We were in Italy for 8 days recently and when in Rome, we hired a driver to take us to Pompeii & the Amalfi Coast. While heading to the coast, our driver asked if we would like an authentic Italian dinner, to which we responded, of course! He took us the this grocery/restaurant and it was the highlight of our trip. We had the most amazing time, great food, charming atmosphere, and wonderful hosts. Plentiful wine, bread, appetizers of fried pizza & broccoli flower with scrumptious melted cheeses, the tastiest antipasto plate with mouthwatering bruschetta, buffalo mozzarella, olives & prosciutto, and if that weren't enough, we were then served to die for eggplant parmigiana and meatballs. But to top the night off, the owner brought out a bucket of infusing lemon rinds & a bowl of simple syrup & made fresh limoncello. The most amazing time, and fantastic food...ever!!! I would highly recommend anyone drive as far out of their way as necessary to find this place. The best experience!! read more
