It serves only two types of pizzas: margherita (ask for <em>doppia mozzarella<\/em>, which means double mozzarella, if you love cheese) or marinara (without cheese). The family that owns the pizzeria has been in the business since 1870 and has been in the Forcella neighborhood since 1930.

The street dates back to the 6th century A.D. when Naples was a Greek colony. Now the street is packed with tourists and locals alike. Pizzeria Gino Sorbillo is hard to miss: because of its fame, there\u2019s always a crowd outside. The pizza is worth it, though. Ultra light and airy, but packed with flavor, the pizzas at Sorbillo leave you satisfied but not bloated after your meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sorbillo now has locations all over the world, including Miami in the U.S.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.takewalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/48110615387_1dc271f083_k-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"people waiting in line outside a pizza shop\" class=\"wp-image-14594\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.takewalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/48110615387_1dc271f083_k-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.takewalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/48110615387_1dc271f083_k-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.takewalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/48110615387_1dc271f083_k-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.takewalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/48110615387_1dc271f083_k.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Gino Sorbillo, located on Via dei Tribunali in the historic center of Naples, has gained international acclaim for its authentic Neapolitan pizza.

Many locals do their shopping there, choosing fresh products from the abundant fruit, vegetable, and fish stands. Pizzeria Da Attilio is nestled in that market, in between a greengrocer, a fishmonger, and a man who usually sets up a little flower and plant stand. Aside from the classic Neapolitan pizza toppings, Attilio Bachetti and his staff make some standout stuffed-crust pizzas. <strong>The hot wood-fired crust is stuffed with fresh ricotta from the Sorrentine peninsula<\/strong>.

Founded more than a hundred years ago as a wine cellar, it morphed over the years into a fried food spot and then a pizzeria. We recommend their <strong>fried montanarina<\/strong> as an appetizer. It\u2019s a mini fried pizza with different topping options. It&#8217;s a great way to sample a fried pizza without going all in.
