head for the big supermarket. We stopped for groceries around 40mins and parked our car in the supermarket parking space. When we returned, i found my car window was smashed and all of my luggages were gone. I have visited europe a couple of times and supermarket parking is considered "safer" since it is an open space with a lot of people around. The stuffs inside my van are plenty and huge that suv or mpv car wont fit, only a big van could fit all of them. This is just my speculation like what a coincidence some thieves with a big van know there were a lot of things inside my car and only a big van would fit all of it? Unless it was tagged and we are being followed. When i check my android google location, it is written italy but in russian alphabet. that parking guy's attitude alone is enough to not park your car guys, i dont usually do this but i dont want anyone to get the same experience as mine, not trying to prove or anything, just telling you guys to be careful

Nice for a quick trip from Amalfi via bus. The square has some good cafes. Lovely views and relaxing atmosphere.

The Duomo of Saint Mary is a decent cathedral, but it definitely fell short of my expectations. The cathedral area was pretty large and had some unique character. However, the walls were mostly white with little artwork. There was also a museum with old empty sarcophaguses, church artifacts, and sculptures dating back to the 13th century. It was a good experience, but it didn’t blow me away. If you’re in the area, I would recommend going to the nearby Amalfi Cathedral instead. It’s the same price (4 euros) and it blows this cathedral away in size and ornateness.

The duomo of Ravello is quite beautiful, yet the least interesting sight in the village. The most important part are the mosaic covered pulpits inside.

I really enjoyed this church. It is not overly decorated and is in fact quite austere. There are two beautiful pulpits covered with mosaics with Arabic influence. The bronze church door is also spectacular. The museum of the church has some beautiful objects.

Beautiful church...entrance to the church is free, and the museum is 3Euro PP- cash only.

Pretty church, plenty to see in museum.

Lovely Cathedral where live classical music is played and sang. Just outside is a square with a restaurants and cafes. And Ravello is beautiful to walk about and discover. Recommended.

Italian home cooking at its finest! We've visited a total of 5 times over our last 2 trips to Ravello and can't wait to return again. Some of our favorite dishes are Lasagna, lemon pasta, mushroom pasta, and meatballs. The desserts are also amazing. Thank you so much Nicola for your hospitality and incredible food!

Outstanding! We’re already planning our return. The bruschetta and pasta dishes were absolutely delicious, the wines were fantastic, and our waiter’s service was exceptional. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

A real hidden gem in Ravello serving simple, authentic Italian food. We started with the bruschetta topped with burrata, confit tomatoes and pistachio pesto – absolutely superb. The pastas of the day all sounded tempting, but we chose the creamy lemon pasta and the creamy zucchini pasta, both of which were outstanding. Fresh flavours, generous portions and a relaxed atmosphere made this a memorable meal.

The food here is simply perfect. Instead of Marina Grande in Amalfi, this place deserves the Michelin plaque in the future. We didn’t even plan on having dessert, but since everything was flawless, we couldn’t resist – and we’re glad we didn’t. This is Italian cuisine at its absolute best.

Would give more stars if I could. Just a few minutes walk from the main square, you can find this gem run by a welcoming local. The food is outstanding and probably the best in Ravello. It is quite a bit more expensive than other Italian establishments, but worth it.

Best Italian food we have had so far. All four dishes we ordered were phenomenal! Owner was amazing and so helpful.

Had a fantastic meal here on our last night in ravello! The restaurants in town close early (around 9:30pm) and luckily we got a table here! Delish menu options and awesome vibe! The bruschetta was great- a bit different than most places which was a nice change! And the meatballs were so flavourful! We got to speak to the chef/owner afterwards and he’s such a kind interesting man! A must see in ravello!

Beautiful restaurant and dishes, though not every one was exceptional. The grilled octopus with potato strips in a cream sauce was exceptional. The mozzarella prepared 3 ways was also quite good. The tuna carpaccio was beautiful but zero flavor. The service was desultory. Overall, a nice experience in a very touristy spot.

What can I say? These guys went out of their way to accommodate our large group of 14, a really last minute surprise to celebrate my husband's 60th birthday. I don't remember all the dishes we had but all of it was fresh and delicious. No complaints at all. Truly a memorable meal and one of our top meals on the Amalfi coastline. And the service was super friendly and attentive to our needs. Highly recommend Da Gemma.

Amazing meal here one of our best in the area. I had the Genovese and the steak - both were amazing. Staff was super attentive and very nice. Everyone enjoyed their meal - highly recommend 5/5!

My mother and I loved Da Gemma! I would recommend making a reservation online. We made ours for 7PM/19:00, when they open, and showed up a few minutes early, which led to us being seated at one of the best tables with a view of the main Amalfi street below the terrace. The ambiance was wonderful, our servers were friendly and recommended us good wine— and they let us box up the dessert when we were too full to finish the 6-course “Gemma” seafood prix fixe. This is the best meal we had in Italy so far— expensive but well worth the cost. Every dish was amazing. We had the following: - Raw seafood plate (our favorite was the grouper) -Octopus dish with creamy mashed potatoes -Fresh squid ink pasta with tomatoes and octopus in a delicious light buttery sauce -Pasta stuffed with burrata and black truffle in a creamy red sauce -Slice of the catch of the day with potatoes (not pictured, sorry) -Tiramisu (not pictured, but this came with both a pre-dessert and a post dessert: limoncello and other small bites)

I visited this restaurant at 3pm with my mom and her sister. Every employees are so kindly. Some guy can speaking Korean words such as ‘안녕하세요.’ and ‘감사합니다.‘. It seems like to friendly. The mood is great. I love the shrimp tomato pasta. It’s fantastic. Also caprese and sea bass are so delicious too. I felt so happy time here. Thank you so much guys.

We dined at Trattoria Da Gemma in Amalfi and had an excellent meal. I enjoyed the Genovese pasta and tiramisu — both were absolutely delicious. Great food and good service make this spot well worth a visit!

Nice location and good tasting food. It is pricy though. The view is overseeing the street. Service is good.

6 of us went to this beautiful location to have our lunch. The scenery was beautiful and a cosy relaxing place to eat. The rating of the following foods are 1. Salted cod - very good and tasty 2. Mixed pasta with potato and calamari - extremely salty, and very unhealthy to your kidney. Don’t eat !!!!! A waste of money 3. Beef tartar - average 5/10 only 4. Slow cooked beef with Genovese sauce - very good and tasty

The food was delicious, we went with the chef’s recommendation which was very well priced. They allowed us to split it as well which was very kind. The view was amazing, we also had a very delicious glass of wine. The atmosphere was great and the inside was very cute! Indoor, terrace and more bar style seating all available.

Extraordinary view and creative takes on delicious local food. Everything was seasoned perfectly with delicious bread and a great selection of wines by the glass. Would recommend this to anybody traveling to Ravello or anywhere in Italy. Ten out of ten deserves a Michelin star. Perfect.

Although there were empty tables available at 8:45 both in the restaurant and in the pizzeria (we were even asked which area we preferred), the staff refused to serve us when they found out that we (two people) only wanted dessert and drinks. A minimum consumption requirement was never mentioned, which we would have understood and honoured, as we just wanted to enjoy the nice view and an italian desert at the end of the day. Pity.

Hands down the best food we’ve had in Ravello. Service was really friendly, and they accommodated 11 of us very quickly. Pasta with octopus was out of this world! Would highly recommend visiting.

A wonderful view and wonderful food. The dishes are creative and carefully presented. We enjoyed the ambiance and professional services. Slightly pricey but well worth it.

The service is unfriendly. Food average. Menu varieties not plenty. Price normal. Annoyingly, the limoncellos served after diner usually served gratis in all restaurants we have visited, were asked to be paid. Very unfriendly.

I am leaving a five-star review because that is the experience we had! In fairness, we were only there for lunch. But the food was exceptional. The atmosphere is heavenly. And the service left nothing wanting. The risotto in a lemon sauce was a particular standout! Wish we had gone back for dinner! So little time; so little time!

My wife and I came here on night two of our honeymoon and were eagerly awaiting our experience. We have thankfully been able to indulge on multiple occasions at other Michelin star restaurants back in the US, and highlighted this as a moment to look forward to. The view, atmosphere, and staff’s attentiveness and hospitality were top notch, but unfortunately the food fell short. Turning a blind eye to cost, we ventured into the 7-course tasting menu. 3/7 of the courses were simply not good, with dishes that palled in comparison to counterparts on our trip that shined at “lower quality” restaurants prior. I would not recommend spending the time/experience here, as the Michelin rating seemed undeserved, and made us question the accolade. Italy has so much quality food to offer. Explore outside of this option.

It was a very enjoyable experience, I don’t understand why everyone is whining in the comments but I would like to come here again for sure. Salvatore was very nice person and he always kept us in track in the dinner. Also the lady on the front desk was kind enough to help us out with the transportation problems that we were having. I would recommend if you’re visiting Amalfi soon…

For starters, the service is very good, as to be expected from fine dining. The wait staff is on top of everything for the most part and really does take the time to explain each dish. The atmosphere is outstanding. My only complaint is that they do seat everyone on top of you. Considering the restaurant was pretty much empty, it would have been nice to spread out more. There is a phenomenal wine list as well. Plenty of options from each region to choose from. Finally, the biggest disappointment was the food. We went for the full tasting menu which included 7 courses. The started was very good. It was a local Amberjack , done carpaccio style. Great flavor and very complex. Courses 2-4 were either too salty or lacked any distinct flavor profile. The sphagettone was very salty and took away from the herbs and flavors that should have been showcased. The main two dishes (5-6) were pretty good however the lamb was slightly tough. Again there was slightly too much salt. The dessert was a highlight including the basil sorbetto. Overall the experience is pretty amazing. I would recommend to anyone that appreciates fine dining to try it out. When it comes to taste and flavor, you maybe be better at a local trattoria or osteria.

This is our third time here , first time since after Covid. The first times we came here there was a live band playing and the atmosphere was extremely busy and everything seemed to jive perfectly and even had a washroom attendant. Seemed like everything was on point, we always had a meal infront of us and there was always new butter/oils with different bread between meals even complimentary wine pours. This time around while the food was extremely good and as good as the first times we were here, seemed much more limited, there was only bread served to us at the start, which is perfectly okay but often left waiting for food or engagement. We were there at 8pm on a Sunday and it was pretty quiet with only a DJ which was a new and different perspective , a lot less staff and no bathroom attendant. The staff didn’t seem to work as well together as they used to, we often saw them rush each other or it was extremely evident when something wasn’t right, we shouldn’t be hearing the gossip or having to feel the stress from behind the scenes. Perhaps we came on an off day but since we have come here after the Michelin star, things seem abit different quality wise in the experience, they did forget our last dessert but my wife was full therefore couldn’t eat another meal so we didn’t bother. They also were cleaning up the side tables and everything while we were finishing up which made us feel more rushed to get out the door but the food was good once again don’t get me wrong and the staff was nice. Not to put anything down but simply an observation, will have to come by again to truly see

Marco, you made my dinner perfect, the staff was very helpful, the food was well explained from start to finish so I couldn't wait to eat it, the food was delicious. Thank you so much Marco, I'm amazed by your morning life chasing the sunrise. Cheers

We were encouraged to try this place while we were in the Amalfi coast. As it was my birthday I figured we should splurge and give it a go. First the good. The grounds at Villa Cimbrone are stunning. We greatly enjoyed the walk around the area and having a cocktail at the far end near the overlook to the sea. Beautiful as we watched the sun begin to set. Then we made our way to the restaurant. We were early for our reservation so they sat us in the garden bar area. Again beautiful and had a round of wonderful drinks. It was a full seating so we were placed inside but with a view to the outside. The setting was beautiful and the servers were top notch. As others have said, it’s a semi prix fixe menu, with recommended wine pairings. My wife and daughters are fish/vegetarians so they went with the “sea” oriented options. I had a more traditional land-focused option with pasta and meats. Upon the first course arriving, and initial tastes, we knew we could be in for a long night. The seafood appetizers were devoid of any seasoning or flavor, and frankly the shrimp app and the pea-squid app were both borderline inedible. They tasted terribly fishy and unsafe to eat. The server noticed and smartly offered to provide an alternative for the pea dish. The replacement was actually extremely good but our guards were up already. For entrees, the sea bass also had a terrible fishy flavor unbecoming a “fresh” fish dish. Our daughters got the risotto dish and these were ok. My pasta and meat dishes were fine but certainly not exceptional in any way. We expected small portions and delicate flavors for a kings ransom price. We did not expect to have such poorly flavored and virtually inedible dishes. Michelin-starred? Maybe at one point but not for our evening. If you have the money and want an experience feel free to give it a go. But I’d sooner spend my money on any of the many good restaurants all along the coast for far less.

Excellent food, service and ambiance. This restaurant is located in the hotel Marmorata. The lobster is really good. We booked the table in advance. They arranged table separated from the main.

Beautiful restaurant overlooking the sea in the Hotel Marmorata! We stayed at the hotel and ate dinner here our first night on property. It was out honeymoon and the staff made the occasion feel special - they were very welcoming and attentive, and they even started us off with a complimentary glass of champagne! The food is upscale, beautifully presented, and delicious. We loved everything we tried!

Great views and really tasty, freshly made food! The service is great. Professional staff.

Amazing view , food is okay , not overly impressive compared to other places

Where to start !! First when you get in the restaurant it seems that there will be no other people … once you get in you will be welcomed in the most polite way possible from all the staff , ambience is great for a romantic dinner , or family dinner as well ,service expectional and the food was delicous … worth the price , recommended for everybody who wants to have a great experience in costiera …

Just like the stay at Hotel Marmorata, dining at L’Antica Cartiera was a rollercoaster 🎢 experience. Good cocktail 🍸 at sunset 🌅 with a quality spread, followed by an inedible amuse bouche, a $$$ starter that was simply a joke (unripened tomatoes 🍅 paired with one shrimp and one anchovy — I had asked to please leave the swordfish off, but falsely assumed that more of the other items would be added in its place and all that paired with a mediocre mozzarella), but what followed then was a superb risotto which would have earned AC a fourth star for this review, had the contorno not been disappointing again. Beware also that the wine list doesn’t show vintages. If you go, make sure to bring your own bug 🦟 spray.

Overall great food & atmosphere & service Nothing that special but definitely tasty
