Tutino dal 1935 — Restaurant in Naples

Tutino dal 1935, a true gem in the heart of Naples Yesterday, I went out for pizza with a friend of mine. Since he’s an expert, he suggested we go to Tutino, near the station. Walking through the alleys of traditional Naples has an inexplicable charm — you really have to experience it to understand. There are areas and small businesses that aren’t visible to the unobservant eye; you need to explore with an open mind and, if possible, with a local who can show you the authentic side of the city. And so we arrived at Tutino, a pizzeria that’s been open since 1935. Yes, you read that right — since 1935. In Naples, it’s not uncommon for pizzerias to have been around for over a hundred years, but how many can truly offer a pizza worth licking your fingers for? Well, Tutino is one of them. At the entrance, there are three beautiful ovens — two of them already lit, and this was just a Friday lunchtime (you might not know that , at least in the past, pizza for lunch in Naples was not so common, hence usually restaurants or pizzerias close around 3.30pm and reopened by 7.30). Tutino stays open all day, from lunch through dinner, which means they churn out a lot of pizzas. There are no tables on the ground floor, so we went upstairs. Only a few customers were there at the time — the atmosphere was informal, simple, and clean. We ordered our pizzas, and within five minutes they arrived. They looked fantastic. The margherita had a couple of small flaws visually, but nothing that seemed to affect the quality of the product. With the first bite, I already knew my marinara was a winner. What an explosion of flavors — the taste of the tomato was so intense and vibrant, the oil wasn’t overdone, and the whole thing melted in my mouth. A knife was completely unnecessary. It was such a pleasure to eat, and for once, I took my sweet time — bite after bite — almost sad to see it come to an end. At the counter, the bill came to €20 for two pizzas and a bottle of water — fair and honest. After a quick chat and a photo with the staff, it was time to think about the sweet side of the day. Thank you, Tutino— now I understand why this pizzeria has been going strong since 1935!

Food was really filling and good. We had two pizzas, two fried snacks and two drinks. I've had everything I ordered before. It wasn't the best I've ever had but really good ill admit :) service was slow to start. As someone who would have been fired myself for not greeting and sitting a table, I'll never understand the laziness of not being nice enough to show a table to their seat or check back on them after food has arrived. Maybe I'm just jealous as when I work I never get to stand around and talk :( I do believe we were charged a little more, my partner said the the receipt looked OK but prices didn't add up as the qr code app is still on my phone and it doesn't equal what it was. Assumed it was a service charged but it's a shame as I would have left a bigger tip as on holiday. Shame when...

A little further outside the train station. It's in a local area so you may get culture shocked, but if you wanna eat where the locals eat this is the spot to go! There is a line for take away and locals are in there. Don't be afraid because if you ask them to sit down they will take you upstairs. We had tons of bags and they welcomed us with open arms. They even found a table for us to leave our bags next to where we sit...... Also the prices are soo cheap... We orders 5 whole pizza and it was under 40 euro..... Amazing

Please give this spot a chance. The area is safe, but shows the true local area. Our recommendation is the pizza frita. (fried calzone) forgot to take a picture because it...
