Portion good for 2 and the flavor is out of this world. You can taste the smokiness of the mussels and has this very distinct umami flavor. Highly recommend. 2. Grilled octopus - 10/10. The pulpo was cooked perfectly, nice char on the tentacles and the fried leeks and the octopus mayo and fennel cream was a great sauce on the side 3. Grilled swordfish - 8/10. I can taste that it wasn't the freshest fish but still good. Well seasoned 4. Spaghetti with clams - 12/10 - highly recommend this dish. The pasta was perfectly AL DENTE!! Great flavor and love the addition of the nuts and croutons. Finished off with a dessert and a cup of cappuccino. Highly recommend this place. It's close to the port so if you're on a cruise, great place to have a meal! Service was quick and nice outdoor seating as well.

Disappointed. I…read moreread great reviews and couldn't wait to eat here. That said, the tomatoes in the Caprese salad were not ripe. After being in Positano for a week I was excited to have my last Italian Caprese salad. This was very disappointing. The tomatoes had very little flavor and were far from being ripe. The house wine was not worth the price. The ragu gnocchi was tasty with a delightful Smokey flavor but was not as light as gnocchi I had in other places. The bread was tough and stale. Service was very good! I'm disappointed for my last night in Italy but even so, we had a good time. I do think their ragu is excellent.

The food at this place was wholly mediocre and not what someone comes to Italy to have. Their house white wine was flavorless. While I liked the char on the bread, the bruschetta lacked olive oil and garlic. My wife had the ragu over manfredi, I had the genovese over ziti. Neither of our dishes were all that notable. Tandem has 7 locations in Naples and it seems they stay packed. The front desk people highly recommended it to us, and it felt like all the other people were also there on hotel recommendations. If your front desk people recommended Tandem to you, I recommend you take their suggestions with more than a few grains of salt.

The menu was pretty limited. The mixed grill was meh and the swordfish was dry and tasteless. The overall surroundings were pretty, but this restaurant faced a small marina with boats that kept smacking each other. Not the restaurant's fault, but didn't add to the experience. Overall if you're in the neighborhood and can't get into the place you wanted, go ahead and try it - but our experience wasn't great

The host welcomed us warmly and speaks fluently in at least 3 different languages. He offered us to try out some of his wines to help us in our choice, and the choice wasn't easy as quite a few were really good. We then got our plates, and that was the coup-de-grace. The penne al ragu were perfect, and even the simpler tomato-mozzarella my girlfriend ordered tasted like rainbows had been used in the recipe. No, sincerely, go there. You'll be welcomed and eat very well.

But with all this histry, it's strange that you could not find real Spanish food anywhere. Until now. Chef Carlos knows his food, and know how to bring Spanish culinary traditions to life, like his Salt Cod with spinach, raisins and pine nuts, or clams in grean sauce. And their Sangria is the only decent one in town. Small and hidden away around hte corner from the Gran Bar Riviera. I'll be back. Presto

In Naples at the end of a three week trip, tapas sounded good, so we got to the restaurant tonight…read morejust as they opened (without reservation), and got seated immediately. Just a note, I would recommend the reservation, they filled up as we were leaving. We started with a pitcher of sangria, and it was perfect. Not to sweet, just right. My wife and I had the tasting menu, and loved every dish. We had the Salmorejo, croquet of ham, chorizo, frittata of potato, and the meat paella. We could barely finish it all, and hated to leave any. We are not picky eaters, but we know good food, and this was very good. Dessert was a small truffle and a shot of liqueur. They speak good English, service was great, price was beyond reasonable. I rarely give out fives, and this place deserves every star.
