Rampe S. Giovanni Maggiore, 1, 80134 Napoli NA, Italy

“An exceptional find. Would recommend a visit. Small family traditional restaurant. Could not fault anything. Would recommend reserving a table not to be disappointed.”

Via Lucullo, 100, 80070 Bacoli NA, Italy

“While visiting the ruins of the Roman baths in Baia, I saw, at the southern end of the park, the nice terrace of a restaurant. We decided to have lunch there. This is how we arrived at Locanda Atipica. We were asked if we had a reservation - so if you go there, it's good to book in advance. The interior is quite cozzy, chic. I noticed quite a large number of waiters, so customers are not bored with a long wait, but they need to decide quickly what they want to order. The food is very tasty, full of goodness, well prepared, I must admit. Probably, the restaurant tends to receive Michelin stars, which can explain the small weight of the portions, as well as their "peppery" price. On the negative side, a certain waiter left us with an unpleasant impression, because he took our plates from in front of us while we were still eating... It was as if it was an "invitation" to leave the place as soon as possible. At the allegedly high level, from all points of view, of the restaurant, something like this is unacceptable. Therefore, a more thorough training of the staff is required. Just as it would be desirable to eliminate a practice that is still quite widespread in the region: dishes without a clearly displayed price, which were presented orally by waiters, or written on a blackboard, but still without a price. Beyond the less pleasant aspects, there remains the experience of a chic restaurant, where the food - though spartan in proportion and inversely proportional relative to the price - is delicious.”

Via Pasquale Scura, 52, 80134 Napoli NA, Italy

“Terrific place for local napolitan food, for half the price of more touristic places. Order at the counter and have a seat downstairs to to enjoy a real blast of Italian lifestyle.”

Viale Tigli, 7, 83031 Ariano Irpino AV, Italy

“We were there for a family event. “La Pignata” is a great choice if you want to try some regional dishes presented in a creative and modern way. The menu is seasonal, original and always surprising. Very good option of wines and digestives. We liked it a lot.”

Via Provinciale, 8, 83050 Vallesaccarda AV, Italy

“We enjoyed the full lunch tasting menu, it was a fantastic experience and the service was flawless. The location was enjoyable to drive to, almost hidden in a mountain town. I would not hesitate to repeat.”

Via Madonna della Pietà, 13, 82100 Benevento BN, Italy

Via Ospedale, 16, 83050 Rocca San Felice AV, Italy

“Nice view even though the castle itself isn't very appealing”

Via Laurito, 43, 84017 Positano SA, Italy

“Amazing! Most delicious meal this trip to Italy! We stopped in for lunch, after getting a recommendation to eat from a local shop keeper. Be sure to come before 3pm, or after 7pm— we were able to catch them for lunch on our second attempt! We had the black truffle and pepper pasta, and the ricotta ravioli. Everything was super delicious and a treat for the palate. Service was excellent. We had the ricotta cheesecake for dessert, and it was equally delicious! Thank you!”

Via Iaconti, 2, 84019 Vietri sul Mare SA, Italy

“I would give this restaurant more than 5 stars if I could. It’s one of those places where you immediately feel like family. We were in Vietri for 8 nights and we ate at La Fattoria 3 of the nights!!! The food is delicious. Home cooked and fresh. They always served extra appetizers on the house. We got pasta every night because it’s just so good. The seafood seemed to be their speciality (everyone was ordering the seafood pasta dishes). The house wine is phenomenal. And so affordable!! For three of us with a bottle of wine and way too much food, the bill was never more than €50. Don’t skip the dessert. From fresh fruit to homemade tiramisu, you won’t be disappointed. And the limoncello is the best you will find. It’s homemade and perfection. We bought a bottle to take with us. Oh and the view. It’s gorgeous. Something that you can just stare out at for an entire evening. Even if you have to drive out of the way for this restaurant, do it! You will be grateful :)”

Via Bissido, 18, 84090 Giffoni sei Casali SA, Italy

Via Gioacchino Trezza, 1, 84013 Cava de' Tirreni SA, Italy

“A wonderful experience for lunch or dinner! A very tranquile venue nestled back from the road. Decor is very pretty and the views of the garden are lovely at night. Service was exceptional, very prompt, and friendly. The antipasto was amazing! Offered in mini-courses, each new plate was perfectly prepared and flavorful. This is one of those restaurants that you'll return to time and time again - I know I will!”

Corso Trieste, 285, 81100 Caserta CE, Italy

“Delicious pizza with very kind servers. If you cannot decide which pizza to try, they will help you, and give you a recommendation. Like us, they told us about pizza which was not on the menu. Best idea ever, to try it. Definitely a place you do not want to miss. We visited in October 2023 and would definitely go again. Do not forget a cash for a tips, like us... Till today, we are sorry, that we did not have a cash. They really deserved it.”

“The restaurant is beautiful, the food was delicious, and the service was excellent, really kind and helpful. We’ll definitely return.”

Via Pennata, 50, 80070 Bacoli NA, Italy

“We went to this restaurant because it seemed to have a good reputation. I found it quite hard, because there are no signs to it, it is necessary to ask the residents of the area. We didn't have a reservation, but we were accepted, anyway there were only customers at another table. The first impression was that the fame of the place is given by the splendor of the surrounding landscape: the sea, Cape Miseno, the perspective towards the Sorrento Peninsula and the island of Capri. Magnificent indeed, you can completely forget about food and drink. But it's still a restaurant. What was unexpected was that we did not receive a menu, there was no such thing, the offer was recited to us by a lady who was going to serve us. Anyway, a menu establishes a contractual form with the customer, who can see what he will order, what the product he will swallow is made of, how much it will cost. We couldn't take a whole bottle of wine, unfortunately, because one of us was going to drive the car and the other was having medical treatment. I only asked for two glasses, but the quantity was one of austerity. Beyond these and other small aspects that do not affect the quality of the food, it can be said that it was a good experience. (Another small observation, but valid for many waiters: it would be desirable for the customer not to be asked what he wants to order next, as long as he is still eating. Even less if his mouth is full and it is a bit embarrassing to answer in that posture). We got a number of seafood specialties, different from what we have eaten at other restaurants along the coasts of Italy. I must point out that the pasta, in particular, was fabulous! I also had dessert, so I could compare the Caprese and Millefoglie cakes with those tasted in many other places. The final price was around the anticipated amount, about double that of a common restaurant.”

Via Gravina, 12, 80055 Portici NA, Italy

“Delicious Napolitano pizza with a wide selection of toppings to choose from. You can also customize your own pizza toppings. The dough was incredibly tasty. Appetizers are also delicious!The service was really friendly and prices were reasonable. Highly recommend to all pizza lovers passing through Portici!”

Piazza della Repubblica, 27, 80063 Piano di Sorrento NA, Italy

“The staff is fantastic, helpful and very comunicative. You can see how the pizza is made, and what caught my attention and got my heart is that the Chef that made my pizza looked at his work critically and added and moved couple of …”
