We checked into our hotel, walked through the village and the strolled the cliff path to LO Guarracino. Sitting next to the railing with great views, enjoying chilled local white wine, the best caprese salad of our trip and perfect pizza margherita. We were well taken care of by our charming host and hostess and wished we had gone back... More

We went to this place to have lunch and what a surprise! We got a perfect table in front of the sea...the view is worth each euro. We ordered a nice white wine with sea food pasta...just fantastic! Great service, food and fair price for Positano stands.

This is a tough place to find, you walk and walk, past wonderful aroma from other restaurants and still you walk. It is so worth the trip! It is called the "most beautiful pizzeria in the world" and I do believe that to be true. The food was fabulous! We had pizza, of course, but we had an amazing salad... More

Not overly expensive and away from the hustle and bustle. The seafood pasta was outstanding but my pasta with lemon sauce was a bad choice. There was nothing wrong with it but just not to my taste. Would definitely go again and pick something different. Staff were friendly and helpful.

We went here for dinner, based on a hotel recommendation. I should have checked on Tripadvisor or yelp (as I usually do, but was overruled by traveling partners). Lovely location, but uninspired food and service. There are many better options in Positano

Vacationing in Positano, we stopped by Lo Guarracino for lunch. While it was 5 minutes off the beaten track, it turned out to be a good idea. We had fresh fish, nice local wine and pizza and were delighted. The view is beyond spectacular and the food matched it. There were over 15 restaurants on the Positano beach....haven't tried any...

Based upon a review in one of the guide books, we trekked to this out-of-the-way restaurant about five minutes from the beach in Positano. The view of the Bay is fantastic, but the rest is disappointing. The food was mediocre except for the pasta al limone. The service was abrupt and rushed. There was no ambience to speak of and...

Great location with fantastic view around the corner from the main tourist area of Positano . You can hear the waves on the beach below. Food great, seafood salad to start was perfect for sharing. Mussels with tomato sauce and spaghetti vongole to die for. Desert lemon tirimasu yum! The jug of house white was also lovely. Great value for... More

I have had many daydreams of this restaurant! It is beckoning me to come back.....the coastal path to find this hideaway spot is a big draw, but the fresh seaside fare and pizza oven we're over the top. Caprese salad, margharita pizza for the kids, house wine, fresh fish, gelato......we sat along the rail facing southwest towards the beach and... More
