Tandem is amazing. We went to the original location for lunch without a reservation, and they told…read moreus that they were booked up, but that they had a second location a few blocks away that could likely accommodate us. They picked up the phone, made a call, and a table was secured. We walked over, and were immediately seated. The waiter brought a box of multiple shapes of pasta, explained what each was called, and which sauces were appropriate with each. We ended up ordering caprese salad (the freshest buffalo mozzarella we ever had), one pasta, and the bread loaf filled with meatballs and ragu. We were in heaven, and the portions were tremendous. We left stuffed, satisfied, and paid about 45 euros for the meal. Highly recommended!

Did not prefer the flavor and think the meatball one would have been better. We ordered a fresh pasta that seemed off as well. Busy place. Wanted to like it more than we did. Service was ok.

Forget Florence and Pisa and Montalcino and head south to where the coffee and bread are ten times better. This second story gem is down at sea level in the port of Pozzuoli, and I have eaten there about twenty times. Be advised: the menu is very, very limited. You can get a starter of octopus or a plate of olives. There are a couple of seafood pastas and risotto pescatore. Then you can get some fish or some fried calamari or shrimp. That's about it. But the guys who run the place are great, and I love to watch them interact with foreigners --- by which I mean anyone who lives more than ten miles away!! I first ate here in about 1986, and the young guy that was our waiter then was our waiter in April of this year, and one of the old cooks was still down in the kitchen. Don Antonio and his wife are long gone, but his son is still there every night it is open. I highly recommend this place for an adventurous eater, but don't go there and waste a table if you are wanting some sort of special fancy meal. This is where small groups of old friends go for good food in a simple setting.

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.

I will definitely be coming back in the future, and I insist anyone coming through Pompeii visit.

Our waiter knew just enough English and we knew just enough Spanish/ Italian to get by. The menu here is QR code, but there is little cell reception there for our internet to work. Overall the food was delicious. This penne was so cheesy and tomatoey. The mussels were cooked in a simple salt and pepper broth really allowing their natural flavors to pop. Both the mussels and the lemons were from the Almafi coast!

We had a lovely lunch under lemon trees here. Our favorites:…read more* Scoglio 1903: seafood pasta with lots of mussels, clams, and shrimp * Spaghetti and clams: made with parsley oil, so not your typical spaghetti and clams * Cubotto di manzo: beef steak The restaurant is best for their seafood dishes, although the beef steak was seared well and probably one of the better steaks I've had in Italy. The non-seafood pastas were just so-so. We also ordered the pasta with truffles and pasta alla Nerano (pasta with zucchini sauce); both were forgettable unfortunately (1 star off). Bread was freshly baked in house and tasted amazing. Fresh basil leaves and lemon zest were added to olive oil, which was a nice change from traditional bread and plain olive oil. Service could be a little bit more attentive, because we were not given a plate to discard shells from our seafood pasta or a steak knife for steak. We had to ask for them specifically. LOL.
