Came here for dinner with my daughter, based on the reviews, and was not disappointed. This…read moreestablishment has a very charming vibe, with a back patio that's cool and quiet, away from the street. Its location near the amphitheater entrance of the Pompeii Archeological Park makes it very easy to find. The food was fantastic, the pasta was perfect. The service was absolutely top-notch as well. I highly recommend this restaurant for a casual evening with friends, or a quiet evening with a date.

This is by far the best restaurant that I have been to throughout my entire Italy experience. The…read morefood was so delicious, and the house wine was a great value! The desert was heavenly, and the pasta is home-made. But the number-one best thing about this restaurant was the service. Our server, Roberto, went above and beyond to ensure that my family had exceptional service. He speaks incredible English, and he even made drawings for my kids! I will definitely be coming back in the future, and I insist anyone coming through Pompeii visit.

Great service and excellent food! Great atmosphere! No problem the place has a lovely classic…read morelook. Around the corner from the square. Just beautiful

Winter in Pompeii is engulfing. It engulfs you through silence, empty restaurants and restaurant…read moreowners trying to salvage every opportunity to get just one more guest. It's calm. In this fashion, we were lured into this establishment by the owner while walking through the silent street on a gloomy afternoon. The open, airy space is pleasant and unpretentious. The welcome by waiters was more comparable to a greeting that a host would provide for guests into their own house. Being presented with a wide spanning menu felt completely unnecessary, as within moments of sitting down, the chef came out of the kitchen to greet and tell about the house specialties. The middle aged Italian man was dressed very cleanly and despite little knowledge of English, provided a better recommendation than one could ever desire from yelp or from the menu itself, which still laid untouched on the table. The prosciutto bruschetta was bursting with flavor of fresh, ripe tomatoes that gave off the sweetness of a cherry, the fullness of sun ripening and the flavor that can only be experienced in a dream. The paccheri pasta looked as beautiful as it tasted, in a pleasant green color and the flavor profile that one can only experience in select establishments. Amusingly from the name, the Carlo Alberto pizza was the least favorite of the dishes had here, but was very interesting. If coming through to visit Pompeii, do not miss this establishment.

While visiting Castellamare di Stabia we asked a local shop owner who was standing outside his shop…read morefor a recommendation on a good place to have lunch. He not only gave us a recommendation, he had his friend with whom he was speaking personally walk us a few blocks to the restaurant rather than just give us directions... How nice/friendly was that!!! Boy was it a great restaurant, friendly service by the owner, comfortable ambiance, reasonably priced and a huge menu. Our party of five feasted on a beautifully cooked tender steak, Seafood Pasta that had fresh muscles and clams with perfectly al-denta linquini, an awesome cheese board with delicious cheeses & olives, a Sausage Pasta dish (can't remember the name of the pasta cut) that was out of this world tasty. The fresh bread and fried dough balls (can't remember the official Italian name for these) that were complimentary served upon our arrival were in one word...AMAZING. We truly enjoyed this delicious Italian food...a huge thank you to that shop owner for this outstanding recommendation.

Do NOT eat here. It's a SCAM! I've eaten in many places in Italy in the Napoli region. I've…read morenever seen any places that charge a 3.50 EURO per person sit-in fee. They don't tell you. If you did not look at your bill and start to wonder why it's so high, it is this hidden fee. You might wonder if this fee help at for anything free - absolutely not. You do not get anything free. You need to pay for water. There's no free bread or anything. When you ask them, they say it was on the menu and they don't show you where it is. Since they left a menu at the door, I then looked and it was in the second page in SMALL light orange letter on a GLOSSY white menu. You can barely read it but if you place around with the lighting ant holding the menu in different angles then you will see it. I read such awesome review by others so I want to try it. Don't believe the review about the pizza. You are simple paying for an overly expensive, glorified bread that barely has topics and cheese. See my pictures. The pizza is small and cost 30-50% more than other places. In some cases, I don't even know if you can call it a pizza. I should have know when it's prime dinner time and there's only one other table. I think the people who wrote the review stayed at the hotel that it's connected to and was too lazy to find found elsewhere. So they order a pizza and took it to their room.

Our waiter Salvatore was absolutely amazing. Very attentive and gave us really great…read morerecommendations. This place is a little bit pricey, but also I feel as though it was worth it for our first time Europe travel. It's right outside of Pompeii at the exit , so knowing it was in a toy area we knew that we might be paying a little bit more for the food. But the service made up for everything, it seems as though it's very team service and a lot of the workers were helping us not just Salvatore. Overall, we had a really great experience and would be back.
