First time sitting at a café, that is basically open to the people walking by right in front of you. This was definitely not our preferred way to eat. I had the cannoli which was OK. They had a special lasagna. Unfortunately, it was extremely overcooked. We didn't realize that this very popular little tavern, was to panhandler basically asking for money going from table to table very disruptive. It's sort of canceled out the dining experience. We did, however, enjoy the chef coming out to sing a little bit. And there was a House doggy named Nino. That was very cute. This was more like entertainment, so they really wanted us to eat and pretty much go get up and let the next people sit down. read more

I have to say, this place truly became like family to us. From the very first time we ate here, the food was beyond spectacular. But what made this place even more special was the people. Every time we walked past the restaurant while exploring town, the owner remembered us, greeted us, and made us feel so welcome. So of course, there was only one place we wanted to spend our last night -- right back here, enjoying the BEST food one more time. We came for the food, but we're leaving feeling like we gained family. We will absolutely be back someday!

Expect to stand in line, but worth the wait. Friendly and family run service. The meatballs were so light and flavorful. Highly recommend! The Arribiatta had just the right amount of spice and the gnocchi was excellent. We saw many plates of lasagna being served and it looked delicious! Quaint interior and slightly intimate ambiance. read more

Was in Italy in September 2025. Azz! is located on the main street in Sorrento, Italy. If you happen to be visiting Sorrento for a few days and are not sure where to eat, this place is a MUST! The food is fresh, homemade, and made with care and love. The owner is really kind and made sure my parents and I were taken care of. There is a bit of a wait in line if you're going to have dinner here, and that really speaks to how good the food is here. I had the Parmesan Alfredo pasta, my mom had the Gnocchi (which I typically don't eat, but specific dish was just soooo delicious!) and my Dad had a fish dish of some sort that I can't remember. It was all really tasty and I wish I had taken a picture of the food! We were seated outside and the vibe makes you feel like you're eating a home cooked meal. read more

One of the best pizzas we've had in the central sorrento area. I had their lasagna which was so tasty. There's a dog named nino belonged to the owner who was the friendliest dog ever. There's a short story about this the menu read more

Wonderful food and family! It's clear why they have a line waiting every night and a near perfect score. The food is amazing and authentic. The quality and service only comes when delivered by the owners which is exactly the case here. The owner/husband is the chef. The server is the owner/wife. They have a few additional staff, but their hands are involved in everything and it shows. I had the fortune of sitting after hours with the owner and smoking a cigar as we talked about family, food and growing up in Sorrento. He's amazing and his love for the area, service and cooking shows in his food. read more

So worth the wait! Great food and wonderful service! The Cacio de Pepe and bruschetta were amazing! I don't remember what my husband ordered, but he loved his meal as well! read more

We went on the earlier side, and I'm glad we did. The line got sooo long after we got seated. But once the food started coming we understood why. Everything was delicious. We ordered pizza, lasagna, meatball, ravioli, bruschetta, burrata, and T-bone. Everything was delicious. The only thing that wasn't perfect was the T-bone that needed a little bit of salt and was a bit overdone for my husband's taste. Otherwise, we were extremely happy to have dined there. The staff was also very kind, and their mascot, Nino, was pretty funny! read more

We went there with a large group a d they were able to find a way to get us in even though we had to split up. The food was absolutely amazing. I don't know if this is true authentic or a local favorite but I do know the people working there are hard working, salt of the earth folks that make delicious food!! read more

The food was delicious, quaint little restaurant. Loved the little dog wearing a "don't feed me" sign.

Azz! Is a small restaurant just off the main drag through the town of Sorrento, Italy. We'd heard a lot of positive things about the place, so we decided to go and check the place out for dinner. When we got there, we realized how small it was, and there was already a small line outside, waiting to be seated. It's rare that I'd line up for food, but I was on holiday and was keeping my initial chances of food in Sorrento high for quality. After a 15mins wait, myself and my two sons were seated. We browsed the menu, which was small but had decent variety. As we looked through the choices of food, a small dog was mulling around the restaurant. It had a sign on it, which said not to feed it (still not sure if it was the owners dog, or some rando off the street). My boys loved trying to get its attention as it passed near our table. In the menu, it pointed out that everything is cooked fresh, so there'll be a longer wait than most places. Please look elsewhere if you want something quick. I'd take that as a good sign. I ordered the Pappardelle ai Funghi Porchini, basically a very wide, thin pasta with a mushroom sauce. One of my boys ordered the Margherita pizza, the other a simple grilled chicken breast and side potatoes. I was surprised at the punch of the mushroom flavour of the sauce, and the pasta was cooked just right. I was very tasty. The son who ordered the Pizza, really enjoyed his, too. Coming to the end days of our trip, he recalled this as being the best pizza he had ever tasted We enjoyed Azz! so much, that we returned again a few days later. It was the only restaurant that we visited twice during our stay in Sorrento. The second time I tried the Penne all'Arrabbiata...which was tomatoey and spicy sauce with penne pasta. Another simple, but very tasty dish. I'd suggest getting there early in the day, say 3 or 4 for dinner, as it can get busy from 6pm onwards. Well worth a visit, and merits it's good scores and reviews. read more

We have been in Italy for 10 days and we have eaten some good Italian food but this was by far the best. I just had a simple penne and red arribiatta sauce but it was absolutely perfect. My little boy gave his chicken a 10 out of 10 and ate the entire thing which is unheard of. What an amazing meal! read more

Food and service were great. They make you feel at home and part of the family. A good spot to have dinner.

My husband and I returned to Sorrento from a long day trip. We were tired and didn't have any reservations. We stumbled upon this quaint little restaurant that had seating indoors and outdoors. That sat us right away. We shared our meal because we had a big lunch in the Amalfi Coast. I ordered the Italian Vine tomato soup and it was delicious. The flavor of the tomatoes with the mixture of seasoning and cheese was just what I wanted. We shared the meatballs which were flavorful and tender. The sauce that covered them was absolutely wonderful. I ordered the Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe. The sauce was rich and delicious my husband had the lasagna and it was so good. Sometimes you can get lasagna and it's dry. Not this place! I would definitely come back to this place. The service was great and the restaurant was a great find. read more

Just arrived in Sorrento and our first meal was here and honestly, I don't know how we could eat anywhere else. Service was absolutely wonderful, ambiance was extremely charming and the food was the best we've had in Italy during a trip through Venice and Rome. I got the Napoletana and it was perfectly balanced with a nice crispy crust. We also got the Caprese Salad ,which was plenty enough to share for our family of 4 and my son licked the plate! Must try if you're in Sorrento! Highly highly recommend! read more

It was a short wait in line to get a table but for a very good reason. Very tasty, very well prepared and served food, big selection of drinks and very affordable prices.

Excellenr food. Highly recommend. Home cooked italian and the sweetest guard miniature you ever ssw.

I am Italian and very picky about my food. Azz! did not disappoint, the lasagna was incredible good size portion and good price. The business is family run and you can tell they put love and pride into their food. We decided to go back for another meal to try some other items on the menu as all of the things coming out of the kitchen looked delicious! read more

Great food! Really authentic and flavorful. And great service. We went back multiple times during our stay in Sorrento.

If you are looking for an authentic Italian restaurant, this is the place to go! My partner and I waited outside for about 35 minutes for a table, it was fun to stand outside and watch people enjoying themselves in the beautiful city of Sorrento. Sharing laughs, wine, great food and company. The restaurant also has a dog that is super cute and is the neighborhood watchman. I had the vegetable lasagna and my boyfriend had the meat lasagna. It was the best lasagna I have had in my entire life and the best food on my Italy trip! It was cooked perfectly: soft, cheesy, and it had just the right amount of sauce. My boyfriend loved his dish too and we both wished we could have an entire tray of it. For dessert he had the tiramisu and I had an eggnog chocolate cream. They were both delicious! I love the ambience, food and cute dog. This is a great place for a date night, or to spend time with friends and family. I highly recommend this place to go eat if you are in Sorrento. Even if you are just passing by to use the ferry, I suggest staying and going here. It is worth it! read more
