Naples Restaurants

Located on via Santa Lucia, near Piazza Plebiscito and Castel dell'Ovo, Trattoria da Ettore serves authentic Neapolitan cuisine including delicious pizzas. The relatively small restaurant has outdoor seating for better weather. This is a great place for lunch when visiting Plebiscito area and Castel dell'Uovo, or come here for dinner. You won't be disappointed.

For my first taste of the famous Neapolitan pizza, I went straight for what was considered the best the city had to offer, Pizzeria Sorbillo. The rather small pizzeria, founded in 1935 and located in the heart of historic Naples, had been awarded the hefty title "Miglior Pizza d'Italia" (Best Pizza in Italy) and was frequently featured in guidebooks. Upon arrival, A large crowd had gathered outside waiting for a table, but being alone, I was able to jump ahead of everyone. I must admit that at first I was sceptical and not convinced that Neapolitan pizza could be that much better, but tasting the pizza at Sorbillo left me persuaded: there is nothing like Neapolitan pizza!

Pizza is excellent, so is the Pizzelle Fritta, I couldnt have enough of it.

Favorite Dish: The Pizza Margharita and the pizza with melanzane(eggplant)

The pizzeria was right next to my Hotel Cimarosa, what fortune!!!!!

This is a famous old pizza restaurant dating back to 1920-something...it sells pizzas, beer, water or wine...and nothing else. You'll probably have to queue outside for 10-15 mins but, trust me, its worth it.

Have the Pizza DOC Margheritta...simple tomatoes and fine bufalo mozarella...wash it down with a beer...total cost around 11 euros.

If you then cannot then say that you have just had the best pizza in the entire world then you speak with forked tongue.

As with most things in naples the exterior does no justice to the interior so don't be put off by the neighbourhood. There's also a nice ice cream parlour opposite the restaurant should you fancy a pud!

Enjoy!

I happened to find this very friendly restaurant where, on some occasions, you even share the table with other people. I also had a great time chatting with the owner who was talking about very funny things. It was like having lunch at home.

We found this place in 2005 when we visited Napoli for the first time. It was a recommendation from staff at the hotel where we were staying. Fratelli la Bufala serves the best Margherita Pizza with fresh buffalo mozzarella.

Every time we visit Napoli we always eat here.

for the absolute best pizza you will ever eat try this place :
Antica Pizzeria SRL 'Da Michele'
Via Cesare Sersal
1/3 (Angolo Via P Colleta)
80100 Naples
Italy

It is a very unpretencious pizza house but by far the best pizza you will ever experience. Get there early to avoid the queue waiting outside with ticket in hand awaiting their turn. There isn't a massive choice of pizza's in fact there are 2 only if i recall. One margarita, ( tomato and basil ) and a marinara which is basically the margarita with cheese. The pizzas are wood fired. simple and superb. Choice of drinks are beer, wine and soft drink. No big long wine list at all. I think we paid around 4 euro for a pizza. Great value.

ask anyone in Naples about Da Michele and they will all know it. It is very famous. Hopefully you get to experience a pizza from one of the oldest, authentic pizza houses in Italy.

While wandering Spaccanapoli we stumbled across Pizzeria Brandi and decided to go in. We were surprised at some of the prices of the food but the pizzas and beer were very reasonably priced and excellent! I had the bresaola and rocket pizza. Wonderful!
