    Ziti Genovese
    Kim V.

    We came here after a long afternoon of sightseeing. This restaurant was recommended to us so we had to give it a try. We were a part of 4 and were seated easily. We ordered several appetizers and an entree each along with a few desserts. MONTANARA RAGU I FRITTI S.B. PARMIGIANA MELANZANE - Eggplant POLPETTE FRITTE PATATE - Meatball POLPO ALLA BRACE - Octopus GENOVESE - Meat sauce pasta MANDORLATO NOCCIOLA - Hazelnut nougat TIRAMISU The Octopus was particularly good. The presentation was lovely and the it was very well cooked. The pasta had a great bite to it. The eggplant was quite tasty. Desserts were very good as well. Overall, I can see why this came highly recommended.

    If you're staying in Naples for even a night, YOU HAVE TO EAT HERE. We stayed in Naples for 3 nights and were not impressed with the food until this night. Signora Bettola is an adorable, homey restaurant with mostly locals. We ordered the bruschetta as a starter which was tasty and then the eggplant Parmesan to share. It was by far the highlight of our meal and we had to order a second one after only a few bites. The pasta I had seen online wasn't available that day so I opted for something that they recommended to be similar. However, it was a different taste than I was looking for, though it could've gotten lost in translation and misunderstood! The tiramisu was also super delicious and came out with a unique presentation. Can't recommend this place enough for the eggplant parm alone!

    Literally stayed at the hotel next door and the grocery store was to close so it was decision to eat, rush or go to grocery and come back. Well no one was here when we went by the restaurant( no one we were the first). Rushed and left the grocery store as they were closing and came back to the restaurant and there was a long line. I could not believe it. I know it has to be really good if there is a long line. We were told 45 min so we went and put our groceries up and came back and still waited but it wasn't an unbearable wait. The weather was nice outdoors so it wasn't bad. We finally came inside and it was just the cutest theme. If you spent time in Naples and visited different islands you will get the decor. The hostess was nice. Unfortunately the waiter we had was I believe tired or overwhelmed. Felt rushed vs another waited near and was friendly with the patrons. One of my friends speaks Italian so as soon as she did.that helped. I asked what was good and it was the eggplant pasta. I wanted pistachio for dessert but they ran out. But whatever he recommended was really good. The wine was good as well. I would definitely be back next season and if you ever come please come early and do not wait.

    Ottimo posto .. si manga bene qui ! il servizio, il cibo e atmosfera sono grande.. Wonderful little trattoria near elegant Chiaia , Napoli

    Fried squid and fish

    Some of the best food i've ever had in my life, particularly the pasta dish! The bruschetta was also stellar.

    Great food, service really good. Nice decor, a little small but has a very nice cozy ambiance/feel. Bruschetta 100% recommend.

    Delicious and cute place. Laundry decor hanging from the ceiling makes you feel like you're having a home cooked meal in the yard. We were sad they were sold out of several items that had caught our eye, but not disappointed in our orders: muscles, grilled peppers, escarole, pasta with crab, pasta with the catch of the day and spaghetti with olive oil and zucchini. All very fresh and tasty. We tried to resist but could not pass up sharing a delightful baba to cap things off.

    Meatballs

    Casual unassuming restaurant that has Fantastic food. Meatball with pine nuts inside were fantastic. House wine very reasonable. If you get there after 7 you will likely need a reservation. Pasta Genovese was awesome. Would definitely recommend.

    Single-handedly the best food I've had in my entire life. The flavors of each meal I've eaten have been incredibly decadent. The courgette pasta and the tiramisu are to die for!! The service is quick, everyone is so friendly, and the decor is authentic and beautiful. Signora bettola best believe I will be back!

    Fried assorted seafood (shrimp, baby octopus, fish)
    Joseph T.

    We stumbled upon this spot at random, and were glad that we did! We showed up around noon on a weekday, and while it was empty when we arrived, it filled up quickly with folks who were there for work lunches--besides our table, everyone else was dressed in business attire. There were no other tourists, and only one of the small handful of employees spoke any English. Setting: 5/5 It was in an alleyway rather close to the water, but far enough that tourists didn't stop by. The interior was quiet, comfortable, and well decorated with tomatoes, peppers, and packages of pasta hanging on display and with a fairly clean restroom in the back. (We guessed that some of these were actually real, since who would buy fake tomatoes for decoration if they are wrinkly and drying?) Food: 5/5 Among the things we ordered were an appetizer of fried assorted seafood (with shrimp, baby octopus, and fish), an octopus salad, seafood risotto, a ragu pasta dish, and a grilled squid. The fried seafood was solid. Well fried, but not overly cooked. The baby octopus was similar to chipiron in Spain, which I greatly enjoyed. The octopus salad was absolutely delicious. The octopus was fresh and perfectly cooked, giving the meat a great texture and sweetness. The seafood risotto was fantastic as well, cooked in a well-made seafood broth and with plenty of shrimp, mussels, and at least three kinds of clams. The ragu dish was a miss. While the pasta was made well, the sauce was overly salty (though we realized that was often the case in Italy.) Overall, this dish was nothing special. Our favorite dish was the grilled squid. The squid was incredibly fresh, and as such, had a great, sweet natural flavor to it, which we in the States aren't used to, since almost all of the squid we have access to is frozen. The squid was grilled well, and the combination of the sweetness from the squid and the char from the grill was absolutely phenomenal. (We also ordered two of their daily lunch specials, which came with a pasta dish, a main dish, and a drink. For the most part, this was nothing special.) Service: 4/5 At first they were very slow to wait on our table. It took a bit of an effort to flag down a waiter for water and to give our orders. I'm not sure if this was because of the language barrier, because we were foreigners, or because we showed up before the lunch rush. Eventually, they became more attentive, and by the end of the meal, the one English-speaking waiter became very friendly with us. All in all, this was low-key one of our better meals in Italy. Glad we stumbled upon this place!

    I haven't had a server more rude than this in a long time…read more We arrived when the restaurant was full, so we waited at the door. No acknowledgement of any kind by the server, who was a lady walking around inside. She was the only server, but there are only 9 or so tables in the small space so she definitely saw us since she walked by to various tables. When a table left, the bus boy cleaned it and motioned us to sit. Once we were ready to order, we waited. ...and waited, and waited. So we raised our hand for a few minutes straight, while the lady continued to walk to other tables and ignore us for some reason. Then the table next to us got a new party. Finally, the bus boy saw our raised hand came over, and I asked him to call the lady over. He did, we saw. And then she proceeded to take the order of the table next to us, who sat down more than 10 minutes after we did. They even looked at us apologetically. Finally, after putting in that table's order, she came to us. So she clearly knew we were waiting. I don't understand why she was somehow prejudiced to ignore us, but I was about to just leave. And maybe I should have - the pizza honestly wasn't that great. My pizza had mushrooms were canned and flavorless, and chewy thick dough that I didn't end up finishing. We also had a variation of diavola that came with eggplant, and it was slightly better but still nowhere near as flavorful as other spots we tried in Naples. Don't bother coming here. There are so many other spots with better food and service.

    Meh, it's pretty good. Stopped by because it was close to our Airbnb and came highly recommended by…read moreour host. It was pretty packed inside but takeaway service was fast and friendly. The pizza was good but didn't really blow me away. We got the margherita and a two other pizzas which I can't remember the name of. The crust wasn't as chewy or stretchy as I imagined it would be. The edges weren't crispy or very thick like I expected either. There's certain things I expect to see in Neapolitan pizza which I just wasn't getting from Pavia. I got pizza elsewhere in Naples the next day and noticed the crust was much different and had singed crust by the wood fired oven. Pavia is OK but I've honestly had similar pizza back in the states. It's a good option if you're nearby but you may find something better if you look a little further.

    Yelp Review #25 (2026)…read more Visited in June 2026. There are two lines when arriving. There is a to go line that's pretty short, an a dine in ticket line that you receive from the employee by the entrance. If you visit their museum to learn about the history of Antica, then your indoor seating is expedited. After the museum, we sat down and ordered our delicious pizza. They offer four different types of pizza.

    We heard 100X that this needed to be a stop on our trip, so we came by today for lunch…read more There was no signs or direction on how to order, and a lot of tourists seemed confused...no worries, we asked. A long line on the side of the building was for ordering to go. And if you wanted to sit down you grabbed a ticket number. We got a number and waited. Our number was skipped, but we thought maybe they were calling small parties first, we were a group of 5. My husband went to show the man our number and he said, you need to wait and so we did. Another 10 or so groups were called and got a little impatient so my husband went again and tried to speak with the man. He sort of yelled at my husband that why didn't he come tell him sooner....which he had tried? Anyways. He did try to accommodate us quickly after that, but we did wait about 40mins total I would say. We sat down and a middle aged woman took our order but she was quite rude. The whole time she was staring down a table next to us, it seemed she was focused on if they were paying their bill to the counter instead of her. (We understood later why she was so worried about this). We got 3 pizzas and 4 small cokes for the table. Our pizza came basically uncooked. The pizza was raw and soaked and we couldn't even cut it. The only part that was sort of cooked was the crust. There was too much commotion in the store to even talk to anyone. So we ate the edges, drank our sodas and just wanted to leave. We looked around for a server but we didn't see anyone so, my husband got up to pay the man at the little desk at the front and we found out they charged us 1€ a person to sit down, so a 5€ total for us, which we understood as a service fee, that's fine makes sense since we used up some space. My father and I were last to leave the table and this original female server comes yelling at us that we didn't pay. So I show her the receipt, I tried to be understanding that maybe they have dealt with people skipping out? So I tried not to taking the shouting too much to heart. I don't know but I was calm and wanted her to feel comfortable that we had paid our bill. She nods that she sees it and then proceeded to keep her voice raised and tell us that this didn't include her tip which was mandatory. I don't know why I would tip you for crap service and uncooked food. My father wanted to leave without making a scene so he dug out 3€ from his pocket for her. But I regret not telling her to keep their voice down and that if a tip was required they should put it on the bill and walk out. 0/5 Service 1/5 Food

    I know I've written a great review for pizza for a couple other places in Naples, but the pizza…read morehere takes it. In reading the other reviews, there can be long waits here, and I can certainly understand why. Even in a city with so many pizza spots, this one stands out in the very best way. I also wanted to address a misconception. Multiple reviews here mention how the pizza is doughy in the center. Proper Napoli pizza is supposed to be this consistency. It's supposed to be runny and doughy in the middle, so they 100% do that right at this place. Also, it will not be sliced; you are to cut it yourself. We lucked out not having to wait. We went to Gino e Toto Sorbillo (which is supposed to be the original restaurant) and sat in the horseshoe. Our server Francesco was fantastic, giving great recommendations and being friendly and welcoming. We shared the margheritta bufala DOP and diavolla. Both were excellent! I preferred the margheritta whereas my husband preferred the diavolla. I am convinced that you really can't go wrong here though. The pizza dough itself had great elasticity while also having a thin yet light, fluffy, and airy crust. Apparently, they ferment the dough for 48 hours. The difference is striking. The pomodoro Italiano sauce is also so simple yet tasty and well seasoned. For me, the saltiness of the salame in the diavolla overpowered the delicious other flavors of the pizza, but it was still tasty. My husband loved that one though. In my opinion, this place has achieved pizza perfection, and I literally cannot imagine how anyone could make a better or more perfect pizza. Overall, this is a great casual spot, and I would not hesitate to come here during my next visit to Naples...even one hour would be worth the wait.

    If you're in the historic district in Naples, depending on who and how you ask, you may get pointed…read morein different directions to Sorbillo's. Why? Multiplie locations exist, six in Naples, three on the same street! At first I wondered if it was a "Ray's Pizza" situation* though turns out they are all legitimately related, arising from the success of the pizzeria opened in by Gino Sorbillo. Aside from Naples they have locations in several other Italian cities (Rome, Milan, Bergamo, Turin, Bologna, Padua, and Genoa), even a location on Tokyo. This specific location where the pin is dropped on the Yelp map is for Gino e Tito Sorbillo, eponymously named for the now famous pizza chef and his brother, and the nicer sit-down version of the restaurant.** This is the original shop where it all began, and the business' historical headquarters. Outside, you'll see a couple paper cutouts of the chef, with a chef's coat and a smile. The unwavering popularity of their pizza is undeniable--one look at the crowds outside this storefront and it's immediately apparent. Be prepared as the wait is not for the faint-hearted or the extremely hungry. Luckily I had a snack before arriving (see separate review for Sfogliatelle Mary). 9:05pm: I arrived to a semi-circular crowd centered around the doorway of Gino e Tito Sorbillo. Headed up the hostess stand and she said 20-25 minutes so I figured why not. 9:30pm: the crowd around the door seems to have increased, at least stayed the same, a handful of parties were called up. I realize now that the hostess gives everyone the same estimate. Watching many parties that were there when I arrived--they are still waiting too. 9:50pm: I'm considering leaving at this point since there's significant second-hand smoke from multiple people smoking outside, though the crowd of people in front of the restaurant is going strong. 10:00pm: I go up to the stand and ask how much longer the wait will be, she says "oh you're a single diner right? I forgot, let me check." 10:05pm: she calls my name and ushers me inside. I'm seated at bar table seating at a window which works for me. Staff is quick to pass a menu, and take an order. 10:20pm the wait for the pizza after ordering was faster than expected. It only took about 7-8 minutes. Getting to the pizza--if you look up the definition of a Neapolitan style pizza, this is it! Served straight outta the oven as an entire pie, extremely thin, saucy in the middle, floppy base though evenly leopard-spotted on the bottom and the crust, pillowy and airy crust with a slightly crisp exterior. The tomato sauce was very fresh, and I loved the varying texture of the dough, great baked/slightly charred flavor. I got the Antonio which included regionally sourced cherry tomatoes, olives, capers, anchovies, basil. While I love both ingredients, the fish and capers together unfortunately were way too salty, I had to pick off some of these. Also I have to say as the pizza cooled, the room temp saucy dough wasn't quite as appealing as when it was hot. lol so if you consume it quickly it'll be fine! The serving size was also very generous, see pic with my hand next to the pie, I couldn't finish it in the end! Staff was quite friendly overall and I appreciated that they didn't pack the house or rush diners inside even with so many people waiting. That being said it was still pretty busy so you'll have to flag them down. After the meal, bring your bill up to the register to pay. *if you're familiar with NYC you'll know there are about 20 different Ray's Pizzas all claiming to be the original, which one is real? no one knows... **The other two locations on the same street are more casual, one is a takeout spot probably to handle the overflow from the main restaurant.
