The 15 best restaurants in Naples for 2025

There’s a reason we once named Naples as the world’s best city for food. Worldwide recognition has been a long time coming for the city, as its rich gastronomic heritage has been thriving for centuries. This is the birthplace of pizza, after all! But it’s not just pizza here to shout about. Naples’s chefs are masters at transforming simple, humble ingredients into world-class pasta dishes, deep-fried goodies, and seafood specialties. With a deep-rooted tradition of using local ingredients – Sorrento lemons, Vesuvian tomatoes, Gragnano’s renowned pasta flour and locally caught Clams – Neapolitan cuisine is a celebration of tradition, quality, seasonality, and bold flavors.  RECOMMENDED:🍕 The best pizzerias in Naples📍 The best things to do in Naples🏠 The best Airbnbs in Naples🏨 The best hotels in Naples This guide was recently updated by Gabriela Prioetti, a writer based in Naples. At Time Out, all of our travel guides are written by local writers who know their cities inside out.
