Ristorante da Orlando In Rotondi

I've been frequenting this restaurant for years, ever since Orlando, the father of the current manager Franco, ran it. Family-run, authentic food, excellent service, and Franco is a friend, excellent value for money.

Excellent food and top-notch hospitality

Excellent pizza, light dough, fast and friendly service

Everything is good but they have to buy the summer

Historic restaurant, good regional cuisine, quality and dedication.

A good restaurant with excellent food, I especially enjoyed the lamb. The welcome and staff were friendly.

A good restaurant serving both meat and seafood dishes, with rustic yet friendly and efficient service. We arrived early and were served in a reasonable amount of time, but after a while the place filled up and they struggled a bit. The gnocchi with ragù were very good, with various pieces of meat, served in a small pan, and the ziti alla Genovese, grated with the classic grater, were also good, and even had a little meat, which isn't always available elsewhere. The homemade croquettes were decent. The desserts weren't homemade, but they chose the pastry very well: the lemon delicacy was better than some we've had on the Amalfi Coast, and the cheesecake was also good. The only downside was the croquettes, which were listed as €5.50 and were actually a full-sized. In any case, for what was quoted plus a bottle of mineral water, it was about €45, which I'd say was more than fair. Definitely worth a look if you're in the area; we also saw some lovely seafood dishes, which we'll try on a future occasion.

On Carnival Sunday, we went to lunch at Orlando in Rotondi, following a friend's recommendation. The restaurant is spacious, the ambiance is simple, and the service was excellent. The first courses were delicious, both the ziti alla genovese and the gnocchi with sauce, enriched with meatballs, pork rinds, and tarachelle. The "padellaccia," a pork stew with potatoes and pickled peppers, a typical winter dish from the Avellino area, was flavorful and generous. The desserts were delicious, creamy and delicate. The bill was in line with the service.
