We had a great experience at this restaurant. We wanted an authentic Italian meal for our last meal on our NY/NJ trip and this did not disappoint. The food was incredible and the hospitality was great. The only problem was they only accept cash as payment and we did not have enough on us when we first got to the restaurant. We had to drive back to our Airbnb to get more cash, but luckily it was only 10 minutes away. But, we were glad we returned! read more

CASH ONLY!! ATMs are a couple blocks away. You've been warned. Otherwise, food is insanely good. Family-owned business and the owner greets you at the door and hugs everyone as they come in and go out. There was someone playing music out loud which was quite a disruption to the meal, but I'm assuming the person doing that was related to / knew the owner (they were sitting close to each other). read more

Quintessential American / Jersey Italian restaurant in Union City. This is family run establishment and you can tell most of the customers have been dining here for years. I found Casa Di Napoli on Yelp and couldn't resist giving it a try. Sometimes you just want angel hair pasta in Alfredo sauce, you know? On Friday night, we called ahead and got a table for 8:30. It was pretty busy when we arrived with a ton of locals and regulars. They have a whiteboard with the specials of the day, plus a regular menu. I saw that the lobster ravioli was one of the most popular dishes on yelp, so we decided to share it as an appetizer. I was skeptical - but it was actually delicious. A dente pasta with a nice lobster filling and the vodka sauce was very good. My only comment would be that the ravioli skin was very thick, but still tasty. For my entrée, I went with the sole oregnata. Next time I might go with the scallops instead. I liked how this was cooked with the breadcrumbs and baked. Sole is an expensive and tricky fish to cook, maybe a little bit over, but I enjoyed it. All entrées come with a side of either pasta, baked potato, or vegetables. I upgraded my pasta to be with Alfredo sauce... A delicious addition. I was happy that the angel hair was still al dente, I love a firm noodle. The parmesan combo was pretty watery, maybe from the eggplant - probably our least favorite dish of the night. Will definitely come back. This restaurant provides really good American Italian classics that are comforting and tasty. Plus, it's BYOB! Bring a bottle of wine, they don't charge for uncorking. read more

Casa Di Napoli is a lovely small family owned business. The decor inside is very traditional and feels fancy but also at home. I enjoyed the ambiance and it is a good BYOB place to sit and chat with someone on a date. They have a special menu which was nice to see and i felt prices were reasonable. I ordered pesto pasta from the special menu and some stuffed clams, i was really happy with both and no complaints on flavor! The service was quick and front door lady was really nice on our way out, would go back just because she asked if we would and i gave her my word! read more

I went to this place for first time a few weeks ago, everything was ok, I went in the afternoon and food was decent like not bad. Yesterday I gave it another try but I felt the food wasn't that good, I ordered a tail lobster but was way to hard, also my friend ask for a pasta with chicken but the chicken he got was breaded chicken and also the pasta was so watery (the sauce) so the breaded chicken on it got soggy and not good. I think the server should have explained from the beginning or actually ask what kind of chicken the customer wants starting from that. Also lasagna was kinda simple and I actually have made a better version without sounding eager or something. I am not sure if was because we went one hour before the restaurant was closing and I felt they didn't put too much care to make the food, because honestly wasn't good. read more

I'd have to say that Casa Di Napoli is THE BEST Italian restaurant in the Union City, West New York, North Bergen area. The pasta is made al dente...perfect! They cook each dish on premise, and cook it to your personal taste. I swear, they have the best baked potato I've ever had! My only complaint is the fact that they should add more sauce! (wink wink) Service is very good. The good and the bad...menu wise, It's small. They've had the same menu for years, but honestly, who cares. The food is excellent and I personally like the selection. Atmosphere...nicely dimmed lighting, and the room is very small and intimate. So if you're claustrophobic, then do not go. Otherwise, it's a very nice place for a romantic dinner. Owners...love them all, they're very accommodating. Even the takeout is great! read more

Solid. Every dish we've had is great and it's always hot. BYOB. You'll want to come back.

This place is absolutely great. Fantastic food, service, great prices and byob. More importantly, as compared to other Hoboken restaurants you feel appreciated and welcome here. Come on the weekends and ask for Cheryl read more

This was literally just like eating at home. I felt like I was in a cozy little dining area, just sharing food with good company, and not just the friends I was with but also all of the people at the tables around us. It's a family-run business; the grandma came by to say hi to us and give us recommendations, while our waiter was her grandson. It was adorable and warm and homey and lovely. They have a menu with standard pasta dishes and entrees, and they also have a list of the specials of the day which they write out on a white board. I ordered the lobster and shrimp aglio olio, which was exactly as advertised. If you like garlic and oil, you'll enjoy this. The shrimp was cooked so well, and once I topped it with a ton of cheese (just how I like it), it was excellent. We also got RAVE reviews about the lava cake, so I had to get it. It was warm, gooey, and exactly what I wanted. They did not skimp on the vanilla ice cream (you know how sometimes you run out of ice cream for your dessert when you get a la mode? Yeah, not with this. I'm talking two CHUNKY scoops of ice cream). And the cherry on top is that everything is so reasonably priced. I'd love to come back. read more

One of the coziest restaurants I've been to in a while. Cash only & BYOB. Neither of those were an issue for me. Staff was friendly even though it was busy and food came out in a timely manner. Everything tasted like it was a home cooked meal- wow. Good portions and very reasonably priced. I also love the fact that this a family run business and the decor was all too precious- the details got me. I'm already planning to come back soon. read more

Small, cozy restaurant with white table cloths and lanterns on each table. Attentive service, with waiters able to describe their dishes in detail. I ordered penne in meat sauce that came the way I like it...saucy!! My husband ordered one of the specials: eggplant and prosciutto lasagna rolled up with sauce around the edge. He found it very bland, and definitely wouldn't order it again! At the end of our meal, we discovered that they only accept cash! Usually we don't carry much cash, so this could've been a problem! read more

LUNCH VISIT Hmmm.... What Italian restaurant offers Vodka Sauce without PROSCIUTTO? CASA DE NAPOLI Server displayed being bothered after informing sauce is plain, my asking after if this meant no PROSCIUTTO. Responded, you can add it for an ADDITIONAL CHARGE. Huh? I requested Lentil Soup, brought to me in a bowl. Guest behind me requested Lentil Soup and asked if in a cup or bowl. Lol. Petty the difference in price, my point is different service provided. Requested water, left for me to SELF SERVE. A lost SERVICE practice, not experienced only here, other restaurants not bother with this small detail, that can make a difference to tip, you only find this practice in RESTAURANTS focused on providing AWESOME SERVICE, and some are inexpensive. The PASTA cooked Al Dente (bravo). Linguini with ok meatball. Penne with ok breaded open large shrimp (4) and mozzarella cheese wrapped. Asked if vodka sauce with dinner PLAIN too, guess what, YES. LOL I asked, what is the signature dish here, I was provided the DINNER MENU listed on white board atop tripod. None? Fake leaves and plants, intertwined with Christmas lights, parts of walls with CHA CHAS, different ceiling fixtures, with a carpet black (from years of use, edges show pattern actually red and tan made tiny circles. Walls have a nice paisley pattern that I believe best suited for space with nothing added. Seen this place lots of times through some years, my first visit here. read more

What a hidden gem! Delicious food in a beautiful decorated house. Nice ambience. Family run with authentic people from Italy. servuce was great. It's a byob to boot. everything here is delicious and very reasonable. Had the calamari, stuffed artichoke, Grilled asparagus with prosciutto, stuffed clams- all amazing. The entrees did not disappoint. The homemade lasagna was great. The meat sauce so good reminded me of my mom's. The pork chop special was great and best chicken parm around. Loved the desserts too- will definitely be back. Just make sure you bring cash- as they do not take credit cards. read more

This place is so cozy and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Excellent service. From start to finish the food was really good. The calamari was the right pint of crispy and I wish they gave more. The shrimp Parmesan and eggplant rollatini were so good. I've never had eggplant rollatini with mozzarella so it was an interesting change to the usual ricotta. But it was delicious. It was so filling I had to take the side of pasta to go. The dessert was by far the best part of the meal. Both were melt in your mouth delicious. I'd come again for sure. Oh and it's byob but there's a liquor store down the street so you can pick up wine. And cash only. read more

This past Saturday, we had one of the best red sauce meals in a long time. Casa Di Napoli in Union City. JC folks; as good or possibly better than Fox Place or Laico's (blasphemy, I know.) Everything was so reasonably priced that we ordered like real gavones. The stuffed artichoke was huge, so tender, and super stuffed with seasoned bread crumbs. We got a parm sampler 19.95 for veal, Chicken, and eggplant with a side of pasta. Stuffed rigatoni with meatballs (16.95) calamari, mussels marinara for apps. And because it was all so good...Spinach ravioli and a meatball parm sub (6.95 ) to go. $103 before tip. Easily could have fed a family of five. Cash only, byob, call for res, but it's pretty easy. We called day of and got a nice table at six on a Saturday. read more
