Pazzo! is one of the most reasonably priced Italian restaurants in Naples, particularly for Fifth Avenue South. The decor at this "crazy" (as the name translates) restaurant, purportedly one of the most exciting in town, is casual and modern with a bit of a Southwestern influence. The display kitchen adds an air of Iron Chef drama to the dining area.
Menu favorites here include roasted octopus or house butternut squash ravioli appetizer, classic Caesar and buffalo mozzarella Caprese salads, homemade pasta dishes, grilled fish and meat, and grouper or veal piccata. The wine list here is quite admirable, and the dessert menu downright irresistible.
