Signature cooking above the sea of Posillipo
Palazzo Petrucci was born in Piazza San Domenico Maggiore, in the heart of the historic centre, and in 2008 was the first restaurant in Naples to receive the recognition of the world's most famous food guide, as the house itself recalls. Today the restaurant is on Via Posillipo, in a three-storey building with a terrace above the sea, and in Piazza San Domenico the brand's pizzeria remains.
The chef is Lino Scarallo. According to the Michelin Guide, the first-floor room is modern and simple, for 36 diners, with the kitchen in view, a new cellar and two places at the bar where the chef guides you directly.
