2/10We arrived to find a packed restaurant and to be told they did not have a reservation. Staff were standoffish and said to come back in 20 mins. Restaurant still full on return. I am sure the food is lovely, but there is no point in making a reservation

10/10A small, entertaining and very authentic Italian restaurant. The chef explains the menu with great passion and interacts with the customers throughout the meal. The food is delicious. A very unassuming but genuine place to eat, the chef loves cooking for you. Would totally recommend.

10/10From the moment I walk into this cozy , charming restaurant with a friendly server and a lovely decor, I knew I made a good choice. The fragrance from the kitchen gave me hope that my dishes will be tasty…and they were!! Being familiar with the Italian cuisine for over 45 years have enjoyed the pasta dish with porcini mushroom, lovely wine “de casa” and a super-fresh salad immensely. Some say, we have 2 stomachs - one got the meal, the other for the desert …😉, so I topped my fabulous dinner experience with a tiramisu which was out of this world. I can’t wait to come back - GRAZIE 🌹

10/10Lucius is a skilled chef who presented us with exceptional food tonight! This is a small restaurant, so you will receive personal attention from the chef as he consults with you on the order, describing the special dishes and helping select the perfect wine. Portions were very large so we did not get to try the desserts, but they looked delicious. We would encourage you avoid the tourist restaurants at the main gate and stroll into the town to enjoy this wonderful gastronomic experience!

10/10Luigi the owner was superb! He made us feel very welcome and gave us service and attention that went over and above. He gave us great insight to the local wines and did everything to ensure that we had a great meal. The food was superb, the service was superb, the wine was superb and the ambience was superb.

10/10We loved this restaurant because it was not touristy but rather truly Italian. The owner came and spoke with us. He told us the history of the restaurant. He also gave us some truffles to try on our cheese! Our waiter was very friendly. He was just learning English. The restaurant is right across from some of the Pompeii ruins.

9.5/10Small intimate setting. Luigi is an excellent chef. The seafood ravioli was amazing-great flavors and perfect pasta. Even the grilled zucchini was done perfectly. Inexpensive for the quality of the food. We enjoyed chatting with Luigi who came out of the kitchen to mingle with guests. Would definitely go back.

10/10We tried getting in one night but they were full so we came back the next night and we were so glad we did! Lucius is charming, funny and prepares amazing food! He does it all and with such pride. The food is simply fantastic and the overall experience of his restaurant is unique and heartwarming. Quintessential Italian and a very, very good value!

10/10Stuzzico is the best restaurant in Pompeii. It is run by two brothers, who offer a small menu of excellent dishes. They set store by local ingredients. The restaurant is very small, and it is necessary to make a reservation. The service is friendly, the food excellent, there is no annoying noise, different from some other restaurants in Pompeii, and once we had dinner there we immediately made a reservation for the following evening. Enjoy!
