Da Pellone In Napoli

In the heart of Naples, Pizzeria Pellone smells of pizza in every corner. Founded in 1960, this classic establishment has nourished generations with the same simple yet powerful recipe, without artifice or pretension, and therein lies its charm. Here, the glitz of trendy spots isn't the goal: the true spirit of the "wagon wheel" pizza is preserved, made with premium ingredients that reflect the bounty of the Vesuvius hills. Vibrant tomatoes, perfectly melted mozzarella, and fresh basil take center stage. As is typical in Naples, the restaurant operates on a first-come, first-served basis and is always packed. With skillful touches of fire, the pizzaiolos shape high-hydration doughs using the classic Neapolitan technique, the slap, stretching the dough to its limits. The result: pizzas overflowing the plate. We tried a prosciutto e funghi and a diavola. This last one could have come straight from Dante's seventh circle of Hell: intensely spicy, fiery, and delicious. The atmosphere is quintessentially Neapolitan: bustling, warm, with fast and attentive waiters who understand that pizza here isn't just food, but culture. Its location, just steps from Central Station, makes it an ideal stop before or after exploring the city or returning from an excursion. There are queues, yes, but also a consensus: the wait is always worth it. Pellone is pure Neapolitan essence: pizza made with skill, tradition, and no frills. If you're looking for the authentic Neapolitan experience in its most genuine form, this is the place for you.

If you want to eat great and delicious pizza in Naples, I highly recommend it

Well done, congratulations, undoubtedly among the best pizzerias in Naples! The place was renovated in September. It's beautiful and elegant, from the dining room to the bathrooms, everything is perfect and in order, and the atmosphere is excellent. Authentic, expert, and professional service, provided by people who know their trade and are carrying on the legacy of a renowned pizzeria. The amazing pizzas are a worldwide success. I had the Totonno with ragù, provola, and sausage. Wow, what a ragù... what a ragù, worthy of applause, original, and perfect. All the other pizzas seemed excellent to me, and the portions were always overflowing. Everything was right, everything was exceptional. Well done! Be a catalyst for development and progress for Piazza Nazionale, which should see you as the icon of excellence and hospitality. In the future, consider including the option of booking with a deposit; it seems like a reasonable compromise as a company policy. Best regards, and good luck!

Excellent fried pizza, and I'm not the only one who says so. This is why Pellone is a Naples institution. Otherwise, we're poor or just adequate. Definitely worth a visit.

We were really impressed and surprised by the size of pizzas. They were huge and so delicious 🤤

Pellone Pizzeria serves delicious pizza. I recommend everyone stop by.

A must-see for any tourist in Naples! 👍

Pizza dough impossible to digest and prices much higher than average

Maravilloso lugar local. Vale la pena esperar 20 minutos. La cena para 3 con cerveza y demasiada comida fue de $ 60 euros (nos llevamos a casa las sobras). Recomiendo encarecidamente la pizza Margherita y pizzas totonno. También probé pizza Porcini que era bueno, pero no genial. Todos eran Italianos. Sorprendentemente el personal era muy agradable y tolerante con nosotros, aunque apenas podemos dar las gracias en Italiano.

Absolutamente fantástico lugar! La comida era deliciosa! La pizza era deliciosa! Tan fresca. . . . salsa tan sabrosa, el sabor de la mozzarella fresca era el mejor!
