I was in the mood for lobster ravioli, but with it being so cold and rainy I wasn't going to make the trek to my usual spot. I started searching for Italian delivery and the only place I could find to deliver lobster ravioli was Napoli's. I viewed their menu online which was a strain on the eyes as you can't zoom in- should have asked for a to go menu. The menu was traditionally Italian with a lot of dishes the imposter Italian places don't have so I was quite hopeful based on their selection. In addition to the classics they also have pizza, seafood and sandwiches. They also serve beer and wine. The prices were extremely reasonable with a lot of items in the $7-9 range, a few in the $11-14 range and even cheaper lunch specials. I found this surprising and even started to get uneasy about the quality I should expect. The ordering process was almost painful. A woman with a very heavy accent and I struggled to understand each other. There was a lot of repeating ourselves and when I hung up I wasn't sure if the entire order was recorded. Later someone else called back to confirm my address, which was a much easier conversation. I called in the order a little before 5pm and while I waited I pondered the concept of cheap Italian for the masses and what my expectations should be considering that it was quite reasonable and I was cozy at home instead of venturing out for it. I received a call back by a very apologetic delivery driver, seems one of the drivers had not shown up and he was on his way. Some people might be annoyed by this but I appreciate the call and apology instead of leaving me wondering for another 20 minutes. I ordered mozzarella cheese, lobster ravioli and a cannoli and also received a complimentary salad and rolls- it was a lot of food that came out to $20.70 with tax. The rolls were delicious, flavorful and hearty. They were also big and I wish I had dined in so I would have more than two! The mozzarella cheese was okay but they were a very light shade and the cheese wasn't really melted. May have been an off night but I don't think I would bother ordering those again. What I will say is the marinara smelled delicious, I actually had a flashback to my Nana's kitchen when I was little. You could see and taste the spices, definitely superior to many of the places in town. The lobster ravioli was actually cheese ravioli with lobster which isn't what I was expecting. Most of the lobster was very good but several of the pieces were chewy. You may think that I would be disappointed with the lobster ravioli since the lobster wasn't inside the ravioli and several of the pieces were chewy but you would be wrong. That ravioli was delicious. Big, hand made pieces stuffed with ricotta and flavorful and creamy and downright yummy! The pink sauce was fantastic and filled with spices and as I was dunking my bread in it I bemoaned that there wasn't more! I haven't had a ravioli that good in at least a decade. At this point, considering the price point of this place and the size of their menu and that they hand make their pasta I can forgive that their version of lobster ravioli wasn't exactly what I was expecting, I bet this way helps to keep their price point down. So at this point I have eaten this meal, transported to my childhood in a New York kitchen where my maternal grandmother made authentic Italian food with aromas that filled the entire house. Eh, so the mozzarella cheese wasn't awesome but this place does fantastic bread, sauces and ravioli on the cheap, that's kind of a miracle. Now it's time for the cannoli. This place doesn't offer an original and chocolate like other places and good, I wouldn't order chocolate. Anyone can cover up a mistake with chocolate. I always order the original and there is only one place in town that does a cannoli to my standards. I opened the box and it was so fragrant! I dipped my finger in and tasted it... heavenly! That cannoli cream is extremely well done with the perfect texture and so creamy it was immediately melting on my tongue. The pastry was crunchier than it should be, though it didn't taste bad, and it wasn't filled as much as I would have liked it to be. That didn't stop me from attacking it in a very unladylike fashion though. The cream is so perfect I would order a tub of it if they sold it that way, and crunchy pastry or not, I will definitely order this again! Perhaps not the perfect meal, but when you look at this being a cheap Italian place with big portions, they have some real gems in there that exceeded expectations. Sauce and pasta are the foundation of Italian food, you have to do those right and Napoli's delivered on that! You do an authentic cannoli cream? You got a friend for life in me! This may not be where I go for a beautiful, perfect meal on a special occasion but it will definitely be where I go when I miss my Nana's cooking. read more

We went into the restaurant at an off-time, late afternoon. There was no greeter and we waited about 10 minutes to be seated. Big menu, large portions, good prices. Eggplant rollatini was not fully cooked. Spaghetti was mushy and marinara sauce bland. Meatballs were good and garlic rolls excellent. Tiramisu was mostly frozen but we actually liked it that way. We'll probably go back for garlic rolls and dessert. read more

Came at a in between lunch and dinner time was was served promptly and allowed to stay as long as I needed to relax and savor my meal. The spaghetti carbonara was not a typical presentation but still tasty with a pink creamy sauce and sliced ham with fresh fresh mushrooms and tomatoes. The side salad was nothing special but the Hot Garlic Rolls were wow! Soaked up the yummy sauce nicely. The unsweetened tea had an interesting spice to it but pleasant. Would return for try other pastas. Service was prompt but not necessarily warm. read more

This is the BEST pizza you can get! Nicely priced and FILLING! We go here all the time, my wife LOVES it and so do I. The staff was very friendly and I could tell they really cared about their business and their food. Love the decorations on the inside! Very homey and warm. read more

This is a great local Italian restaurant. So authentic it's hard to understand them when they speak but well worth the visit. It doesn't look like much from the outside but aren't we interested in the food? It's a great food experience. read more

We love their pizza's , spaghetti and meatballs and chicken Parmesan! Just deliciously tasty. I think the garlic rolls have gotten even better. We did try the lasagna as well but I prefer more meat and cheese. The lasagna was good but very very cheesy vs meaty. My only suggestion would be to add a little bit more meat. read more

This was our first time to order from this restaurant. We ordered our food to go. It was really delicious. The lasagna was really cheesy and cooked perfectly. The Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo has a lot of chicken in it. The sauces in both dishes had good flavors to them. The rolls are yummy. We had Tiramisu for dessert. It was really good. We would order there again. read more

Before I walked in I was singing "that's amore" and when we walked in guess what was playing on the house sound system... you guessed it, "that's amore"! What does that mean? Well, absolutely nothing....now on to the food I ordered the clam and marinara fettuccine and it was delicious. The bread was a little microwave-tough but still good. The salad, not so great. Had a taste of the eggplant and it was good. The service was great. I would eat at this place again, real hard. PS The walls are as bare as you can get and the joint is in a strip mall but what can you do. This is still TX afterall. All and all a good Italian restaurant and by good I mean better than Olive Garden. read more

Napoli's - Italian Near Me - Denton, Texas

Was really really looking forward to good Italian food for lunch and got nothing but a super greasy barely any meat in it lasagna with alfredo sauce and the calamari was greasy, overcooked, and NO flavor. DO NOT ORDER from this place. You will be disappointed. Sad I cant get my money back and now I'm still hungry for lunch. There was so much grease in the lasagna I could hardly eat it. The flavor of the lasagna wasn't bad but I couldnt get passed the grease at all. read more

I am updating my review because the food has gotten better. The pizza crust is perfect and the food seems fresh and it is quite good. Try the large pepperoni and sausage pizza, you will not be disappointed read more

This place is terrible. The service is super slow, we waited over an hour for our entrees. Our waitress was barely civil and acted irritated when we asked for refills of our tea glasses. My husband's chicken parm was burnt. Not going back. read more

I wasn't super disappointed in this place. I ordered it off DoorDash, and nothing looked like their pictures AT ALL! I don't know what they put in this food, but now I feel sick and have thrown up. Also my pizza had flour dust all over the bottom. read more

Napolis is where you go if you have forgotten what hospital food tastes like. This place is a disgrace. I had chicken Parmesan which was gray. No one in my party of three ate more than a few bites of this horrific slop which took 45 minutes to get to our table. Do yourself a favor and patronize any dumpster and you'll get a better meal. Absolutely disgusting. Oh, and they forgot our appetizer until we'll after our food arrived and it took ten minutes to get a glass of water. Bad service, bad food, bad everything. Probably the worst restaurant experience of my life. read more

This family owned restaurant is great for the price. The manicotti is a favorite for us. Is it gourmet? No. Is it well above Olive Garden abd Marcaronl Grill for flavor? That's a yes for me. Dine in is ok but not much atmosphere in the little shopping center. However, it's close to my daughter's school and we've had some really great times in those red booths. Looking for high class atmosphere? No worries. Take out and enjoy. read more

Love, love love their pizza!!! New York style. Daughter was not a fan of the Ziti, I had the Linguini and Clams and was disappointed in the fact I did not get the actual "clam" in the shell which I was hoping for, other than that, it tasted really good and there was a ton of food on my plate. Hubby had the Chicken Marsala, tasted good, just a bit too sweet for our tastes. We will definitely be back, if not for anything else, but for their terrific pizza! read more

A bug was in my salad and I told the owner and all she could say is sorry. So i tried to eat the ravioli and I was still disappointed. The food wasn't good to me. Not going back read more

Their food is pretty good. Their bread is amazing and I love their house Italian dressing. The prices are also great. However, their customer service is severely lacking. When at my parents, we often pick up from them as they are close and decent. On multiple occasions are orders have been wrong and then when try to fix the order, the woman we have dealt with is rude and condescending. I don't pay to get food from out to have absolutely awful customer service, especially when I have previously worked in the industry for years. Again the food is pretty good, but the constant lack of good customer service makes me want to pay a little bit more for even better food and much better service. read more

We ordered takeout which arrived on time and was delicious, until it had me in the bathroom the rest of the night into this morning violently ill. Please check the way you handle your food and sanitation to ensure no cross contamination is possible. We will not be ordering from you again. read more

Small quaint and at the evening romantic Italian food restaurant. Stopped in on a chance and found the proprietor and governor to be very friendly and most of all the food was exquisite. I don't use that word very often with food, the shrimp and scallops with a light cream sauce around $13. the shrimp scaloppini was as good as I've had and I've been to the old country. It's not up to par for a quick lunch in and mine was an afternoon lunch around 3 p.m. a place that you could sit, relax and conversation with a romantic bottle of wine. There is a small quaint bar with tables and would make a great starter for a night out. I will return the sample other cuisines on the menu. read more

RE-EDIT: The bread isn't the best but it is good to a degree. I look forward to toasting the leftovers, maybe adding more butter (country crock light). EDIT: I thawed the Tiramisu some. For parts I didn't overheat (Tiramisu in my experience should not be warm), it tastes better now. Napoli: I suggest you let your Tiramisu thaw before serving if it's safe to do so. Original review below: I ordered (for delivery via doordash) Lasagna, Mozzarella cheese sticks, and Tiramisu. I received those items and two pieces of appetizer bread in short order. Good! The best item among all of them is the bread, and it was initially underwhelming. The Mozzarella cheese sticks had seemingly zero seasoning on the breading and the breading itself just was not awesome. Lasagna I think over uses Mozzarella in the layers, doesn't have enough meat, and just wasn't awesome in flavor. This could be in part because I've already eaten too much today, but I still assert there are quality issues. The Tiramisu seems low on flavor to me versus others I've had, and I'm wanting to let it thaw--the top layer is pretty frozen. Will see how it is maybe if I don't eat it all first (impatience of pigging out). I might microwave it to speed the process, though that could be a bad idea. The plus side of all of it for Napoli: While I've stopped short of finishing based on a mix of fullness and dissatisfaction, I'm saving the leftovers in the fridge and prayed I'll eat the lasagna (before it goes bad). It's all edible, but none of it is great. read more

Great food!! Ordered through DD and delivered hot and fresh. With fantastic bread!! Plenty of food,had leftovers for lunch the next day. Stuffed mushrooms, Chicken parm and wife had siciliano with chicken. All was great!! Order yourself some food today! read more

I give a lot of bad reviews. But not this time! I really enjoyed the food here. My take-out order was prepared quickly, and the server was very nice about helping me get the food to my vehicle. A lot of the bad reviews have to do with the dine-in service, but I really enjoyed the take-out meal. Give this place a try! read more

Napoli special is wonderful has sausage chicken ham olives! Try the Black Forest cheesecake and key lime cheesecake also! Ordered the pasta sampler also with the alla panna sauce and it was heaven!!! The owner is so sweet she doesn't speak very good English so be patient with her she is super kind! Very relaxing environment here .. we enjoy so much Every time we visit read more

I have never had such badly prepared eggplant parmigiana. It was so mushy and the breadcrumb crust was almost raw tasting and mixed completely with the sauce. It was awful. We got delivery from Uber Eats and spent almost $60. Terrible. read more

Party of 9 of us dined in. The staff made us feel like family. Food was absolutely beyond our expectations. Clean and cozy. We are from California, Texas, and my husband from Europe who is very picky all loved the food. Can't wait to visit again. I strongly recommend this Authentic Italian cuisine. read more

From California was very tasty food. The chicken Alfredo was delicious. Sauce stayed creamy through my whole meal. Had a wonderful flavor. The stuffed mushrooms and sauce were right on. And the bread was hot tasty and fresh. I would recommend it to anyone who would have the pleasure of fine Italian cuisine. The staff was very attentive. I will visit Texas again and eat here once again. read more

Our first experience here was great, but our second one was awful. Our waitress, Hajrie was amazing and she was the only one waiting on so many tables so felt bad for her. We weren't satisfied with our food. The complimentary bread we got was burnt on the top. The salad with my entree was basically lettuce with two shreds of cut up tomatoes and some carrots. The dressing was put on the side and didn't look appetizing at all. The mozzarella cheese sticks were not good and the marina sauce smelled and tasted like salsa and was watered down. My second serving of sprite tasted like it was mixed with water, but they took care of that and replaced it. Over all, for the price point, not a bad place but we won't be going back. read more

Overall this is going to be a new regular restaurant for us. Denton is lacking in solid Italian restaurants and I was ecstatic to find this one. While the atmosphere could be improved, the food makes up for the lack in atmosphere. I had pasta in a white wine creme sauce, artichoke, and chicken. My husband had hamburger pizza, he NEVER eats leftovers, but here he took his home and he ate the leftovers the next morning. read more

Napoli's - Italian Near Me - Denton, Texas

After reading all of the great reviews for "best Pizza in Denton", I was ready for a New York style pie. We walked in on a sunday afternoon with my hunger in tow and grabbed a booth. the un-enthusiatic waitstaff took our drink order and I opened the menu to start creating my pizza. I was disappointed to see the lack of topping choices, but i figured that simple was better any way. We ordered up a Sausage pizza and I prepared to be dazzled. When the pizza arrived i noticed how disproportionately it had been assembled. The ingredients were "clumped" together and not evenly distributed. I know, a simple complaint, but I am a stickler for presentation. And then he first bite. It was bland. A soggy crust smothered in a watery and bland tomato sauce. I was completely let down. I hope their Italian food is better, but I would NOT recommend this place if you are craving pizza. $5 Hot n' Ready might be a better choice read more

We've never had a bad experience in the restaurant, but our last visit made me think we should warn those who do take out. We recently opted for take out, since the kids weren't behaving and we didn't want to subject anyone to their antics. The food at Napoli's is great, and I love anything with their white sauces. But on this trip, the plastic container tops became brittle when the hot pastas were put in. When we got home, one of the containers had cracked and we had small, hard, plastic shards in the one of the dishes. Couldn't eat it, which was a waste of $10. (And my poor husband was really looking forward to the dish.) I think, given the cost of the food, the packaging could be better. read more

We started out not even intending to go out for dinner tonight, but the stars must have been aligned properly. We had a take-out version of the menu in our menu drawer at home and decided that this was definitely a place to try. The clincher was the coupon for buy-one-get one-1/2-off on the back of my Kroger receipt. We went around 5:30 or so for an early dinner, since the kids were with us. When we walked in, there was Italian music playing on the sound system, which I thought was a nice touch. The decor was nice--dark cherry wood chairs, tables and booths. Nicely lit, and very comfortable. The staff was quite friendly and accommodating. The garlic bread knots arrived at our table promptly, even before perusing the menu. Nice considering we have two hungry kiddos! We ordered the calamari as an appetizer. This was very nicely done. Very lightly dusted and fried. Not greasy AND they left tentacle pieces on. Loved this (and so did everyone else). A NICE portion for $6.99. For dinner, I ordered the Linguine and Red Clam Sauce, hubby ordered a tortellini dish, my daughter ordered spaghetti & marinara sauce and we got cheese ravioli for the 3-year-old. Everything came out nice and hot, and tasted great. Portion sizes were definitely generous. I always said that the sign of a good Italian restaurant is the quality of the sauce. They definitely passed this test. Next time we go back (and YES there will be a next time...), I want to try the pizza. I have been told it rivals the best NY Style pizza, and I AM a fan of this style of pizza. The clincher? With appetizer, drinks, and 4 entrees, the tab BEFORE the coupon only came to $38.00. Can't beat that! PLEASE try this place. It's SO worth it. read more

I ordered a med pizza with sausage and peperoine,the person that took my order gave me the price and told me it would be 15 min,i waited 20 min and called to see if they were on there way and the lady that answered the phone came back after puting me on hold and said they didn't have the address which was there fault didn't ask , 2,then she said that they didn't deliver because I didn't get 15.00 worth which they didn't tell Mr thereafter,so I got kisses and asked to speak to the manager and said because of there screw up they owed me a free pizza,she said the manager wadnt there and would not be there till Friday,that is bullshit,you have to have somebody8n charge for crud like this when it happens,o hate this place,and app I say is don't eat there, they will Make you throw up,and make I sick read more

The food is always delicious and the service is good. We love to go here for family dinners and my office even has our office meetings and celebrations here. We love Napoli's!! read more

We found our new pizza place, we got a medium supreme and medium white pizza! They were huge, but still a great price. Wonderful customer service! Thank you so much read more

Ordered to go this evening because my wife was craving spaghetti and meat sauce. I ordered the spaghetti with meatballs. We also ordered the calamari The calamari was over cooked and most pieces seemed to be just batter. Both spaghettis were just blah. The meatballs tasted like frozen meatballs and the noodles seemed under cooked. We've ordered one other time before and the pizza was pretty good. read more

Excellent place to dine at! Service was quick. We had fresh bread was brought to us within minutes. The entrees were delightful and filling. Highly recommend, would come here again. read more

This an excellent place for italian. The pizza's are new york style, with great cheeze and sauce. I also tried the shrimp scaloppini with mussels and scallops, sauteed in a sherry wine, very good. The veal Marsala is also very good. Try the minestrone soup with chicken, you wont find any better in the world. We've been there many times, never a disapointment. This is not a noisy hangout type of place, you can enjoy your meal without the annoying buzz. They have great wines and its out of the way, very nice place. read more

I love Napolis! My husband and I usually order their pizza, which we think is better than anyone's around. We get the large Alfredo pizza with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and olives. Add an order of the stuffed mushrooms in alla panna (red & white) sauce and you're golden! We've also ordered the pasta, which is also delicious. I usually get the tortalini alla panna and my hubby gets the Chicken Dambianka his favorite. The wings are delicious too- nice and crispy. Napolis is our go to for pizza and pasta. The only thing that I don't like is the wait time for when you order delivery. There have been times where the food takes over an hour to get to your door. We ALWAYS order to go now. They usually say that it will be ready in 20 min so we go and pick it up and bring it back home. It's a lot faster and we are always happy. :) read more

Summary: Amazing food, good service, basic decor. Food: I ordered the medium Supreme Pizza...holy wow. Not only was it one of the most amazing pizza's I've ever had, but it was enough to feed my wife and I and our two girls. The bread that they give you before the meal is absolutely to die for as well. Absolutely incredible. Service: The waiters were nice and quick, they weren't rude by any means, but they weren't friendly or even pretending to be cheerful. I'm willing to overlook that though because they took care of everything we needed in a fast manner. Decor: Pretty basic, nothing special. Small place, but they dress it up nicely. read more

I had a tortellini the first time I went a few years ago and it was good. This was my second time and I had the Chicken Parmesan and it kinda sucked. The chicken Parmesan was just ok and the spaghetti ruined it for me. If you are an Italian restaurant your spaghetti should be one of the best parts of the dish. Our waitress wasn't mean or anything but had a VERY depressing attitude that made it awkward. When I said thank you for my refills and food, she just grunted in syllables that somewhat sounded like, "you're welcome". I'll try something different next time but it will definately be pickup or delivery so I don't deal with the cavewoman again read more
