Veritas

Situated near the Vomero district, this welcoming restaurant offers attentive service and has an excellent sommelier who will be happy to guide you in your choice of wine, including recommendations from exciting small wineries in Campania. The cuisine is showcased on three tasting menus: Essenziale, Autentico and Libero, the last of which is the most typical of chef Caputi’s cuisine, with its focus on local flavours and decidedly contrasting combinations. We particularly enjoyed the spaghetti with clams, pine nuts and lemons – a pleasingly bold play on sweet and sour flavours.
