Yes, the place is not reasonable but one of the most sophisticated Italian dish you could get. I took my mother for her birthday dinner and we had great time. This may not be every day meal but definitely recommended for special occasion.

The restaurant is beautiful, but the food is awful. You pay for the view. It's so expensive and for what you get, it's so not worth it. We were told to go here because it was the best, and honestly my five year old could cook better food than this. It just did not taste good at all. That being... More

Amazing view, gracious staff, unparalleled ambience. The only thing less than perfect was the food. Not bad but not as exceptional as the price should command. Had dinner several nights later at the Caesar Agustus-both exceptional locations but the food at La Sponda fell short in comparison with a restaurant of similar acclaim .

Not something you will do every night, but well worth the money for our 1 week wedding anniversary! Really friendly staff, particularly the sommelier. Lovely setting and delicious good. Try the tasting menu

We stayed at Le Sirenuse and had dinner at La Sponda our first night there. I was very impressed! The service was fantastic, with a knowledgeable and friendly staff. The food and the wine were excellent! I had the sea bass and it was very good. The hundreds of candles throughout the restaurant create such an intimate and romantic setting.... More

We stayed at Le Sirenuse and had a very nice dinner with some friends. The server was attentive but friendly and the atmosphere was great overlooking the sea. The meal we had was delicious and there were tons of vegetables used in all dishes and they presented a nice crudite as a starter which contained the tiniest, most flavorful asparagus... More

With a beautiful view over Positano,this restaurant offers tasteful dishes and a very caring and efficient service. Try the chicken breast with lemon sauce. Wonderful decoration in the evening with hundreds of candles.

One of 2 Michelin starred restaurants, so expect to pay for it. We had the taster menu of 7 courses accompanied by selected wines. Not big plates of food, but very well prepared and full of flavours.The Olive room is beautiful. The staff were attentive without being overbearing. They would glide by and take a sneaky look at our progress,... More

The food was great, wine (and somelier) was really good, but the service, the music and the entire atmosphere were really outstanding!! Everything is so fantasti in this place and they made it such an expetience to us that the food became just one of the elements of it. We will never forget this diner! It was divine!
