Best Naples Restaurants

 

Nowadays, Neapolitan pizza became some sort of a legend. If you ask anyone where the best pizza is, you are most likely to hear "Naples" as an answer (although New Yorkers will probably argue with that). Of course, pizza is a "must-try" during your Naples vacation, but the vibrant city has so many more delicious things to offer. Pasta alla Genovese, for example, is just as Neapolitan as pizza, and there is no other place where you can try authentic Buffalo Mozzarella. Did you know that Naples is all about desserts? Pastry shops are open way into the night and citizens believe that there is no better way to start a day than in a small cafe with a cup of espresso and something sweet with ricotta filling. To help you explore the Neapolitan cuisine, we've put together this list of what we think are the top restaurants in Naples.
