    Classico Pizza
    Amy K.

    Worst restaurant in Mercato, and I might even say Naples overall. The service was HORRIBLE and slow. No one came to give us water on a 90 degree day until we sat at our table for about 15 minutes. No one is friendly and about 5 different people come to serve you so you don't actually know who to call upon for service or to give a tip to. 2nd problem is the portions. They are the smallest size of anything that I've seen here. Don't come hungry because you will not be satisfied. Don't forget to bring your checkbook though because for $12 you can get a slice of white bread with a tomato as a "happy hour" treat. You can get better food at BRAVO 3 storefronts down the way at Mercato and have much better service as well. The best item of the meal was the pizza as it is very traditional style and seemingly cooked in the brick oven they have inside. The places I WOULD recommend for Italian are Caffe Milano and La Trattoria on 5th Ave S. Please don't be fooled by the crowds at Bar Tulia. Unless you're "family" they don't care about you. Pro tip: don't forget your own hand sanitizer because they don't have soap in the bathroom so god only knows how the staff wash their hands.

    Bar Tulia Mercato offers a cozy, rustic ambiance with welcoming service. We kicked off our meal with a must-order: the oysters. Fresh and beautifully presented on ice, they come with classic accompaniments, including horseradish, cocktail sauce, mignonette, and a mini bottle of Tabasco for an extra kick. Next, we enjoyed the arancini, followed by the Jabroni and Margherita pizzas. The Jabroni pizza had a great flavor profile with a satisfying kick. One nice touch is the table-side grated cheese, red pepper flakes, and salt for seasoning. It may sound unusual, but if you order the Margherita pizza, try adding a sprinkle of salt--it makes a surprising difference! Order some cocktails and enjoy a lovely meal.

    House made pasta. Delicious!!

    Just when we thought Italian food wouldn't taste good in Florida after coming from Italy 1 month prior we stumbled upon this place yesterday. Although it was raining, we still opted to sit outside as they it's covered & has a functional fan. Didn't feel the heat on a 90 degree summer day. Ambiance outside was worth it! Excellent food & service! We tried the beef carpaccio, salad as well as steak, house made pasta & pizza

    Happy hour menu
    Kristen K.

    Great spot- for happy hour, dinner, any time of day. Most recently I visited for Happy Hour- it's from 2:30-5:30! What a perfect way to end the work day happy hour is available throughout the restaurant, not just at the bar. I really enjoyed the tiki drinks- they are flavorful and not too sweet, and there's a good amount of alcohol. My friend ordered the fried chicken plate- a pretty large portion, and tasty too, with 4 pieces of chicken, good coleslaw and lots of fries, all for just $15! It was definitely slammed during happy hour and you may have to wait for a table. We got there around 5:20, and since we said were just there for happy hour, they needed our table by 6:15. We were out around 6 anyways. Our server was very friendly and remembered to check in on us plenty of times even though she was very busy. Overall, great spot for good drinks and tasty food.

    We were looking for a good happy hour and stumbled into this spot. It was packed! I should've know since it's Naples. We were lucky to get a table at 6:30. We were seated outside. Great covered patio with fans. We quickly ordered food and drinks before happy hour was over. I ordered the bucket of chicken. It was actually pretty good. I asked for a side of honey and I was content!

    The prosciutto slicer is amazing

    The food is always fabulous and the service is professional and friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed. The prosciutto is amazing.

    I stopped by Bar Tulia at Mercato on Christmas Eve expecting a special dinner, but left extremely disappointed with both the food and how the situation was handled by management. I ordered one of the dinner specials advertised as U10 (colossal) scallops with risotto, priced at $54. What arrived was a plate with three very small scallops, each measuring roughly 1¼ to 1 1/2 inches in diameter--clearly not consistent with what is commonly understood to be U10 scallops. When I brought this to our server's attention the second time she offered to have the manager come speak with us. The manager stated that a U10 scallop could be as small as 1.6 ounces, which did not align with what was served and also is questionable. I explained that the scallops on my plate were well under 1.6 ounces each and that I am familiar with standard scallop sizing. The manager then offhandedly offered to bring one additional scallop, which felt more like an insult than a solution. Adding another undersized scallop does not correct the fact that the dish itself was misrepresented. At no point was there an apology, a replacement with properly sized scallops, or any adjustment to the bill. For a restaurant charging premium prices--especially on a holiday evening--I expected better quality control and far better customer service. While mistakes happen, dismissing a valid concern and offering a token fix rather than a real resolution ensured this will be my last visit to Bar Tulia.

    Just an absolute disgrace to the Italian heritage. To hint at being an Italian family restaurant is an abomination. I brought my mentor from the Napoli family here, and he was genuinely offended. And the meatballs? I don't know what kind of operation lets something with that smell leave the kitchen.

The atmosphere is cozy with warm lighting, making it a good spot to relax and enjoy a meal. There is also a bar area with TVs, which felt a little different from the typical Italian vibe, but it did not take away from the experience. Service was friendly, but it was a busy Saturday night and you could definitely feel it. Everything moved a bit slower, and we had to wait about 10 to 15 minutes for the check at the end because our server was not around. We started with the meatballs in red sauce and really enjoyed them. Simple, flavorful, and a great appetizer to share. One thing I was not expecting was being charged for the bread. It was fresh and good, but it is not something I usually associate with Italian restaurants. For the main course, we had the cacio e pepe. The flavor was there, but the sauce was a bit too liquid for my preference. It is a difficult dish to get right, and while it was good, I think it could have been a little better. The tiramisu was absolutely the highlight. The balance between the cream and the ladyfingers was spot on, and it ended up being my favorite thing we ordered. Overall, good location, nice atmosphere, and solid food. The tiramisu is the one thing I would absolutely come back for.

For starters, we ordered the bushettas, which were deli-style, according to hubby. I had to pass because the bread wasn't gluten-free (an area for improvement). We both ordered the grilled octopus, which was incredibly delicious and the portion size was good. Their beer selection is okay, but the wine list is impressive. The best part of the desserts was their deconstructed tiramisu! You gotta try it! They have their own bakery, and showing your receipt gets you 10% off their fresh baked goods. In other words 10/10, I will come back!
