restaurants

There are far better known hotels than Villa Franca in Positano, but it's here you'll find one of the town's foremost gourmets within a terrace dining room overlooking the sea. Cast within a cozy one-room eatery with dramatic terrace perched above Positano, a colorful palette of tan linen chairs and stiffly starched white-stripped tablecloths frame a collection of cobalt blue Amalfi ceramics and tableware. Service is to perfection, as well as the crowd that lures diners from nearby Sirenuse and Santa Caterina.

The Food

You wouldn’t know it staring at the sea, but the Amalfi lies within one of the more fertile growing regions in Italy. And it’s evident from dishes like avocado with red prawns, eggplant gratin with basil pesto and linguine with clams and zucchini. Further roasted squid with seasonal vegetables, veal scallopine, baked fish and mixed grill are best accompanied with the house spaghetti with meatballs.

Last Word

Small hotelier offers formal dining room, poolside grill serving some of the best seasonal food in Positano.
