"the best culinary experience of the last months in the heart of the historic center of napoli, finally something new and surprising completely different from the average of restaurants in the area. The room is also sought after in detail, the exposed beams and the tuff wall give that traditional touch that melted to the modernity of the furnishings create a perfect mix. but what really amazes from essence is the professionalism with which you are welcomed and pampered throughout the meal. natalia, the manager of the room and sommelier is a perfect hostess, prepared and above all very friendly. the dishes we tasted were a real discovery, even in this case the mix between tradition and innovation is the winning card, the frogs, among my favorite appetizers, even if the roe and fake carbonara are amazing. the foreign experiences of chef dario reflect on the whole menu and after being in catalunya several times I can assure you that his torrija is among the best ever tried! I will straconsiglierò this place and I am really amazed, after my recent experience, to read reviews so discordant and little relevant, will be the experience of an unfortunate adventor or not the mere dispettuccio of some sad and unfair competitor/person x???? I say try to believe!"

There is nothing to complain, the service is flawless, the food is great, the wine is great also and the price is fair. However, Natalia should be a bit more flexible in pricing the wine I wanted to take home with me...

pleasant surprise in this cozy restaurant in the historic center of Naples. furnished with goth and sobriety. the very kind and affable natalia has illustrated, with a lot of grace, the various specialties, that are turned out for all us (eight) edible, despite not common combinations, pleasant comumque. also the sweets of excellent level. What do you want more from life? Many say that a lucan we had a great jefferson! thanks again to Mr.:NATALIA.

the place is very nice, with an intimate atmosphere and an elegant environment. ideal for a romantic dinner, it is never too ingested. the dishes were an excellent discovery (we opted for the 7-storey degotation.) perfect portions, flavors as bold as well as well as well. natalia was impeccable in the service, both professional and spicy and pleasant. seeing a group of young boys so young to carry out this activity, I can only wish him a future full of satisfaction! Good, good, good.

Very thoughtful and professional service compensated for the imaginative but non impressing courses. There was missing a balance of tastes, some dishes were too mild while one was too salty and could not be finished by us (service in this case was very good, as was throughout the dinner special thanks to our waitress). The wine recommendations were delightfully accurate, enjoyed that. The restaurant was beautiful but sadly the room temperature was too high, taking just a bit away from the ambience. Hopefully will return to Michelin guide recommendation level, I would currently not recommend this restaurant.

one of the few restaurants in the center of napoli, in the sense that differs from the very good trattorias for environment, service, equipment and menu. dishes that often. they are inspired by the territory, but always with a strong fusion reinterpretation that includes courageous combinations with flavors from all over the world. like all the innovative things, it leaves room for different subjective opinions on the details, but the quality of raw materials, the professionalism in the preparations, the good taste of creativity and the sincere passion for experimentation are evident and appreciable. the price is obviously higher than the tractors mentioned above, but adapted to the experien...

I had such a wonderful time in this cosy small restaurant. Sergio and Natalia made the experience special before even the food arrived. Wine choices recommended by both, fun and a perfect match for the food. Then there was the food. I was glad I didn 't eat anything since 0800, as I could have 3 plates no dessert and enjoy it. Lovely amuse bouche, was followed by my choice of the most beautful caposanta dish scallops with tomato 4 ways with fennel tomato consommé . Scampi ravioli a welcome Asian gyoza type departure. The crown was taken by the most fantastic pigeon dish I have had in a very long time. Simply stunning, perfectly cooked breasts of pigeon accompanied by ice cream ! , popcorn, r...

We enjoyed a delicious meal with our family. Due to several allergies in our family we could not order the tasting menu which most guest were ding but if you can it looked like a great value and nice options. As for our family, although it is a small menu we had plenty to choose from. I let them know about the allergies ahead of time which the staff handled well down to small details like no bread plate for me and having gluten free bread available. My husband and I who don’t usually like mackerel thoroughly enjoyed the dish. It was smoked and served with a delicious yuzu dashi. Our sons’ ate the beef tartare and baby’s squid which they both enjoyed as well. For our second course we enjoyed...
