La Tagliata

We went to La Tagliata for dinner and it was incredible from start to finish. They picked us up in the town center and drove us up, up, up to the top of the hill, the view at sunset was absolutely breathtaking. The food just kept coming, and every dish was amazing. It’s a true family-owned restaurant that’s been around for over 50 years, with grandma and mom still cooking in the kitchen, you can taste the love in every bite. The atmosphere was warm, authentic, and unforgettable. 10/10 recommend, it is an absolute must when in Positano!

Amazing food and views! Everything tasted homemade and incredibly fresh, straight from their farm. Come hungry because they serve a ton of food, honestly more than you can finish, but every bite is packed with flavor and quality. They provide free transport up from the Positano city center, which is super convenient since it’s high in the hills. It’s a busy spot with fast service and bright lights, so don’t expect a cozy or romantic atmosphere. They also prefer cash and don’t accept Amex. Definitely worth it for the food alone with generous portions, authentic flavors, and a true Positano experience.

The food was fresh from the garden prepared by “mama” in back. Served family style. The entire dinning experience feels like your Nonna and cousins are treating you to a special meal. Food is amazing. Service is stunning and the atmosphere is without compare One of our group is gluten free. Their knowledge of the food and what was safe was perfection. They prefer cash if possible but will take card. We are here several times during our stay and would come back just to spend time here again.

Going to La Tagliata topped off an incredible trip to Positano! This is the true meaning of a family owned restaurant. Everything was grown in the garden, and tasted delicious. Choice of red or white. The views were incredible, one of the best along the whole of the Amalfi. The staff were also very friendly and accommodating. Also the most affordable restaurant we went during our stay there. I'll definitely be recommending this to all my friends and family that visit the region.

10/10 experience!! We had our vow renewal reception at La Tagliata and it was one of the most astounding and exceptional culinary experiences of our lives. Treating our guests (all from the US) to a homemade, homegrown, authentic 6 course Italian meal was something I’ll never forget. They raved about the food and the friendliness of the staff for the rest our trip. Grazie mille!

Unique dining experience. True farm to table. Pasta variety all made on site. We payed 60 euros/pp and it was a 5 course meal ( fixed) . They kept bringing food.. ambience was awesome. View from top of positano.

We dined at La Tagliata and opted for the €40 per person light meal menu, and honestly, it was anything but light — in the best way possible! The meal included three generous courses, with an amazing variety of appetizers (so many options!), a delicious selection of pastas, and to top it off, a bottle of wine of our choice was included. In a place like Positano, €40 for this kind of quality and quantity is an absolute steal. The flavors were authentic and comforting, and everything felt homemade with care. The views and atmosphere only added to the experience.

Big Letdown Our dinner at La Tagliata was a major disappointment, especially after reading so many glowing reviews on Google. My wife had high expectations, but they faded within minutes of sitting down. The presentation of the food was the first red flag — plates arrived looking unappetizing, almost like something thrown together without care. Unfortunately, the taste didn’t improve the experience. The dishes were bland and unrefined, far from the authentic, flavorful Italian cuisine we expected in Positano. What surprised us even more was the overwhelming quantity. For just the two of us, they served enough food to feed a small group, as if piling on portions could make up for the lack of quality. Quantity should never replace quality, and in this case, it felt excessive rather than generous. I don’t enjoy leaving negative reviews, but I feel compelled to warn others. Positano has many truly excellent restaurants — sadly, La Tagliata is not one of them. Save your time and money for a dining experience worthy of this incredible town.
