Unbelievably bad. Not even remotely like it was before this new management.

Cafe di napoli should change its name because it no longer serves Italian food. The Paella we ordered was awful. The rice was hard and the whole dish was burnt. The few muscles we had were also shriveled up in the shell. So disappointing!

I was eager to try this restaurant after glowing recommendations from relatives. But it sorely disappointed me. The menu was scaled down to a few entrees, 1 salad and a few tapas. The relative's much loved tapas and entrees were missing from the menu. The service was great, however the food was not brought out together so that we were eating our entrees together at the time. Kind of awkward, maybe the kitchen's fault.This restaurant would not be off the list to try again in hopes that the old menu returns.

This is a nice little restaurant with reasonable prices and a nice ambience however the food is the most terrible experience I have had in 54 years eating in Florida restaurants, would not recommend it nor will I ever eat there again, the food was absolutely disgusting, 27/January 2024

New chef. We used to love this place but things have changed.For example, the Seafood paella is way too salty. No saffron in it. Do not recommend

Last night we had a dinner reservation at Taberna Ole, Spanish restaurant. We got to the address, no rest there with that address or name. We drove around for 30 mins looking. Finally gave up. There was an Italian restaurant there called Cafe Napoli. We thought, let’s try that. Walked in and it had Spanish decor. They told us we were at Taberna Ole even though the sign out front and inside said Cafe Napoli. I’m not sure where we ate last night but the food was not Italian but was pretty good Spanish and our server was very nice.

Glorias changed the menu as of 12/23 and have removed many previous offerings. Gone are the Italian dishes we loved so much and replaced by Spanish dishes that are presented as "shareable". Very disappointed because we loved the previous menu. A word of warning for existing customers. Investigate before visiting.

I don't usually write reviews but this place was amazing! Our first time there. We were grwetwd by 3 people. The host, who was also our server, and 2 women at the bar. Our server was a young man by the name of Noyes (spelling?), very friendly, knowledgeable and professional, but not so professonal that he was "stuffy". We started with the bruchetta. You can mess up this simple appetizer but this was sooo good. I ordered the Mahi Mahi special but asked if I could swap the Mahi for Salmon and they had no problem doing that for me. It was delicious! My compliments to the chef! My husband had the Capellini Bolognes and also loved it. Not your traditional bolognese but loved it all the same. My only issue is that I didn't have room for dessert, so I got the Tirimisu to go and had it for breakfast. Made my day!!! This place is truly a great find, don't be fooled by the strip mall outside atmosphere. Reservations recommended.

Small restaurant food is good. Only beer and wine. Very disappointed in that. Not thrilled either tapas menu. Italian with a lot of Cuban
