Invito tutti quelli che vogliono gustare le tipiche specialità fritte napoletane a Santa Marinella a andare in questo piccolo locale ma super accogliente: i proprietari gentili e disponibili ci hanno fatto sentire come a via Toledo. Meraviglioso Francesco!

You should visit italy just for this fried food shop. In my 22 years of life, definitely one of the most memorable and distinguishable taste. Simply amazing

All the food is deep fried Roman food. Very good price. Owner does not speak English but was very very lovely and really accommodating. Would recommend

Locale piccolino dove gustare degli ottimi fritti al cartoccio, i "cuoppi napoletani". Oltre al pesce fritto si possono assaggiare le montanare fritte, frittatine di pasta e mozzarella in carrozza. Ottimo

Il cuoppo della signora Imma merita davvero!!! Fritti asciutti, croccanti, leggeri. Se vuoi mangiare come se fossi a Napoli, questo è il posto giusto! Da non perdere: la montanara, davvero superlativa!

Petit local avec très peu de tables on voit qu'il y a beaucoup de vente a emporter. Même si vous prenez une table il n'y a pas de service proprement dit il ne sont que 2 donc on s'assoit et on passe la commande a l'intérieur une fois que c'est prêt le personnel nous fait signe pour aller le chercher. Donc hors mis cette spécificité l'ambiance est bonne a la bonne franquette. Pour le menu très court mais surtout TRES BON si on aime la friture. J'ai prix une friture mixé de poissons et une supplì. Je me suis régalée franchement excellent je vais surement y revenir.
