"I found this place by chance while walking by. I ordered the il cuoppo di mare, and since it was fried fresh it took about 10 minutes. It was hot and delicious. The price was not bad and the portion was just right. I accidentally dropped an anchovy and even a local pigeon enjoyed it. A nice little find!"

"Found this by chance. Lovely snack for a break in a cosy street side setting. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Waiting time was 10min. But within that time, owner found us a seat so we sat to enjoy the food. Fried but not oily and tasty. Couldn't help but to buy a beer (Italian beer of course) which complimented the food well."

"Had the cuopp e mare (fresh seafood) and it was fried in a light batter. Delicious seafood. Personally not a great fan of the fried dough that was added but I guess that is an acquired taste. Chairs and tables on the street which is great for people watching while you chow down on the cuoppo."

"A small food shop serving cuoppo food at the center of Napoli. The biggest issue is the service: one person to take the orders and also prepare the dishes. This can cause many issues, as there is no name or order number kept. When they call just the name of the dish anyone can claim it and this can cause delays and disagreements. The food is fine for fried stuff and very tasty. There are no seats though and this is a bit problematic if you just want to enjoy your food relaxed."

"Delicious crispy fried baby squid and also fried anchovies, the only thing I didn’t like was the dough balls, they were oily, and I think kind of stale but other than that the seafood is amazing crispy fresh and customer service was great! Probably the best cuoppo I’ve had in Italy"

"had the o cuop e mare and it's good! it came with generous serving of different seafood and they're really nicely fried. it was just lightly battered so it's not so doughy. there are fried doughs which are just normal tho. however, felt that the service can be better. the staff was not so smiley and he asked us to eat at one table although there's nobody else other than us."

"Enjoyed the il cuoppo di mare (fried seafood mix), but not so much the included 2 pcs of fried dough. Overall, I was a happy customer. Glad we were able to squeeze this in as a snack before leaving Naples."

"A good place to try street food. There might be a line with a little wait but no problem. They have about a dozen different cuoppo. I got the Il Cuoppo di MARE (seafood) which had baby cuttlefish, baby squid, anchovies, shrimp tail, fried cod, and fried dough. Perfectly fried and not too greasy. Some tables and chairs are available or you can eat it on the go, after all it comes in a paper cone with a pick to eat it with. Recommend this place for a traditional Neapolitan treat."
