“The food was amazing. We took our priest who lived in Rome for 5 years and he said it was better Italian food than he had in Italy. We will be back. The servers are friendly and very on top of things.“

“Absolutely superb food and service!“

“Love love love this little restaurant! We had the same server as last time (so sorry that I forgot her name but she has short blonde hair and glasses) and asked if she was part owner of the restaurant because she takes that much ownership over customers having a great experience. She is superb! Chef is also amazing and comes to the table to shave fresh truffles over the pasta special (as he does it, I am pretty sure the clouds part and angels are playing harps . . . ) Just a wonderful experience coupled with an intimate atmosphere. Fab!“

“Outstanding food! This was our first time here and the patio was beautiful and the food was amazing.Our server Quinn was super helpful with suggestions and very knowledgeable about the menu as well as very friendly. We will definitely be coming back and requesting him again“

“We were in town visiting family looking for some good pizza. This place was great, pizza was REALLY good. Waiter brought me a beer, almost said gracias but realized I was in an Italian joint and said grattzi, he quickly responded prego, made my night. Highly recommend it.“

“Had a fantastic evening this past Tuesday. Not our first but as great as previous. Consistency is the key to success.. We were a group of four and each had a different entree. No complaints all around. Now for the service. Susie was absolutely fantastic. Her Italian accent is perfect even though she is not Italian!!! Delightful, funny with a great attitude. Even though she had several tables, she always found the time to make us feel special. My next reservation will definitely include a request that it be with her as the server.“

“If you don't like hard pasta, and even if you specify that you don't like it al dente you're gonna have to really impress upon the folks there that you like soft pasta. Every time I ask for it not to be hard I've gotta return it while everybody else is already eating“

“Stopped in while visiting Naples for work and I’m so glad I did! Amazing food and service! I’m just sad I live too far to go back everyday. Will Stop in on my next trip to Naples.“

“This Italian eatery is a gem that delivers far more than its casual setting might suggest. We came in with a simple craving for Italian comfort food and left with an experience that balanced authenticity, creativity, and warmth, all in one delightful meal.

Our family opted for two dishes: a classic cheese pizza and a unique pasta quartet featuring rigatoni, spaghetti, and torchio — a playful twist on a traditional sampler. The pizza arrived with a perfectly blistered crust, thin yet sturdy, allowing the vibrant San Marzano-style tomato sauce and generous layer of cheese to shine. The flavor was balanced and nostalgic, yet refined. It offered a nod to true Neapolitan roots with just enough golden char on the edges to satisfy even the most particular purist.

The pasta dish, however, was the true standout. It was an imaginative offering that merged three distinct shapes into one cohesive plate, each cooked to a precise al dente. The rigatoni held bold sauces with authority, the spaghetti brought familiarity and comfort, and the torchio, a rarer find, added a delightful texture and visual flair. The sauces were deeply flavorful, showcasing a harmony of slow-cooked tomato base, aromatic herbs, and just the right touch of garlic and cheese. This dish felt like a culinary journey through Italy’s diverse pasta regions, thoughtfully composed and satisfying from first bite to last.

What elevated the entire experience, though, was the service. The staff were genuinely warm and attentive, effortlessly blending professionalism with friendliness. It’s the kind of place where you feel like part of the family from the moment you walk in, a quality all too rare these days.

In short, this isn’t just a place to satisfy a craving. It’s a place that reminds you why Italian cuisine, when done right, is so enduring. If you're in search of soulful food, kind service, and a dining experience that feels both familiar and special, this little gem is well worth your time.“

“The food and atmosphere is absolutely amazing!“

“Came here first time with some friends on recommedation from my neighbor. Got here at 6:15 not knowing about the half price specials till 6:30. Ordered our food from the full Italian menu asap. The calamari and pizza appetizers were on our table in less then 10 minutes and both were delicious. All the food was delicious and large portions. You know your in a real Italian place when there's very good home made bread and garlic olive oil on the table. Best Italian food in Naples and reasonably priced. Super fast service as well in less than 30 minutes we had our entire meal. Will come back again and again.“

“The Best. Always had a great meal and David is great waiter.“

“I have been driving by The Sauce Lady for a year now. I finally stopped in yesterday hoping that I was going to get real Italian food. I have been living in South West Florida for 28 years and haven't found any good Italian food. The saucy lady didn't disappoint me. I brought chicken parmesan, chicken cacciatore and chicken marsala. I loved each of them! I would recommend them to anyone who loves Italian food.“

“This is a private club and I was honored to be a guest. Veljko was the perfect host and everything is perfect. I mean perfect cocktails, appetizers, soup, salad, steaks and desert. The wine collection includes 40,000 plus bottles. If you are fortunate enough to be invited come hungry.“

“I read about this place on FB described as an old time italian restaurant and that's exactly what it was. Delicious i had haddock italian style with pasta but it also came breaded too. Minestrone soup so good. Husband had pork and really enjoyed it. Tiramisu also good being sicilian ancestry i live pasta with sauce that's plain not overly seasoned or spicy and this sauce was wonderful“

“The restaurant has a great special going on..appetizer, entree, dessert (special menu) for $29. Can't beat it. I had a salad to start. It was fine, but the parmesan crisps were so hard they were almost impossible to break to either put over the salad or nibble on. I had the gnocchi. It didn't have a lot of flavor & it was dried out on top..like it had been sitting under a heat lamp..maybe..? My friends really enjoyed their meals..ravioli & salmon. I had the Dubai sundae for dessert. The gelato (chocolate & pistachio) was creamy & flavorful. The restaurant was decorated nicely & the staff was friendly. I would go back..maybe try a different entree though.“

“We just had their pizza for the first time. It was amazing. This pizza beats any other pizza in Naples. The flavor and the crust were unbelievable, true Italian.“

“The food was absolutely amazing.“

“I drove a group of seniors to Carrabba's for lunch this past weekend and wanted to commend Andros, our waiter, for his kind consideration and outstanding service. Everyone enjoyed their meals, the portions were HUGE, and we are all looking forward to returning real soon. Thank you.“

“Best Italian food in Naples, Food is great, very clean and the staff is fantastic. A must visit if you are in town.“

“While staying in the Naples area we had pizza delivered to our Hotel. The pizza arrived within 35minutes. It was excellent and the thin crust made it even better.“

“Always recomendable, their pizzas are spot on, pasta dishes devine. Always a good experience.“

“Good experience, food was excellent, service on point“

“Food and drinks were yummy! Atmosphere is amazing! The server in the dining area was top notch but bartender could use a little personality. His drinks were good though, just not very friendly or inviting“

“Very reasonable Dining passport pricing for July & August! However, Most unreasonable was their pricing for a glass of wine ($19) was the least expensive on its wine list!! Also, I was charged $8 for a glass of unsweetened ice tea! I think that is highway robbery!!“

“We had a great time at Mino. We sat at a high top in the bar and just got apps. Our server (bartender) was so kind and I could tell she loved her job. Watermelon salad was delicious and burrata is *chefs kiss*. Can’t wait to go back and try some pizzas next time!“

“This was my first time to this Ritz-Carlton restaurant. It is the general dining facility of the hotel. We came for the Brunch ($38) which has enough options to satisfy most people. Note there are no carving stations but there is an omelet station. Bloody Mary’s are included; however, alcohol is an additional $12. What I liked: - The availability of fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, instead of orange juice - They offer sealed portions of butter, jam, jelly, Heinz ketchup, pure maple syrup, etc. - All of the food we ate was very good to outstanding. I focused on the fresh fruit, lox, Eggs Benedict, bacon and roasted potatoes. - The hostess and service were very engaging and attentive - They provide a Terrazza embroidered blanket for those who might be too cold! - They have an omelet station What I Did Not Like: - Our table was very wobbly and required a “stabilization tune-up” by the staff - There were no bagels for the lox - The English muffins used for the Eggs Benedict were not toasted enough - Trying to get the cream cheese was nearly impossible. It is hard to remove when right next to it, however it was located at the furthest point under the plexiglass cover. I needed to do the “Gumbo Limbo” to get it! After tax and tip, you are at $50/pp which you can rationalize as a value since it covers two meals and more than covers the cost of ordering the lox and Eggs Benedict ala carte. I highly recommend you treat yourself soon and stop in for the brunch.“

“Found a place that makes a pizza that tastes like up north. Tried many places and San Giuseppe beat them all, Friendly atmosphere, small place but well worth the wait. find out for yourself. try it. You wont be disappointed.“

“A recent gathering hosted a group of 20 guests at Olive Garden. Andrew served as the waiter and demonstrated exceptional efficiency and attentiveness throughout the event. Each guest received a separate check, which made the dining experience seamless. The venue proved to be an excellent choice for accommodating a large party. Alley, the manager, was instrumental in coordinating the gathering and provided valuable support during the planning process. Due to the positive experience, there is consideration of returning for future events. Overall, Olive Garden received high praise for its service and hospitality.“

“Awesome dinnerAtmosphere was phenomenal great menu great appetizers excellent wines“

“We had a fantastic time celebrating a milestone at this restaurant. The private dining area was perfect for our group. The flavors in each dish were perfectly balanced, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. The staff went above and beyond to make our dining/Party experience memorable. They were attentive to all our needs! The service was impeccable. Our glasses were never empty, and the food arrived promptly. Joe and his team are second to none!! I highly recommend!“

“Nice place to spend an afternoon or evening with your significant other. Varied restaurant choices, and even a movie theater which offers meals as well. Don’t forget dessert!

Nearby Whole Foods if you forget some last minute groceries before you go home!

Many clothing stores as well.

Covered and open parking convenient.“

“My chef son goes here for lunch on his days off! Love their pistachio latte and fresh made from scratch pastas. Who am I kidding? I love everything!“

“Food was very good, we had amazing service. Everything came out so quickly and it was an enjoyable experience.“

“Always loved this restaurant, but went recently and their menu is now very limited. Eliminated the great chicken Francese and ran out of the wine I usually get. Disappointed“
