LIDO AZZURRO

Our waitress was not friendly. The pasta with muscles and clams had a lot of sand in it. We tried several times to get the waitresses attention but were ignored. The table next to us left because there were sitting for nearly 30 minutes without any service. We have no problem taking time. In italy we are taking 2-3hours for dinner but are not used to being ignored when we try and call the waiter. They did take the pasta off our bill. But the whole experience was disappointing and was our least favorite meal so far. Everyone in amalfi who works here says it is the best. Maybe the best in amalfi but we have had amazing food in sorrento that outshines this restaurant.

I recently dined at this restaurant with a friend. Unfortunately, my friend was not feeling well and had an upset stomach, which meant she couldn't eat anything and was merely accompanying me for the meal. When I placed my order with the waitress and informed her that I was the only one ordering food, she replied that we couldn't do that and insisted that we order two meals for the two of us. This policy sounded strange to me, especially since half of the tables at the restaurant were empty, and they weren't busy. I asked her, "What if it was just me sitting here?" Ignoring my question, she responded that I still needed to order something for two people. Her tone was rather rude, so I asked if she preferred that I leave because I couldn't consume two meals.
At this point, she scornfully turned her attention to my friend. Their conversation went as follows:
"Why wouldn't you order anything?"
"I am sick."
"You can have a salad."
"No, I cannot. I told you I am sick."
"What kind of sickness?"
"Diarrhea."
Upon hearing this, she reacted with obvious disdain, took the menu, and walked away. Needless to say, we left the restaurant afterward.

Disappointed with the service at this restaurant. We had to ask three times for water and never received our table bread until we asked for that too. We were so disappointed we decided to go back to our hotel for desert. Upon paying the bill the waitress snapped at me when I looked over the bill to confirm the charges. Completely unprofessional and unwelcomed.

Food-wise my steak was salty and the Spaghetti and Scampi came with no tools crack the shrimp. In the end there was so little shrimp that it was disappointing. We kept asking ourselves, why didn't they just put the shrimp meat in the spaghetti instead of making us fight with it? And to add insult to injury, they never provided anything to clean fingers after trying pull the meat from the shell.

Do not recommend.

Je ne recommande simplement pas cet endroit. Dès l’entrée dans le restaurant nous ne sommes pas bien accueillis par la manager (pas un sourire). Concernant nos plats rien d’exceptionnels pour le prix et surtout la quantité. Également de l’eau plate en robinet payante …

La cerise sur le gâteau, mon compagnon et moi avons demandé un vin local affiché au prix de 8 euros et facturé 12euros au moment de payer. En demandant des explications la manager nous répond simplement qu’elle n’avait plus le vin demandé donc elle a servi un autre (plus chère évidemment) sans notre accord.

Malhonnête pour gagner si peu, la gentillesse et l’honnêteté ne font pas partie des valeurs de l’établissement.

In June of 20223 we found this wonderful restaurant that sits right on the harbor. Our driver had choose this place for us to stop for lunch while touring the Amalfi Coast. The food nothing less than amazing. The seafood was nothing shorty from phenomenal. We sat with a great view of the harbor watching the summer rain next sun shine. The staff was amazing. The food even better. Just an unexpected beautiful afternoon eating by the water. We love this place, and will recommend it to everyone.
