Kind of a weird location now in the basement of some old building on main street - buttt what a home run. Service was friendly and wonderful. We got a sinplease garden salad and med pizza. Both came fast and tasted great. Try the homemade dressing. If in Lufkin, this is the go to place read more

Number one best pizza in town. Great pastas as well. The garlic knots are amazing. I have always been too full to try a desert. I can only imagine what they taste like. My son and I always split a large pizza we have never been able to finish a pizza yet. They are huge. The mozzarella sticks are one of the best appetizers. Service is out of this world good. And the setting is very nice. It's in the basement and very clean. They have wines beers soda and tea. My family and I love this place. read more

Found this place while driving through. Downtown Lufkin in an old historical building in the basement. I expected to see the rat pack. :) Great place for a date and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Salad was fresh, the bread and butter were great and if you can make a great meatball you can bet everything else will be good. We saw a lot of guest order pizza. We would go back next time we drive through. Great service and attentive. The decor, case in the hall and the bathroom under the stairs just felt right for the historical feel. Take the stairs or elevator. There is a lot of construction downtown right now but don't let that deter you. Park by the school district admin building and walk across. It is close by another historical building that used to be the radio station. read more

Food is always good, sometimes the wrong temperature, but not terrible. Drinks are fabulous-the wine is amazing! Service is usually on point unless it's just an off night and the place is packed. I like that this restaurant is in the basement of an old building downtown-it's a unique dining experience! read more

We had a seniors meeting of about 25 people. The food was excellent and the service was great. We spent the spaghetti combo meal and we're taking food home. I highly recommend this place for excellent food and a great atmosphere. read more

Horrible service, Horrible food. Ambiance was ok. We arrived on a Saturday night and the place was empty. We ordered drinks, one person ordered wine and it took forever (like 15/20 minutes) to get it. Their were 5 of us. 3 people ordered salads, they brought out the appetizer and within 3 minutes of that, they started bringing out the food, one plate at a time. After they brought all the main dishes out, they brought the salads out (one at a time). Mine was cold, one was the wrong food altogether. The dinner that was wrong, we had to tell them to take it off the check because everyone else was done eating (we didn't see our waiter until we were ready to leave). We had 2 tickets, we gave them our cards and they charged the wrong card to the wrong ticket. We told them and asked them to fix it. They took the tickets to fix them and proceeded to charge them wrong again. We decided to leave it and fix it between ourselves. Will we go back? Absolutely not. One star rating only because we have to give them something. read more

Happened to be in the area of Lufkin and my Partner and I were looking for pizza to go and we saw this Italian restaurant and said why not. We were not expecting the Spinach Chicken Alfredo to be our next favorite pizza! For the time were there we were Provided with the best possible service. Definitely going back when I'm in the area read more

First of all the rolls and marinara sauce was righteous!!! Second of all our waiter Diallo was the nicest dude ever! he had a great personality and just over all a great dude, next time you go ask for him he is amazing! The experience just made the food taste 2x better! (don't get me wrong the food was already heavenly) And the over all atmosphere was so pleasant and calm! read more

We got in close to close. They said it's was no problem. The bread was so good. Cocktails came out quick as did the main dish. I will definitely go back when I'm in town again. read more

Our first visit to the new Napoli's in Lufkin (site of former Manhattan Fine Dining). The restaurant is located in the Perry Building in downtown Lufkin. Entrance on the side of the building, take the elevator to the basement. Classy woodwork and furnishings harken back to the days of the former restaurant and the new owner made the wise choice to retain the look and feel of an old Italian restaurant. The atmosphere makes it a nice place for dinner. Food on the menu is the same as their sister restaurant in Nacogdoches. We have eaten there and always enjoyed the food so we knew that we would not be disappointed. Our waitress (Eden) greeted us at our table in the bar area. We started out with the Caprese Salad appetizer and it was terrific. The tasty combination of fresh thick slices of tomato and mozzarella cheese complimented by the Italian dressing, fresh basil and olives was a nice start to the meal. I ordered the Chicken Cacciatore and my wife ordered homemade cheese raviolis. The Cacciatore entrée was two chicken breasts topped with sautéed green peppers, onions and mushrooms in tomato sauce, served over thin spaghetti. Four large ravioli's stuffed with ricotta cheese, topped with mozzarella cheese and baked in a casserole made up the Cheese Ravioli entree. We enjoyed both. Fresh rolls rounded out the meal. Both Eden and the manager checked to ensure that we were enjoying out meals and their new restaurant. We did enjoy it very much and look forward to many more super meals. read more

Napoli's - Italian Near Me - Lufkin, Texas

The place is very nice looking but lacks a lot. Sweet tea is colored water The Napoli's combo..best part is the cheese. The food looks like Great Value packaged food and everything is VERY bland. The bread is...bread no flavor, even when getting olive oil it was bland. Had to add cheese, red pepper, salt to make it taste decent. I hate to talk bad but please improve the seasoning on the food and sweetness of the tea. read more

fantastic service ,food and atmosphere.friendly staff . take all my out of town friends and. family there.

When a place is not good, I say so. This place is awesome. Every time we drive through Lufkin from Houston we come up with an excuse to hop off the interstate. It's in a cool building in a cool downtown area. It all works to make a great dining experience. About the food? We've been there five times and we've had five great meals. read more

The food was subpar. Could have went to Olive Garden at got better..services was great and ambiance was nice but food sucked

Hands down the most delicious meal we've had in a long time! Trying a new restaurant is always tricky but Napoli's was nothing short of a miracle. Customer service was wonderful. Quinten is a class act server and the food was tasty and a great price for the quality and quantity. We will most definitely be back! read more

We ordered a pizza and the garlic rolls. The garlic rolls were ok. However, the pizza was bland. There was very little sauce on the pizza, but what made it worse was the toppings were very sparse. This was a 3 topping pizza, and we actually had to look for the beef. As far as the jalapeno peppers, they were pretty much nonexistent. When you are paying $2.00 extra for every topping, you should be able to see the toppings. This order was over $30.00, and it was $30.00 wasted. I will not be returning to this establishment anytime in the near future. read more

A fitting replacement for Manhattan Fine Dining. Pizza was hot and tasty. Waiter was attentive. Somewhat crowded on a Friday night. read more

Other than the parking issues around a downtown area currently going through street closures, the pizza was exceptional. The ambiance is cozy, they are located on the basement level but elevators are available. read more
