2.5 stars. A «travel writer» at our hotel praised L’Abate as authentic/not touristy. Looks promising but it’s the opposite of the description. Waited over an hour for the staff to realize the kitchen lost our order. Another 20-:30 mins later the food arrived and it was average, so not worth it for culinary quality. No offer to comp anything for near 90 minute wait is just bad business. Maybe just a wafer-thin Limoncello? Side benefit of the table next to us fully turning twice is we met interesting people to chat with.

This was hard to decide on the star level for this restaurant we went here two nights in a row bc the food was good the first night and the menu was so big –we wanted to try multiple dishes. Location was right next to our hotel(Grand Tramontano) and after long days of sightseeing it was nice not to have to go far. The tomato soup was delicious as was their pizza, lasagna and ravioli were good as well. We were clearly looking to compare our knowledge of traditional dishes and compare to how they taste in Italy, so we weren’t too adventurous in our selection however we were satisfied. The live music was quite entertaining. Especially his version of Video Killed the Radio star. Dessert was never tried since we had our fill both times w appetizers and our meals. Definitely go but maybe not twice

Average food, okay but nothing to write home about. However the service was quite slow and uninterested to say the least, and we paying with card the waiter shoved the machine under my nose and wouldn’t proceed until I had added a tip to the bill. This was ONTOP of the Cover charge AND service charge already added to the bill. Topping in Italy is not common and is only given for exceptional service. I would avoid this place as there are may other lovely places to eat in this town.

Excellent service and meal. We ordered the sorrento pizza, mussels And veal scallopini. They brought us complimentary limoncello and a dessert plate for our honeymoon!

Terrific corner location next to the basilica. There are indoor and upstairs tables, but sit outside to enjoy great people-watching in Piazza San Antonino. Large menu and big wine list(mostly bottles with limited house wines by the glass.) Good pizzas and pastas. I had a wonderful minestrone soup. Friendly, efficient service. Immaculately clean open kitchen and bathrooms upstairs. A solid recommend.

My wife and I have visited 4 Italian cities on our trip so far and this place has had the best margarita pizza and ravioli so far. It must be that tomato sauce because we were both fans. The restaurant was very busy in a cute corner of Sorrento. The food was affordable and there was a musician playing in the restaurant. Overall a romantic scene at an affordable rate.

Nice atmosphere. Gnocchi alla Sorrentina was tasty. Rigatoni with meatballs in tomato sauce was very good. The pizza looked typical. It was a little more expensive than other meals. The service was fine. It was acceptable, but not exceptional.

Realmente me sorprendió para bien este lugar. Chico pero muy cálido y bien decorado. Se ve clásico y tradicional. Pedimos ñoquis con salsa de salmón y spaghetti con pomodoro y berenjena. Ambos platos estaban bien hechos, la pasta al dente y la salsa suave y sabrosa. Pedimos la copa de vino de la casa, muy rico y la copa venia llenita jaja. La atención es amable, la música suena de fondo por lo que se puede hablar y escuchar al interlocutor sin problema. Recomiendo y volvería de volver a Sorrento.

This is a nice and popular restaurant very near the main square of Sorrento and next to the Basilica of S. Antonino. In fact, you will probably have to wait a bit to get a table outside although they always have tables available inside. The food is very good. The ingredients are fresh, not over-seasoned and the portions are huge. We averaged about EUR70 for 2 people(3 courses including wine). The service was very good — attentive without being invasive and any mistakes were quickly corrected. I particularly liked their gnochetti. This was the only restaurant we went back to in our week-long stay in Sorrento. I would recommend you try it if you’re in the area.
