Frommer's Review

Serving customers for over a century, this venerable restaurant has racked up sheaves of reviews attesting to its quality. The atmosphere is upscale but relaxed enough to be kid-friendly. One of the most famous specialties is paccheri con gamberetti (homemade large pasta with shrimp). Zuppa di pesce per due (fish stew for two) is another winner. Don't forget to try the typical Amalfian side dish known as ciambotta (a mix of sautéed potatoes, peppers, and eggplant). For dessert try the simple homemade crostata (a thick crust topped with local citrus-fruit jam). Half-portions are available for children.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
