Starita in Naples is widely considered one of the best pizzerias in the world, with reviewers frequently praising its light and pillowy dough. The restaurant maintains a high 4.6-star rating from a massive volume of visitors, highlighting its consistency and legendary status. While many guests rave about the classic Margherita, the 'Pizza del Papa' and zucchini flower options are also noted as standouts. A recurring highlight in the reviews is the fried dough fritters, particularly those served with pistachio cream.
