Trattoria Da Lorenzo — Restaurant in Scala

DEPOSIT FOR REHEARSAL DINNER & NON-RESPONSIVNESS We booked this restaurant for our rehearsal dinner pre-pandemic for August 2020, then boom the pandemic hits, so we do everything in our power not to cancel our Italian wedding (we are from the US) and postpone to June 2021 in hopes that everything will be better. Fast forward to January of 2021 and with 5 months to go, nothing has changed and our Venue in Ravello cancels our wedding and fully refunds our deposit - knowing that it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to host our wedding there , even after post-poning and trying to help the Italian businesses thru this time. We have requested a refund for our rehearsal dinner deposit MULTIPLE times. We have given fair and far enough notice to be given 1,000 EUROS back.

We started off with a selection of appetizers that the chef put together that allowed us to taste eat different items off the menu followed by a pasta dish with shrimp and a fillet that was wonderful. The lemon cannoli was outstanding!!! A true must…forget hotel dining,...

The dinner and wine choice were good enough. It's a family owned restaurant with homemade food, however everything was lacking something - waiters, though attentive, were out of reach and wouldn't offer to fill you wine, waiting between the dishes were too long, prices were not too friendly, but what really bothered me was the taxi between Ravello (40€ a way!!). I think this place gets a cut (cousin a driver perhaps?). So in all fairness, this does feel in the end like a tourist trap. It's cosy and has panoramic view. However there are improvements to be made if they ever bother (as tourists will come regardless). Just keep in mind taxi cost when thinking of this place as it's not easy to...
