3.5 this restaurant had a nice ambiance with the tables nicely spread out and noise levels were good. The staff were attentive. Food was very nice albeit a little small on the serving size. The lamb shoulder was very nice but it was $35 for a small amount of meat. You definitely need a couple of sides. Overall though probably one of the best restaurants in Sorrento and I would definitely g back.
Disappointing!
I cannot believe that a beautiful restaurant with cozy and classy interior isnt fully packed over lunch time on the main strip in Sorrento. All I could think of was that Gordon Ramsay should have been there with Kitchen nightmares as the restaurant itself was so beautifully set up.
The staff: not enthusiastic and extremely slow. I would have loved a little more love to make me feel welcome but I guess that should have been an indication. They forgot the bread we ordered with our meals and my wine and it took ages for someone to take our order even though it wasnt packed.
The food was flavourless and bland. I could have easily cooked their daily special myself and for the prices it was certainly in no relation to what I was expecting. The chicken looked unappetising and the chicken breast we ordered had bones in it – thats a first. The veggies were steamed with no seasoning, oil or dressing and the salad could have not been more boring if they tried.
Definitely do not recommend and its time to call Ramsey as this could be a gold mine.
Steak was great and the pavlova was the best Ive ever had! Why the 3 rating? I would go 3.5 if I could. The service was not very friendly. We felt judged on all our choices. And I mean all our choices. Espresso martini is a dessert not a starting cocktail to dont dismiss the top on the list wine because it is on top because we chose a wine from NZ instead of the Elba branded wine. We were questioned why only 3 were having oysters about 4 times it was ridiculous to the point we should have said they were allergic. The oysters were not the best either- probably spawning. There was only 1 pasta choice which was gnocchi. The pt and brioche was dry and lacked salt. He then told us to have broccoli as the steak only comes with the sauce. We insisted on choosing our own sides which made his eyes roll. We were offered another bottle of wine before we could say no and just like that, the bottle was opened with only 20 mins until closing. We left half the bottle upon leaving. Service by the female waitress was great however and wished she could have served us instead of the two older male waiters. It was so bad it was comical how bad it was. We even had plates and drinks removed before it was finished. We wont be back. $110 per person including drinks.
