"I loved the experience of Sorbillo. It's a perfect mixture of incredible pizza, lots of choice, delicious wine and great atmosphere."
Read the full review..."We arrived at 3.30pm on a Tuesday afternoon, assuming it would be a quiet time for this hugely popular (especially since "Eat, Prey, Love" filmed a scene here) restaurant, but we still had wait an hour for a table. Go to the front, grab yourself a numbered ticket and wait for your number to be called."

Read the full review..."I went for lunch on a slightly wet Thursday and was seated immediately and had a pizza in front of me only a few minutes later. I imagine at peak times you will have to wait as it's one of the highest rated pizzerias in Naples."

Read the full review..."I arrived at about 10.30pm on a Friday night, hoping it was late enough to get in easily. Instead there was a large crowd gathered outside and when I put my name down, despite only being one person, I was told the wait would still be an hour."
Read the full review..."One of the very few times I've strayed from the classic pizzas, I was tempted by the two specialities here. The first is Pizza Attilio and is split in to nine different slices with toppings chosen by the chef."

The pizzas are amazing, featuring great Neapolitan pizza dough and some of the finest local ingredients from Campania like bright yellow piennolo tomatoes and strutto, a local lardo."

Read the full review..."To serve truly great Neapolitan pizza to 200 people at a time brothers Francesco and Salvatore Salvo procure the best information and ingredients available. When the third-generation pizzaioli are not analyzing how flour, yeast, temperature, and maybe 20 other variables affect the dough, they’re nurturing lasting relationships with the best suppliers."
Read the full review..."In Naples there’s always something new to try, as our bakers definitely like to spoil us. Because two sfogliatella versions weren’t enough, a pastry shop has invented a new variation on the theme that has immediately gone viral on the net… and in every other shop."
Read the full review..."La Masardona has been specialising in deep-fried calzoni since the 1930s, when head chef Enzo Piccirillo’s family began selling them to hungry market labourers heading home from work. Intriguingly, the pizzeria is named after a formidable female forebear of Piccirillo’s, whose job as “La Masardona” was to deliver secret messages verbally between revolutionaries."
More details..."Pizza portafoglio is the Neapolitan solution to pizza without queuing: it translates as wallet-shaped pizza, and is relatively small, folded into quarters and served from the restaurant window wrapped in brown paper for hungry passersby. The Tutino family have been making pizza for five generations and keep no fewer than three wood-fired ovens blazing to keep up with demand."

More details..."Well and truly off the beaten track, in the northern outskirts of the city, Carminiello is as famous for its selection of freshly fried treats as its pizza: battered sliced aubergine, croquettes and rice arancini piled up behind the glass counter at the entrance. Just beyond the airport but without a tourist in sight, it makes for the perfect last pizza in Naples before getting on the plane home."

"If you are heading to a football match at the Stadio San Paolo in Fuorigrotta (Napoli’s home ground), it would be inexcusable to miss out on a pre-game visit to Fratelli Cafasso, run by one of the great pizza-making families in the city. The Cafasso brothers make traditional mouth-watering pizza served a little smaller than usual, meaning you won’t be too lethargic to sing through the litany of chants expected of you at the match."

"Birth place of the pizza margherita in 1889."
More details..."Salvatore and Carla are La Sanità’s golden couple. He was the son of the prized pizza chef Ciro Oliva and she was the pretty, well to-do daughter of the famous neighbourhood tailor Angelo O’ Sarto."
