Remember the following things before you go: 1 - they only do two types of pizza. Everybody knows this, so don't complain about it in your review. 2 - they serve Neapolitan pizza. It will be a bit burnt and not at all crispy. If you want thin and crispy pizza go to Rome. 3 - there may be a... More

We were really looking forward to our pizza in this famous pizzeria given the publicity from the Eat, Pray, Love movie and it was to be our last pizza from our trip to Italy. Unfortunately it was a major disappointment. We got a seat no problem as it was late afternoon but the staff and very unfriendly, it was tough... More

I can't believe that someone gave a negative review about this place. Who says that the pizza wasn't good doesn't know anything about real Neapolitan pizza. Without doubt the best pizza ever. The long wait is worth it.

Hum, sorry folks I know some of you are reading trying to decide and are reading every other review that says wonderful-bad. I can't help but say I don't know what the complaints are about seriously. First we stopped in on our way south, we got there literally right before the rush. The pizzas came quicky, and well yes it... More

There was a line waiting when we arrived. We got our number from the cashier/host who said it would be a 30 minute wait. It was. After about 30 minutes of waiting along with a crowd, my husband and I were sat in a table for 4. The host quickly sat another couple at the same table with us. There... More

Great pizza and almost worth the 45 min wait to get a table. Once in, service is fast although I suspect the pizza only tastes so good as we were waiting so long! Try it!

My family and I spent a week in Naples, trying out what were the best reviewed places, and Da Michele was the absolute best. The pizza is huge and no one in my family was able to finish a whole one to ourselves (pizzas are only 4-5 euros too! So cheap!) but looking around, everyone else was able to finish... More

After reading so many amazing reviews, this was on the top of our list to go and try. After finding it and waiting, we finally got our pizza and took it outside to eat. i mean really??? this pizza was burned pretty bad on the bottom and tasted like a burned mess, and the topping was SO goopy that it...
