I came here twice this month to do olive oil tasting and then a wine tasting with my family and friend! We loved the olive oils and ordered a bunch to send back home as well as some of the other products such as balsamic vinegar. The wine tasting upstairs was amazing thanks to Tony! He showed us four wines that we loved and also served us food to go with them. Such an amazing experience, and we can't wait to go back!

We had such a lovely experience here! We had stopped by here with our bike tour in the morning for olive oil tasting. The tour of the farm and production was very informative and a very scenic area. The tastings were great also! Lots of high quality oils and varieties.
We returned in the afternoon for a pizza making class with Claudio! The class was so much fun and was definitely a highlight of our visit to Sorrento and the area! The staff were so friendly and really made our visit very special. Tony was such a delight and offered his expertise on the wines and gave impeccable service. We highly recommend going here and you won't be disappointed. We will definitely go back there the next time we're in Sorrento.

The Amalfi Coast has a reputation for being expensive, full of tourists, and beautiful - our experience at Gargiulo was just beautiful. While in Sorrento for our honeymoon, we did a cooking class at Frantoio Gargiulo and were blown away by the hospitality and kindness of Tony, Claudio, Chef Leandro, and their wonderful team. The food was delicious, the wine incredible, and the property is just stunning. It is so clear that the Gargiulo team loves making their guests feel special and teaching the more delicious and delightful points of fame to table cooking in Italy. Will I be able to replicate the gnocchi at home? It will only be thanks to my own error. Will I be giving multiple bottles of their locally made olive oil for Christmas? Absolutely.
Truly a wonderful experience and I am so grateful we did it. We were grinning ear to ear from start to end. Thank you to Tony and the team for giving us such a beautiful experience. Grazie Mille!
P.S. try the pumpkin!! Incredible!

I do not recommend having lunch at Garguilo's restaurant in Sant' Angelo (Sorrento). They overcharge tourists for the bad service they provide, without telling them the value of the dishes.
We were greeted by a Garzon who pointed out that there was no menu, that the menu was him.
When we asked him about the prices of the dishes, he told us not to worry, that it would not be expensive at all. We told him that we had a limited budget for lunch, and he told us that there would be no problem with that.
Since there was no menu, he offered us what he had, two pasta dishes with tomato sauce, something simple (gnocchi with tomato sauce and sorrentinos with tomato sauce).
After that, we asked for the bill.
The Garzón arrived immediately with the machine to charge us 80 euros, without any detail of the lunch that would show the price of each dish.
When we asked him why the bill was so high, he pointed out that each dish cost 25 euros, plus two antipasti (we had only ordered 1).
After talking to him, he asked us how much we wanted to pay for lunch, which shows a lack of seriousness of Garguilo, not having a menu and also a waiter who charges what he wants for lunch. Having the clear intention of charging an excessive price for a simple pasta with tomato, which had no meat or any ingredient that would justify 25 euros per plate, only pasta and tomato sauce.
Finally he charged us 70 euros and not satisfied with that, we pointed out that it was still excessive so he went to a neighboring room and took out 10 euros that he gave us in cash. Demonstrating the lack of seriousness that Garguilo has to treat their customers.
We have been several weeks in Italy, in different cities and we know how much a plate of pasta costs on average.
This is why we do not recommend any tourist to go to this restaurant or to try their oils, as we want to avoid having a bad experience like us.
In Sorrento you can eat well and with the price of each dish in sight, not this kind of poor quality local services.

My Husband and I had one of the best experiences here on our trip to Italy. We began with a phenomenal olive oil tasting. The olive oils were delicate and of the finest quality. I think we sampled over 15 oils. The orange and lemon were unlike anything I had tasted. They were so generous.
After the olive oil tasting we enjoyed a luscious lunch overlooking the cliffside farm and the sea. The outdoor dining area was beautiful. Ou r meal included fresh marinated vegetables, bread, and a perfectly al dente zucchini pasta. And of course vino! I still dream of the lemon dessert. We concluded with sipping the best limoncello from Sorrento. If you don’t go on this experience you are truly missing out. It is well worth a side trip.
Gorgeous setting. Fantastic food. Our waiter Tony, was knowledgeable about wine and informative about everything being grown on the farm. A farm to table meal that is one of our best memories.

So happy that we stumbled upon this experience & that we were able to book at the last minute. We did a quick tour of the grounds, followed by an olive oil tasting and the best lunch/wine tasting! The food was delicious, the views were incredible & our server, Tony, was a joy! Thank you! Definitely a highlight of our time spent in Sorrento!

This is an excellent experience! Really worth it!!!! You learn and relax at the same time as the whole process takes you to the traditional way of cooking in southern Italy. We did the pizza class and the olive oil tasting. We made our own pizza they taught us how to make the yeast and all the ingredients!! The staff is incredibly polite!! The space is clean and new. Must experience!!!

We went here for wine tasting and meal. We tried 5 of their wonderful olive oils. Tony was the best waiter! The view was wonderful, and the wine and food were delicious! We had to purchase some of both to take home. We highly recommend it (and Tony as a waiter!)

After a short tour (Very interesting) we had an amazing selection of fabulous olive oils we tasted. Many were the best we have ever had (we've tasted LOTS of EVOO) We shipped them, prices were excellent, in fact, later in the day, we saw some of the same ones we purchased for sale in a store were priced 2x what we paid, so we are especially happy. Will also give as gifts. Some of our favorites: 1-Onion, 2- Curry, 3- Rosemary 4- White Truffle and my husband also liked the peppery ones.

We are staying near to the the train station in S. Agnello - can we walk to you? If not is it likely to be an expensive taxi ride?
Are you open on Saturday and Sunday and if so what times can we come?
Written 15 July 2016
If you call them for a tour they will send a taxi. We stayed the next town over and it was only 30€. The driver even waited for us while we toured and tasted (at least an hour).
We actually had our hotel call for us so nothing was lost in translation.
I don't think it would be walkable to get there from anywhere in town.

What is the best/easiest way to get to you from Hotel Del Mare in Sorrento? Is there a bus that goes to your place? Approximately how much would a taxi cost? And would we be able to get a taxi back to Sorrento afterwards?

To come here with a Bus, take in Sant'Agnello however, but I don't know the time. If you want we have a trasfert and coast 30 Euro. (going and return). Do you want to book? The tour is free and long around 1 hour
From Sorrento/Us take 15 minutes around of car.

Hi,
Our mill is far about 2 km from Hotel Caravel, but it's up on hill, and weather is very hot this part of year. It could be easier come by taxi.
I hope to see you soon.
