Came here for dinner with my daughter, based on the reviews, and was not disappointed. This…read moreestablishment has a very charming vibe, with a back patio that's cool and quiet, away from the street. Its location near the amphitheater entrance of the Pompeii Archeological Park makes it very easy to find. The food was fantastic, the pasta was perfect. The service was absolutely top-notch as well. 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.

I love Italian food, but after having it for one week in Switzerland in the Italian side of the country and another week in Italy I was ready for a change. The place is next to the hotel I am staying at and it was very good, staff was friendly, good wine and it will not break the bank.

My wife and I had been wandering around trying to find the restaurant near the main entrance, but…read morewe were map-less and ended up further west towards the Villa dei Misteri. We were glad we ended up here though, as just outside the gate there was food that was better than reheated sandwiches and pizza. And older gentleman who appeared to be the owner chatted with us as sat down to re-charge after a long day walking in the sun. We told we him that we were just married, and without skipping a beat he asked us whether we wanted a boy or girl; we laughed it off and gave some non-committal answer. He even suggested a couple foods, gnocchi and seaweed fritters, as aphrodisiacs. It was all pretty amusing, and not being easily offended, we took it all in stride as being par for the course for an older Italian man. The place was cute in a very touristy way- lots of masks, greenery, and tons of lemons and oranges available that you can have in freshly squeezed drinks. In addition to the large sit-down area, you can get drinks and snacks to go if you just want to quickly pop in and out of Pompeii. We ordered a grilled/pickled veggie plate to start, and my wife ordered the gnocchi in red sauce for her main, and I just got the sausage dish. The veggie plate was very good; the peppers and grilled zucchini slices in olive oil were the best items on the plate, and they made for nice toppings on the table bread. We were also given a plate of seaweed fritters that were airy, just a little vegetal and quite salty, but that was right up my alley. I wouldn't call them an aphrodisiac, but they were very good. The sausage came with fries instead of salad but that's OK. It was thick and butterflied but was still very juicy and had a really good char flavour from the grill. The fries weren't anything special, just from frozen, but they were crispy enough to not be bad, and were good for dipping in the oil of the veggies. With the fries and apps that we had, it was a lot of food. My other half's gnocchi portion was huge. It was served on something more like a platter than a plate. It was in a simple red sauce, and the gnocchi seemed to have some sort of skin on them that made me suspect they were from a bag as well, or at least not particularly fresh. The food was kind of hit or miss, but was likely still better than the reheated options in Pompeii itself, and the relaxed atmosphere and entertaining owner made it worth wandering off track for.

We grabbed two sandwiches and drinks, which were good to give you energy for the amount of walking your about to do for the rest of the day. The service was good for a tourist spot! I just wished they had more fans or even AC running because it was about 35-40C that day and it was very toasty inside.

Saw this restaurant as we got out from the Pompei Scavi Villa Dei Misteri station via the…read moreCircumvesuviana line from Naples. Hungry and tired after that day's journey from Rome, we decided to try this one out. We cringed at the thought that we were met by a "barker" as we walked by with promises of "fresh juices" and delicious pizza, but being thirsty and hungry, we willed ourselves to enter this establishment right in front of the Villa Dei Misteri entrance of the Pompeii ruins. Our server was par for Italian customer service (no smile and no small talk) but that's a given with most of Italy. The juices were indeed refreshing but I think the OJ had add-on sugar on it because it was just too sweet. We were surprised by the quality of the pizza (our first in Napoles, the birthplace of pizza) and the freshness of the seafood in our pasta. No additional parmesan or red pepper flakes needed. For some reason, our server got us bottles of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Maybe because we spoke English, hence she thought "American". Well surprise, surprise. I actually enjoyed the Quattro Formaggi (four cheese) pizza with the dipping sauce made common allover the US of A. FYI, bread service isn't free in Italy. A great experience. It fueled and refreshed us weary travelers to go through the rest of the afternoon and night in this quiet Italian town.
