Instant confirmation or on request: what actually changes
On the same page, two restaurants can behave in two different ways. The difference isn’t cosmetic: it’s whether the table is yours or not.

Where the listings come from, and why they’re sometimes wrong
No restaurateur asked to be here. That’s why the catalogue is broad, and it’s also why it goes stale.

«All verified»: what it means, and what it doesn’t
Here a review is tied to a meal that took place. It is an inconvenient rule — it shuts a lot of people out — and everything that «all verified» can promise lives inside it.

Eating in Salerno
The province of Salerno holds the Amalfi Coast and the Cilento together: two different sea kitchens, and a plain that makes mozzarella.
The anchovies
- Colatura di alici di Cetara DOP — the liquid that drips from salted anchovies, heir to Roman *garum*. A few drops dress spaghetti with garlic, parsley and oil, and no salt is added;
- Menaica anchovies, caught with an ancient net in the Cilento, a Slow Food presidium.
From the land
- Mozzarella di Bufala Campana DOP, made here on the Sele plain;
- Mozzarella nella mortella, from the Cilento, wrapped in myrtle branches that scent it;
- Cilento cacioricotta grated over pasta, and fusilli rolled on a rod;
- Carciofo di Paestum IGP and the white fig of the Cilento DOP.
From the coast
Sfusato Amalfitano IGP is the coast's lemon: eaten in salad, drunk as limoncello, and the scent of delizia al limone.
In the glass
Costa d'Amalfi DOC, Cilento DOC, and the Fiano and Aglianico of the interior.
Opening hours and closing days change. The ones on the listings come from public sources and may be out of date. Where a restaurant confirms tables with us, the availability you see is the real one.
