Stuzzico By Lucius

My family and I stopped by this amazing restaurant after touring Pompei. The food was really fantastic! My wife got the Special of the Day that consisted of Seafood Ravioli and I got Linguini and Seafood. Both were so unbelievably delicious and so fresh and flavorful. I'm so glad we stopped by! The Chef was very attentive and really puts his heart and soul into his food. Highly recommend!!!!

Very very very delicious food! The chef was amazing! Really good service. Definitely going back if i'm ever in Pompei again. Highly recommended!

We came here to eat one night during our stay and was hands down the best food we had during our trip. The owner/chef was incredibly friendly and could tell she took pride in her restaurant and cooking.

I highly recommend coming here and supporting this restaurant. You will not be disappointed!

Best pasta we have ever had. The special ravioli and the bolognese were amazing and fresh. The chef and staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Overall great restaurant.

Really delicious local restaurant! It was a typical Italian atmosphere and I liked it a lot. Everything was extremely delicious and we managed to finish all our food. The gnocchi was amazing. As a big fan of Italian cuisine I definitely recommend going to this restaurant if you are in the area!

Fantastic.

Upon spending all day in Pompeii and exiting near the Amphitheater you will come upon one of the best hidden surprises of Pompeii.

We ate magnificently, and Chef Lucio made us feel special. He was warm, attentive, patient, loving, takes incredible pride on his work, and made us feel at home. Would absolutely come here again.

Amazing little trattoria with an authentic atmosphere and wonderful service.
Dined here with my wife and two children after a long day ascending Vesuvio.
The fresh fish was grilled to perfection and the children enjoyed their pasta.
Desserts were amazing as well.
All at very reasonable prices.

The best restaurant!!!
Luigi, his owner, takes care the customers personaly. The food is amazing!!!! He makes food orders from scratch. Prices are very good. The restaurant is a very cozy small place. Not fancy but the best!!!
It feels like family meal. Ask for the daily dish.

Stuzzicò is one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten in. Even though it is an unpretentious venue, the service always makes me feel like I am in 5 star's restaurant. I credit it all to chef Lucius, which is one of the most creative cooks and welcoming hosts. He's food is not only delicious, but always original, fresh and perfectly executed. I encourage everyone to trust chef Lucius recommendations and inspiration of the day, which always amaze me (like the ricotta and fish ravioli I had this time). Ever since I visited Pompei the first time 6 years ago, I always make my way to this restaurant whenever I am in the Campagna. I also recommend it to all my friends, even if it means going out of their way, because it is always worth it. This last visit was even more special, because I got to take my family with me and, naturally, had another amazing culinary experience. Thank you Stuzzico and chef Luciu 🙏🏻 See you next time!

Food was incredibly fresh, window in the kitchen to see it being made, the chef was incredible, waitstaff spoke in English and Italian.

We ordered the Bruschetta neopolitano for appetizers, wonderful and fresh with great portion sizes.

My spouse got the Gnochi Alla Florentino and it was a wonderful dish with well cooked pasta, and a wonderful tomato and cheese sauce.

I got the Tagliatelle alla bolognese, which was a fantastic dish with well cooked pasta, and an incredible beef sauce .

Dessert was the cream filled Babà with a cherry or raspberry sauce, I couldn’t tell, but it was very delicious nonetheless.

Portion sizes were excellent price to value. If we ever find ourselves in Pompeii we would love to be seated at their tables again.

Best food!! The chef is amazing! The ambiance the servers! There aren’t enough good words to describe our experience! Loved it! Thank you so much!

Delicious food, very nice chef! We felt like guests at chef’s home, he entertained, he cooked, he served! Very cosy atmosphere. Ravioli with yellow tomato sauce were from heaven!

One of the best restaurants I've been while in Pompeii, Luigi and his staff are amazing, food is fantastic!
All good do not hesitate!

We booked last minute and wow, so glad we did! It's a small restaurant in a great location, central Pompeii. We are vegan so hoped we would find a dish from the menu but there were multiple choices that the chef talked us through and they were honestly delicious and so fresh. I even had the truffle for my pasta dish grated at the table which I loved! I really recommend, a lovely family run, authentic Italian with lots of character. We would happily return!

There’s nothing about this place I didn’t adore. From the chef telling us the specials, to the decor, the friendly staff, and even the cute Monk table reserved sign. The food was delicious and expertly prepared in a non-pretentious and comfortable sitting. I will eat here every time I’m in Pompeii.

Great Restaurant with personal service and delicious food. Highly recommend hand made pasta dishes and the tiramisu. You won’t be disappointed by the dining experience.

Absolutely stand out meal. All the pasta dishes were excellent but the ravioli special blew us all away. As I was waiting to pay the bill I had the privilege of watching the kitchen crank out a twelve top with sublime choreography. Chef was lovely.

My friends and I had a great time. Chef Luigi makes the food right when you order it and said he loves what he does. Very nice service and has a relaxed environment

Probably the best Ravioli I've ever had. Great Service and even better Italian home kitchen. Tip: ask Lucius for recommendations! Be early, it fills up quickly.

This is the best restaurant in Pompeii. The meals are all individually prepared by the chef The specials are excellent . It is a very personalised service . Lovely environment and highly recommended .
