"This is a very small restaurant located quite far away from the main harbour. Staff were friendly and food was okay, but definitely overpriced. My partner and I were very keen to visit this restaurant after reading some amazing reviews, however, we were disappointed when we arrived. The restaurant’s website claims it to be the most romantic restaurant in Italy and 6th most romantic in the world, however this is a bit of a stretch. The restaurant is very small, accommodating only around 6 tables in total, 5 of which had a sea view. Since we visited for dinner, we couldn’t appreciate the views very much as it was dark outside, but I imagine it to be lovely during the day. The food was pretty good, my partner ordered the lasagne and I had the shrimps (I thought I was ordering prawns as stated on the menu, but I was presented with shrimps). The lasagne was very good, but I was far from delighted with my seafood as it wasn’t as was described on the menu and was simply overpriced. Albeit, I thoroughly enjoyed the tiramisu, and ended up getting another! The website asks for a €40pp deposit when making a reservation, which can be reached rather comfortably, however this restaurant is not ‘high end’ enough to demand such high deposits. There are plenty of other restaurants in Amalfi serving cheaper food, in more convenient locations with no deposit requirement. Overall, I didn’t have a terrible experience, but it did not live up to the standards I was expecting after reading so many raving reviews about it. It essentially felt like I was sat in someone’s living room that had been rearranged to look like a restaurant with average food and cheap table/chairs etc, making this experience far from ‘the most romantic dinner’."

"Ottimo, non bisogna per forza essere critici gastronomici, per affermare che un piatto di tagliatelle con gamberi e pomodorini, è veramente buono,e che dire dei ravioli alla zucca, il dessert poi: millefoglie scomposta ai lamponi... Sublime. Eleganza e semplicità la fanno da padrone al ristorante Raffaele, cibi squisiti e personale sempre sorridenti e gentili. Il menù di stagione è ottimo, con piatti della tradizione rivisitati, e ingredienti freschi. Siamo stati veramente bene, ma la sorpresa finale, è stato il conto: veramente economico per quello che abbiamo avuto, e per il posto in cui siamo. Torneremo di sicuro a Ravello, e la nostra tappa culinaria, sarà il Ristorante da Raffaele .. Grazie Grazie Grazie"

"We were two. we have been conditioned by the average of google reviews, and unfortunately we cannot say we were satisfied. the place has no personality: it is a classic hotel restaurant. beautiful without doubt the terrace with a spectacular view, of which we did not smell because it was a little cold. the staff is friendly and helpful. a little trick instead of the lady who greeted us. on the dishes there is to be disregarded. While lemon pats with shrimps and mussel soup and clams are to judge of good level, not so it was for frying, too greased. even the snacks offered before dinner were not a great deal: They didn't look so fresh. Then I asked if they had any local beer, and they answered me pinions or blue ribbon. The prices are aligned to the area and therefore do not consider them adequate to food and context. Overall, we cannot believe it as an experience that leaves the mark."

"I wish I was exaggerating this was the MOST delicious meal I had in Italy! Not sure why this restaurant isn't Michelin rated! Goes to show the simplicity of Southern Italian cuisine is far better than the most renowned restaurants. I didn't have to reach for any added salt or pepper and for those who know me, that says A LOT. The lemon sauce for the pasta was so addictive that I wish I had more bread to sop it up. Anyway, TLDR you MUST eat here!"
