Da Donato
Genuine, heartfelt cooking in the heart of Naples

A short walk from Piazza Mercato, in the heart of Naples, Da Donato has been serving tasty, flavourful Neapolitan cooking since 1956, bringing genuine flavours, traditional dishes and plenty of passion to the table at number 39, Via Silvio Spaventa. What better neighbourhood than the historic centre, with its small squares and characteristic Neapolitan alleys, to spend an evening together enjoying the most authentic dishes from Campania? Let yourself be swept away by the warm, welcoming atmosphere of this spot and its fragrant dishes.
At Da Donato you are always welcome: here hospitality and conviviality come first, seen even in the details of the dining room where simple furnishings meet vibrant, bright colours that instantly lift the mood. Guests are looked after with service that is the pride of this trattoria, designed for relaxed and comfortable dining, led by a friendly staff ready to meet every request with a smile.

As in any self-respecting Neapolitan trattoria, the menu never lacks traditional Neapolitan dishes, such as ragù napoletano, genovese, lardiata and scarpariello, Manfredi con ragù e ricotta and many other first courses that made the history of Campania’s culinary tradition. Seafood mains vary with the catch of the day, and you can watch the chefs at work thanks to the large open kitchen. Finally, a generous wood-fired oven is dedicated to baking pizzas made to the traditional dough recipe.
Trattoria Da Donato is a reliable staple and a true benchmark in Naples, thanks to its traditional Neapolitan dishes, fresh ingredients and warm hospitality that makes every dinner special inside its intimate dining room. Take a seat and enjoy the wonderful food at this spot in the heart of the historic centre.
