Canta Napoli Pizzeria & Ristorante

The menu has some good sounding food on it and the place looks great. It’s a shame that in the 15 minutes we sat at our table nobody asked us what we wanted to order. Several different waiters walked near our table and served other customers, but apparently nobody wanted to serve us… all the tables weren’t even occupied so it makes absolutely no sense.

Even though I wanted to try the food I doubt I will be coming here ever again.

I don’t usually post reviews about my experiences on restaurants but this one seems to be unforgettable. Not in a good way. We have been in this place plenty of times. They were pleasant. But tonight was different.

There was a Fall fest in Mount Prospect and this restaurant was nearby. We ordered some food and drinks. When we got our bill, we noticed that there was an extra drink charged. My friend politely asked to take it out of the bill. The server came out with an angry demeanor. I asked him if everything was alright to which he responded that my friend was “bitching” about one drink. He was being rude at this point and we asked for the manager.

The manager came out and made an excuse that the server had a “long day” and he has been working since Thursday (tonight is only Saturday). He was unapologetic until we told him that the server said my friend was “bitching” about this one drink being charged incorrectly.

This place has been in Mount Prospect for a long time. Like I mentioned, my experiences have been pleasant prior to tonight. The waitstaff seemed to have been subpar tonight.

The restaurants have been multiplying around the area. There is definitely a lot of better selection. It will be a long time until I come back to this place or if at all.

Not sure why this place is only 4.1 but hey the pizza are great if you aren’t a fan of the Chicago deep dish style. And for Appetizers, the meat balls! Hmmmm! Do yourself a favor and order that.

Waitstaff was super friendly and accommodating, all food came out hot and delicious!! I’m Italian and never bother with Italian restaurants, but this is worth the trip out of the kitchen!

Get over here!

Again, a very nice experience at Canta Napoli. Pork tenderloin with roasted sprouts, potatoes, red pepper, etc., was delicious as well as the chicken over risotto with roasted veggies. Service was good despite being short-staffed on a verrry busy Saturday night.
We have been coming here for over seven years and have not been disappointed. We chose Canta Napoli as the place to celebrate our 33 year wedding anniversary. Thanks for a pleasurable experience Canta Napoli!
