I highly recommend this restaurant for a casual evening with friends, or a quiet evening with a date.

The desert was heavenly, and the pasta is home-made. But the number-one best thing about this restaurant was the service. Our server, Roberto, went above and beyond to ensure that my family had exceptional service. He speaks incredible English, and he even made drawings for my kids! I will definitely be coming back in the future, and I insist anyone coming through Pompeii visit.

We had three pastas, one pizza, caprese salad, and waters all under $100 euro!! Our server was an older gentleman who was absolutely hilarious! He was great! There were also food runners that were amazing at their jobs and served you as much bread as you could eat! The food was all sooo fantastic and delicious too. The atmosphere was great alongside the service. And at the end of the meal we were served the limoncello which was honestly the best I've had so far in Italy! This has been my favorite experience food wise since getting to Italy! 10/10 come here!
