Recommendations

"Here you can find the best fried pizzas in Naples: they are light, fragrant and have a harmonious taste."
"Naples' remarkably light pizza fritta – deep-fried pizza dough stuffed with pork ciccioli (dried lard cubes), salami, ham, smoked provola cheese, ricotta and tomato – is best savoured at this legendary joint. Most regulars order it senza ricotta (without ricotta) and wash it down with sweet marsala wine."
"Mozzarella in carrozza is exquisite and inimitable."
"Everyone recommends this beautiful place guided by Enzo Piccirillo and immediately points out: only fried pizza and only at lunchtime (except on Saturdays). Hurray to someone who can make this special type of pizza as light as possible. Hurray."
"The 10 best pizze fritte in Naples: La Masardona - For Piccirillo and his team kneading, shaping and frying of pizze fritte is a life mission."
"There is no pizza fritta like the one from La Masardona, it's one of the obligatory stops on gastronomic tours discovering the Parthenopean tradition."
"Historical pizzeria, just a few steps from the Central Station of Naples. According to many, the best pizza fritta, characterized by thin pastry and the wide range of fillings."
"Known as "The Sanctuary of frying" La Masardona is an ancient Neapolitan friggitoria famous for the lightness and irresistible softness of their pizza fritta."
"The best pizze fritte in Naples: La Masardona - The pizza fritta is a part of a long family tradition here, started by the owner's grandmother. The pizza has the classic filling of ricotta, provolone, cicoli, tomato and pepper sauce, but the addition of basil leaves is what makes the difference."
"Enzos fried pizzas are a pleasure: golden, dry, very light, thin-crusted, stuffed according to the classic recipe that includes cottage cheese, pork scratching, smoked provola, basil and a pinch of pepper, with some tomato paste."
