Trattoria da Emilia
What the experts agree on
Waterfront gem in a restored boat shed serving pristine seafood pasta with house wine. Expect summer crowds and casual vibes, but the cliffside setting and honest cooking make the wait worthwhile.
“Our favorite place to eat in Sorrento, this moderately priced trattoria offers informal dining in an ancient boat shed in Marina Grande, complete with an outdoor terrace on a wooden pier.”
– Frommer's
