While visiting the gorgeous town of Ravello, my husband and I were going to eat lunch at Restaurant Garden, recommended by Rick Steves, but it wasn't quite open when we got there. The restaurant has a limited menu but a great view of the Amalfi Coast. Lucky for us that it wasn't quite open when we got there because stumbled... More

Spent the day in Ravello and stumbled upon Villa Maria - couldn't go past the views. Chose the rabbit ravioli which was possible the nicest Italian meal I have eaten. Accompanied by a very tasty Rosé of their own making, followed by a lemon soufflé which was to die for. Very happily whiled away a couple of hours reading, eating,... More

The food was very good, yet we felt the wine was overpriced compared to the other restaurants in the area (6 euro for a not very generous glass of wine--when the bottle of the very same wine sells for about 4 euro). The views were pretty--looking towards the valley/ Scala with a peek of the sea. We had a nice... More

On our walk to Villa Cimbrone, we stopped and chatted to a fellow tourist who told us that we must go to Villa Maria, and she proceeded to tell us what she had. Well, that was it. Following our visit to the gardens we stopped in and had lunch. It was superb: Ravioli stuffed with rabbit and a porcini mushroom... More

We were staying at Villa Maria so were fortunate to take breakfast on the lovely terrace! Not wanting to confine ourselves to the hotel we did not eat dinner at the Villa Maria restaurant, although it was highly recommended by fellow travellers. However, we did have a delightful lunch there and after a horrendous experience at another restaurant in Ravello... More

The view is spectacular and ideal for couples and lovers! but the pizza I really think it is a frozen one and you can't deserve it in this part of Italy; the salad slightly better. The staff was great a part from the Maitre tht was taking care only of foreigners, probably because it is easier to cheat them compared... More

Villa Maria has very delicious food in a setting which is breathtakingly beautiful. I had the chestnut gnocchi with porcini mushrooms -- wonderful. The prices aren't inexpensive, but is a wonderful place for a special meal.

We were in Ravello on Easter and stumbled upon this restaurant while walking through the village. It was a fabulous find!!! The food included on the fixe prix Easter brunch was excellent. The wait staff were efficient and courteous. The view from the terrace was superb. It was a terrific way to end our trip to the Amalfi coast.

We arrived there without expecting too much. But, at the end, we spent something about three hours. I suggest to eat a lemon soufle as a dessert.
