Donna Rosa il Ristorante In Positano

We came in August 2023, 1 week on the Amalfi coast. Best restaurant on the coast. From the cuisine, to the service, to the location.

This restaurant was the only restaurant recommended by our hotel (that wasn’t in our hotel) so we decided to try it. What a memorable dinner! The food was incredible and the staff was just as much so!

The restaurant is high up on the mountain, and our driver (not arranged by the restaurant as some of the reviews state) knew the roads well and got us there quickly and safely. We were seated in a smaller dining room off to the side where it was really quiet. Would’ve preferred to sit in the main dining area. White table cloth atmosphere. Food was delicious, standouts include the lavender panko crusted scallops, sea bass, black truffle tagliolini (a bit under seasoned for my preference, but great truffle flavor), sorbetto di limone. And for my night cap they poured a generous 4 finger pour of 15 year scotch! Service was attentive, but not overbearing.

If you’re in Positano, I cannot recommend a place more for dinner. The homemade pasta with truffle was the best thing I’ve ever eaten, truly amazing food! The service was great and vibe was amazing as well. The homemade dessert was incredible as well. If I’m ever back this will be the first place I come for dinner! I don’t agree with the other reviews that they arrange a free transfer up to their spot we definitely paid a bit to get up and back but it was worth it!

Extraordinary place, with exceptional service and world class food - the lavender scallops were unbelievable! Thanks so much for an unforgettable meal.

I cannot recommend this beautiful place enough... My Mum and I have been in Italy for three days so far and this is the first meal that has blown us away. Freshly cooked by mum & daughter!! ingredients were so delicious and perfectly paired. If you have a chance to eat here take it you will not be disappointed!!!!!

My wife and I had a fabulous experience at the Donna Rosa restaurant. Wonderful food matched by the staff with beautiful wine. All members of the staff created a great ambience in the restaurant and from our table we were able to watch them prepare our food with a smile. If this wasn’t enough I managed to leave a bag under the dining table when we left for our hotel several miles away. We were not relishing the drive back in the morning to retrieve it. Magically, the people at the restaurant arranged for it to be returned to our hotel and it was there, beautifully packaged, when we went down to breakfast in the morning. All in all a fantastic experience, not to be missed. It was the highlight of a great holiday. Thank you Donna Rosa xx

Amazing, cozy Italian restaurant experience!

Fácilmente mi comida favorita de todo nuestro viaje y en las mejores comidas de nuestras vidas. ¡EXCELENTE! Servicio familiar amable con comida increíble. Hice una reserva antes de nuestro viaje basado en una recomendación de un amigo. ¡Así que, tan feliz de haberlo hecho! Trate de conseguir una mesa donde se puede ver la cocina.

Segunda mejor comida que tuvimos en Italia, fuimos allí el 6 de septiembre para la cena. Un restaurante familiar, mamá y una hermana son el chef, papá es el sumiller, y otra hermana hizo todo lo demás. Pasta con trufa fresca es para morirse, también el marisco con pasta de tinta de calamar casera es fenomenal, la lubina es increíble. Y no olvides el desierto, tiramisú y sorbete de limón eran tan buenos! Se nota que cocinan toda la comida con amor y pasiones!! recomiendo encarecidamente este lugar!! Es una caminata para subir a este lugar (en coche, pero ofrecen servicio de transporte gratuito para recogerlo en el centro de Positano).
