Dambo Beef and Grill, steakhouse and grill house on Piazza Municipio in Naples

  • Grill house
  • Wine bar
  • Restaurant

Too unique for a single category.

Feel the energy of Naples and the America’s Cup in the heart of the city.

Dambo is the steakhouse on Piazza Municipio: a grill house with a cocktail bar and live music, a three-minute walk from the Maschio Angioino and five from the Teatro di San Carlo. We're open every day, all day, from noon to one in the morning, with the kitchen serving until midnight: for a business lunch, dinner before the theatre or a late drink at the bar.

On Piazza Municipio, facing the Maschio Angioino and a few minutes from Piazza del Plebiscito, Via Toledo and the port, Dambo is the restaurant, grill house and steakhouse for anyone looking for an elegant, understated and relaxed setting: the square's finest living room, where you can sit down and take your time.

The menu is strictly seasonal, with fine meats selected breed by breed — from Black Angus to Marchigiana, from Frisona to Chianina — alongside outstanding cheeses. Instead of the traditional pizza, Dambo serves its focaccelle: a gourmet take on the Neapolitan bite.

A rich list of wines and cocktails completes the offer, designed as much for travellers ashore during a cruise as for business lunches and dinners.

And at our musical evenings, the experience lights up: top-level live music in the outdoor area overlooking Piazza Municipio.
