    Excellent food, service and atmosphere! If you're looking for an amazing meal along the Amalfi Coast, this is a love place to fill that special place in your evening.

    These people have provided the home of my 1st and 2nd favourite steak I've had and favourite pasta as well the aesthetic is amazing as well it's quiet, but not whispering quiet and it's a very good experience I highly recommend this restaurant And thank you for my food!

    Had high hopes and was disappointed. Atmosphere was beautiful. We were here in our first night in Minori. Started off by ordering a bottle of rose and the man poured it and didn't let us sample it and it was a very sweet and cheap rose so we asked to switch to another and they were surprised we wanted a dry rose not sweet. Then ordered a pizza to share and it was very good but came out not hot but it was still good. The crust was very flavorful. Had to flag a waiter to get a refill on a cocktail and some water. Pasta was just fine not that great. I eat my pasta al dente and one of our pastas was still hard not al dente at all but raw. The gnocchi was good the sauce had good flavor but wasn't a traditional gnocchi size it was served more like an appetizer. The seafood pasta was just ok. The homemade noodles were thick fettuccine style and the sauce was pretty good and the seafood was very fresh. Waiter was upset when we told her the lobster linguine was raw but no one ever came to check on us until our meal was over so we couldn't let them know it wasn't cooked properly. They did give us a discount for the pasta being uncooked. The steak we ordered was cooked medium and we ordered it medium rare. Overall I would not go back especially as an American they were not friendly which was upsetting because we went in with such high hopes!

    One of our most favourite restaurants while visiting Italy. The service was excellent. Both times. Servers were friendly and funny throughout the evening. The Pizzas are incredible. The best. Perfectly cooked. The pizzas are a must try. The pastas are also very tasty. Very simple sauces that are delicious. While in Minori, this is the one restaurant you have to go to first. You will want to go again another evening.

    My family visited Giardiniello in the first week of the new year 2019. The interior decor is lovely and the staff was very friendly. The head waiter (or owner?) spoke English well. The food was good, although it didn't blow our socks off. We had ravioli, lobster linguini, steak, a few more seafood dishes I can't remember, french fries, tiramisu, cappuccinos, and Lemon Delight (which kind of seemed like a fancy lemon Twinkie). The cost was a bit steep but we had a nice time there. The advantage that Americans have in Italy when eating out for dinner is that we typically eat earlier than Italians, so the restaurant is usually empty when we arrive (6-6:30p). Italians seem to arrive after 7p for dinner. Always try to make dinner reservations at a restaurant in Italy to ensure they can accommodate your party.

    Fabulous! Toni really made our 2nd night in Minori amazing! It just doesn't get better than this. When you ask the owner what wine you should order, and he picks a 26euro bottle for you, you know your at this right place. We came for lunch, and went back for dinner! Everything we ordered was fabulous... calamari, zucchini flowers, pizza, pasta, caprese and the setting is right out of a Guide of Italy Dining magazine. See ya soon Toni!

    Four of us enjoyed a long lunch at this multi-generation family restaurant. We saw that reviews were good and you couldn't help but want to wander in to the beautiful garden setting. We dined outside. The service was excellent. The food quite delicious. I was so happy that I picked up the bill for our meal (if you knew me...that is not my usual). Really enjoyed the local wines. If you are not familiar with the Campania wines, step out of your comfort zones. A good Aglianico is transcending. Biancolella from Ischia--so nice on a warm day. The staff can point you in the right direction. And when you finish your meal, try the local specialty dessert made from fried eggplant and chocolate. It's rich and delicious. We met the family following our meal. So happy we went!!

    Wow. We sort of accidentally went to this place because our apartment manager suggested it to us. Absolutely spectacular food at a very reasonable price. The homemade pasta with clams and mussels was unbelievable. The fried zucchini blossoms were divine. My kids loved the pizza. They had a great house rosé that was just amazing. The bread basket was nice and the servers were very, very kind. It is the kind of place I would go back to again and again. It was the best meal I've had in Italy. It is one of the reasons we will come back to Minori again and again.

    Best buffalo caprese salad we had in all of Italy! The buffalo mozzarella was so dense and juicy. They also had balsamic vinegar that was to die for. Thicker than your normal balsamic vinegar. I think we could drink it straight out of the bottle. For mains, we had the ravioli which was made with a smoked cheese. It was a different flavor but totally worked. And the tuna salad. The salad was huge and came with tomatoes, carrots, corn, and tuna. I loved the sweet corn on the salad. It added a nice touch. Great service! Our service was attentive and friendly. We would definitely go back!

    We were strolling around looking for a place to eat. Our friends spotted this place and we decided to go inside. The first question was if we have a reservation which wasn't the case but we still got a table... The location is beautiful! The interior is well designed and created a nice atmosphere. We were treated very well. The service was on point (we couldn't even ingrain the wine ourself :-) haha) and everybody was up for a small chat. As we wanted to share everything we order 2 starters (small tuna steaks and fried anchovies), a Pizza for 4 pers. + a bottle of white wine. Everything tasted really good! The tuna was my absolute favorite... I can't even describe the taste, you'll have to experience it yourself. This was one of my fav. places so far for having good dinner.

    Rossellinis - Pre dinner appetizers on the terrace

    Dinner at Rossellinis in the Palazzo Avino Hotel is probably one of the top five meals I have ever…read morehad in my life. We came here for dinner last July with another couple and even though it has been almost a year since we came, I am still thinking about this dinner. When we checked in for our reservation we were led down to the terrace for a glass of bubbly and pre dinner appetizers. While you are enjoying the terrace, they give you the menus and you get to choose from 3 different tasting menus or the option to order a la carte. Our party opted to go the tasting menu route. I am not vegetarian but I don't eat seafood so I often find it easier to go with the vegetarian option which is what I did on this night. After choosing our menu options we were taken to our table overlooking the coast. Every dish that we had from the bread service to the post dessert desserts was absolutely phenomenal. I would be hard pressed to choose a favorite dish because everything was so insanely fresh and flavorful. This is definitely a pricey special occasion restaurant, but it was such an incredible experience in just the most romantic setting possible.

    Location exquisite. Unfortunately the service was poor. Our main waitress was kind & attentive,…read morealthough not as knowledgeable as we expected (e.g. she didn't know where the monkfish was caught or when). Two other assistant waiters were good. The sommelier was dismissive at best. We asked for a 2021 bottle of a particular wine. He brought us the 2022 OPENED and we immediately said that we ordered the 2021. He looked surprised and then came back with the 2021. It was strange. How does the sommelier of a Michelin star restaurant confuse the two? He admitted to us later (after asking us how we knew to choose the 2021) that the 2022 was not yet ready. The portions were beyond tiny. I didn't finish all 6 of my courses but my husband did and he was still hungry. The wine by glass was silly expensive ($40 per stem) but we really wanted red with our lamb which was final course. At one point near the end of the meal the manager walked by and as he KEPT WALKING he asked if everything was good but didn't even stop. Just said it as he was walking by. It was my birthday and we had made reservations in April & my husband told them if was my birthday. They did bring a complimentary glass of bubbly which was nice. But the birthday dessert? Kind of an after thought! The dessert waitress brought a plate with happy birthday written in chocolate and then proceeded to put a few small cookies on the plate. Not even worth taking a picture of. So $800euro later we were completely underwhelmed.
