Osteria Nonna Cherubina In Pompei

07/05/2026: My wife and I made a reservation just after opening. The tables downstairs were already filled, as a light rain was falling. We were led upstairs through a half empty room of tables for two or four people, then into another room that was obviously for large parties. We were sat at the end of a table set for ten. The waiter felt the need to sing loudly every time he entered the room. We came for the history and the pizza, not dinner theater. We asked for the house wine, he said they don't do house wine. I asked for a wine list and ordered a very nice white and we ordered two pizzas. In the 50 minutes we waited for our food we noticed that almost everyone seated around us was a foreign tourist, like us. When the pizzas arrived, the margarita pizza was okay, but the second pie had the ham piled in the just in the middle, resulting in the center crust being under baked. We went down stairs to pay the bill, and my wife asked where the bathroom was. The staff laughed and said upstairs. I'm glad I paid more for the wine than the pizzas, as it was the best part of the meal.
