09/05/2026: An unforgettable lunch at the President Restaurant. The food, needless to say, was fantastic: every course had something special while remaining true to tradition, incredible flavors, and truly impeccable service. The restaurant itself is also beautiful.
We arrived late due to a taxi strike, but they waited for us without a problem and, in the end, even took care of finding us a ride home. Fantastic people, truly.
But beyond the excellent quality, what struck us most was how they managed to make both my grandmother and I feel at home, almost like family—and that wasn't at all a given, considering this was an experience so far removed from our everyday lives. Our deepest congratulations and warmest regards, hoping to see you again soon.
30/04/2026: As often happens, the great chefs, remarkable restaurants, and memorable experiences are hidden far from big cities, capitals, and regional centers. In places where dedication, passion, and craft of fine cuisine are not affected by a dense population, heavy tourist traffic, and an infinite number of compromises. So, no surprise that the finest take on Neapolitan cuisine is waiting for you in Pompei. The "President" restaurant (or should I say its charming couple of owners) offers you exquisite service, respectable hospitality, and a thoughtful tasting menu. It combines the chef's mastery, curiosity, and erudition into a highly cohesive adventure through classic and modern, domestic and foreign, traditional and progressive. The noteworthy work with aromas and aftertastes is continued by a versatile and nuanced (both non-alcoholic and vine) pairing. This detour, made specifically for that place, is not only extremely justified by delicious food and care of hosts, but easily could overshadow the epic historical landmark placed within walking distance from this restaurant.
