AZZ!

Sorrento


Like an Italian ‘caff’ without the greasy spoons, AZZ! delights in its simplicity. Pungent garlic bread, intense lasagna and an appetite-quenching spaghetti puttanesca are served at a speed best described as ‘allegro’ amid multilingual banter between customers and staff. Ideal if you’re on your own, in a hurry, and don’t want to be surrounded by romantic diners.
