This is a beautiful bar and restaurant in the heart of Vico Equense. We went there as a group, a couple of times, last July (I thought I uploaded this then but there was a tech error), the first time for lunch and the second for drinks, to watch the England vs Switzerland game. The food was delicious, all made with quality and fresh products, the drinks were strong and tasty. The owner is the best, very friendly, really lovely, funny and entertaining man with a lot of stories to share about the Italian national team (some of the footballers are from the area and he knows them!). He knows the area very well, so it was good to get some tips on what to do, weekly local market etc. This is definitely a welcoming place, in a central location, great for drinks and food! All dishes tasted delicious and you may want to try: gnocchi alla sorrentina (very very tasty) and their various bruschette. Drinks: Limoncello spritz, Hugo, Falanghina and Aperol Spritz. They also sell Limoncello in really lovely bottles and it tastes great. We will definitely...

Oh, then the wife/owner shows up shouting at my Mrs saying "how dare you raise your voice in my bar"?? Are these guys for real?
They would probably mug you if they could.
Chips were s* frozen ones too
Edit: the owner has replied to this review still blaming it on the customer card, when clearly there was no issue as we used the same one to pay. Clearly they don't want to take responsibility for their downfalls, and have no intention of...
Read morewish i could rate it even less than 1 star. ordered what i expected to be a delicious caprese salad. it was not. tomatoes were bland and when we tried to tell the waiter he claimed it was just "how sorrento tomatoes should be". i had sorrento tomatoes just the other day in sorrento and they were full of flavour and colour, not pasty and bland. waiter was very rude to us too. our meals also did not come together, my salad came first, followed by 2 of the pasta dishes, with our final 3 carbonaras arriving much later than the other dishes. after the carbonara had arrived, it was excessively peppery, as in cough-your-head-off peppery. had to take many drinks to stop myself coughing. also took very long for waiter to get us our bill and allow us to pay. would not recommend...
