"I enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Ruccio. It’s a smaller restaurant located right on the water, providing a pleasant ambiance. All the food tasted excellent. I ordered a salad, Gnocchi alla Sorrentina, and chicken in lemon sauce. Everything was very well-prepared and flavorful. The portions were pretty generous and reasonably priced for the area. The service was also very good with the food coming out pretty fast. Nothing beats the atmosphere with the marina right in front of the restaurant and relaxing music being played over the speakers. This is the place to eat when visiting Sorrento."

"A small restaurant right by the Marina. Lovely food and wine. The waiters and waitresses were fantastic during our stay in Sorrento. We had a good laugh with the waiters on our last night and it made us feel like we were part of their family. The food is excellent considering the fair prices. The tomato sauce for the pizzas tastes incredibly fresh as do the other ingredients. The house wine was so good we didn’t bother with any of the others. Order by the bottle! Also a great place to stop for breakfast before beginning your boat tours to the islands."
