L’Oro Di Napoli - Amazing service and food! - Italian Near Me - Petaluma, California

Had the best experience. Great food and incredible service. Eddy was phenomenal. 10/10 will come back.

Loved everything about this place. The ambiance is warm, inviting, and effortlessly stylish, modern without feeling cold. The pizza was fantastic, and knowing the flour is imported from Italy makes perfect sense once you taste the crust. Authentic, simple, and absolutely delicious. What really made the evening special was our server, Bethany. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, striking that perfect balance of professionalism and warmth. One of those restaurants that gets both the food and the hospitality right. Can't wait to come back. read more

There's a parking lot by the park down the street which I discovered while calling an uber! I was in town for the weekend and decided to check out an Italian restaurant and this place was number one when searching for places on Yelp. I thought the interior was beautiful and fun, filled with art and windows. My server and restaurant staff were super attentive, my water was always filled. I ordered the house bread and bolognese and... it wasn't anything extraordinary. The bread came with two sauces/spread and I don't know I honestly would have preferred butter or I should have gotten the focaccia bread. I believe the house bread was $8 and the focaccia was $12. The bolognese also didn't really have any flavor to it, the portion was pretty big though. I guess they were taking pictures and filming for content for the restaurant as well. Noise level can be pretty loud at times. read more

Your kindness and attention to detail were truly appreciated. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be returning. Highly recommended! read more

Our Bartender, Eddie, was exactly what you are looking for when looking for a great dining experience. He was attentive, expedient, knowledgeable and professional. With a long running background in restaurant hospitality, Eddie is a wonderful ambassador for L'Oro Di Napoli. The owners and General manager should feel lucky to have such a gem behind their bar. Keep up the good work Eddie! We will be back!!!! Sincerely, Petaluma natives that appreciate people who appreciate people. read more

Great delicious food! I loved the presentation of the Tiramisu. Our server was busy, though, I appreciated the constant updates from him regarding our order. It's definitely loud and lively. This is not a complaint. If you're planning a romantic quiet dinner, this is not the place. But if noise levels aren't really a concern, this is definitely the place. I enjoyed the Pappardelle al Tartufo with a Lady in Pink cocktail. I did not finish my meal. I was able to actually make it three meals for myself. I enjoyed the train very much. I noticed when I walked in that they have a bar area in a separate room which I would like to visit sometime. The restaurant it's itself it's really nice on the inside. I felt like I was in Italy with all the decor and our servers accent. I enjoyed my visit very much and will be returning sometime soon. read more

I'll concede that L'Oro Di Napoli is not meant for salad lovers, so if your heart is in carbs, this review may not be for you. But if you do love greens-forward food, you may be as disappointed as me. Actually, based on previous reviews, the Insalata di Barbabietole showed promise, but the execution was a mondo letdown. There were hardly any beets, no hint of the ricotta, and the lemon dressing was nowhere to be found. The only distinguishable flavor was untempered bitterness from the arugula. Add on the $16 price tag and you've got a real dud on your hands. Given the meager offering, I supplemented with a Brussels sprouts appetizer which was a step up from the low bar set by the beets, a generous helping of Pecorino Romano leading the charge. I was left satisfied by the Brussels but was dismayed by the meal at large. Nonetheless, the space has a charming amount of kitsch, and the servers were clearly attentive to the diners' needs. I may recommend L'Oro for gourmands of a different disposition, but I would not recommend it for myself. read more

This bustling place serves great delicious Italian favorite in a modern setting. It is a very loud restaurant. The help was charming and attentive. Our appetizers were perfect portions. I always appreciate it when something comes three to an order and there are four people, for the waitress to ask if we wanted a fourth meatball. Thoughtful. Silly not to. The Brussels sprouts could have used more char and flavor. The pizza with truffles smelled heavenly. The pizza had plentiful toppings. They serve the tiramisu in an espresso pot. A clever touch. read more

My friends and I had the BEST lunch at Napoli. The Brussels sprouts (usually reserved for dinner) were delicious, as was daily special pizza. Our waitress, Christine, was a delight. I will definitely be back! read more

I love this place! From the moment I walked in, good vibes all around. Julie is serving me at the bar and she is on point. I started with a glass of Vermentino and the Insalata Della Casa. How many house salads come with artichokes and pickled onions these days? It was light and refreshing. Moving on to the pasta course. I ordered the Scarpariello and it was surprisingly light for a pasta dish, and loaded with flavor. Yellow and red baby tomato sauce with fresh basil, Calabria chili and pecorino. I wanted a glass of red to accompany the dish and was contemplating a Primitivo. When I mentioned this to Julie, she offered an off list Primitivo without the jammy punch. It was nice, she was on to what I was trying to achieve. I ended up with a Sangiovese and my dignity. All around a great experience and I didn't feel like I was mugged after paying the bill. I really appreciate a good glass of wine for $12-15. I am exhausted by paying $20 for mediocre wine in wine country. Thank you Julie and company for appreciating your cliente. Oh, and don't get me started on the pepper grinder. Seriously, order pepper on EVERYTHING!!!!!! read more

Delicious pizza and a seriously buzzing atmosphere. Our waiter was attentive and the wines were really tasty. Note: the focaccia is not what you might be thinking of... it's more like a pizza without toppings. Perhaps this is something Americans misunderstand, but I was expecting something more pillowy. This lacked flavor for the most part. Also to note: the bruschetta used pretty flavorless tomatoes. That was surprising during tomato season. They were also logistically difficult to eat since the bread was thick and kinda hard. Otherwise, the calamari and all of the pizzas we ordered were delish. read more

My friend said "This was the best food I've EVER had in my life". Yes... the sea bass was pretty incredible. The wood fire pizza was fresh and made me happy. The caprese appetizer made me want to can cherry tomatoes. The tiramisu had the perfect density. And our server, Christina, was wonderfully friendly and attentive. There is no reason for not eating here! And the Santa Rosa location is also amazing! read more

Finally got to try this spot in downtown Petaluma and what a treat! So glad we made rezzos as it was slammed. It's conveniently located next door to brewsters so come early and grab drinks there before your dinner reservation! The decor was super cute with modern Italian decor and great pics of Italy everywhere. The food was some serious Italian comfort food, with a great wine list and aperol spritz/hugo spritz flowing. The wait staff were so friendly, efficient and attentive. We had the meatballs and the mushroom truffle toast to start and then had the gnocchi and bolognese and ended with the Nonna tarte and tiramisu served in an adorable mokka pot. I wish I had snapped more pics. It was all amazing!!!! I really hope this place sticks around!!!! read more

Ambiance: This spot seemed popular and newer, so we thought we'd check it out. Restaurant was crowded and loud (just a little too loud for our tastes since we had a hard time hearing each other). Decor was nice and the little lamp and flowers they had at the center of the table was a nice touch. Service: We hadn't made a reservation, but were sat right away. It took about 20 minutes for our waitress to come and take our order. It felt like a long wait and it seemed like the wait staff was stretched thin across the restaurant since I only saw a couple of waiters across the whole place. Fortunately, once our order was taken, the food came out in a more reasonable amount of time. However, in general, our waitress didn't come and check up on us very much throughout our meal and it felt like we needed to go out of our way to get the service we needed like refills and new napkins. Food: Salads were good. Unfortunately, it seemed like all the other dishes we ordered had the same problem - very salty. I thought the calamari was good since it's supposed to be salty and they gave you a good amount of it compared to other restaurants. However, we ordered a couple of pizzas and they were just so salty it was hard to get past. We also ordered the lamb chops and the meat quality just didn't taste quite right. We couldn't really put our finger on what was wrong, but ultimately we had to send it back. Overall, it felt overpriced for the food quality we received. read more

The food was incredible and our server, Cristina, was very kind. Highly recommend the Strozzapreti al Tartufo(mushroom pasta).

My family went to L'Oro Di Napoli to celebrate a birthday, the service and the food was amazing. The place looks amazing - great for a celebration, date night, or business dinner.

Rustic authentic Italian cuisine served in the heart of downtown Petaluma, L'Oro Di Napoli and their impact on the dining scene in Sonoma County is just being felt as this is their second location and first in the city of Petaluma. Located on a busy intersection of Petaluma Boulevard North and East Washington Streets, L'Oro Di Napoli comes from partners Domenico De Angelis and Roberto Sbaraglia, who came together to share their ancestral cuisine with those in wine country. With their first location in downtown Santa Rosa making waves in such a short amount of time, it was only logical that a second even larger location would open in the heart of Petaluma replacing the long standing Lemongrass Thai Noodle. What brought a friend and I here for a quick dinner on a chilly weekend evening was the fact that Petaluma was bustling with activity that no matter where we went, every place had a room filled with customers. Thankfully when we happened upon L'Oro Di Napoli they had just opened for dinner service, and neither of their two bar areas that they conveniently have, were filled with diners just yet. Getting two seats at the bar was just some of our luck, as their dining room too would be filled with diners the longer we stayed in our seats. The dinner menu at L'Oro Di Napoli is separated into categories including Antipasti E Fritti, which was their appetizer and salad menu; Bruschette or bruschetta menu; Paste & Main or pastas and main courses; Le Pizze or pizzas; Contorni or sides, in addition to their wine and non alcoholic beverages; and their dessert menu. There were a lot of enticing menu items to choose from and our bartender / server Karla recommended their signature pizzas on their menu with their Boscaiola and their Manca Style being top sellers. Their Manca Style pizza was topped with sliced roasted potatoes, marinated cherry tomatoes, onions, Fior di Latte, basil and parmigiano. After learning that this pizza would only be available for a limited time, we both decided to order to share a couple of slices. To start our meal, we split their Insalata della Casa, which featured a mix of green salad topped with artichokes, marinated onions, dried tomatoes and a lemon mustard dressing. Our meal began with our salads and the biggest surprise was the fact that they were nice enough to split them into two salad entrées at no additional cost. These two salads served with extra pepper ground from a mill on top were the nicest salads that I have enjoyed in quite some time. Fresh with an abundance of vegetables with just the right amount of salt and seasoning, it was a great way to start our meal. While waiting for our freshly made, handmade pizza to arrive, we had the chance to take in all the lively activity of this new restaurant. The space is essentially two dining rooms separated by a wall, which helps keep the sound well-contained, so even with a full house, we never had to raise our voices to hear one another. It made for a comfortable and enjoyable dining atmosphere. Our pizza would arrive, and it was a delicious and unexpected way to enjoy fresh toppings on pizza. When adding in their accompaniments, including one of the spiciest hot oils that I have tasted, it only enhanced our meal. Being able to save a slice for takeout was an extra bonus. With extra room to consider dessert, it was recommended that their tiramisu was their handcrafted signature dessert, and we were sold. A traditional dessert filled with espresso soaked ladyfingers, with mascarpone cheese in between and topped with cocoa powder, what wasn't expected was the fact that this chilled dessert was served in an Italian stainless steel espresso maker. With our dessert finished and all the fun that came with it, our perfect meal at the perfect restaurant felt complete. Our final bill came to $54.02 which, for three courses shared between two people, I consider very reasonably priced. I'd happily return to L'Oro Di Napoli anytime I'm strolling through Petaluma. Diners here embark on a true culinary odyssey that celebrates the authentic flavors of Italy, thanks to their commitment to crafting each dish with the freshest, locally sourced ingredients, ensuring every bite is a symphony of flavor. read more

I remember when the Santa Rosa location opened up, and I tried a couple of their pizzas. I'm happy they got a Petaluma location since I've moved back there. I tried it with my aunt (who's a picky eater) and my cousin. Started with the bruschetta which was very refreshing. Tomato's were firm and juicy. Great and simple starter. We got two pizzas, but the pistachio one was our agreed favorite.. I thought it would be too complicated for my aunt, but she enjoyed it. The server was super friendly and helpful. She recommended the pistachio cake which we all absolutely loved. My cousin got some vanilla ice-cream with espresso, which he enjoyed too. Great looking restaurant. Very cosy. We sat next to the bar area. There was a cool projector displaying an old school film on the brick wall. Music playing was nice. All in all good ambiance. Glad we got to try it. Definitely a place worth eating there and enjoying. I don't think take out pizza would be the same. Gotta have it nice and fresh. Definitely will try their pasta dishes and other appetizers next time I visit. read more

L’Oro Di Napoli - Tia - Italian Near Me - Petaluma, California

The restaurant is located in downtown Petaluma. Thursday night parking takes a minute to find . we had a 7 pm reservation and arrived at 645. we were immediately sat in the bar. I should have known better when the confirmation reservation took a 25.00 no show deposit just in case we didn't keep our reservation we would be charged. If any of our 4 people didn't show up we would be charged 50.00 per person that the table was reserved for. We all attended but if you are more than 15 minutes late ...... It puts a question in my mind am I going to enjoy my meal when they are putting me off with what they want from me as a customer. Our waiter was nothing to write about. Someone who took our order and supplied our table with 2 tablespoons of parmesian cheese. 4 plates of pasta were ordered. if I do the math 1/2 tablespoons per order of cheese. 40 minutes after the order was placed the waiter explained that the party of 10 before us all ordered pasta so we would need to wait. Hmmm. no complimentary bread anti pasta or foccacia for our time. So I guess the rules only work to help them. The food arrives. 2 orders of the special pasta of the night. seafood combo. one rags and one with King Prawns and zucchini. At over 32.00 per plate I must say someone is making some money. I was the lucky recipient of the king prawns with zucchini. They need to change their description on the menu. All pastas were more than al dentist. Had to really cut it with a knife. Who serves chewy pasta. The kicker is my prawns possibly 2 max . Highly doubt there were 3. You're probably wondering g if I can count prawns. Not sure how to count when the prawns are chopped and so I set them aside. Needless to say I was very disappointed with the place. We will not return. Do better. The place is so loud. Beer and wine only. You can keep your rules and I have mine. Never return to a restaurant that you go to if it was disappointing. This place is overpriced loud and who wants to eat a chopped prawn. Shameful. read more

Made a reservation for three same day. Walked into a colorful waiting area. The restaurant is beautiful, the colors, tables, small window detailing I haven't seen much like it. I got the capri citrus mocktail and it was so good, the pick lady mocktail was even better. Calamari was perfect it comes with seasonal veggies as well with a side of aoli I believe. I got the Cotoletta as my main. We were still waiting on a salad as we were halfway through and server came to check in and we told her. Seemed like she had forgotten so we just told her to scratch that. The cotoletta does come with salad and the dressing was super flavorful with capers added, the chicken was okay I'll want to try something else next time. Overall pretty good! read more

Decided to try this new establishment that recently opened, great renovation and decor, ambience very nice as well as the decor-great looking bar. Place was busy and food was coming out steadily, being as we could get seated earlier we decided to eat small plates and was very happy with our choices. We also enjoyed an order of the house made focaccia with our salad. Service was witty and entertaining though very busy with other tables. We saw a lot of delicious dishes go by and decided we need to come back and continue "grazing" the menu. Well done my fellow paisans tutti delizioso! A presto! read more

Im writing this moments after I left. I went in and sat at the bar. No one talked to me or gave me a menu. I just sat there for several minutes. Then I see the bartenders return and they are just talking to themselves which pissed me off. So I decided to give them a full minute to address me after I'd been waiting a few minutes already. Pulled out my phone and timed it. Nothing. So I got up and left. Then I thought it was prudent and thoughtful to call them to let them know what happened- figured I'd give them a second chance; I was just down the block after all. I call in and the guy puts me on hold. I said I'll wait no more than 5 minutes on hold. At min 5 I hung up and decided to leave this review. Low quality of service all around. I'm currently sitting at Sugo. Walked in and a girl asked me about my book. Ordered promptly. I don't appreciate being treated like that so they get a bad review. read more

I am a sucker for wood fired pizza. Period. So, when I can walk 7 blocks from home to a new spot in town featuring just that -- well -- what took me so long? Well, the delay is over. The first thing I noticed walking in - what a transformation that has occurred from the previous Thai restaurant that occupied this location! There was some tremendous thoughtfulness in bringing out the best in this old building's space. I love exposed old red brick walls as much as I like woodfired pizza... so, another win here. The walls are tastefully adorned with artwork, and behind the bar, film noir is projected onto the brick wall. It's nuance, not movie time - and catches your eye from time to time. There is a by the bottle of wine list that I haven't really dug into very much yet, but I will next visit. By the glass, there is an adequate availability of red, white and bubbles. You can also get a cocktail.... Being a wine guy primarily, I ordered a Sangiovese by the glass, which was perfect. (I also tasted a Barbera - a little bit more ripe and full bodied so I didn't choose it for my pizza.) Karla at the bar was kind and friendly and took my order. There are a healthy assortment of appetizers available, as well as pastas and main courses, including a sea bass dish. There's those pizzas... I find the best thing to do - although they had several interesting choices - is order the tried and true Margherita pizza. The menu boasts San Marzano tomatoes being used for the sauce, which for me is so good -- and authentic to the pie. The restaurant was pretty darn busy, so there was a little bit of a delay, getting my pizza in and out of the oven. But I was just enjoying the surroundings and the environment which was warm and comfortable and inviting. The pizza arrived - probably 10 or 12 inches, cut into four larger pieces. Parmesan was brought to me by Karla, which I added liberally. The crust was perfect A a little chewy, slightly sweeter in flavor (does not taste "sourdough" which I appreciated!), and so fresh. The mozzarella was well placed and just right in amount, and the sauce was delicious. Winner. After dinner, I glanced at the dessert menu, and my interest was drawn to the tiramisu as well as a Nutella pizza. I will try them another night, and look forward to it. One other thing I'd like to address is value. Wine by the glass at $12 each is extraordinarily reasonable. my Margarita pizza was $22, also quite respectable. And another thing. There are choices in Petaluma. This doesn't take away from a great spot like Hank's at the other end of the Boulevard, or Cucina Paradiso. L'Oro Di Napoli merely adds to the riches of the Petaluma culinary scene. If you're looking for good service, good food and fantastic ambiance, you will not be disappointed! read more

$58. Cold pizza. Like, cold. Not even tepid. A salad whose vinaigrette dressing wasn't mixed before being put in its ramekin so what I got was just olive oil. For $58 dollars I would expect a little more care put into my order. Is that too much to expect? I really don't think so. Doesn't anybody care about being excellent anymore? Bummed. read more

Big fans of the Santa Rosa location so we were super excited about this Petaluma location. This location is so much bigger! The decor is so beautiful and the staff are just as amazing! They also have a larger menu here compared to the Santa Rosa location, so there's a reason to come here. We ordered the Calamari and Crocchette Tartufate as appetizers. Both delicious and stunning. Can't go wrong with them. However the mains were what had me HOOKED. The Pappardelle Al Tartufo was probably my favorite dish. The truffle sauce was SO ridiculously delicious and the handmade pasta was perfect. The flavors of this dish are just mind blowing. I also recommend the Ribeye. Insanely tender and great seasoning. That chimichurri sauce pairs so perfectly with the meat as well. Of course you can never go wrong with any of the pizzas but their Margherita is the star. Get yourself some of the seasonal veggies too! Everything was just amazing! This location definitely lives up to the Santa Rosa location. I love their extensive menu and flavors. I can't wait to come back here! read more
