This small local restaurant is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing, the service is warm and attentive, and the atmosphere is cozy. Plus, the prices are very reasonable, making it a fantastic spot for a great meal without breaking the bank. Please remember to leave a tip to support the wonderful staff!

Our last lunch in Naples . Fantastic meal! The baby squid fritters were so delicious, not oily at all. Crispy and not overly salted. The fruity de mare and meat balls were good too.We had an octopus pasta with black olives, another dish that blew us off . Polpo was well braised with a bite, paired with black olives and tomatoes. Friendly service. Please remember to come early as it's really a very small restaurant.

This was a very good restaurant. The staff were very polite. The food canes quickly. The area isn’t great. Seams like a street its on is little rough part of town. But prices are fair. I recommend it.

The best polpo alla luciana (octopus) and spaghetti alla pignatiello (seafood pasta) I’ve had in Italy! The fried calamari were amazing too. Definitely recommend, super fresh and a price you won’t find in many places… 34 for everything including service & water! Waiters were lovely too, and the chef brought us the pasta himself

A restaurant to come back. The best: food flavor and portions. It is not only about the great taste of the food here but the portions are enormous. Just a dish of pasta to be more than full. I tried the pasta with octopus, absolutely amazing. The attention is kind, they speak English. Inside is cozy and warm. The worst: white wine house was bad. Prices are more than ok for the quantity and quality of food.
