We went to the place featured in movies and many a poetic Yelp review. At 11 a.m., the wait to sit was at least an hour; the wait to take a pizza away (and eat on the curb) was much the same. We opened the trusty Yelp app and found Pizzeria Trianon literally around the corner from the "must go" spot. We walked up and were seated in seconds. The "fabulous" place has 4 options; Trianon has 25+. We went with a Diavolo (spicy Neapolitan salami, Calabrian peppers, fior di latte and tomato), and a tonno (Italian tuna, black olives, capers, fior di latter). The pizzas were cooked and served in 10 minutes; they were very large for a single eater (but that didn't stop us from trying to finish each one!). It's hard to imaging that the "famous" place made better pizza than this, and that waiting an hour would be worth it. If you must, you must; but if you are hungry and want amazing pizza at a very reasonable price, stop in here. 2 excellent pies and 2 bottled soft drinks were 25 euro. Highly, highly recommended. read more

Where are all the hungry patrons? This place is just around the corner from another, more popular pizzeria (which we also ate at), and their pizza is every bit as good with tons more of delicious options. We had the Capricciosa (Ham, mushroom, olives, cheese and oil) and the Salsiccia (Sausage and mushroom) pizzas and they were cooked to perfection! These fellas are eager to please and this place should be packed! Come give them a try while in Napoli. read more

I was really excited to try this and maybe my expectations were too high. The pizza looks very good but was bland. We both agreed we've had much better Neapolitan pizza in the states.

Grabbed pizza here for lunch while in Naples. I think this place is often overlooked because the famous pizza place is right across the street. The line there was too long, and we got in to Trianon right away. I'm so glad we did because the pizza was delicious! We ordered and shared the Margherita and the marinara. Both were delicious! Two pizzas was too much for the two of us, and we took half of one with us in a box. Definitely my favorite pizza in Italy! read more

Do not pass up Pizzeria Trianon! This place is literally across the street from a very popular (crowded with long lines) pizza restaurant with very limited indoor seating. They have a large selection of handmade pizzas at very reasonable prices, plenty of indoor seating, and very efficient service. This was our go-to pizza restaurant in Naples, despite several places closer to our hotel. There was no waiting for seating and the delicious pizzas arrived promptly. The crust was thin and crisp and covered with a sea of melted cheeses. We will definitely revisit when we return to Naples. read more

The eternal when in Naples question: Da Michele or Trianon. You can't go wrong with either, however the former will most certainly have an endless line. The pizza is divine. That may be all you need to know, but I have more for you and it might be kinda crucial information: unlike Da MIchele where there are literally only two options and no toppings (at least to my recollection, though it's been about 5 years since I've been there), Trianon has a huge menu with a variety of toppings. Choices! We like choices! This isn't a place to linger, though. The night we went, it was brightly lit and empty. If I wasn't determined to have this pizza (and a glass of Lacryma di Christi, of course) I wouldn't have walked in to be honest and for dinner, I'd normally hit up a place that has a little atmosphere. They take resos and I guess if you're here in the busy season you may need them. The night we rolled up in mid November, it was empty. Kinda of comical when I informed the grumpy gentleman working there that I had a reservation (it was prime dinner time at 8:30). He practically looked around the empty restaurant and shrugged at me. Whatever. It's good pizza. You're in Naples. Go get you some. read more

Pizzeria Trianon da Ciro is a historic Neapolitan pizzeria that opened in Naples, Italy in 1923. It was founded by husband and wife Ciro and Giorgina Leone. The couple named their pizzeria after a famous theater that's just a few doors down. Since the late 19th century, the Teatro Trianon has been a popular venue for the best artists of the Neapolitan and Italian theater scenes. Pizzeria Trianon opened during a period of time between the two World Wars when the economy was bad, unemployment was very high and people were starving. The Leones started making pies that people called "a ruotta di carretto" (Italian for "cartwheel") because of their huge size. These pies consisted of very thin, long-rising dough, about 35 cm wide, which could satisfy a person's appetite for a whole day. Actors who frequently performed at Teatro Trianon (such as Totò, Macario, and Nino Taranto) would frequently stop in at Pizzeria Trianon. Today the pizzeria is owned by the Leones granddaughters Donatella and Giorgina and their husbands. A second location opened in Salerno in 1991, and a third opened in Sorrento in 2017. My wife and I visited Pizzeria Trianon on our honeymoon in July 2018. We had just eaten some pies at the popular Antica Pizzeria da Michele. While that pizzeria is known for its long lines, Trianon is right across the street, they usually don't have long lines, and their pizza is comparable to da Michele. We decided to order a pie to-go and eat it back at our hotel. The interior of Trianon was really nice. The pizzeria has three levels and can accommodate up to 400 people. There was a lot of cool tile art on the walls depicting scenes of Naples. After looking over the menu, we decided to order a Margherita with fresh Buffalo Mozzarella. The heat of the wood-fired oven cooks the pies very quickly. The sauce was perfect, the crust had a nice chew to it, and the mozzarella was so creamy! Excellent pizza! read more

Went to this place after not wanting to wait a DaMichele was too busy. This place is very nice and very good. We loved it.

With the line of locals for Da Michele literally spilling out into the streets at 10:30 am, we decided to hit up what's known as the second best spot for authentic Naples pizza: Pizzeria Trianon. Since we arrived early we were quickly seated downstairs by the pizza oven. We must've hit it just right because the place had a huge line outside within 15 minutes! The menu is simple and basic: pizza! We each ordered our own pizza (as is the tradition and norm in Italy) and watched as they were tossed and cooked by hand right in front of us. We got the house wine which was a red made with grapes grown from the nearby Pompeii region (not great wine, but what a fun story). Hubby opted for a mushroom pizza (it was his favorite pizza he ate during our entire 3 weeks spent in Italy) and I got a pomodoro with tomatoes that were grown near Mt. Vesuvius. I wanted to go as local as possible and that menu item jumped out at me the second I sat down. My pizza was very good but far from the best I've ever eaten. I had no problem polishing off the whole thing of course, but I wish I had ordered a more classic pie like margherita. My pizza didn't have any red sauce which was disappointing. Live and learn. The crust was excellent, chewy and slightly undercooked (as it should be) with an appropriate smattering of blackened charred bits. Those little "burned" areas were the most delicious part of the pizza! What struck me most is that the prices are cheap, even for dining in! Big pizzas ranged in price from €4.50 up to €9.00 and made for a very inexpensive, high quality, and super filling meal. The hospitality was friendly (Italians are generally jovial and in our experience, they're particularly happy to have foreign tourists visiting Napoli) and the service casual and unhurried. While this may not be the very best or most famous pizzeria in town, it certainly belongs a spot near the top. read more

The best pizza bar none. Wish they had salads too for my wife. Ordered carry out twice in Naples.

Excellent pizza. No thrills, no frills. Prices more than reasonable. Salame pizza was excellent. This place has been around 100 years. You know it's good. read more

Large seating area upstairs for this excellent pizzeria. Very fresh ingredients and most pizzas are versions of the Margherita, which was invented in Naples. Allegedly the second best pizza in town behind their neighbor, Di Michele. Problem with the other place is that they have a line out the door all day, and I'm not a very patient line stander. For me Trianon is the perfect #1 to me with its ample seating area and lack of crazy crowds. They even have lots of toilets and a hand washing area near the top of the stairs upstairs. We got a single pizza and shared it. A very reasonable thing to do as it's a decent sized pie. Of note, service here isn't great, so order everything in one go as your waiter may never return. Pay downstairs with the cashier near the door. Most ate their pizza with knife and fork. read more

This place doesn't even deserve a star. It was my first time dining here with my cousin's and I, It was the worst experience we encountered. We were the first customers to arrive before they were opened. The red head hostess/ waitress was so rude to us just because the owner allowed us to come in early before they opened. When we walked up to the stairs to be seated the red head waitress stopped us with her hands up and told us in Italian to go back down with an attitude. Mind you I'm from America and I was so excited to dine here because we were told they make amazing pizza. Honestly their pizza is nothing special and I'm not just saying that because we had horrible experience. The red head waitress had no common courtesy. She took other people's orders before us, when my cousin asked her " how come you took other people's order before us" she replied with " because they are small group" , we were only six women. My other cousin asked her for ice and said " we don't have ice" we asked her for WiFi and she dismissed us and walked away. That's not how we should be treated, and on top of that we still ended up staying there after that horrible service we had. Please treat others with kindness Pizzeria Trianon. read more

I am stuffed!!! First time and will be back. I must say Gia did eat more than I did (lol jk).

Incredible pizza and vary fair prices. Individual but large pies that most people somehow manage to finish. Family style tables upstairs are great because you enjoy authentic Napolitano cuisine surrounded by the company of local families. Not for tourists, prices are not cheap come-on gimmicks like offered across the street. We wondered why a long line of tourists were waiting across the street. Ten euro pies which include a beer. Here I paid 8.5€ for an amazing pie with gorgeous toppings. The servers were brusque with us but hugs and kisses for local families who must come once a week. I truly live this place but they lost s star for serving a miserable excuse for house red wine. I'm in the wine business as a grower and vintner -- this swill was horrid and was an insult to Italian wine makers. But we will be back! read more

The pizzas here are great. I wish I could give 6 stars for the food. I ordered the pizza with anchovies on it and they where incredibly flavorful. My wife ordered the Margarita and it was also very good. The service was just fine, the pizzas come out incredibly fast. My only reason for the non-five star as like most places in Naples you do not get much in the way of the staff coming around to see if you need anything and lack of English (I know that makes me an ugly American). Atmosphere is fine, nothing wrong with it except it has no A/C and no ceiling fans so beware late summer afternoons. All in all, go there, pizza is fantastic and you don't have to wait in line like the more famous place across the street. read more

We just happened upon this place when out for a walk around lunchtime. It was terrific pizza (but honestly, is there a bad pizza in Naples?) We wanted something a little different than the traditional margarita so ordered a white pizza with cherry tomatoes. Has a light coating of olive oil and was charred in just the right places. Loved the flavour. We ordered one pizza to split and they served it on 2 plates. Half a pizza and a small bottle of wine was the perfect size lunch. The place itself (main floor) was light and airy considering how hot it was outside. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Trianon Pizzeria Good pizza, no waiting at 3:30 pm on a Friday. Lots of pizza choices - ordered a Pizza Margarita with Buffalo cheese and a half bottle of their home labeled red wine. The service was fast and efficient especially helpful since I spoke no Italian. It came out very fast, probably because they were not busy - quit tasty pizza. The bill came to 15.60 euros, much cheaper than what I would have paid for much less quality in Seattle for wine and pizza. Nap time. I tried to get into Antica de Michele, but there was 25 people on the sidewalk and street waiting to get in. It didn't feel worth that kind of wait. I'm happy with my choice thanks to Rick Steves' recommendation. RECOMMENDED read more

If you're a visitor in Napoli: It'd be a shame not to come here. Like, seriously. Why would you come to Napoli and not come here? Keep in mind I forbade my friend from ordering pizza across northern Italy until we got to Napoli. Da Michele, Di Matteo, and Trianon are the contenders for the title of "best pizza in Napoli," which, really, translates to the Best Pizza in the World. Napoli is the only city I know that issues pizza-making LICENSES. Not all Napolitan joints have licenses, but those that contend for the title of being the best better have it. (I have not confirmed whether all three restaurants I mentioned have licenses, but don't rave reviews say a lot?) Of the three, I've only tried Trianon's pizza. I actually passed by Di Matteo during lunch hours and the throng of people around that hole in the wall was like seeing 13 year old girls around Justin Bieber. Because my friend and I had just finished eating good 2 lbs. of canoli, baba rum, and some other dessert at this point, we actually skipped out on Di Matteo. Alas. As for why I couldn't visit Da Michele (famed for being the pizza joint that Julia Roberts visits in Eat, Pray, Love) - if you come to Napoli during Ferie (week of religious holiday across Italy in mid-August), Trianon will be open and Da Michele will NOT be. So in my 3-day stay in Naples, I ate at Trianon twice, and each time I ate there, it was bumpin' with locals and visitors alike. One up for Trianon in my book. By the way, who are the people giving 2 euro signs for this place? It starts at 3.50 euros for a pizza. A whole pizza. Come on! Now that pricing is out of the way, what to get... is a hard question, but after I had the Margherita con uovo (Margherita with egg), I couldn't try other things. My friend ventured out. I stuck to what is good. If it ain't broke, don't tinker. The staff is ultra-friendly and will let you take a picture making pizza at the pizza oven upstairs :) Come, pray, eat - and fall in love. read more

These guys get all my stars. They are right down the street from the over crowded pizza place everyone is trying to get into due to the movie. The guys here are friendly and welcoming even late at night. Plus they have a variety of toppings and are all well priced. If I had to recommend one pizza place in Naples it would be here. We got the pie with olives capers and anchovies on it. I know it didn't sound great to everyone but.... Do you love bacon? The rich flavors and salty brine of a couple of anchovies on a pizza are amazing just like bacon. They have a second floor and it feels like you are going to a place for locals that hang out and have a pizza and beer. We only had room for one pizza but I felt bad so I ordered more beers. So many people leave the crust and some of the pizza it's really a better idea to plan to only eat 3/4 or half a pizza and bring friends to share with and enjoy. It's great for kids to enjoy the super soft crust. And the guys down stairs kept an eye on our stroller. Watch your head on the way up the stairs though. You will got it and there is padding there because they know it. read more

What a great pizza joint in Naples! My family and I were so happy to stumble across this restaurant. We came right when they opened, which was a smart decision since quite a number of people filed in after us as well. By 11, the restaurant was packed. We shared 3 pizzas between the 4 of us and it was more than enough! I'm drooling right now just thinking of their pizzas, but oh boy, was it amazing. read more

Excellent pizza, but I've never really had a bad pizza in Naples either. What more is there to say? I really enjoy the ambiance, the marble decor gives the place a Roman Empire-era feel to it and prices are reasonable, on par with other places. The pizzas have fresh tomatoes and cheese and ingredients and the flavors just burst in your mouth. So satisfying. They're all Campania-sourced. The crust is doughy at the ends and I use those parts to scrape up any remaining sauce or cheese that may have fallen off read more

We came here because Da Michele across the street was our original plan but the line JUST TO PLACE AN ORDER was an hour long. So we had no plans to eat at Trianon, but I believe in destiny and God is good! The restaurant had several tables seated but was not overcrowded. How this could be was flabbergasting to my friend and me because this pizza was bar none! I mean I would have to say it's even better than Mezzaluna in NYC and Totonno's in Coney. My girlfriend and I each got our own and ate every bit of it. We were both full but there's not a chance we were leaving even a half a slice uneaten. It was that amazing. We went on to a very posh and fabulous destination wedding in Amalfi after that, then to Capri,Poseidon, Ischia and Sardegna, and I can honestly say, without question, that it was the best meal we had, hands down. read more

Pizzeria Trianon - EXQUISITE!!!!!! - Pizza Near Me - Naples, NA

Classic original style pizzeria in Naples. If you want to taste authentic Napoletana style pizza without having to wait in the lines at the rival Da Michele then this is your place! I'm not the type of person who likes waiting hours for food though I've been known to do this multiple times. Everyone who visits Naples wants to go to Da Michele because they saw Julia Roberts fall in love with their pizza in Eat, Pray, Love. But, as your tour guide from Sorrento Coast Limo (SCL) told us, Pizzeria Trianon is just as good if not better and you don't have to stand in a queue all day. I have to say Rosario from SCL was right. This is on all accounts a very delicious pizza pie. Plus, each pie is the size of Jupiter it seems like. You'll definitely need a fork and knife to get through the saucer of pizza. Speaking of the pizza, the crust is crisp though with all they stack on the pie you do get a bit of soggy dough in the middle. If you're a fan of super crisp, almost potato-chip crisp like dough, then maybe you might not like it. Even so I found the dough to be expertly cooked with the right amount of wood-fire char in spots. The two pizzas we enjoyed were the Maria Sofia Margherita (4 euros) and the Margherita Salsiccia e Funghi (8 euros). It is incredible how much pizza you can get for that low price and we were absolutely stuffed after. I personally enjoyed the classic Maria Sofia because its was no-nonsense cheeze, tomato sauce, and crust. But don't get me wrong the Salsiccia e Funghi really had a nice savory kick to it and the sausage and mushrooms were juicy and delicious. You really can't go wrong at Pizza Trianon: no wait, massive pizzas, and a price that can't be beat. I may try Da Michele someday but I don't have a burning desire now that I know Pizza Trianon makes superb Napoletana style pizza. Tip: 15% service charge included. read more

Da Michele was closed. Trianon did not disappoint as Da Michele's rival as the best pizzeria in Naples since 1923. Also I overheard a man giving pizza advice on our flight to Naples. He said Trianon was the real thing. Located a block away from Da Michele, Trianon is huge! Three floors. A/C...very important on a hot August Day after you've been wandering around the city. Pizzas are also huge and range from 4-8 Euros. One pizza is more than enough for two. Unfortunately, my husband and I have hungry eyes. On our three trips to Trianon. We ordered two pizzas and had to roll each other out the door. You can see them be made as soon as you walk through the door in their large stone oven. They accept credit cards and have a 15% service charge added to your bill. Servers are quick and efficient but you've got to meet the actual pizza makers. They are the heart and soul of this pizzeria. I was taking pictures of the pizza maker taking out the pizza with a large wooden paddle and he pulled me into the cooking area to hold the paddle and had his coworker take a picture! Awesome! They were super friendly here. My husband was wearing a straw Fedora hat, and the pizza maker said, "We switch." He put my husband's hat on and gave my husband his white cooking cap. Laughs and pictures were had! Can't wait to go back next month! WIll definitely remember to save room for dessert at Polo Nord Gelateria (Naple's oldest gelateria) across the street next time! read more

Rating: 92/100 pts Pizzeria Trianon has been operating since 1923; the beautifully weathered mosaic oven inside will speak of that. For most of its existence, Trianon has been in fierce competition with the more traditional Pizzeria Da Michele, which staunchly offers only two varieties: Margherita and Marinara. Trianon, on the other hand, pampers patrons with a 3-page fold-out menu of any kind of pizza you could want, but in spite of the variety, execution is flawless. When coming here, instead of getting the standard Margherita, I took advantage of the extensive menu and ordered the Buffalo Margherita S.T.G. (with D.O.P. mozzarella), and the Lasagna Pizza, sharing both pies with a friend. (Cheesy Fact: Any cheese marked "D.O.P." is protected by law and must be produced in a certain region. Though "buffalo mozzarella" is a protected variety, the mozzarella usually eaten in the US is not actually protected buffalo mozzarella, but typically mozzarella produced from a cow, which costs less, and also has significantly less moisture. In fact, in Italian, this imposter mozzarella isn't even called mozzarella--they use the term "fior di latte", literally "milk cream".) The "splurge" for the D.O.P., at just a few euro more, was totally worth it. The cheese was both chewy and creamy at the same time, and clearly had a more substantial and natural texture than your standard "fior di latte" mozzarella. The cheese lies heavily over the super thin crust, requiring some assistance from silverware or some masterly folding in order to go from pan to mouth without major incident. The Lasagna Pizza, topped with frothy ricotta cheese and chopped prosciutto, was equally sensational, and served as a good contrast to the strictly Margherita pizzas I had been having thus far. Good right down to the last drop of dripping oil, it was the kind of pizza that you never want to end. Pizza was invented in Naples, and is one of Italy's gifts to the world. Even if food isn't one your priorities, enjoying some of the town's most celebrated and deeply established pizza should be on your to-do list. Pizzeria Trianon is a perfect spot for doing this. It amazes me that these pies cost only around $5-10, for a culinary experience you will likely remember for the rest of your life; these were certainly some of the best pies I've ever had. read more

Holy f***ing s**t - I've found my soul food. I highly highly recommend this place. My girlfriend and I wanted some good authentic pizza and had gone to L'Antica the night before, but we didn't want to wait another 2 hours to get in. We decided to go to this place because we had stumbled across it around the corner, looked it up, and saw very favourable reviews as Michele's rival. There was no line and EVERYONE was a local - a sure sign that it is a great place. This restaurant is a lot more spacious and the service is a lot more organized. The menu is also a lot more adventurous than Michele and we ordered accordingly. We chose the pizza with the DOP cheese (fantastic pizza where you can taste the difference in cheese), and the Pizza Forte (a spicy pizza with meat). Both pizzas arrived quickly and were so large they were falling off the plate. They were delicious and fairly reasonably priced (two pizzas and two drinks put us a little over 20 euros). Side note: the knives cut a lot better here and the washroom is nicer. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for good pizza but don't want to wait hours! read more

This pizza is well-regarded, and for good reason! My friend and I were looking for authentic Napoletana pizza, and we more than found it. The pizza itself is so perfect--a soft crust, but still with enough of a texture to be substantial. We got the marinara, which was a welcome change from all the cheese we've been eating in Italy. The ingredients were so fresh--especially the tomatoes. You could taste each ingredient distinctly but they also meshed really well together. Tomatoes, basil, garlic--you name it. ALSO THE PIZZA IS RIDICULOUSLY CHEAP. Like 5 euro for a huge, shareable pizza. Go go go read more

Great Authentic Pizza Experience at Pizzeria Trianon. Bucket List item check off list. 5 Stars!! It is going to be a while before I can eat any other pizza! Amazing! Worth the walk through Naples to find it. Where pizza was invented. . . Naples, Italy. Fierce competition with Da Michelle down the street (where Eat Pray Love was filmed) makes Pizzeria Trianon bake amazing pizza like they've been doing since 1923. Mozzarella DOP, means the mozzarella is protected by law. According to www.italy.it.com - "Mozzarella di bufala (or buffalo mozzarella) from Campania is made according to strict production rules that comply with procedures fine-tuned by the Consorzio di Tutela (Consortium for the Protection of buffalo mozzarella). Founded in 1981, it is the only institution recognized by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry to protect, monitor, valorize and promote mozzarella di bufala DOP from Campania. Thanks to the Consortium, the buffalo mozzarella from Campania was the only one of its kind to obtain European DOP recognition." Bucket list item for sure so when in Napoli, Eat Pray Love Pizza! read more
