Da Oliva — Restaurant in Naples

The pasta and the pizza were generally good. The service was generally OK-although quite slow. The prices were OK. However, we were very disappointed with one of our orders. We ordered pasta ragu and we were given pasta with just tomato and basil. I wasn’t sure whether this was a mistake and I asked whether what they brought as was ragu and the gentleman said it was. I then asked where is the mince/meat and he said that there is no meat in ragu, it’s just tomato and basil, which is clearly not the case. I asked what’s the name of the past with meat and he said it’s ‘spaghetti bolognese’. I don’t even know if that exists in Italy, but if it does, that’s fine. The problem is that we ordered ragu and we were given pasta with tomato only and we were told that this is ragu! So we felt like he hasn’t been serious and he clearly lied to us. I’ve never heard of ragu pasta with no meat. The receipt we were given stated the name of our pasta as ‘ traditional Neapolitan’ or something like that in Italian- and not ragu. So it was clear we were given something else and we were made to believe that we were given the correct thing,...

The pizza was very good but a wine was the worst I've ever had in my life. It comes out of a tap so it's pressurized and it has kind of a bubbly taste that never goes away. Do not order it. This is why we saw everybody else drinking beer. We did ask the waitress if we could order a different drink and wanted to see the menu to pick something else to drink from. She never came back to our table after that to even bring us a drink menu. We did our best to try to get her attention or a different person with no luck. We would have loved to have tried a different wine or beer at that point, but we had finished our pizza and it...

Mancavo da tempo , sono tornato per una cena in famiglia per un compleanno. abbiamo avuto un'ottima accoglienza peccato per la cena veramente terribile,iniziamo con una pizza mignon olio e pomodoro cruda che doveva mangiare mia figlia, per evitare discussioni non dico niente ma gratto con il coltello per far notare a tutti che c'era ancora l'impasto crudo , purtroppo la cosa non viene notata. Poi passiamo al primo di mia suocera dei paccheri cozze e pecorino ,crudi nel senso che i paccheri avevano la forma che avevano nella confezione, li rimandiamo indietro dicendo che erano crudi ,dopo un po ritornano ovviamente scaldati in acqua di cottura e quindi non avevano più sapore, i paccheri restano nel piatto. Poi arrivano le pizze di tutti noi , in buona parte avevano il cornicione crudo, infine due gnocchi alla sorrentina che erano il meno peggio ma comunque brutti con sugo nero ma non perché era un ragù tirato , ma molto probabilmente perché era stato cotto varie volte. In ogni caso chiediamo il conto paghiamo ringraziamo e ce ne andiamo. Ringrazio ancora i camerieri che comunque sono stati...
