Il Duca In Salerno

We arrived on Christmas day with all the desire to eat something good, without paying much attention to the expense. But someone else decided for our pockets. We stopped in this tractor, which offered (exclusively displayed outside) two menus: one for 13 and one for 20. We sat down, they sent us to the table a foreign boy who didn't even know where this menu that was displayed outside was, and who showed us in a photo from his cell phone what included mozzarella and ham, that is, the green menu for 20 euros. We trusted. A first course of land arrives at the table, without having first had the contemplated appetizer of mozzarella and raw ham. We asked for explanations. They told us that the boy had made a mistake and that the pasta was already hot and on the table. We could have had the mozzarella and ham later if we had wanted, but by now... we know it was no longer an appetizer. The second course arrives, which in the menu of 13 (which had now been started by mistake), was missing the side of chips, which we had at the table for a fee, upon our request, thus reaching the figure of the menu of 20, paying as well as the drinks that were included in the other. In short, a mechanism that, with good reason, would be well orchestrated to the detriment of the diner who arrives unprepared. If you have nowhere to go, and I think it's difficult, avoid it. The only positive note: the chef's good will to try to put the situation back in line. The fact that these are special days is understandable, but if you decide to remain at the service of customers, you should be able to have a better service. The initial solution was to send not a foreign boy to the table, but a professional person who knew the restaurant's offerings well.

Excellent restaurant, balcony overlooking the crowded alley, you eat like God, the owner and his wife are two very kind and attentive people, they make you taste everything and more, modest prices, I recommend it to everyone.

We chose this place because it accepted our reservation, it was a Saturday and there were 9 of us. We were supposed to enter at 8.30pm but instead they let us in at 9pm, placing us at separate tables, giving priority to their friends. After we started eating they asked us to move because a group of 12 people they knew were arriving. At that point we got angry and they finally reunited us. The pizza arrived in installments in fact we didn't all eat together. Go to this place only if forced

I ordered a dish with octopus, the portion was very small, I wanted fried calamari, it was not bad, my cousin also ate pasta with mussels and he was satisfied.

everything was excellent... from the generous portions to the kindness and friendliness of the waiters and the owner with truly crisis-killing prices and a very nice location

Typical Neapolitan (not Salerno) restaurant where the food is divine, served for four evenings in a row, making my Russian wife enjoy the typical Neapolitan cuisine (with a pinch of pride for me too, who have lived in Naples for ten years). Everything was excellent, kindness and courtesy of all the staff. Ultimately, you pay the right price!

Best place to dine on this side of Salerno. Family run business that pay attention to every order and also are unbelievably welcoming. Despite language barrier we’ve made great connection with owners(whos been running the place in nearly 20 years) every single friend of mine felt that great connection between us and owner his wonderful partner, waiters and chefs. I’ve been travelling around the world for nearly 15 years and this is the place you want to go! Big up and love ❤️

I had the pleasure of spending a couple of evenings in this restaurant, in the company of a friend and we fell in love with it. Cozy place, friendly, helpful and friendly staff, delicious food. The first evening we tried the "boscaiola" pizza and chocolate cake; on the second evening, pasta, potatoes and provola and for dessert a caprese and a calzone stuffed with Nutella. What can I say, everything was delicious.

It was excellent and authentic food, the staff is very friendly and welcoming, and very good value for what we had, you should go there !

En el viejo Salerno. Un restaurante sencillo en la calle lateral. Con personal sencillo, pero fuera de ritmo, amable. Volvimos para tres visitas y disfrutamos de cada comida. Entorno agradable y personal encantador. Vale la pena una visita
