"The capriciossa, topped with prosciutto, artichoke, mushrooms and tomatoes, is a stand-out. The crispy prosciutto and briny artichokes combine wonderfully with the richness of the cheese."

"Di Matteo, one of the few places where ripieno fritto (fried calzone pizzas) is to be recommended."
"The best of the Street-za's we tried, though it may have been luck of the draw—our pie had come fresh out of the oven, the crust still crackling slightly as it was folded."
"Always bustling with locals, ‘di Matteo’ was originally founded in Salvatore Di Matteo in 1936. Back then it served poor local children “scugnizzi pizzaioli”, who spent more time eating pizza than going to school! Their menu is simple and you can order a "Bufalina DOC" for about five euros, and wash it down with a cold bottle of Peroni."
"8 of the best pizzerias in Naples: Di Matteo, on the Via dei Tribunali in the old historic center of Naples, the dining rooms are upstairs but the action is on the street. The baked pizzas are prepared in rapid succession by the two pizzaioli who shape them and a third who works the turquoise-tiled, wood-fired oven. What to order: Bufalina DOP."
"Discover The Best Pizzerias In Italy: Di Matteo - It’s tough not to like pizza in the very place where it was invented but Di Matteo is believed to serve the best pizza in Naples. Must-try: Pizza fritta—a deep fried pizza with ricotta and provolone cheese."
on Pizza fritta
"My favorite pizza – in this perhaps I’m quite American – I love “pepperoni” pizza – in Italy salame piccante, please – and the hotter, the better. They call it the “Devil” pizza – Diavola Pizza and this one was very spicy (it was so hot, and delicious!)."
