A Materdei landmark dating to the early 1900s, Starita is woven into Naples lore and its fried pizza is the stuff of legend. Beyond the famous montanara and pizza fritta, the wood-oven Margherita holds its own. A genuinely old-school room that earns its lines.

Editor's Tip

Ranked #42 in Italy at 50 Top Pizza Italia 2025 and an AVPN-certified veterace house. Founded over a century ago.
