Antica Osteria Da Tonino dal 1880 — Restaurant in Naples

This restaurant appealed to us because it looked traditional and warm HOWEVER we had a very disappointing experience and do not recommend it. Firstly, the food lacked taste and seemed to be precooked. They told us to try the meatballs and they were tasteless with a sauce that was clearly bought from a supermarket. The pasta with potatoes was very dull and dry. To finish off, we went to pay and their card reader was broken. If we knew this from the start we would have gone somewhere else to begin with as we didn’t have any cash. They told us to go to a cash point, but I couldn’t take any money out as it didn’t let me. They then walked us to a cash point which was really far away. Overall, it wasn’t just the fact that the food wasn’t good, but that they didn’t even tell us we couldn’t pay by card from the beginning. There are amazing place in Naples but this isn’t...

I have never rated a restaurant so low, and it's not because the quality of the food or the service per se. But because it's the first time in my 15 trips to Italy that I felt taken advantage of. There were six of us there and after ordering a bottle of wine and our main meal, the server asked about appetizers. There was some hesitation and he suggested he would bring, what I understood to be a plate or two of an assortment of appetizers. What he brought was 13 plates of appetizers, comprising 5 different appetizers. Each plate was over 10 euros. The attached photo shows the table after 3 appetizers were brought. I had no idea he was bringing more. Needless to say we could not finish the appetizers and the main dishes were barely touched. The total bill was 290 euros for 6 of us. I felt taken advantage of. I...

Comically bad. Had a good laugh about it after, but would have rather had a nice, edible meal.

We were brought some complimentary arancini. One of them dropped off the plate and the waiter caught it in his hand. He disappeared and came back almost immediately with what was clearly the same plate, just rearranged a bit.

Our mains were a tepid slice of fish with a drizzle of oil next to an unwashed, undressed handful of rocket, and an incredible dry lump of beef covered in what looked and tasted like tinned tomato puree.

The wine was actually fine, and we really needed a drink after that.

One waiter rushed us as much as he could, while another looked genuinely sheepish about the whole affair. No one was surprised when we asked for the bill after each trying a mouthful...
