Naples Eating: 43 Best Local Restaurants & Cafes in Naples

Tandem

By Azzurra

Ragù is undoubtedly one of the most delicious specialities of the Neapolitan kitchen, and Tandem serves some of the tastiest ragù in the city. It’s cooked slowly with the same passion an Italian mother would have; not in a hurry as is typical of many other restaurants.

A visit to Pizzeria da Michele is a must. There’s one thing in particular that has made it famous all over the world – it’s the pizzeria from the film adaptation of “Eat, Pray, Love” starring Julia Roberts. It’s funny to see the photograph of her eating Michele's famous pizza with her hands!

Pozzuoli's Harbour: ready to sail?

Porto di Pozzuoli

During early morning you can visit the fish market or more pragmatically just move to eat the same fish in the evening. The Serapis Temple is not to be missed, not only for its archaeological interest but also because it marks the phenomenon of the Bradyseism: the gradual uplift/descent of part of the Earth's surface caused by underground magma.

Most original pizza in Naples

Da Concettina ai Tre Santi

Pizza al ragù, or Pizza Salsiccia e Friarielli, Pizza Concettina: you'll never get tired of trying something new. In the true neapolitan style, you'll have the queue and the queue will be messy. But it's worth it.
