The story
Above the Amalfi Coast, in the hill town of Scala, Trattoria Da Lorenzo is a family-run restaurant where the welcome is as memorable as the food. Lorenzo and his family serve simple, quality dishes rooted in the traditions of the Amalfi Coast and Campania, in an atmosphere that is both serene and relaxed.
The kitchen, led by chefs Annamaria and Gerardo, works with fish purchased fresh each morning from the nearest market. This commitment to the day’s catch is the heart of the cooking. The menu changes with what the sea offers, and the results are plates of genuine, unpretentious flavour. One guest described the pasta di grano duro with calamari and moscardini as a highlight, while another praised the clean fry of calamari and the pacchero with monkfish.
This dedication to quality has earned Trattoria Da Lorenzo a place in the Michelin guide, where it has been recognised as Recommended for 2026. It’s a fitting nod to a restaurant that values substance over show.
The setting adds to the appeal. The dining room is warm and familial, and the terrace overlooks the Gulf of Salerno, making it a natural backdrop for private celebrations. Lorenzo and his son Luca help guests plan events, tailoring the menu to personal tastes.
Whether for a quiet lunch or a special dinner, Trattoria Da Lorenzo offers Mediterranean seafood cooking that feels both local and personal.
