A Sorrento institution since 1947, serving simple local seafood and pasta right on the water in Marina Grande.

Da Emilia is not somewhere we go for polished service or innovative cooking. We go because sitting beside the water in Marina Grande, surrounded by the noise and energy of the old fishing village, feels quintessentially Sorrento. The cooking is straightforward, portions are generous and the whole experience is wonderfully informal. Recent online reviews are more divided on consistency and value than its legendary reputation might suggest, so we would keep the recommendation focused on atmosphere and traditional simplicity, rather than presenting it as Sorrento's best gastronomic meal.
Via Marina Grande 62. Walk from Sorrento's historic centre through the old gateway and down to Marina Grande. The return walk is uphill.
