It's a pity to have to give only a four star review to this restaurant. Let me preface this by saying that the food was excellent, truly perfect. But unfortunately this traditional restaurant has tended to the tourist trap as far as service and management practices. They will try everything to take advantage of you (is that for the customers to feel the true Napolitan hospitality?). They will try to sell you tap water in a bottle as mineral water, so ask for sparkling. The Aperol Spritz doesn't have prosecco. Gin and tonic is better described as... tonic. Service is lacking. Still, it's a nice terrace restaurant with awesome fresh seafood, so if you have the stomach to fend off the other problems, I recommend it.

I had my first dinner in Napoli here. I didn't have a reservation and yet I got a table immediately. I was accommodated by an English-speaking server. I ordered calamari, spaghetti cozze, taralli e mandorle (spaghetti with mussles, taralli, and almonds), and vesuvietto (puff pastry shaped like the Mt. Vesuvius with ice cream and chocolate inside). The calamari was good and fresh, but I didn't like the pasta that much because it was too salty for me. The dessert was good, although it's surprisingly hard to eat because the pastry was brittle (but it's not too bad for me). I liked the ambiance, though some people were singing in front of each tables and asking for money afterwards. Interesting experience!

Zi Teresa is a historic restaurant located right by the yacht harbor in Naples, known for its traditional Neapolitan cuisine and picturesque waterfront views. The setting is elegant, and the location promises a classic dining experience — but sadly, our evening fell short of expectations, especially considering the final bill of €175. We ordered several dishes: the Insalata Caprese was fresh and flavorful — a solid start. The Mazzancolle Griglia (grilled shrimp) came with four large shrimp, but they were overcooked and had a strange, medicinal taste, almost like penicillin. The Cotoletta (breaded cutlet) with fries was tasty but small, more suited for a light lunch. The Filetto di Pepe Verde was very disappointing — the meat tasted boiled and had a noticeable bitterness that made it hard to eat. We were also looking forward to trying their famous “Vesuvio” dessert, but were told it was unavailable — despite being among the first customers of the evening, which was truly disappointing. We ended the meal with Tagliata di Frutta, which was fresh, but felt like a poor substitute for what we had hoped to enjoy. To make matters worse, the end of the meal felt unprofessional and uncomfortable. The waiter told us that tips were not included in the bill and handed us an envelope. He then took the check away and only returned it after coming back to collect the envelope. When we finally saw the receipt, it became clear that a service charge had already been included. As we stood up to leave, he opened the envelope in front of us to check whether a tip had been left — a gesture that felt both disrespectful and inappropriate. Despite its lovely setting and long-standing name, Zi Teresa did not live up to its reputation, and we would not return.

All right, where do I start? The locality itself is directly at the sea. There are a lot of boats next door and they also work there. It is very noisy and therefore there is little atmosphere. The problem is that the food we ordered wasn't very tasty either. Let us now come to the most important part, the food. The bread, which one gets by default in Napoli, was quite all right. But we already had much better bread in Napoli. My Gnocchi with Salmone tasted like bacon. There was hardly any Salmone on my plate and in other restaurants you can get a lot more for your money. Furthermore they were very expensive compared to Napoli. The noodles with tomato sauce and shrimps were all right. They tasted fine, but were not breathtaking. The water we got to drink was 4X times more expensive than in other places!!!!!! The waiters speak English quite well, but that doesn't justify the price of food at all. The toilets were also not the most beautiful and cleanest for the expensive food. During our visit there was not much going on in the restaurant and so we felt strongly watched by the staff.

The place is well-located, just in front of Castel dell'Ovo, so it is good to have a dinner with those beautiful views. We don't have reservation and even so we had a good spot. The staff was very helpful and the service was too fast that astonished us a lot! The thing is, it is not possible to bake a pizza in just 10 minutes or fry calamari in just 5 minutes. When you do that, it means the pizza dough is not fresh and once baked, it results in a rubbery pizza. In addition to the pizza and the fried calamari we ordered a tasteless caprese salad. As a result, we expected much more from this place, having in mind the place where it is, the staff, and the atmosphere (there was live music!).

Non sono solito scrivere recensioni negative, ma questa volta non posso proprio esimermi. Siamo stati presso questo ristorante attratti dal buon nome ed enstusiasti al pensiero di poter gustare del buon cibo nella splendida Napoli in un ristorante storico. Certamente un tempo sarà stato un ristorante prestigioso, ma oggi hanno perduto la qualità dei bei vecchi tempi andati visto come abbiamo mangiato. Abbiamo ordinato delle ostriche: mio figlio ha vomitato dopo 10 minuti la sola ostrica mangiata. Abbiamo ordinato 4 spaghetti con vongole veraci: piatti totalmente insapori, prodotti o surgelati o di scarsissima qualità (non saprei quale delle due, ma comunque vongole "veraci" prive di sapore e decisamente gommose). Risultato 4 spaghetti al sapore di olio, senza alcuna qualità, dove le poche volgole presenti erano solo fisicamente presenti nel piatto come decorazione, senza alcun contributo utile al piatto. Non abbiamo proseguito nemmeno con il caffè, essendo già fisicamente spossati dalla pessima esperienza culinaria. Abbiamo manifestato il nostro dissenso alla cassa, ad onor del vero solo dopo specifica domanda della signora che aveva accolto la nostra comanda, spiegando l'accaduto con dovizia di particolari. Non ci aspettavamo sconti, non sarebbero serviti a nulla rispetto alla nostra pessima esperienza, ma certamente almeno una parola di costernazione ed empatia potevano dirla. Invece hanno solo ascoltato le nostre parole con sguardo vitreo e con un silenzio assordante (evidentemente li stavamo annoiando con le nostre lamentele) per poi battere lo scontrino da 156,00 euro, senza scusarsi, senza approfondire quanto accaduto, senza nemmeno una minima preoccupazione nonostante un ragazzo di 16 anni, che abitualmente digerisce anche i sassi come tutti gli adolescenti, avesse vomitato le loro ostriche. I restanti due adulti, che avevano mangiato le ostriche, hanno avuto problemi intestinali. Allego lo scontrino così da dare certezza della nostra esperienza. Per noi è stata una pessima esperienza che non ripeteremo.
