Ampressa Ampress' — Restaurant in Naples

We came across this restaurant randomly when I was travelling in Napoli with my family. Situated in a neighbourhood,it is not far from Duomo Metro station.

There are different dishes ready and placed in the food counter. they taste so fresh and rich in flavour.

The staff was so helpful, even though their English level is very limited. The best way to order is to look at the food from the counter and let them know which one you’re after.

We ordered squid, octopus, vegetable and sausage, eggplant and a carbonara. None of them disappointed us. The quids and octopus are so tender and flavour with fresh tomato sauce. The eggplant was baked to a very soft texture and the cheese on top that goes really well with it. The vegetable and sausage was so good as well.

After we finished all the meat and seafood in the plates, we used the bread provided and scraped the sauces. 👍

And it is so affordable, with the food in my picture plus a can of Coke, it was €39.5 for a family of three.

I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more. I would definitely go back to this restaurant if I visit...

When we pointed out that we found a rock half an inch long in the pasta (a centimeter and a half) at the waitress, she told us that is fairly normal and also common to found such things , because the clams, which the pasta is full of, grow and live in the sand, and in the sand there are rocks. Unfortunately for her I'm a professional chef so I know for sure, because I do it myself, that the clams must be washed and "spurgati" ( put in the water with salt for a couple hours in order to lose all the sand and the foreign matters the mollusc may contain). Luckily I found it while eating and I didn't chew it because it could create a lot of problems once In the mouth. So yeah, keep an eye while eating because dentists are quite...

Just lovely. Found ourselves a little lost, being tourists and having been misled by Google Maps, we stumbled into this little gem quite overheated, tired, and hungry. The server recommended the spaghetti. The spaghetti and the secondi were the best we had while in Naples, and the hospitality was outstanding. Also left my bookbag—they very kindly kept it until my partner was able to run back for it. Absolutely outstanding. We will be back if in...
