If you are in the Bay of Naples area the National Park of Vesuvius is a must visit. Tickets are required to walk to the top from the drop off point, pre-booking is recommended. It takes approx 45 - 60 mins to reach the top on a path of medium incline. There are view points on the way to catch that breath and admire the surrounding area. As you reach the summit you get to see into the crater and witness the sulphur and gasses escaping.....she is very much active. There are a number of tourist market stalls on the way selling T-Shirts and trinkets. At the summit there is a small cafe selling refreshments and space to sit and enjoy the views. The decent takes approx. 25 - 30 mins.

The hike up is fairly easy, unless you're really unfit. The views from the top are just spectacular, but only if you have luck of having a clear day like I did. The next day it rained and I'm sure the experience must have been much different. The online tickets were always sold out for almost a month so I had to resort buying it through Vesuvio Express, of course, much more expensive than the official 11€, but for 30€ the bus up and down and the entrance ticket, it's not that bad I suppose.

Another truly amazing site to visit. The walk up can be a little strained but is so worth it. After entering and starting the climb, there are 3 little shops along the way. There prices are quite reasonable. When you reach the crater you have an ocean view on the opposite side. Absolutely incredible and I'm so glad I visited here.

We had a great time, definitely recommend visiting, but do be advised of these things - the road leading up the mountain is winding, and the drive is long, you pay 7€ for parking (card only) and still have to take a 3€ shuttle up to the trail’s starting point. Once you get to the starting point, you have to buy a ticket by scanning a QR code and waiting “in line” virtually, as they only open 10 tickets for sale every 10 minutes. Even though it is more expensive, I would recommend buying a ticket in advance, as their website is not user friendly at all, and the whole experience can be overwhelming. The trail is steep, and about a 30 minute walk. Definitely manageable for people of all fitness levels. I don’t regret visiting one bit, but I could have saved myself a lot of time had I known these things before.

Mount Vesuvius, located near the Bay of Naples, is one of the world’s most famous volcanoes, best known for its catastrophic eruption in AD 79 that buried the Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Stabiae under ash and pumice. 4,000 ish feet above sea level, it is the only active volcano on mainland Europe and has erupted many times since antiquity, with the most recent major eruption occurring in 1944. To visit, best get a train from Naples to either Herculaneum or Pompeii and pick up a bus from there. The Herculaneum bus was just outside the train station (scavi) and i didn't buy in advance, it was €15 return. The bus ride up is not for the faint hearted with drivers seemingly auditioning for F1 but its better than walking. The bus gives you 2hr, plenty of time to get up and back and enjoy a drink and some pics from the top of the stunning view of Naples and the bay and islands.

You get to the first level where you leave your car and get mini bus to the second level to gey tickets if you already didn't get online. Second level is full of buses and people trying to buy last minute tickets online and it's awful as you have to connect first to their WiFi and then scan code to get to website and try to get tickets as they refresh them every 5-10 minutes. If you're going 3 or more people order in advance online as we didn't manage to get 4 at one time and one person had to wait as slots are every 15 mins and tickets are available 15 minutes from buy only to enter. Staff are nice and helpful but could have a tickets sell instead of online buy.

We took the public bus from Pompeii scavi train station. It's 2.80 Euro one way and it was fairly convenient on a late September workday but I imagine it can be very crowded and stressful in July or August. We did not book tickets for the Vesuvius National Park in advance and had them go through the somewhat hassle of buying it online at the Park entrance. It worked out fine (3pm Monday entrance) but I would not recommend this during the busiest season, better to buy this in advance. The park itself is nice and the nature quite lush, the walk is easy and the views are also pretty good. In general, I like the Mount Etna on Sicily better (also reachable by public bus from Catania). The scene and views of Etna are more dramatic and it's an actual active volcano but Etna is also way more expensive. Overall, a nice half day excursion.

Wow... climbing an active volcano... what an experience... spectacular views from the top, even a snack shop! We booked parking and drove to halfway up. Then got the shuttle bus, 3e each return (be prepared, they only take cash). Parking is interesting, but worked out well. From the entrance, it took us about 45mins to walk the rest of the way, but that was with two Kids in tow... it is steep, but worth it. Again, there are drink stops along the way, but mobile signal is hit and miss, so best to have cash. The only downside was the return shuttle bus... there is no official stop, so its a free for all trying to get back on one. Something off the bucket list.

A nice experience, especially for nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and hikers. From the bus drop-off point to the summit, it's about a half-hour easy walk, the ascent is not too difficult. The view into the crater itself is not that impressive, but the bonus you get from the climb is the panoramic views of the Bay of Naples.

This was the second volcano I have climbed, the first being Etna. What can I say? First of all, I feel incredibly lucky that I managed to get the last three tickets for the day, sold right at the last minute! I was over the moon with happiness, as it has been a long-time dream of mine to come here, and I travelled all the way from Moldova to fulfill it. ​I was absolutely charmed by its beauty and imposing energy. This place charged me up for the next half a year! I am happy and deeply grateful for this wonderful day spent here. ​Nature lovers and explorers will certainly enjoy this experience. ​A few tips: I recommend buying tickets in advance—at least one or two days ahead. If you want to secure a specific day or time slot, book three to four days, or even a week, in advance. ​Today, October 19th, the temperature was quite warm. I was wearing jeans and a t-shirt and had a vest with me, which I took off during the climb. The trail from the entrance point to the crater is not long and is not complicated; even children can manage it. ​Vesuvius is a true gem of Italy and will forever remain in my heart.

You have to park and pay the shuttle fee to get to the trail head, otherwise you walk the road itself to get to the hike. Very lose dirt/rocks on the path. Path is steep but worth the views! Wait to shop until you get to the summit, great hand made souvenirs and shirts/hoodies. Snacks and drinks available at 2 locations, trail head and summit.

If driving up take care roads are poor and bus drivers are brutal . Honking horn beware and wait. Parking at top.Tourist outlets and refreshments available . One tourist was complaining as no Lava was visible. Really!!!! Must have thought it was Dante’s Peak . As the main attraction in Naples I would not miss it it’s unique and pretty awe inspiring.

Booked online the coach from Pompeii railway station which takes about 45 mins to wind it's way up to the parking area at ~1,000m from where the walking starts. Toilets are available here though they are of the 'builders' variety and mostly are full by the end of the day. The walk is up a fairly steep gravel and ash pathway but it's plenty wide enough to stop and rest when needed. Up on the crater rim are several shops/bars selling souvenirs, beers, wine and more. The views would probably have been fantastic had we not been in thick cloud for all of our walking.

It's Mt. Vesuvius. A historical mountain. For all the negative reviews: it's a mountain so, yes, it does have dirt, do your research ahead of time so you don't get stuck waiting at the top for tickets, and just enjoy yourself. The price goes to perserving the natural area.

Must see

(Translated by Google) In what was, and partly still is, the kingdom of "patches" where you can find everything from vintage clothing and more, there is an authentic pearl from ancient history... the basilica of Pugliano. A treasure chest in an area rich in art and culture. A visit not to be missed to better understand the history of the Golden Mile. (Original) In quello che fu, e in parte ancora lo è, il regno delle "pezze" dove trovi tutto dell'abbigliamento vintage e non solo, c'è un'autentica perla dalla storia antica... la basilica di Pugliano. Uno scrigno di tesori in una zona ricca d'arte e cultura. Una visita da non perdere per comprendere al meglio la storia del Miglio d'oro.

(Translated by Google) The facade is a mix of styles, from the bell tower in piperno and Pompeian red bricks, to the very simple almost anonymous side block, to the facade with the entrance to arches and columns with an unlikely yellow and white colour. However, the churchyard it overlooks is beautiful. (Original) La facciata è un mix di stili, dal campanile in piperno e mattoni rosso pompeiano, al blocco laterale molto semplice quasi anonimo, alla facciata con l'ingresso ad archi e colonne dalla colorazione improbabile gialla e bianca. Bello invece il sagrato su cui affaccia.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church. The oldest in the Vesuvian area. Later elevated to the rank of basilica. It is dedicated to the Virgin of Pugliano. The bell tower and the archconfraternity where the image of the Madonna is preserved are noteworthy. Inside are two ancient sarcophagi. Worth a visit. The large external square is very beautiful. (Original) Bellissima Chiesa. La più antica del circondario Vesuviano. Elevata poi a rango di Basilica. È intitolata alla Vergine di Pugliano. Notevoli il campanile, l'arciconfraternita dove è conservata l'immagine della Madonna. All'interno due antichi sarcofaghi. Da visitare. Molto bello l'ampio piazzale esterno.

Beautiful little park. Not an awful lot to do here but there are some nice buildings you sadly can’t enter. Definately ok if you want to relax or go to the beach (which is right behind a little passage at the back)

1969 de Villa Favorita The view from our 5th floor room was fantastic. And San Sabastian is an amazing and beautiful destination. But don’t stay here. Unfortunately, but for the view, the hotel does not have the depth of staff required to make this hotel excellent or even good. I will provide a few examples below. The rooms are typical for Europe and very small. They tried to upgrade the tech and add auto blinds next to the bed, but one of our room controls did not work so you had to get up to adjust the shades by the window anyway. So at that point, a typical curtain would be better. The faucets in the shower were an attempt at modern but were challenging and complicated to work. The toilet is Japanese tech and nice. It had a bidet. A couple of examples of the staffing issue. First, we had an early morning flight and went to the lobby at 6:45 am. We had made arrangements for an early driver and for the hotel to package us a breakfast and coffee. The breakfast idea was the hotels when I had them make arrangements for the driver. When we came down to the lobby exactly at 6:45 am, no one was there. The car came and I went out to get our luggage in and the Electonic door closed behind me. The problem is that the door locked behind me and I could not get back in. Terrible. My wife came and moved in front of the motion detector to get the door to open. I made sure she did not get locket out too, or she would have. (Double doors) The lobby person came with coffee and apologized for not being there and said she was making the coffee. She also said that the breakfast was not ready yet. She left. We waited ten minutes. We rang the bell. She never came back so we left for the airport. It was supposed to be a croissant and yogurt. It was not a cooked order or anything complicated. So that sucks. They should not have offered breakfast. Once they did, it should have been ready. They knew we had a flight and had booked the car for us. The second item has to do with integrity of the hotel. We had our laundry done by the hotel. We expected it to be expensive. We had them wash a handful of underwear and socks, a few workout clothes but no nice clothes. The room did not have a price list by the laundry. We told the person at the desk that there was no pricing list when my wife dropped off the laundry. You can and should expect it to be expensive in a hotel for laundry but this was outrageous. They must have charged for each sock. The bill was 132 euro (about 150 dollars) for one load. I could have bought new what we washed for less than that amount. I complained and the first person did nothing but say the price list is there and I carefully explained that it was not there. Later, the hotel adjusted the bill to $114 dollars when I complained to a different person, who was very nice but said she couldn’t adjust it more. I don’t usually write negative reviews, but feel we were cheated. I don’t like that feeling!!!! And it’s bad business. It was the hotel’s error, and I thought it would be 50 or 60 bucks, the cost is not a thing to me - and I feel blessed about that- but the cheating is a thing. It first it seemed by design, but I think it’s in line with the other service and staffing issues. Another example of a system and staffing failure: We used the hotel robes on the first day. They took those to wash and did but put them back. So we had to ask for them again. Overall, I cannot recommend the hotel. But it does have an amazing view if you can get the Electonic blinds to raise. So this Favorite hotel is not my favorite.

great

(Translated by Google) We stayed at this villa for the Vesuvio Foodfest. The spaces are very large and the avenues are clean. There are many trees so even on sunny days you can walk in the shade. From the gardens you can also access the sea, and at sunset it is very beautiful. There are no games for children and the buildings are not in good condition. It is worth considering whether it is still interesting when there are no events (Original) Siamo stati in questa villa per il Vesuvio Foodfest. Gli spazi sono molto ampi e i viali puliti. Ci sono parecchi alberi e quindi anche nelle giornate assolate si può passeggiare al fresco. Dai giardini si accede anche al mare, e al tramonto è molto bello. Non ci sono giochi per bambini e gli edifici non versano in buono stato. Da valutare se sia comunque interessante quando non ci sono eventi

(Translated by Google) The Favorita of Ercolano, more precisely the Royal Villa of the Favorita, is located on the Golden Mile. It is one of the most sumptuous Vesuvian villas of the 18th century. Ferdinando Fuga built the building starting in 1762 on a pre-existing casino belonging to the family of Duke Beretta of Simari. Shortly after, the villa and park were purchased by Stefano Reggio and Gravina, Prince of Jaci and Campofiorito (1700-1790). In 1768, the prince organized a lavish reception in honor of the newlyweds, Royal Princes Ferdinand and Maria Carolina of Austria. The reception was also attended by Grand Duke Leopold of Tuscany and his wife Maria Luisa of Bourbon, who would later become Emperors of Austria. Upon the death of the Prince of Aci in 1792, the villa became the sovereign's estate, according to the prince's will. Ferdinand IV of Bourbon moved the Naval Officers' Academy there. (Original) La Favorita di Ercolano, più esattamente Real Villa della Favorita, è situata sul Miglio d’Oro. È una delle più sontuose ville vesuviane del XVIII secolo.

Dopo poco la villa e il parco furono acquistati da Stefano Reggio e Gravina, principe di Jaci e di Campofiorito (1700-1790). Nel 1768 il principe organizzò un fastoso ricevimento in onore dei Principi reali Ferdinando e Maria Carolina d'Austria, novelli sposi e al quale parteciparono anche il Granduca Leopoldo di Toscana, con la consorte Maria Luisa di Borbone, che sarebbero divenuti Imperatori d'Austria. Alla morte del principe di Aci, nel 1792 la villa entrò nel patrimonio del sovrano, secondo le volontà testamentarie del principe. Ferdinando IV di Borbone vi trasferì l'Accademia degli Ufficiali di Marina

Beautiful villa 10 minutes down the road from Herculaneum! Excellent online guide available. Well worth a visit if you have some extra time! The ticket for the visit can be buy as a pack from Herculaneum or from the entrance of the vila

Villa Campolieto, located in Ercolano along the scenic Golden Mile, is a stunning example of 18th-century Italian baroque architecture. This elegant villa, designed by architect Luigi Vanvitelli, boasts grand halls, intricate frescoes, and beautifully landscaped gardens. Overlooking the Bay of Naples, the villa offers breathtaking views that complement its historical charm. Its meticulous restoration makes it a perfect venue for cultural events or a peaceful visit to admire the opulence of the Neapolitan aristocracy. Villa Campolieto is a hidden gem for history and art lovers.

Beautiful quiet villa 10 minutes down the road from Herculaneum! Excellent online guide detailing the architecture and history of the building and local area. Well worth a visit if you have some extra time! And as of June 2025 they have a temporary exhibition on daily life in Herculaneum which has some really cool artifacts like carbonized bread and other food staples, furniture, and cookware discovered from the Herculaneum site!

Great stop to spend an hour and learn about some unknown history. Nearby parking a huge bonus. We had it all to ourselves!

Fabulous villa. Setting is beautiful overlooking the bay and the free audio guide is very informative. Spent a good hour and a half here and was a reasonable price. Well worth the trip.

7€ now for a nice looking building from outside, and a small garden. Inside a lot of empty rooms, some other rooms used as offices ( I didn't even know if I was allowed in there) and no instructions and directions at all . Considering that the ruins of Herculaneum ar just minutes away, and they are amazing , this place for almost half the price is a total RIP OFF Update: Considering the reply from the villa, I want to make it clear , that once I paid the ticket, I wasn't offered an audioguide, and I wasn't told that it's the ONLY WAY I can get details about the place. A very important piece of information DON'T YOU THINK? Probably I should have had to pay extra in order to get the audioguide . Also I want to mention that on the ground floor there was a public event with audio systems, microphones,chairs, and a row of chairs that was blocking the access to the main stair case, since my adventure through offices trying to get to the upper floor. Overall a very bad experience, with NO CONSIDERATION for the tourists once you paid the ticket.

The entrance feels overpriced for what you can see here, no explanation about the remainings of Erculano. Audio guide was only about the villa and a little dramatic. I wouldn’t recommend the place, better spend the time and money elsewhere

(Translated by Google) The best sandwich truck that exists in the Vesuvian area and surrounding areas. You can already recognize Gigino the owner as he walks with the van towards the small square in Pugliano by his particular horn and loud music. The opening and closing times are a bit random but the wait is well repaid by the products. To eat you put something in advance and then at the end you get the bill. Excellent sandwiches, delicious potatoes and great friendliness from all the staff who cheer you up while you wait with songs and nice anecdotes of the Neapolitan tradition. Super recommended. (Original) Il miglior camioncino dei panini che esista nel vesuviano e dintorni. Gigino il proprietario lo riconosci già mentre cammina col furgone verso la piazzetta di pugliano dal suo particolare clacson e la musica ad alto volume. Gli orari di apertura e chiusura sono un po' a come capita ma l'attesa è ben ripagata dai prodotti. Per mangiare metti qualcosa in acconto e poi alla fine si fa il conto. Ottimi panini buonissime patate e grande simpatia di tutto lo staff che ti allieta durante l'attesa con canzoni e simpatici aneddoti della tradizione napoletana. Super consigliato.

(Translated by Google) Historic sandwich truck from Ercolano and personally I would even give it 10 stars!! I have always heard of "Gigino is always a friend" and I finally managed to taste his sandwich and I really have to say that it is something spectacular, to try and enjoy. An experience of flavors!! It is the classic van used for "take away" or on-site consumption and there are usually also small plastic tables on which to lean to eat the sandwich. The staff is very kind and very nice. Lastly, the prices are great! If you are in the area I absolutely recommend it! You have to try Gigino's sandwich at least once in your life 😋🍔 (Original) Camioncino dei panini storico di Ercolano e personalmente gli darei anche 10 stelle!! Ho sempre sentito parlare di "Gigino é sempre un amico" e finalmente sono riuscito ad assaggiare il suo panino e devo davvero dire che é qualcosa di spettacolare, da provare e gustare. Un esperienza di sapori!! È il classico camioncino adibito al "take away" oppure alla consumazione sul posto e solitamente ci sono anche dei tavolini in plastica dove appoggiarsi per mangiare il panino. Il personale è gentilissimo e simpaticissimo. Infine i prezzi sono ottimi! Se siete in zona ve lo consiglio assolutament! Bisogna assaggiare il panino di Gigino almeno una volta nella vita 😋🍔

(Translated by Google) Let's start by saying that Gigino is one of the pioneers of street food. In every sandwich of the "latest generation" paninari there is a bit of Gigino in every sandwich. His is an experience, from when you arrive to when you pay and leave with his sweets and liqueurs. His French fry is different, different and it's a whole different thing. The sandwich balanced in every ingredient. Gigino is a guarantee!!! Value for money...excellent. Gigi you are number one!! I suggest going very early, even before he arrives. You have to take a number for chips and a number for sandwiches. (Original) Partiamo col dire che Gigino é uno dei pionieri della street food. In ogni panino dei paninari di "ultima generazione" c' é un po di Gigino in ogni panino. La sua é un' esperienza, da quando arrivi a quando paghi e vai via con i suoi dolcetti e liquori. La sua patatina fritta é differente, diversa ed é tutta un altra cosa. Il panino equilibrato in ogni ingrediente. Gigino é una garanzia!!! Rapporto qualità prezzo....eccellente. Gigi sei il numero uno!! Suggerisco di andare molto presto, anche prima del suo arrivo. C' é da prendere un numero per le patatine ed un numero per i panini.

(Translated by Google) Super characteristic, to try at least once in your life. The sandwich is very good. I recommend trying the porchetta and chips which can be accompanied by anything you want. GIGGINO is a real character and an icon of all the young people who hang out at night. Everyone is very nice and helpful (Original) Super caratteristico, da provare almeno una volta nella vita. Il panino è buonissimo. Consiglio di provare la porchetta e le patatine che possono essere accompagnate da qualsiasi cosa si desideri. GIGGINO è una vedo personaggio ed un’icona di tutti i giovani che frequentano la notte. Tutti simpaticissimi e disponibili

(Translated by Google) Excellent sandwich, perhaps one of the best compared to many food trucks but I give one star, in fact I would give a minus 10 for the organisation, in the Middle Ages they were more organised. Go there and get the number Go to the cashier and ask for the deposit (mama me 😞) And if you don't have cash, no problem, instant bank transfer 😂😂😂he doesn't have a pos 😂😂 After 2/3 hours your turn comes You have to say how you want the sandwiches on one side Only carme Etc. for the side dishes you have to go to the other side and tell them 😂😂😂 in the end you eat you get the account closed and see if you have to receive the change and give more money well (ruined) In my opinion, doing like everyone else in the world makes things more serious and quicker You order sandwiches as you want them, pay and wait for your number bha Never again (Original) Ottimo panino forse uno dei più buoni rispetto a tanti camioncini ma do una stella anzi ne darei meno 10 per l'organizzazione nel medioevo erano più organizzati. Vai li prendi il numero Vai in cassa ti chiede l'acconto (mamma mi 😞) E se nn hai contanti nessun problema bonifico istantaneo 😂😂😂nn ha il pos 😂😂 Dopo 2/3 ore arriva il tuo turno Devi dire come vuoi i panini da una parte Solo carme Ecc per i contorni devi andare dall'altra parte a dirglielo 😂😂😂 alla fine mangi ti fai chiudere il conto e vedi se devi ricevere il resto a dare ancora soldi bhe (rovinati) Secondo me fare come tutto il mondo rende la cosa più seria e veloce Ordini panini come li vuoi paghi e aspetti il tuo numero bha Mai più

(Translated by Google) I go there as a boy, a large complete porchetta on the plate and an excellent sandwich and many delicacies and take your fork because Giggino is waiting for you (Original) ci vado da ragazzo una grande porchetta completa nel piatto e un ottimo panino e molte sfioziosità e prendi la forchetta che giggino ti aspetta

Average pizza and average welcome/service by the staff.

A terrific neighbourhood pizzeria. If you like good, honesty, tasty food at affordable prices this is the place for you. The bruschetta was delicious and the pizza was generous and quick. If you are expecting a gourmet experience or silver service, jog on. The owner is a fantastic and strong character. More power to his elbow!

Every single thing we ordered ( mixed entrees, capricciosa pizza with PROSCUITTO and crocca pizza with SALAMI) all had CANADIAN HAM no actual ingredients listed were provided Absolutely no sauce or spices. Our roommates at our AIR BNB said the exact same. Its sad to see owners not care about the quality of the food received or any negative feedback , taking a look at previous reviews the responses speak for themselves truly. we are Italian and actually chefs in north america in Italian restaurants my whole career. And this restaurant was truly TARATA-TERRIBLE. Would give 0 stars if possible..

Great pizza good price friendly staff . great local place and cheap

Best pizza in my life

Very good

Non male la pizz

Poor food, poor atmosphere, local wine quite nice. A number of items on the menu were not available. Chick pea soup for starter was the best part of the meal- tasted a bit like cassoulet. Some sort of almond tart for desert was dry and almost inedible. If possible, eat elsewhere.

We went for a late lunch, an hour before closing, they were so helpful and accommodating, the food was amazing and such reasonable prices! My husband and I both said we would definitely go back!

Food quality was questionable, quantity was ludicrous. Don't ask for the hamburger, unless you like a frozen piece of tasteless meat with fries full of oil. Dont even get me started on the calamares and shrimp as the only side dish was the hair of the cook and the shrimps scales.

An offense the size of the plates, my mates and I ordered ravioli and each plate had 5 ravioli, no more no less. They weren't even that good to pay 12 euro for them. They take advantage of tourists. Not recomendable to come and eat here. The waiter lied to us saying that the portions were big enough. Horrible place.

Amazing food and service, the best restaurant we found in the 10 days we were here. Nice local produce and food cooked perfectly with very reasonable prices. We ended up going 3 times but wished it was more. Will definitely go back if we ever come back to the area.

Great set of lads they make you feel at home prices for drinks are reasonable we had a right laugh with Luigi, Mario and pepe thank guys

Very nice lunch; Buffalo mozzarella with fresh tomatoes, fresh pasta with artichoke, and sausage finally lemon and ricotta ravioli. Service was prompt.

From the street not very noticeable, but when we tried the kitchen were pleasantly surprised. The seafood is fresh and delicious. Polite and pleasant waiter, ready to advise you. I really liked the spaghetti with seafood and tiramisu dessert I recommend it to all lovers of quality Italian home cooking And not really expensive

I have been in Italy for the past month and this has been the best meal by far. We started with zuppa of mussels with scampi and other fish, 2 fresh pasta dishes with sausage and zucchini, fried fish of the day that included calamari and shrimp and a salad. We had a bottle of white wine and water. The price very incredibly reasonable and the service was great, Leonardo was a sweetheart.

Doesn't look much from the outside but good place to stop for lunch before Vesuvius carpark, last sit down place. Inside there is a covered veranda and plenty of tables. A slice of pizza turned out to be huge. Family run I think, quick service and very good prices. Toilets very clean. Some great old photos on the wall in the main dining room from 1900s.

Just an amazing place with delicious food! Owners are incredibly nice and dolce, the seafood was so fresh! There were no people, however I would love to see this place full! Highly, highly recommended!

Super friendly and welcoming staff, great food and very reasonable prices. It’s quiet (I have no idea why), so it’s peaceful and easy to get a table.

I definitely would recommend this place, very authentic Italian taste, good value for money and it is a family run restaurant. If going or coming back from the Vesúvio, just pop in for a nice meal.

The staff is supremely nice, dishes are well made and taste good, served local wine stands to the spectacular view provided by this restaurant. Don't get fooled by the little outdated look of this place.
