For me, a pizza "hits" when all of the components - crust, sauce, cheese and sausage - merge, and none of them overpowers the other. Suprisingly, Mangia Napoli in Elmhurst is close to perfection! Tasty 1/4" crust, balanced sauce, quality cheese, and a meaty sausage with just enough fennel, all perfectly coooked. And, wonder of wonders, all this was on a 10" small size and nicely priced pizza! I've gotta say, after visiting over 25 new pizzerias within a year, it zoomed right to the top of the list, rivaling the previous #1 as my new favorite. Mangia! read more

The pizza was so good! The sauce is some of the best pizza sauce I've ever had. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the online ordering system. When you add notes to your order, such as requesting a crispy pizza, those notes apparently don't make it to the kitchen and are only seen by the front-end staff. (Just an FYI) As a result, my pizza wasn't prepared exactly as requested. However, the restaurant's customer service was outstanding. They were very understanding and assured us they would take care of us next time. Great food and great customer service--I would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area! read more

Manga Napoli is a fantastic restaurant. Everything on the menu from the pizza to the pasta are delicious. I've always had a wonderful experience with the staff. Great vibes all around. I'll definitely be back soon. read more

This place has great ambience. They have a great Italian vibe and the food is delicious and abundant. Drinks are reasonable and they do have specials. My husband and I shared the Napoli special which had thinly sliced chicken with mushrooms and a delicious sauce. Yes they do allow sharing for no extra charge! Soup or salad is included. Bread is always served warm with olive oil and cheese. We always seem to have the same server which is fine because he's always been very good. There is a very nice looking bar when you enter the restaurant with tables for dinner. They serve lunch from 11-2 and then close to get ready for dinner at 4 pm. Try it, you'll like it! read more

Tried Mangia Napoli's rigatoni pistachio pesto pasta at Little Italy Fest and it was really good! The pistachio pesto was creamy and flavorful with a unique twist on traditional pesto. I wish they had a downtown Chicago location so I could grab this more often. read more

Mangia Napoli is our go-to pizza spot for half price pizza Monday. The price is right, and the pizza is fantastic.

This restaurant is exceptional. They take pride in the entrées they serve. The staff is very focused and hard-working. It's a family run business. And they have perfected many signature items. They run promotional pricing for carry out every day of the week. I love the lasagna on Thursday. The owner personally makes an Oreo cheesecake that is outstanding for dessert items and the pizza is good. The appetizers are good soup salad and a great place to go have a super meal and reasonable prices. Highly recommend this place. It's casual dinning and I love the food. read more

What a find close to O'hare airport. This is a great little family run Italian gem. Outstanding service at the bar and all scratch made classic Italian food made for a wonderful meal. Had the Veal Vesuvius and it was delicious. The sauce had a great flavor highlighted by the fresh rosemary and buttery flavor. The Veal was cooked perfectly with a very light breading. If you are near Ohare this beat airport food 100 times over!!! read more

The food was very good. Service could have been better. We just simply didn't have enough table room. We had a party of 10 and were seated very comfortably. However, many ordered pizza's and we simply ran out of table space and they kept stacking up more plates. I was a bit confused. The food is once again, very good and fresh. read more

we ordered on a monday early because it was 1/2 off pizza. My son was really looking forward to the cheese pizza which I ordered regular cook nothing fancy. This is what we got. He ate some cheese off said the crust was hard and just look at it. Ugh!!! Do better Mangia, just because it's 1/2 off does not mean 1/2 of quality. what a let down read more

Great pizza! The sausage is delicious! I placed a large delivery order for staff. Delivery was smooth and simple.

Love everything about Mangia Napoli, especially their 1/2 price pizza Monday's, and Gina

The best and I mean the best calmari in Chicago. Pasta always cooked perfectly everything tastes like it comes from Nonnas basement kitchen.

IF you're looking for a comforting dining experience, look no further than Manja Napoli! This place is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the scent embraces you. The food? Simply divine! Each dish bursts with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Napoli. But what truly sets Manja Napoli apart is the stellar service. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. And let's not forget the entertainment at the bar! Thank you Lance! It always adds a special touch to the evening. Manja Napoli has become one of our go-to spots, and I can't recommend it enough! Perfect food, great vibes, and unforgettable service. Plus it's family owned and operated!!! read more

Excellent service, the food fresh, tasty not overdone. I had the sausage with red peppers which were absolutely delicious in a light sauce. The whitefish and vegetables were also nicely done. We will eat here again. read more

I've only had the thin crust pizza and love that. Monday special is half off. Very friendly service. Anxious to go back and try other things

We are staying at the nearby Holiday Inn Express after a grueling 24 hr day of travel. Decided to order pizza delivery and Mangia Napoli did not disappoint! Pizza came early, piping hot in spite of temperatures of minus 8. Great job!! read more

food is always good service is always good i have eaten there many times and ordered take out. no mistakes always good all around

Pizza was very good. We did takeout. Cheese was good and sauce tasted good. Pizza was ready at the specified time.

Food and service were very good. Pasta Portions were big. Décor and table layout needs a bit of care! Environment is dated, reflecting previous pizza restaurant's décor. Tables are very small could barely fit our plates and glasses on the table. Would recommend asking for a larger table if capacity allows! read more

This is definitely authentic Italian food and huge portions. Gave it 4stars since service could be better, waited 10minutes for our waitress to come. Pricing is great as well. Started with stuffed mushrooms and grilled calamari, both were great. Had the chicken magnia napoli, Cajun pappaardelle, and linguine frutti. All were so good! Can't wait to try their pizzas next. read more

I have only ever gotten delivery so this is not a review for dining in. This is by far my favorite place to get delivery from. And trust me. I've tried it all. The pizza is delicious. Nice and thin great Chicago tavern style staple. The chopped salad is so delicious. I love that everything is customizable when you order on their website. I'm picky. Haha. The salad dressings are also really good. I'm a ranch girl and I approve. The cheddar cubes. Don't sleep on them. The wings are also a sleeper hot. They are big great quality wings and so nice and crispy. The bourbon sauce is so so yummy. The ribs are good. Honestly there is so much to choose from there is something for everyone and I have yet to be disappointed. Random side note- the delivery drivers are always so nice! read more

Family of 4 and everyone loved their order: Grilled veggies and grilled chicken- great Manicotti and side of sausage- excellent Kid spaghetti- al dente but very good Chicken Alfredo- best he's had read more

I've passed this place numerous times without knowing it existed. I found it one day when we were looking for pasta places. I am rounding up with just under a 4 star. I would give this place another go when we're feeling like Italian again. It was a Monday so I went with their special on thin crust pizza with sausage and giardiniera. I got a medium and I was able to eat half of it in the first sitting. Overall tasty. They cut into squares by default. I had issues with the cheese and toppings separating off the crust every time I went for a slice. My gf tried the lasagna. I think I chose bolognese for her. She enjoyed it. I just had a bite and it was a pretty sweet sauce. Prices were very reasonable. Order was pretty much ready on time. The biggest dilemma I had with this place was their menu/website and ordering. Their website didn't allow for online ordering and said to call. I called and it would ring and then go silent. I guess they were really busy because they would put you on hold without saying anything. I didn't know I was on hold until I hung up and dialed again and they said something the second time. Then when I went to pick up, I could see this practice by employees answering the phone. I understand that things can get busy, but at least greet a caller first or fix your online ordering. Later, I found another link that allowed for online ordering, but not sure if its legit since it was their main website says to call. read more

Love this place, our family used to order from the other pizza place down the street but after having Mangia Napoli food we never went back. Pizza is always so good & also if you love ranch, be sure to try their home made ranch! Layla & Gina at the pick up door is always so nice as well! Definitely will recommend:) read more

I was hoping for more. The recommended gnocchi was odd sizes and doughy and too heavy. I liked the sauce, but they didn't save it. read more

My experience is limited to a stuffed pizza (carryout), but I wasn't blown away. The pizza was fine, I suppose. The cheese tasted fine, but the sauce was quite bland and the crust was flavorless. It was like a lesser Giordano's. I would be willing to give it another try, but I wasn't overly impressed by the quality. They also had an absurd wait time when we called for carryout, so be sure to ask on that before relying on Mangia Napoli for your meal. read more
