Antica Trattoria del Nilo
Home-cooked Naples in the alleys of Spaccanapoli
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Tucked among the Spaccanapoli alleys near the Statue of the Nile, this small trattoria run by Gaetano Bottiglieri and Anna De Gaetano cooks family recipes the slow way, provola, stuffed pasta, the genovese, finishing on a homemade pastiera. No spectacle, no English-menu hustle, just the kind of Neapolitan home cooking that is getting harder to find in the centro storico.
Editor's Tip
A genuine neighbourhood table, not a tourist canteen despite the location. Small room; lunch is calmer.
