Our verdict

In una traversa a dieci minuti dalla Stazione Centrale, Carmnella è uno dei simboli della tradizione partenopea autentica. Sala raccolta, forno a vista, arredi semplici con richiami al passato. Interessante il menu in formato book fotografico che guida la scelta. Poche tipologie di fritti, molto ben eseguiti. La pizza è una classica ruota di carro, non eccessiva nelle dimensioni, con impasto scioglievole, ben idratato e ottima cottura. L’Elena Ferrante è intensa e ben bilanciata, con polpettine di qualità; la Munaciello è una pizza fritta ripiena, croccante, friabile, gustosa dal sapore intenso. Servizio cordiale, carta beverage essenziale. E’ l’indirizzo per chi cerca la Napoli più genuina. In a side street ten minutes from Central Station, Carmnella is one of the symbols of authentic Neapolitan tradition. Cozy dining room, open oven, simple furnishings with nods to the past. Interesting menu in a photographic book format that guides the choice. Few types of fried foods, well executed. The pizza is a classic wheel, not excessive in size, with a soft, well-hydrated dough and excellent cooking. The Elena Ferrante is intense and well-balanced, with quality meatballs; the Munaciello is a stuffed fried pizza, crispy, crumbly, tasty with an intense flavor. Friendly service, essential beverage menu. It is the address for those looking for particularly genuine Naples.
