The service however was good and I did feel that the staff cared; do go to this location and not the other villa zuccaro in the garden.

Had to open our own bottle of water and pour it. Wine is a house wine at best. At the end we were served a yellow after dinner drink... "I wish they never brought it" -my friend. Lol. When we saw that it was on the main street, we were extremely reluctant but with over a thousand reviews averaging 4.4 stars on Google Maps, we tried it anyways. Should have trusted our instincts.

I can eat a few dozen of these local red prawns! For the main, we had the half lobster with pasta, which for 37 Euro it has a more than fair portion of a half lobster that tasted fresh.

The pizza tasted more like store bought frozen pizza and while the steak was huge and cost more than 30 euro, it was inedible... just a huge piece of meat riddled with tendons and layered in fat that you couldn't even cut through. We maybe got 4 bites of decent meat out of it. Bottom line don't waste your time stopping if you want a good meal, keep waking another 50 ft. If I could I'd leave zero stars.

When I alerted management the following day, they told me it was impossible we got sick from them and that they weren't willing to reimburse us or compensate us in any way. We are 100% sure we got sick from there because within 30 minutes, 3 out of 4 of our party were sick. Our friend who didn't get sick had requested no red meat in her tasting so she was served different food items than us. I would recommend avoiding this restaurant! With that said there were 2 pros: I had a wonderful cappuccino served in a mud cup while waiting to be seated. The outdoor patio is pretty at night.
