  • Da Dora
    Via F. Palasciano 28-29, 80122 Naples  Tel: +39 081680519

    Yikes. Sometimes Dora or some waiter bursts into song. They’re celebrating the prices. This is where businessmen convince themselves they’ve discovered something and where Neapolitans slink in, ready to pay for it.

  • Da Ettore
    Via Santa Lucia 56, 80100 Naples  Tel: 0817640498

    Seafood indeed. Made by sharks to fatten the fish. And pizza, too. The ultimate joint. If you don’t look buff in a polo shirt, substitute French cuffs.

  • Rosiello
    Via Santo Strato, 10 - Posillipo, Naples  Tel: 39 0817691288

    The most expensive view in Naples, with food to compare. More than cash, you'll need credit.

  • Taverna dell'Arte
    Rampe S. Giovanni Maggiore, 1a, 80134 Naples  Tel: 081/5527558

    But from another century. You shouldn’t ask for an extra serving of granita di basilico, which they use to cleanse your palette, but you will

    The most expensive, but for a reason.
