"We are in Scafati staying in an apartment as part of our vacation to Italy (Scafati is next to Pompei and we were looking for a hole in the wall kind of place where we could sit and have a good, simple meal. Our waiter seated us immediately, made sure the AC was ok for us and took our drink order. Despite the language barrier, he spoke a little English and we tried a little bit of Italian (and used google translate. To our surprise, after we ordered (two different kinds of pizza for the parents and ‘American burgers’ for the kids he brought us a delicious appetizer of fried potato slices and these fried dough balls that were deliciously garlicky. Our pizzas were so delicious thicker dough than what we had further north in Rome and Florence, but not too thick. My husband got a ‘white’ pizza with several kinds of cheeses and mushrooms. I got pizza Diablo’s which is basically pepperoni pizza and wow was it threat! They use salami for pepperoni and I’m wondering why we don’t use that in America. Our daughters’ burgers were HUGE with lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, a fried egg and a delicious sauce. Instead of a bun, it was served in something like pita bread. Our daughters could only finish half! After our wonderful waiter (whose name was either Gianni or Gian boxed our leftover pizzas and burgers, out came another surprise: deep fried dough balls dredged in sugar and drizzled with two types of chocolate. They were absolutely scrumptious! This restaurant may not look like much on the outside, but wow! What a great meal!! And cost wise, it was less expensive than any dinner we have had here in Italy! (It helped that the appetizer and dessert were on the house! Gianni was such an ebullient and friendly waiter!"
