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.
