Sitting in a dark and humid apartamento round a little table eating sfogliatelle the size (and…read moreweight!) of bricks with two Sofia Lauren look-alikes espousing the virtues of our sfogliatelle while the radio murmers "honesty is such a lonely word" against the hum of scooters and the constant din of inconsequential arguments drifting from the street. A scene like this can only happen in Naples. The substantial yet delicate (it's the subtle hint of orange blossom that does me in!) sfogliatelle held in such high esteem? From the age old sfogliate Napoletane, Pintauro across from the elegant Galleria Umberto (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/80613-Galleria-Umberto-I-Neapel) . And what could make such a deliciously Neapolitan moment even more luscious? To get up from that little table amble down the apartamento's half-finished stairwell and trot along the cobbled streets with these belle napolitane , pass the shrines and the trash to another little table at a quaint and noisy pizzeria (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/576785-Manfredi-Naples?hide_related=true) where alici and pizza fritta and glorious moscardini affrogati await!

He made sure we were comfortable with AC and good music and told us a lot about the city and the area. When you come in, he treats you like you are a friend coming to his house. We tried leaving a tip for his amazing service, but he refused. He said he gives great service because he loves people and loves what he does. You can tell he is proud of his drinks and makes everything with love! I wish i was in town for longer i would definitely come back. There's indoor and outdoor seating and his coworker (i forget her name sorry) was super sweet as well.

I liked how many options they had and the menu was prominent with all the shots right above the bar so that was helpful. Ordered two shots, they looked cool and tasted good. The reason I'm giving a 3 star review is because of the bartender's attitude. It was a younger looking man who was kinda helpful with ordering but didn't seem like he wanted to be talking to us. He made some rude comments that ruined our vibe and the whole experience. After this interaction we immediately paid and left. I would say this COULD be a fun place if you didn't interact with this particular bartender. Hopefully he's the odd one out. We would have stayed much longer and had more drinks had it not been for him.

Held in high regard by Neapolitans, and equally famous with tourists, it is at Via Arena della Sanita' 24 that visitors will find bright lights from 06h00 to 22h00 daily, staff the perpetually smiling sort with English fluency that makes ordering easy. A full-service eatery with al fresco seating, it is across tiered-shelves that Poppella's good are displayed, usual suspects such as Cannoli and Tiramisu offered alongside Loaves of Bread, Entremets and Viennoiserie. Not a place for the indecisive, though fair prices and smaller-sized versions of Pastries such as Lobster Tails full of Chocolate allow guests to order a variety, it was in exchange for €10.90 that seven items were plated and served alongside Espresso, both Baba gone in two-bites and the one soaked in boozy Syrup less sweet than many. Of course serving Sfogliatella, though not warm-to-order like Napoli's best, it was once shattering layers were separated and citrusy Ricotta consumed that Fiocco di Neve took center-stage, the "Snowflake" introduced around 2001 surprisingly light despite Fillings of Pastry Cream and Cheese in a variety of flavors from which the original Vanilla reigned supreme.
