"Delicious pizza and pasta - that’s why I come back to Italy. There was a lot of great pizza toppings and a perfect pizza dough. We also could enjoy amazing carbonarra and the best aperol. I love that place, I ate there twice and I reccomend it for tourists"

"Nicely located within the Quartier Spagnoli, Donna Elvira is your typical Neapolitan ristorante, with plenty of classics. It's not going to be your best meal while in Italy but you'll enjoy the Neapolitan spirit especially if you dine outside."

"This trattoria, located in the lively streets of Vico Giardinetto near the Spanish Quarters, serves pasta with truly authentic flavors. The portion sizes are a bit small. Great spot to experience local cuisine in a vibrant setting."

"Food was good, not amazing. Service was good, not amazing. Atmosphere, (are you seeing a pattern?) good, not amazing. Maybe I have been spoiled in the past by great pizza. It was good! It really was, but not amazing. Glad to have visited but probably wouldn't return. LONG wait for the bill"

"Stubbled upon this place while trying to shelter from the biblical rain! The staff were so nice and the food was truly authentic Neapolitan. The sourdough bread in the little brown bag was soooo delicious, the waiter even gave us some to take home (which we had for breakfast the next day). Try the potato and cheese pasta. We got free lemoncello too!"

"Lunch on the busy street is a bit hectic. Whether it is charming or annoying depends on the traveler, but what you can’t deny is that there are many choices. We were ushered to sit down at this street-seating restaurant since it was one of the few with free chairs. We ordered beers (generous) and pizzas as one does when beginning a trip in Naples. The pizzas were quite decent. As mentioned, the street seating can be annoying for some as street performers, mopeds, beggars, and mobs of tourists stroll by. All said, the prices were extremely reasonable. Impressive even."
