Pizzeria Da Franco
More deli than pizzeria, with hams hanging from the ceiling and bottles of olive oil squeezed onto the shelves, this hugely popular place does the best pizza in town. Served on a metal tray with plastic cutlery, the house speciality comes with tomato, mozzarella, rocket and Parmesan. Expect queues most summer nights.

La Stalla
Go up the grand staircase to the large, open-air terrace covered by bamboo awnings and flanked by an orchard of lemon and orange trees. Here a small army of waiters works tirelessly, serving pastas and pizzas, meats and fish. The pastas are fine but it's the wood-fired pizzas that stand out.

Mondo Bio
Flying the banner for organic vegetarian food, this bright shop-cum-restaurant serves a limited range of meat-free dishes. The menu, chalked up outside, changes daily but might include zuppa di soia verde (soybean soup) and polpette di tofu (tofu balls).

President
Dripping chandeliers meet culinary brilliance at this charming restaurant in modern Pompeii. Here, local produce is celebrated in creations like aubergine millefoglie (flaky puff pastry) with Cetara anchovies, mozzarella filante (melted mozzarella) and grated tarallo (savoury almond biscuit). The degustation menus (€40 to €70) are a gourmand’s delight.

Da Emilia
One of a clutter of eateries along the Marina Grande seafront, Da Emilia is the archetypal family-run trattoria. It's welcoming and laid-back, and serves an uncomplicated menu of seafood classics - pasta with mussels and clams, fried squid and grilled fish. The food is delicious and the portions are huge.

In Bufalito
A brilliant Slow Food mozzarella bar-restaurant. Head here for sterling local produce – think Sorrento-style cheese fondue, buffalo meat carpaccio and salsiccia (local sausage) with broccoli. There’s regular cheese tastings, along with photography and art exhibitions and occasional live music.

Ristorante Il Buco
Hardly the hole its name suggests, this Michelin-starred restaurant is housed in a former monks’ wine cellar. The emphasis is on innovative regional cooking, so expect modern combos such as pasta with rock-fish sauce or treccia (local cheese) and prawns. Reservations recommended.

Ristorante Sant'Antonio
Running the gamut from pizzas through pastas and risottos to meats, fish, salads and crepes, the menu here is the longest in town. If you don't fancy scrolling through the whole thing, the steak is excellent and the profiteroles come in a luxurious chocolate sauce.

Angelina Lauro
It might look like a college canteen, but this place hits the spot for a filling, inexpensive lunch. Grab a tray and choose from the daily selection of pastas, meats and vegetable side dishes. You can order à la carte too, but it’s pricier and not as good.

Vino Lo Re
Vino Lo Re serves delicious revamped classics and has a savvy wine list. If you do fancy staying overnight, the owners run a stylish, contemporary B&B upstairs with air-con and wi-fi (singles/doubles €50/70).

Ristorante Lucullus
Near the ruins and set back from the main road down an oleander-fringed drive, Lucullus does good pizzas as well as classic meat dishes and a delicious penne Lucullus (pasta with squash and prawns).

Al Gamberone
This modest trattoria near Pompeii's main square serves good, no-nonsense food. Expect things like pasta with tomato sauce and nicely grilled meat served with a wedge of lemon. Afterwards, don't be surprised if the owner reaches into her bra to pull out a purse for your change.
