Bella Mbriana
This bustling bistro, loud with the buzz of conversation and the clink of glasses and cutlery, is no ordinary Italian, but a little corner of cosmopolitan Naples complete with hearty Neapolitan home cooking by friendly owner/chef Rosario. The food ranges from rich and tasty zuppa di fagiole (broth of borlotti beans, garlic, mussels and clams) to delicious scampi Portofino (fat langoustines in white wine, garlic, tomato and fennel seed).

Gordon's Trattoria
The aroma of garlic bread wafting into the street will guide you into this snug haven of wisecracking waiters and hearty Italian comfort food. In summer you can chomp on pizza and slurp wine at a pavement table, and late-night hours means that Gordon's often develops a bit of a party atmosphere after midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

Valvona & Crolla
The menu at this bright and cheerful café, tucked away at the back of the famous deli, is based on family recipes from central and southern Italy such as penne alla puttanesca (pasta with anchovy, caper, olive and tomato) and sogliola con parmigiano al forno (lemon sole baked with Parmigiano Reggiano and cream). Fancy some wine with that? Choose a bottle from the deli on your way in and have it served at your table (around £6 corkage).

Vincaffè
Foodie colours dominate at this delightful Italian bistro - bottle-green pillars and banquettes, chocolate- and cream-coloured walls, espresso-black tables. The food is straightforward but made with the finest-quality ingredients, ranging from superb antipasto to a fritatta di funghi (omelette made with Cremini mushrooms and dried porcini, Parmigiano Reggiano and parsley).
