Great burgers! We had the American Burger and the Mushroom Burger. The American was a deconstructed…read moreburger (all components of the burger laid out on a plate minus the bun). The Mushroom had mushrooms and melted cheese with bun (really good bread used for the bun). Both burgers were cooked medium (slightly pink in the middle). Bacon was crispy, quality bacon. We ordered a side of fries and they were good as well. Quality beers on tap (clean tap lines). Fast, friendly service. Our waitress spoke enough English to help with our terrible Italian. We will return!

Started with my usual, prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella .. not as nice as I would have liked. Ended with a pizza .. a bit better here than my first Naples meal at Taverna Viola. Again: lovely view. Friendly service. Average food.

We stopped for pizza at "Paradisio", only about 500 metres from a friends house. While we waited…read morefor our two pizzas (8.50 Euro), we enjoyed a couple fresh pulled pints. Not only were the beers very good, they gave us a plate of the best, most butter-like, green olives. They were seriously green; amazing snack! The pizza was very good; but not without some observations. The sauce is perfect; what you would imagine if they put it in a food museum. Exact amount of seasoning, basil, fresh tomato taste with a hint of sweet. It was also plentiful; making it almost soupy, but in a good way. The crust was very thin; perfect wood-fired char at the edges, but had to be folded to hold the toppings at the centre. It tasted incredible, but was a bit awkward to nosh on. The toppings were the other star of the dish. The margarita pizza (about $5 CDN), was all about the sauce with a garnish of basil and fresh mozzarella. It was simple, yet had complex flavors; a perfect 'clean' pizza and my favourite. The second pizza we had was Capicolla (or something like that); had cheese, olives, ham and mushrooms. It was good, but toppings along with the sauce made it slightly salty. Still amazing.

Forget Florence and Pisa and Montalcino and head south to where the coffee and bread are ten times better. This second story gem is down at sea level in the port of Pozzuoli, and I have eaten there about twenty times. Be advised: the menu is very, very limited. You can get a starter of octopus or a plate of olives. There are a couple of seafood pastas and risotto pescatore. Then you can get some fish or some fried calamari or shrimp. That's about it. But the guys who run the place are great, and I love to watch them interact with foreigners --- by which I mean anyone who lives more than ten miles away!! I first ate here in about 1986, and the young guy that was our waiter then was our waiter in April of this year, and one of the old cooks was still down in the kitchen. Don Antonio and his wife are long gone, but his son is still there every night it is open. I highly recommend this place for an adventurous eater, but don't go there and waste a table if you are wanting some sort of special fancy meal. This is where small groups of old friends go for good food in a simple setting.
