    I'm told this is the place for Ragù! So we went and got our fix. It was really tasty! Don't let the small portions fool you because the dishes are flavorful and rich! For dinner, it's best to reserve a table regardless of the number in your party, especially for warm evenings. There's outdoor seating and cozy indoor seating available. The servers are great and do their ultimate best to be speedy. It's crowded! I know it's probably typical for elbow to elbow seating, but because it's small, crowded, and lively, you can't always hear your own conversation. Also, the guests beside you like to look at you and your food. The guests are good for business and shouldn't have any bearing on their service, so five stars to their food and servers. I shall return to try other items on their menu!

    Gnocchi

    While I'm not a hater of pasta, by no means would it be my first choice but without having pasta in Italy I feel like I can be considered a criminal by some grandmothers. As per another suggestion by our Air BNB host (thanks angie) we arrived at Tandem. Actually we arrived at the other location first, but were told (at 730pm) that the next table would be around 1030pm but they promptly made a reservation for us at this location and after a short walk we arrived. Upon our arrival, a really friendly and humorous English speaking waiter arrived at our table and brought a little cup with a couple types of pasta, explaining to us their names, characteristics and how they were served which was very helpful. We ended up ordering the gnocchi with ragu and mozzarella, and the P or B something one which had the shape of a very big tube with Ragu and ricotta cheese and Baba to finish it off. The gnocchi was really chewy in the good way and soaked up a lot if the sauce but what really was the best was the other big tube pasta which was the cooked al dante (my first time having realy al dante) with a great chew paired with the meaty and creamy sauce was simply delicious. To finish it off we were recommended to try the baba a famous dessert of Naples which was basically a pound cake soaked in liqueur. I liked it but didn't see it as the best.

    I ordered the gnocchi with ragu and provola and my husband got the rigatoni with ragu. The waiters were so helpful explaining the different dishes.

    We had initially tried going to one of the other locations but it was packed! Thankfully the host was kind enough to call and get us a reservation at the closest location (this one). When we arrived there was very few people and we were seated immediately. The ambience is great at this location though. Very quaint and quiet inside. We ordered some of the Ragu as an appetizer, a pear and walnut salad, as wel as gnocchi with some of the ragu. The ragu is delectable! We didn't leave any left in our appetizer portion and it was so good on the gnocchi. My wife's salad was excellent as well. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and their house wine!

    Love the ambiance.

    I, like the first reviewer, went to the sister restaurant, Tandem. Highly rated but closed when we (my co-workers and I) visited. They gave us directions to Tandem Steak and called ahead to "block" (reserve) a table for us. We loved every aspect of the place! The staff was incredible -- very good English, very helpful, described all aspects of our dinner, very responsive (they put a plush hand at each table that you can wave!), and one gentleman was the star of many videos that they produced to highlight their sauces and food. My friend from Georgia was hesitant to order steak ("I have never had a good steak in Europe!") but I talked him into to trying it and we both really enjoyed the steak. All of us had pasta and it was, true to their word, outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant. I'll try Tandem someday (I recognized the gentleman at Tandem that helped us in the videos, too) but I'm in no hurry -- Tandem Steak is first on my list!

    Tandem is amazing. We went to the original location for lunch without a reservation, and they told…read moreus that they were booked up, but that they had a second location a few blocks away that could likely accommodate us. They picked up the phone, made a call, and a table was secured. We walked over, and were immediately seated. The waiter brought a box of multiple shapes of pasta, explained what each was called, and which sauces were appropriate with each. We ended up ordering caprese salad (the freshest buffalo mozzarella we ever had), one pasta, and the bread loaf filled with meatballs and ragu. We were in heaven, and the portions were tremendous. We left stuffed, satisfied, and paid about 45 euros for the meal. Highly recommended!

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.

    Di Matteo was hands down my favorite pizza stop in Naples…read more I ordered the Taste of Italy, which includes a slice of each different pie plus their fried pizza, and it's the perfect way to experience what they do best. Every slice was flavorful, well balanced, and unmistakably Neapolitan, with each one bringing something a little different to the table. The fried pizza really stood out, light, crisp, and not greasy at all. This place captures everything I love about pizza in Naples: confidence, tradition, and execution without overthinking it. A must-stop if you're serious about pizza.

    Trattoria Don Vincenzo was practically walking distance from where we were staying on Spacanapoli…read morein Naples. Simple menu and super popular spot. We decided to come here for dinner and were craving a good seafood pasta. They also had their famous Seafood Risotto for two and we could decide, so we shared the seafood pasta as a starter and the Risotto for two for our entree. Service was great and friendly and our pasta was to die for! Spaghetti cooked perfectly al dente mixed with mussels and eggplant topped with parmigiano reggiano. Simple, straightforward, and super tasty. The vibe is awesome with outdoor dining and people watching going on, people are just in the moment of things and conversations the night away, NOT on their phones. I was expecting a pot of risotto to come to our table to split, but we were pleasantly surprised and super pumped that two full sized plates were delivered, fully loaded with clams, prawns and langoustines and a perfectly done risotto on the bottom. For 28 euros?(about $33 usd) You definitely won't get even ONE plate for that price in America! Needless to say, we were stuffed by the end of our meal and decided to walk it off in the bustling streets before seeking out dessert options.
