Frommer's Review

This traditional restaurant right on Sorrento's main square is both handily located and a good value. Canonico offers professional service and well-prepared traditional cuisine. If you find it on the menu, try their beautifully made local specialty, gnocchi alla sorrentina (potato dumplings with fresh tomatoes and mozzarella di bufala). Another dish you aren't likely to see elsewhere is paccheri di Gragnano (local large pasta, a bit lasagna-like).

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.
