Great food and outstanding service ! From the point we walked I we were greeted by the owner and her mother outstanding waiter and appetizer. The restaurant is quaint not to small and not overbearing. Truly a family owned and run bussiness ! read more

Delayed reviewing this place for a couple months but the experience was so incredibly horrific I feel compelled to offer a review still. My group of four came in for an after-dinner cocktail and didn't realize the bar was closing in fifteen minutes. Bartenders didn't inform us of this and served us our drinks. Service wasn't attentive, but there was also nobody else present. When asking for a second drink and some waters we were met with eye rolls and reluctance. We asked what time they closed and the very young female bartender responded "right now because I said so." She proceeded to have a horrible attitude and yelled at a friend of mine who insisted she didn't need to be so rude. I was appalled by the behavior and the owner seemed apathetic. Will never return. I've never had such a horrible experience and I hope the bartender is no longer working in the service industry. read more

Eh. We sat outside which was nice for people watching. Food was okay, but took over a hour to get basic meals (ordered 3 pasta with meat sauce). The bread that came out was not the best and than the second round of bread was a different kind... maybe they ran out? My child was out to eat with us (2 year old) so we had some special requests for him, the grilled salmon came out quick and our toddler enjoyed it. My mom asked for no pistachios on her beet salad due to an allergy and her salad came out with nuts on it. Same thing with the pasta for my son, I asked for it without anything on it ... no butter.. no oil... no sauce... but it came out with oil on it. Waiter tried to adjust after serving the plate and apologized but something is up with the kitchen. read more

Lovely outdoor spot. The penne bolognese was exactly perfect. The whole experience was really about Bryan, my elegant, attentive server. He brought my ice on the side for my wine without me asking. He checked in just at the right moments to see if I needed anything. Sometimes as a person eating alone outside we are forgotten. Bryan was equally attentive inside and outside of this lovely new restaurant. read more

The service was incredibly attentive, Alex, the food was Italian crisp, clean authentic Italian, and the ambience was modern. This is a restaurant where the 8K TV visuals , food, and staff makes me want to sing about how great this Valentine's Day turned out! GO! do NOT. Walk, feel as a local, enjoy the food, and create memories. read more

Naples Florida is a special place-the restaurants are special and Ottima fits right in!!! The food is amazing, ambiance excellent and staff supper attentive especially Alex. He made our visit perfect. The Melanase eggplant, crisp chicken piccata, cocktails and end it with the affragatto was memorable. The owner came by to assure we had a great meal. Ended with purchase of gift card for my sister to enjoy as well. read more

Ottimo is now part of my weekly selection! I love the little table outside, seeing tourists come and go. The management is amazing, the two women welcoming people are always kind and nice, adding a family vibe to the restaurant. The beet salad and the prosciutto melon are fantastic. What really make me come back all the time are the garlic prawns, almost gambas size, and delicious, the chef is really making them like in south of France/Italy. I love them. Finally, the waiters and waitresses are really fast and making us feel at home. Our table is always available and it makes me happy. Great place. read more

Everything went right from the bus people to the waiter to the owner who came to our table to know how is everything she was very pleasant. I love the food I order excellent antipasto the bolognese sauce which was made with veal pork beef just great Steak Florentine I highly recommend it read more

Food was amazing & so was the service was amazing! Angela was so attentive & kept checking on us

Birthday dinner at this spot recently. Excellent from start to finish. Great service and all 4 in our party loved their food! Had the swordfish, tenderloin, pasta calamarte and short rib pizza. Get there early as it fills up quickly for good reason. read more

We enjoyed a quiet lunch on their patio! Everyone was very friendly and willing to answer our questions! read more

Previously I had eaten their Caesar salad and thought it was the best in Naples so I went back to validate my original assessment. Undoubtedly my assessment was reconfirmed. I topped off my salad with grilled chicken and my taste was reconfirmed. Additionally I had the olive and cheese appetizer which was truly authentic. Next time I am going full throated for the pastas. Then I'll know!!! read more

Cozy and friendly ambiance, the food was superb. We had the whipped ricotta cheese and the octopus and smoked tuna for starters I can't say which was more delicious than the other. My granddaughter wanted mussels and although these were not in the menu, the chef obliged and made her what she wanted. Vito gave us the best service in spite of being a Saturday evening and the restaurant was very busy. I cannot rave about Ottimo enough. I will definitely come back. read more

This place just opened. Our server Sandra was good. I felt like they should have had a section for her to work. She was all over the restaurant helping different tables so the later it got she was not as attentive. Bad planning by restaurant. Not her fault. We shared a bunch of stuff the prawns, meatball linguine, crispy chicken with capers rice a spinach.Short rib pizza. My fav was the crispy chicken. The restaurant is beautifully done. Nice big bar as well. read more

What an experience! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth by the amazing owners, Edmon and Ledia, who make you feel like family. The food is simply outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and authentically Italian. Whether it's a perfectly cooked pasta dish or a mouthwatering steak, every bite is a delight. The server was knowledgeable and the rest of the staff were friendly. But the real highlight... The bar! The drinks are expertly crafted, absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere is stylish. It's the best looking bar I have ever seen in a restaurant. Hurry in, because this is certainly going to be the next "hot spot" in Naples. I will be returning for Happy Hour from this point forward, so I can have more of these amazing cocktails and enjoy the vibe. read more

The food at this place is amazing!! We got the whipped ricotta (soooo good) and the gnocchi al sugo for starters, and both were delicious!! Like wanting to lick the plates good! We tried the Caesar salad as well that was just ok. For our meals we got linguine with meatballs which was loved and the rigatoni alla vodka which was mouthwatering! Worst part of our experience was the staff. The hostess was rude when I said we did not have a reservation even though the restaurant was basically empty. Our waiter said about three words total to us the whole time as well. They also seated us about 1 foot away from the only other people eating at the restaurant which was odd. Overall highly recommend for the delicious food!! read more

We at here a few weeks ago. Service was good, as was the food. It's a bit upscale, but they were still super kind to my young children which I really appreciate. read more

We sat at the bar and split the margarita pizza. The pizza was ok, decent size and shareable. I like a margarita pizza with sliced tomatoes. The tomatoes on this pizza seemed to be canned diced tomatoes. The crust had a decent flavor. The restaurant itself is sort of stark and colorless, lights need to be turned down. Despite only 4 of us at the bar the service was less than stellar. It's probably one of the more casual restaurants on 5th avenue. Guess that's a plus. read more

We did the calamari as an appetizer, a couple of drinks and some dessert. Everything was good and our bartender was on point! read more

Excellent service. Emily was attentive and provided great service. Food was great. Red sauce was unique and delicious. Wine selection was fair. Inside of the restaurant was a little loud but manageable. read more

The female owner with short blonde hair was exceptionally rude. We had a reservation for a birthday dinner, sat 30 min late and proceeded to be berated by the owner because the hostess had comped our drinks for the wait. She said that is not her job to comp drinks and yelled at us as if we were at fault. She then stayed we should expect to now anticipate our meal to take a long time to come out and we could either stay or leave and go somewhere else. All because they over booked the restaurant and are now blaming their customers. We had a reservation for 8:30pm and didn't get our first bite of food until 10pm when every other person who arrived afterwards received their meal. She deliberately moved our food to the back of the line. We have come here multiple times and previously loved it and now we will never come back again. Highly recommend going elsewhere. read more

Not sure why this place has 2 1/2 stars the pizza was delicious! The service was great good atmosphere! Trip advisory even gives it four stars. read more

Sandra was amazing! She was so attentive and accommodated all of our requests. We sat outside and I loved how the doors going into the restaurant were all open, so you get an indoor outdoor feel. We ordered the whipped ricotta, crispy gnocchi, chicken Marsala, and the salmon with risotto and asparagus. Everything was delicious! read more

My wife and I are dinner here on Valentine's Day. The restaurant was not even open a month at this point. The service was impeccable ! The staff were attentive and friendly. They have a wine sommelier as well. I had asked about a wine I never tried and he opened a bottle just so I can try it. I have never come across that kind of service. The appetizer, main dish, and desert was top notch. There was a great vibe throughout the night. I was impressed from the beginning all the way to the end. New restaurants typically encounter hiccups in the beginning. Ottimos is like a well oiled machine that runs flawlessly. I Highly recommend this place. read more

Always a great experience. Edmonton and Lydia know how to deliver a top notch experience. Vito was our server. He had a hand on the presentation too. Look for his signature cappuccino. read more

Beautiful new place on 5th we stumbled upon. We got attracted to the design of it, it looks very chic and a beautiful woodwork on the bar area. They were super busy but were able to accommodate us. Fantastic, creative food! Everything we tried was top notch: calamari (not your typical prep, super creative), Cesar salad, sword fish (properly done, not dried out like most places) and mushroom truffle risotto. Service was super attentive, so we asked for our server's name for the next time. So ask for Efren! As a side note, this place is allergy friendly, they were able to accommodate my dairy allergy. Will be back soon! read more

We waited 2.5 hours for food. Waiter never came back to see if we needed more drinks. Food was served warm or cold. All I ordered was the broccolini and it was cold. I sent it back. If I were you don't come here. I talked with the owner twice. It made no difference. HORRIBLE !!! STAY AWAY!! It's not worth your time or money. RUN RUN RUN There are better places here to get good food and service !! Do not come here!!!!!! read more

Very average food and service. It's loud and the tables are too close together. The prices are high and the value fairly low. Plastic cups for soda? Tacky. Happy to pay 5th avenue prices, but this place won't make it if they don't improve the quality, temperature of food and dramatically lift their friendliness and overall service. read more

Great new addition to 5th Ave. With delicious menu items and excellent service by Ehfrem, we knew him from Ritz Gumbo Limbo...and happy to have found him here for our future meals!!

The dinner at Ottimo was a wonderful experience. Alexander our waiter guided us through the menu helping us make perfect choices. His service and attention to detail was impeccable. Do not pass on the whipped ricotta or nonas meatball appetizers. read more

Love this new addition to Fifth avenue. Six of us visited last night and enjoyed a very well prepared dinner along with a meatball app (excellent). The swordfish caponata and pizza were also excellent and prepared perfectly. The service was great and the owner was very gracious when visiting our table. Love the bar as well. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Food was tasty but extremely overpriced. As a matter of fact once the bill was paid I asked for a receipt and never got it. Did the math and seemed like they added more to the bill than we even got. Drinks were not good at all and extremely overpriced for what it is. Do not really recommend. read more

Extremely overpriced cocktails. Ordered 4 Fernet neat and was charged $100 for a 1.5 ounce pour. The whole bottle costs $38. Won't be back.
