    Came here on a Sunday night, walking by. The server was very energetic and extremely attentive. The ambiance of the place was great too! Lots to look at while waiting for the food to arrive. The tables were also clean, not sticky. The Italian guava soda and Caesar salad were SO good! Had anchovy in it too but was very fresh and the amount of salad was generous as well. The pastrami sandwich was very moist and the pastrami was so good! I've had pastrami elsewhere that were hard to eat because they were chewy or stringy but these were fantastic. Tiramisu was also very good! The calamari was slightly disappointing because the batter and actual calamari didn't go well together and texture of the fried batter was more coarse than my liking. Will definitely be coming back though!!

    My husband and I came by to try a few things from this cozy pizza spot and I must say, we left with full bellies and warm hearts. The owner and staff were really attentive, checking on us often. I saw the owner look over at the tables every chance he got to make sure everyone was happy. We got 3 pizzas, 12 pc wings, side of Meatballs, Shrimp fettuccine and tiramisu. We were offered a pistachio cake on the house! So sweet of them. We got thin Brooklyn style pizzas so that we don't get too full and can try more things on the menu. All the pizzas were delicious. My favorite were the classic Margherita and truffle pizza along with the meatballs that were made in house. The pizza came out hot, crispy and full of flavor. The pasta was really good also! It was garlicky and noodles perfect Al dente! We chatted a little with the owner who told us that most things were made fresh in house (sauce, meatballs, crust etc) that was no surprise to us because you can taste the freshness in every bite. We had such a lovely time and will be returning again in the near future!!

    We were in Walnut Creek and had a place in mind to dine at, but unfortunately they were hosting a holiday party, so we left. We noticed Napolina across the street and decided to give it a try. We ordered the ravioli, truffle fries, calamari, and mango avocado salad. The prices were surprisingly low, which made sense once the food arrived, as the portions were very small. The calamari lacked flavor, and the batter tasted more like what's used for chicken cutlets. The highlights of the meal were the ravioli and the truffle fries. Overall, the food was underwhelming, but the service was excellent. There was only one server for the entire restaurant, and she did an amazing job. Food: 2/5 Service: 5/5

    Sicilian margherita pizza, you can see how the crust looks over cooked and hard.

    I came here because my in laws enjoy this place. I ordered the Margherita Sicilian pizza because I love a thick crust. The crust was bad. Tasted stale and was hard on the edges. I had just had amazing pizza in this style in sand Diego so was disappointed this wasn't up to par. The flavors of the toppings, sauce and cheese were delicious but the crust ruined it. I was hungry so I ate it. If they work on the crust situation I'd be happy to return, since the location is great, right in todos Santos plaza. Service was great, the inside of the restaurant was a little cramped but clean.

    The Dolce El Picante is deeeeelish! Our first time here and will NOT be the last! To our surprise there is also live music getting set up as I speak, friday night!

    Pepperoni, sausage, salami and ham

    Not only was the food amazing, everyone that worked there was super friendly smiling from the kitchen. They had like 6 TVs playing sports so you were able to watch World Cup. Very clean restaurant! My hubby ordered the pizza the sauce was delicious the crust was thin and flavorful the sausage was fresh ham had a good thickness to it. My Caesar Salad had the right amount of dressing and let me tell you I ordered a side of grilled shrimp that was seasoned with garlic and spices made my whole salad. As you can tell we started to eat the tiramisu before I got a picture thank goodness I got part of it before the plate was licked clean. You need to try this place!!

    Tiramasu - decent!

    Rolled in on a Fri night about 615 on a toasty Concord evening. 2 people at the bar. By the time we left about an hour later, 2 more at the bar, another table full and one table of 6 turned over. Slow. Service was friendly, attentive, without being over bearing. Could have used another minute to figure out drinks but thats ok. Knowing the specific names of draft beers is important for some people, not just "Side Gate Hazy". Ambiance- cool spot, enjoyed the video screens running Italian / European walks. Sports on the other TVs was good for the guys. Food - decent, not outstanding. The tiramasu was decent, above average. The ravioli was good, tender pasta, good sauce. Spaghetti and Meatballs had a chunky meat sauce that was very mild, slightly greasy. The balls themselves were very tough. Portion size was good for average appetites. Menu was small (not necessarily bad) but cheap plastic. Overall an average experience. I hope tonight's flow was not typical.

    Stopped by to try this place for lunch! DJ is the man! He suggested me to try their pasta, it's so delicious! I thought I am in a fine dining restaurant! Highly recommended!

    There a lot of places to get a good burger around here. I was reminded why I come to Cafe Napolina today for my burger fix. Basic burger with fries was awesome and you can beat the price. Right at happy hour too boot! Can't lose!

    Seafood Linguini and 12" Small Tartufo Pizza

    Food was amazing. Pizza was light, not greasy, the crust held up great. Paired with the seafood linguini, it was fresh and flavorful. Definitely recommend the ricotta pista cake! It was comfortable indoors, relaxed environment. Service was attentive, overall a great experience and will definitely come again! :)

    Stumbled upon this place for lunch randomly. My dad and I wanted a small lunch to share so we got the meat pizza. It was the thin NY style. Pizza came piping hot with an incredible san Marzano tomato sauce. We finished with a cannoli. Would come again. It is to be noted from what I could see, the red wine selection was mediocre but a few craft/draft beer selection.

    Brooklyn in the house! New York in da house! I went here on the behest of my friend and she had it right - this is a new gem in Concord! Excellent marguerita pizza and the standard spaghetti and meatballs. Deejay the owner gave us the rundown on their move from Brooklyn and was kind to both of us. We had a great time! Check it out Yelpers if you want authentic New York style pizza and Italian cuisine in the East Bay!

I ordered the fried spaghetti as an appetizer, a chicken Caesar salad, the Chicken Marsala for my entrée, and an espresso martini. Everything was absolutely delicious. Our server, Brittany, was friendly, personable, and took responsibility when there was a delay in service. I asked for a bowl of water for my dog as soon as we were seated, but it took about 20 minutes before it was brought to the table and our order was taken. She sincerely apologized, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, I've experienced similar delays with other servers during previous visits. I also noticed the bartender place coffee beans into an espresso martini using her bare hands. Although I didn't say anything at the time, it made me uncomfortable from a hygiene standpoint. When I ordered another drink, Brittany used a utensil to place the coffee beans into the drink, which I felt was much more appropriate. Overall, the food was outstanding, as always, and that's what keeps me coming back. I hope the restaurant improves its service times and reinforces proper food handling practices so every guest can enjoy the same great dining experience.

Even with the place buzzing, he stayed attentive, efficient, and completely on top of everything without ever making us feel rushed or forgotten. We had a reservation and arrived right on time, made even sweeter by the rare miracle of snagging a parking spot directly out front. The hostess greeted us warmly and confirmed our reservation, but then another hostess -- I assume -- stepped in and instructed her to seat us at table #13(that wasn't the actual # but it may as well have been) The tone alone told me everything I needed to know... and unfortunately, my instincts were right. I have a strong aversion to tables near bathrooms, server stations, or high-traffic areas, and of course this table was planted directly across from the silverware replenishment station. UUGGHHH. Constant movement, clanking silverware, staff traffic not exactly the ambiance I had hoped for. I almost asked for the empty table beside it, but for whatever reason, I let it slide this time. Thankfully, the rest of the evening more than redeemed itself. The Caesar salad was crisp and fresh, the sour dough bread is served hot with soft garlic butter, the chicken piccata was rich, bright, and comforting, and the Mizithra cheese pasta coated in brown butter was pure decadence. Then came the spumoni ice cream , combined pistachio, cherry and chocolate flavors the perfect sweet finale to the meal. A full three-course dinner for $30 that actually tastes this good? Practically unheard of these days. Despite my seating disappointment, the service and food absolutely earned another visit from me. Next time, though, I'll definitely convey my seating preferences.
