Restaurant Santa Croce

Ristorante Santa Croce takes a bit of effort. It's worth the work: Leave the car the walk along the pathways and steps to this hillside perch above Positano and find breathtaking views and great food. Located along the famed Pathways of the Gods that winds through the steep hills of the Amalfi Coast, the panorama takes in the rocky coastline and Capri in the distance.

You'll find regional fare including both hill cuisine and seafood, prepared simply according to tradition. They're especially noted for the parmigiana di pesce, layers like eggplant parmesan but made with fresh fish. The baba', a typically Neapolitan dessert, is also quite famous here.
