The combination of the Bay of Sorrento and Mt. Vesuvius made for stunning views. The ambiance could not have been more perfect. The service was good but relatively standard. The waiter took our drink and food orders, brought bread to the table, and served our meals. My pasta dish was flavorful and a decent portion. Honestly, I ordered so much pasta and pizza in Rome and other places throughout Italy that the experiences started to blend. However, the red sauce was perfectly seasoned, and the pasta was the perfect al dente. If I had to choose one thing that I most enjoyed about the restaurant, it would be the location first with the food as a close second.

Vesuvius and parts of the coast jutting out in the background. Especially beautiful at night when the distant lights are shining. Also, there's live music nightly! For our meal, we were served burrata, bruschetta, and some kind of fried croquette (couldn't make out what it was); everyone else got grilled eggplant, too, but my plate was missing it. Then we moved on to the ravioli and risotto, both delicious, but very rich. For the entree, we had a pork filet with a mushroom gravy that was exceptionally tender, potatoes, and baby carrots. It was very tasty but a lot of food! Then dessert came; it was the limoncello sponge cake dessert that seems to be very popular in Sorrento. The meal was followed with a shot of limoncello, but I didn't partake; everyone else said it was really strong! I would say dinner was good. Would definitely have liked to try their fresh seafood instead, though.

The restaurant is in a back alley and made for a private experience. We had three servers taking care of us and making sure we were enjoying our dining experience. The focaccia was better than any I have had. It had fresh veggies and the olive oil blended the flavors perfectly. I had the lasagna, not as good as mine at home but delicious. My daughter had the special, a lemon shrimp pasta. She said it was heavy on the lemon but fresh and delightful. I would recommend the restaurant if you have time to slow down and enjoy your food. We didn't have dessert because the serving size was just right.

To make it worse the manager tries to argue that you ate both and need to pay. Challenging since all the staff saw the waiter take it back. The waiter then corrected the bill, but the damage was done. Being insulted and called a liar is poor hospitality. Simply avoid, the positive reviews must be fake. A table of 4 next to us got up after no one went to them, after waiting for 15-20 minutes. They went across the street- wish I did the same. Incredibly awful experience. From food, to rude and ignorant staff, to bugs all over. A must miss place.

The sushi and sashimi taste good and the cut rolls are pretty good. The prices are high for sushi but this seems to be par for the course in Europe. The reason I'm giving this place three stars instead of four stars is their service for the non-sushi food is very slow. We ordered noodles and that took over an hour where is our sushi arrived in about 15 to 20 minutes so we are waiting around for a very long time being told that the food was almost coming. Needless to say this kind of ruined the meal.

It's a great bar food, but I wouldn't go here for regular dinner. It is a great place to meet up with friends or make friends. And the vibe is super cool. The apple crumble drink is AMAZING. The staff is nice, the prices are okay and an easy spot to spend a few hours. Definitely recommended to go earlier in the evening when you can drink and nibble and still be ready for the delightful Italian food later in the evening like the Italians do!

We stayed at Hotel Cesare Augusto while in Sorrento, Italy…read more I was skeptical at first to book here since it was outside the old town, but when we got there, I was completely surprised at how close the hotel was to the main town, approximately 5 minutes from the elevator or stairs that would take you to Sorrento beach and port. We booked a room with a sea view balcony. We found our room spacious and clean. The hotel serves a sumptuous buffet breakfast in the main dining room. We had a lovely stay here. The staff are helpful and friendly. The hotel is walking distance to many restaurants and close to the port if you are planning on island hopping. This hotel is highly recommended!

Nothing special about the pizza in particular. Found it to be a bit doughy. Yes, I like the Neapolitan pizzas. We took the Cheese and tomatoes back to the hotel. It's is apparent that many other tourists dine here as well. Two tables were filled with American tourist ordering Hamburgers with fries. Not here to rave about the food at Bar Ercolano nor the service. You need to flag down wait staff for service as well as to get the check. It's about the ambiance here. It's all about people watching while enjoying that glass of wine with American music blasting in the background. One night we passed by Bar Ercolano and there was live musicians outside and people dancing in the street.
