Trattoria San Gennaro

A great place with delicious food and an amazing view. Special thanks to the staff — everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. We had the tomato soup, pasta, fried sea bass, and the lemon sorbet. Highly recommended for a relaxed and atmospheric dinner.

Hands down the best restaurant in Praiano. A local recommended it, and it exceeded every expectation. The terrasse is massive and beautiful, photos don’t even do it justice. The staff is out-of-this-world kind, respectful, and make you feel like family. I went two nights in a row with my family, and if we had stayed longer, we’d have gone even more. The food was incredible, the prices were totally worth it. We had such a great time, they even brought us a round of shots at the end of the night. I loved the outdoor fridge with the homemade desserts inside (order them ALL, I’m telling you!). To top it off, they even partner with a shuttle car service to bring you home after dinner if you don’t feel like walking. Unbelievable service, stunning place, I couldn’t recommend it more.

Great little hidden gem. One of the best views sat outside looking back towards Positano. Food was delicious and good service

Good, reasonably priced food with a view. What more could you want? As a bonus, the staff was very friendly with us The portions were definitely larger than expected given the normal portion sizes in Italy, but it was not unwelcome.

Lunch with a View at Trattoria San Gennaro, Praiano While exploring Praiano, Italy, we came across Trattoria San Gennaro, tucked near a charming church with a breathtaking view of the Amalfi Coast. We were looking for a quick lunch with scenery, and this spot delivered. I ordered the octopus salad , fresh and light, while my husband went for the four-cheese pizza . A note for travelers: the pizza includes blue cheese , so if that’s not your favorite, be sure to ask for a substitution. Our meal was simple and satisfying, but for me, the highlight was the view and the melon liqueur (similar to limoncello)—so refreshing and unique. Pro Tips for Travelers: • Best for a quick lunch with a gorgeous view • If ordering pizza, clarify your cheese preference • Don’t miss the house-made melon liqueur—it’s a gem Pros • Lovely coastal views • Great location near San Gennaro church • Fresh seafood & traditional pizza • Local liqueur was outstanding Cons • Pizza comes with blue cheese (not for everyone) • Simple Octopus salad (not grilled) with lemon juice as dressing (lack flavoring.) Trattoria San Gennaro may not be fancy, but with its coastal views, fresh bites, and unforgettable melon liqueur, it’s a charming stop in Praiano.

Beautiful meal, super friendly staff and a warm and inviting location in Praiano. We even received a complimentary shot of limoncello as a surprise :) definitely recommend the gnocchi and eggplant pasta! Great for a casual lunch with an unbeatable view!

Food was very yummy and fresh. Lasagna tasted like a hug. And finally a perfect aperol spritz

Great meal, beautiful view and free parking! This is a beautiful restaurant with an amazing view of the Amafil coast towards Positano in the distance. When we arrived, all the tables by the balcony were occupied but the staff were super friendly and offered to move us to a table by the balcony once one became available. The restaurant also overlooks a very old church with the bell going off regularly, and the locals socialising outside the church, it is truly a serene and authentic Southern Italy experience. The food were delicious and well portioned. All the seafood also tasted fresh. On top of it all, the restaurant has its own free parking for customers! (But be aware that the parking is down a narrow-ish alleyway with a 20° slope. So if you are in a big car or not as confident a driver, it might be best to park elsewhere in the town.) Overall this restaurant offers a great experience for tourists travelling through the Amalfi Coast. So good, in fact, that we even went back again a couple nights later!
