Bar Orlando — Restaurant in Massa Lubrense

Lovely food, nice atmosphere. Good service from the waiter who took our order. However, it was soured when another waiter came with the bill. He appeared to make it up on the spot. No itemised bill.

When we asked for bread with olive oil and salt, the waiter called his mother, and she brought us olive oil she made herself. It felt like home — I don’t know how else to describe it. 🥹

Highly recommend the fried calamari, anchovies, seafood pasta, and definitely the mussels (order one portion per person...
