This restaurant is a gem! Run by a mother / daughter pair, the food was absolutely delicious and I appreciated that the gnocchi were gluten-free. We were running late and called to let the restaurant know, and they stayed open to wait for us.

The food is average, some dishes are not included in the menu and the only way is to learn it from the waiter which means there is no price indicated.

An absolute must if you are staying in Sorrento or near by. I went with my partner looking for a local restaurant and we couldn't have found a better place :) Leaving out the hundreds of overpriced touristic restaurants, we had the opportunity to enjoy an evening sorounded by italian people, eating absolutely delicious food for a very reasonable price. We recommend it 100%

A wonderful surprise right around the corner from our rental in Massa Lubrense. We loved the family and restaurant so much we went twice. I wish I lived closer so we could go more often. Very attentive, food is amazing and most importantly, the family is simply lovely!

The restaurant is very well located (almost with seeview). The food is great, local and typical from the region. It is a family business and a well known adress for the local. But it seems that they don't treat tourist the same way they treat locals. We were offered a limoncello glass at the end of the diner but I was just reminded that service was not included and that the limoncello was offered when I was presented with the bill... didn't like it... Also, we realised that the "catch of the day" fish was almost 3 times the price of all their regular dishes... without any warning... I usually always tip well when happy but such ending unfortunately left us a bitter taste of our experience...

Great personality of owners: Amelia, her mother who is a Chef. Food was truly special. Love it. Many thanks.

This is a bustling family restaurant, with mamma in the kitchen, papa front of house and 2 daughters greeting and serving, both of whom move with efficiency and professionalism, one with particularly high level of warmth. Food was simple but very tasty and well executed, wine selection focussed on some local, with other Italian options, all fairly priced. It began raining and so the handful of tables outside were quickly and seamlessly moved indoors. The lighting indoors was just too bright and ‘white’ to allow for a 5star atmosphere, recommend dimming the super bright potlights., and that would be my only complaint.

Service was not okey,, they forgot our wine than after our meal they didnt come to our table to ask for desert or coffee but after we complain they were nice and offered desert and coffee from the house and they were sorry,, we beleive in Michelin rest everything should be already perfect and dedicated

Avoid at all costs- a honeymoon dinner ruined by appalling service and gritty seafood. From the moment we arrived, it was clear the staff had little interest in providing us with basic hospitality. We ordered small appetizers and they blatantly misled us us to a per person upsell table order with what felt like a deliberate exploitation of non-locals. The quality of the food was shockingly poor. The seafood was filled with sand and grit. We asked for the dessert menu 3 times only to be ignored and never brought it. It was obvious that the staff prioritized Italian patrons leaving us to fight for service. We settled for the bill where we were shocked by the pricing of appetizers and specials compared to on-menu items and then the staff pressured us for a tip on top of the already pricey unsatisfactory meal. The restaurant was a complete disappointment from miscommunication, substandard food, inattentive service, brazen pressure for a tip. Avoid if not local or Italian speaking!!!!

La Torre came highly recommended by both our local host and driver. We visited one evening last week and enjoyed the food, loved the wine. It seems we picked a bad evening to visit, there were 2 birthday parties that evening and as the evening progressed, the staff became somewhat intoxicated and chose to ridicule a member of my party (non-Italian) to other guests. I would expect more from a Michelin starred restaurant.

Great authentic cusine, for reasonable price!

A true local gem. It is a family run restaurant as many write ups and Michelin will attest to. The two sisters run the front of the house/service while the father aids with front of the house work and Mamma runs the kitchen. The specials are something to look for. Local cuisine with a focus on seafood. We had an outstanding experience and would go back in a heartbeat. Amelia is fantastic and a genuine person who truly wants people to enjoy and love. One note - if you are driving and hit the address, you may not arrive where you need to. The address is actually a home in the middle of a street. To get there keep driving and you'll see a note for La Torre (the tower) - One Fire up a hill. Drive there and it will be on the right just before the tower on the left. Parking wasn't an issue for us.

It was like stepping back in time to a better friendlier place. This is a family owned and operated restaurant that makes you feel like a local.

What a wonderful, loving, amazing place! The family that runs La Torre One Fire is welcoming and delightful. And the food, cooked up by mama herself, is nothing short of delicious!

We loved everything about this restaurant. The warmth, the welcome but most of all the incredible food! All of it was fresh and delicious and sooo flavorful. The owners and their family welcomed us
6.0
Very small menu with many special of the day dishes. The waitress recommanded them without mentioning the prices and it cane out that they were very expensive compared to the ones in the menu. Some dishes were really disappointing, like fiori do zuca that was too doughy. Pasta with local crabs had 1.5 crabs that weren't eatable. Was disappointing experience

+2We were excited to come here…however we expected more from a Michelin Bib Gourmand rated restaurant. Nothing really knocked our socks off. Food was average. Specials were ok. It was nice to meet the chef though.

Very nice restaurant with handmade and local products. Two sisters who run the show and with some guys who work their asses of. So swiftly friendly and nice place with great outdoor garden to eat. It is a little hidden but a must go in massa lubrense area. Great ending of our holiday in Napels area. ????????????

The owner was great and welcoming. However the sister who served us was pushy and kept insisting we order more. She wouldn't take no for an answer. The food was incredible but her service left a sour taste in the mouth
