Each district of Naples has its own history and, with it, the gastronomic culture that, in this city, is reflected in the skilful art of pizza-making. The pizzerias, located in every corner of the city and in the various districts, give you the opportunity to take a short stroll and enjoy one of the most loved dishes in the world.
It's safe to say that Naples is the capital of pizza, the place where it was born and where it is still enjoyed today, thanks to the skill of the pizza makers and the local produce. Pizza-making is an art, and if you're on holiday in Naples, you'll be hard pressed to find a pizzeria that doesn't meet all these standards.
Pizzeria Di Matteo
We're in the heart of the historic centre of Naples, on Via dei Tribunali, and the Di Matteo pizzeria is almost an institution. The products are regional and the dough is left to rise for long hours, fundamental elements for a special and good pizza. We also recommend you try the frittatina di pasta.

La Masardona
Eating a fried pizza here is like biting into a piece of Naples' history. For some, it's the best fried pizza in town, located near the central station. Today, a second pizzeria has opened near the Lungomare. What could be better than eating something good with a view of the sea?
