The Fork & Knife Tour: Naples for Foodies

Naples has the highest concentration of fine dining per capita in the country. But it’s not just white tablecloths; the strip mall gems and fish shacks are world-class too.

Day 1: The Sea

If it swims, we eat it.

Lunch: Swan River Seafood

It’s a fish market with a restaurant attached.

• Order: The scorched crisp snapper or raw oysters. It’s fresh off the boat.

Dinner: U.S.S. Nemo

An icon.

• The Dish: Miso Broiled Sea Bass. It has been voted the best dish in Naples for years. It lives up to the hype.

Day 2: The Land (and Italy)

Naples has deep Italian roots.

Lunch: Bar Tulia (Mercato)

Gastro-pub vibe.

• Order: The bucket of fried chicken (gourmet style) or the garganelli pasta.

Dinner: Osteria Tulia

The big sister to Bar Tulia on 5th Ave. It’s rustic Italian farmhouse cooking.

• Order: Cacio e Pepe. Simple, perfect.

Day 3: The High End

Dress up and splurge.

Brunch: Sails Restaurant

Their Sunday Champagne Brunch is legendary. Infinite courses, tiered trays, and bottomless Louis Roederer. It is an event.

Dinner: The Grill at The Ritz-Carlton

Classic steakhouse perfection.

• Order: The Dover Sole (deboned table-side) or the Dry Aged Ribeye. Finish with the Grand Marnier Soufflé.
