Fodor's Review:

The location is on a rather dark side street in the tattier section of the Spaccanapoli, but this place is well worth seeking out for its combination of old-style Neapolitan hospitality, high-quality food and wine, and excellent prices. It's a family affair, with Gianni out front and his mother, Nunzia, and wife, Maria, busy in the kitchen—much like in a typical Neapolitan household. The decorations are an accumulation of kitsch, and everyone who comes here seems to know everyone else. The pasta e ceci (with chickpeas) shouldn't be missed, and neither should the baccalà fritto (fried salt cod). The wine list includes selections from all over Italy.
