Trattoria da Mammarella — Restaurant in Naples

Right then let’s get into it. First impression out of the gate, cheap nasty cutlery, ominous start, followed swiftly by a carafe of red wine, refrigerated, oh Lordy! By now getting worried. Sent back that wine for a full bottle, can’t get worse? Hold tight. Our second courses came out first, meatballs ( 2 balls of awful dry crunchiness ) and eggplant Parmesan which was stone cold. Feeling like a coldist by now, I complained and got it back, half the size and nuked, so I left it. The only saving grace (and the reason it wasn’t 1 star) was our first courses which came second. Gnocci and spaghetti al forno, delicious! Hallelujah! Then just as they pulled it back, we were let down by them saying no card, cash only, the last guy we saw paying by card had been led away down a side street so we scraped together what we had which was €5 under but they took it. Bit dodgy tbh. I say avoid, there are plenty of better places to get good pasta from especially the trattorias in the...

Tldr: shady bill, unpleasant experience. Very hungry and passing by, we went for a quick meal. Staff was pestering us from the get go, rushing us to order. Waiter was literally coming back every 30 seconds, and then stood by checking their clock, as we were deciding on a food. Food came out decent, but one meal was missing. The latency was 40+ minutes after all other orders came out, so our friend couldn't eat with the group. At the end, we've decided to cancel it, since we were in a hurry, but they started nagging us to take it. It was unpleasant. They charged that (extremely late and canceled) meal, also added 6 euro for service (which was not mentioned before), the bill was very confusing (no meal names, only numbers), and waiter was passive aggressive when we tried to get some understanding about the...

We’ve chosen this restaurant repeatedly for our dinner in Naples. It is located in a small hidden square, a bit away from a busy street of Via Dei Tribunalli. Here you can spot more locals rather than tourists. The food is just amazing as it can get, can’t say anything less, only perfetto!, moreover the prices will positively surprise you as well. Personally, I’ve tasted the best gnocchi in my life here, and my second favorite was tagliatelle with mushrooms. The stuff is very polite and attentive. It can get a bit busy, like in any other restaurant during visiting hours, but if you are in no rush and want to enjoy a nice evening in the authentic Italian restaurant, to feel a real vibe of Napoli hospitality, this shouldn’t be a problem for you. In simple words - can only...
