Just round the corner of the magnificent Convento di Santa Chiara, in the heart of the old city of Naples, there's this little taverna where you can taste excellent traditional food. Not to miss the ziti alla genovese, a savoury pasta with a slow coocked sauce made of meet and onions (just one might not be enough) and the pasta with smoked provola cheese and potatos, a jump backward to the tastes of the past. Welcomig and smiling service, with a touch of cozy but not noisy sympathy are the perfect framework for this place that I strongly recommend to everyone's interested in leaving a real and not for tourists neapolitan experience. Just an advise: you'd better book in advance. Personal update: recently Santa Chiara has been under the spotlight for some troubles with some guests that found it normal to put online a video accusing the owner for being anti-jewish just because she clearly stated her disappointment toward what's now happening in Gaza. Well, I don't wanna go into politics, but simply give my personal support to the Taverna's team, and compliment for their extremely firm but polite reaction

A beautiful island of good food and familiarity.
In the most tourist center of Naples, after having emerged in the Nativity Scenes, among the Museums and Churches, in the shops and among the stalls, take your breath from Nives, a woman of great intelligence and beautiful culture who offers a trattoria in the truest sense of the term where Neapolitan cuisine is that of honest and intense palates.

I would have liked to have lunch here to show my solidarity with the owner involved in the controversy with Israeli customers but unfortunately I found it closed. Anyway, top marks for the estimate, hoping it can peacefully reopen as soon as possible.

Friendly and kind owners and good local dishes. Small place but a warm and familiar atmosphere. It was raining a lot and it was lunch time, they welcomed us cordially and made me and my 2 children sit at the table. We had a good time.

He came here specifically to demonstrate that minimal form of solidarity necessary in the face of events like the one that overwhelmed this small and authentic reality. Excellent food and hospitality. I hope to return soon!

Among the best typical restaurants in the historic center of Naples, quality ingredients and traditional recipes at honest prices!
The demonstration that it is still possible to make good catering with healthy values and noble ideas

Accueil un peu brusque. La moitié des plats disponibles sur la carte n’étaient plus disponibles. Le repas était bon mais sans plus. Je ne reviendrais pas.

Posticino carino, cibo di qualità e piatti ben preparati. Ho apprezzato particolarmente la pasta e patate, piatto della tradizione napoletana, che alternava la cremositalà del condimento al morso della pasta lasciata al dente.
