Pizzeria 1000 Gourmet In Napoli

22/11/2025: If you want to eat great and delicious pizza in Naples, I highly recommend it

22/11/2025: 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.
