    When we got to Napoli, it was jam packed when we got there and there was a big line of people which is bad for people who want to dine in but luckily we got take out which made it very quick to grab and go. The service/staff were very nice and quick with our food, when we mention our order name they went in to grab our food and it took them less than 5 minutes to get our food out. The pizza 🍕 was amazing and delicious, we should had ordered a bigger pizza 🍕 . The chicken 🐓 was very juicy and mouth watering but the fries was soggy and dull which could be better like more crispy and soft inside. We order 2 pasta 🍝 one is with ham and the other with shrimp both tasted amazing and the cheese 🫕 was even better.

    My first pizza here was in 1975 (and many more to follow in the 18 months I was stationed there) and it was one of the best I ever ate!! Returned in 2008 and they had two pizzerias and the same great taste! 2018 returned once again ate at both again unbelievable food and pizza! Will be returning in 2020 and we will be eating there never a bad meal!

    For expats: WHAT HAPPENED HERE!? Boy this restaurant got expensive, cheap and mediocre at best for quality. It has gone down hill a lot since I was here last ~2yrs ago. This is what a $12 ravioli looks like and an $8.50 ceviche. See my hand for scale. I'll pay over $20 for food and I'm still hungry. *Ugh* The service was depressed. I think they may need to give their waiters prozac or better play videos of puppies playing during their breaks? Complete disappointment in quality too. When I eat out I want something better than what I can heat up in my microwave from the frozen food aisle. This wasn't much better. Panama is going down a unfortunate spiral of degrading quality and I'm sad to say Napoli has joined the game in overpriced food & bad service that'll leave you unhappy.

    We are from the United States and it is obvious. The waiters apparently only like the locals. We saw the waiter, Harold, 10 minutes after they sat us down. We placed our order. Food came, drinks came we never saw waiter until we were done. Never came by to ask if everything was good or if we needed anything. I would have loved another glass of sangria by the way. They cleared the plates and did not ask if we wanted desert. The food though was delicious. I ordered the beef lasagna and my husband a beef Parmesan. It is very sad that the service is not at the same standards as the food was.

    Great Family Restaurant. The food is amazing. Italian Food but it is a Panamanian tradition. Panamanians love this place.

    Very tasty food, friendly environment, not that expensive, gets a bit crowded, if you reserve but not all of you are there at the moment you'll have to wait at entrance instead of at your table..

  • 4/5 Josué Maiker G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great food. Excellent ambiance. But service could be better and dishes are a little expensive. There are better options for Italian food in Panama

    This place might have years serving food, but they have the worst customer service, from their supervisors and mostly their owners. Just don’t go here, there’s real pasta and pizza in other places.

    If you happen to be in the vicinity, I highly recommend paying a visit to the Restaurante Napoli. It exudes an exceptional dining experience, offering delectable cuisine amidst a serene ambiance, providing an ideal setting for unwinding with cherished company of friends and family while relishing a splendid meal. The culinary offerings here are praiseworthy, as the dishes boast of utmost freshness and meticulous preparation. The menu features an array of small to medium-sized dishes, and the attentive and amiable server adeptly assisted us in making our selections. In light of the aforementioned attributes, I wholeheartedly endorse this restaurant and consider it a must-try destination for any discerning gastronome.

  • 4/5 Johanny 7 months ago on Google
    I've visited Napoli several times in the past 15+ years. Probably my favorite restaurant for most of my childhood. It's surely more expensive now, but the flavor has been consistent throughout the years!! Love it!

    The food was reasonable. The first waiter we had was very attentive, but apparently he went off-shift, and the next waiter was not as helpful. Overall good, not great.

  • 4/5 Jeff S. 10 months ago on Google
    Decent Italian food, wide ranging menu. The server must have thought I was waiting for someone, it took quite awhile before she took my order. Service was fine otherwise.

  • 5/5 J S. 10 months ago on Google

    I ordered napolitano salad was very good, but spaghetti was horrendous, unflavored sauce, none season, very raw, afterwards I ordered, pizza marinara is not on the menu, either the waiter, didn’t explain it self or the cook just don’t have experienced, pizza dough was cooked them the sauce was added, with nothing no oregano at least, won’t recommend this place.

    This was sooooo good. I can't believe what I have been missing. For my wife and I, this experience has moved the bar for good Italian food. We had clams, pizza and spaghetti with bacon. I am sorry I cannot remember the names of the dishes, but they were all so delicious.

    It is a cozy, no-frills Italian restaurant, where you can bring all your kids and have a family meal or just come with your friends. The service at this place is incredibly fast, and the waiters are all very professional. They are famous for their pickled eggplant entrée, so be sure to try it with a side of pita bread.

    (Translated by Google) In quality and taste they are the best, but in service they leave much to be desired, today mothers' day have been a disaster with their ordering mechanics, even if you come to the place they tell you that you cannot order in person even if you have queued To order, you must call even if they don't answer the phone. I was one of the lucky ones who could order on site, but THEY ALTERED THE INVOICE to charge the service yes or yes. (Original) En calidad y sabor son de los mejores, pero en servicio dejan mucho que desear, hoy día de las madres han sido un desastre con su mecánica de pedidos, incluso si vienes al local te dicen que no puedes hacer el pedido presencial aunque hayas hecho fila para pedir, debes llamar aunque no te contesten el teléfono. Fui de los afortunados que pudo pedir en sitio, pero me ALTERARON LA FACTURA para cobrar el servicio si o sí.
