But the staff was friendly and we were able to get a seat without too much of a wait. I'm giving this restaurant 5 stars primarily because the offer something very unique. A vegetarian Ragu with seitan. This place is known for great ragu, which is meat based. But they offer a vegitarian version that was very good. I got a mushroom pasta dish that was very tatsy and filling. I could only eat half due to how filling it was. My wife got an Aperol spritz and I got an italian beer. If we were back in the area we'd likely stop back in to rty other options on their large menu.

He even had some sample dry pastas with him to physically show me as a little demonstration, which I thought was really nice and appreciated very much. I ended up ordering the fresh scialatielli with ragu and ricotta (€13.50), which was simple yet tasty. The fresh pasta was cooked very well with a classic preparation. They also gave a generous amount of parmesan on the side. I also tried the fresh lemonade, which was very lemony and slightly fizzy for additional refreshment. The place is somewhat small inside but I was able to get a table without any wait. The kitchen is right next to the seating area, so it's kind of cool to see the cooks right there. Overall, Tandem is a great place for pasta dishes with very friendly service.

The staff was very welcoming and nice. Don't hesitate to dig into that bag of cut bread. It's so good! Interior is simple but clean.

Finding this wonderful family-owned and operated restaurant in the middle of Naples was a true…read moregodsend. When we came off our cruise ship, we hired a wonderful driver, who, in the middle of our tour took us to this spot for lunch. He knew the family and dines there often himself. The place was really full of locals plus we 4 Americans and the family/staff couldn't have been nicer. Food is wonderful. Spectacular fresh pasta, outstanding Neapolitan pizza, and many good wines, all at an exceptionally good price - much less than restaurants in Naples built to get high prices from the tourists. Because of the local ambiance we took the opportunity to linger longer than normal (hey the wine was a great price, so why not enjoy another bottle?), because we so loved the atmosphere and environment.

It looked like a nice restaurant when I waked in so I was somewhat worried about it being expensive. But it ended up being very low priced for pizza and appetizers. The other dishes were more high end but everything they brought out looked very high quality and tasted just as high quality. I would highly recommend anyone to come try it for the exceptional service, pizza and espresso. I'm sure all the other options are just as stellar.

Thanks to yelp, for helping me find this gem in Naples…read more We were using our GPS to walk to this restaurant. When it lead us to a dark, corner street, I was skeptical to keep walking. I saw an arrow sign on the side of an alley wall, and a small banner which had the name of the restaurant. So we kept walking towards the alley and finally saw the place on the left side at the end of that alley. We were greeted and seated right away at the dining area downstairs. I loved the interiors and the overall look of the restaurant. All the staff members were friendly, polite, and efficient. We tried: OCTOPUS- The octopus was cooked perfectly in a very tasty sauce. O'Rrau- The meat was so tender, the ziti was cooked al dente, and the ragu was fragrant and flavorful. CANNELE A GGENUVESA- The meat was very tender, the candele was cooked al dente, and the broth was excellent. LEMON CAKE- It was fluffy, light, and deliciously tangy. If you have any doubt on whether to keep walking into that small alley or turn around, just go. You will not regret it. The restaurant was beautiful, charming, and clean. The service was great. Most importantly, the food was fantastic. Grazie mille!
