    Espresso Martini with a single espresso back
    Frank B.

    I have noticed a great improvement since my last review. I was SO fortunate to sit at the bar where Sarah was tending bar! Her ALWAYS positive attitude and infectious smile draws me to her bar EVERY TIME I come here. Tonight, I started with the chop salad. It is smaller than it use to be, and in MY opinion, there was too much dressing which overpowers the fresh ingredients in the salad. My main course was the parmesan encrusted 7oz filet with their crispy potatoes. I requested medium rare but it came out medium to medium well. I didn't make a big thing of it at the time, but did give constructive opinion to Amanda strictly for training purposes. My Dessert here was my high point as Sarah makes the BEST Espresso Martini in town. It already has a shot of FRESH espresso but I added an additional single espresso because I can never have enough espresso If the food matched my 5 star service, I think my entire experience would have been 5 stars.... still better than my last 3 star experience

    Terrific dinner at Pazzo! We love the special summer dinner deal: 2 courses and a glass of wine for 35$. We go every year! And you can get tiramisu and cannoli for 5$. We had mussels, snapper, seared salmon and tiramisu. I also ordered my absolutely favorite desert from the main menu - Lazanetta.

    Very good, the food, the drink and the service all good! Worth a try! Come here every year

    Tagliotini.
    Dawn D.

    Great little Italian spot on 5th Ave. got to eat outside. The bread with ricotta and truffles was amazing ( and $6!). We got Tagliotini Rigatoni. Both were excellent. The tagliotkni had an unexpected sweet sauce and sausage. The rigatoni had beef and was yummy. Nice wine list too. Too stuffed for dessert but I'm sure it's great.

    Came here with a group of 8 for a birthday. Our server went above and beyond to make the evening special; she was attentive, kind and truly thoughtful. A few of the standouts were the caprese salad - the cheese has an incredible melt in your mouth texture, and the butternut squash ravioli - the sweetness of the squash with the tanginess of the sauce created a perfectly balanced tasty dish. Highly recommend for a special night out!

    Joey lollipops margarita
    Brooke P.

    An overall enjoyable evening, with a few tweaks it would be a five star review. We were seated promptly, and John our server took our drink order. I enjoyed my "Joey lollipops" spicy margarita. We had some great garlic bread that had the consistency of focaccia and was super yummy. Entrees were a little more uneven. I enjoyed the veal parm special and shared it with others (it was sizeable!) and included a side of spaghetti. Hubby had the crab spacatelli and it was a little rich and too sweet to his liking. My Aunt tried a new entree server recommended (torodelli?) and it was so spicy she had to send it back. It was stuffed tortellini with a red sauce, sausage and a large meatball in middle. The meatball and sausage weren't the culprits, it was the red sauce and seemed to have gotten confused with another dish, as the menu description did not call out any spiciness. I love spicy and tried it and couldn't tolerate it either - reminded me of that red pepper sauce and burned my mouth. Unfortunately, it took quite awhile for her to get a replacement dish with a different sauce. Enjoyed our favorite Cabernet (Faust) and wine list had lots of great options at various price points. Our first time in Naples and we would return. The dining room was packed and nice vibe, however, EXTREMELY loud and hard to carry on a conversation.

    Expresso martini for desert

    Off season specials 35 bucks come with glass of wine and appetizers Server Rick was great easy to talk too and joke with Knows the menu We had the get 2 for 35 meals with free glass of Chianti or Pinot Grigio Joey haha martini was great the Italian old fashion was better than some other restaurants Salmon was pant seared and delish For the meat lovers the steak was perfectly cooked And very tender

    We sat at 8:15 p.m. and wanted to order appetizers, but server said that we HAD to order appetizers and main course together. We ordered 4 appetizers: 2 types of bread, burrata, and calamari. 10 minutes later the main course arrived. We were not done with our appetizers. That was issue #1. Issue #2: my husband ordered his steak medium rare, and it came as rare. He had to send it back twice. Manager came to the table and was very nice and apologetic. She offered to give us free dessert, but we refused it. We were not complaining because we wanted something free, we just wanted our meal to be as we requested. I want to emphasize how nice the manager was, she really tried to make things right. I also want to make it clear that we were very polite and calm when we complained. Issue #3 was one of my drinks. I ordered a lemon drop with sugar on the rim, and as you can see on the picture there was no sugar, and the drink itself was terrible. I did not complain because we didn't want to have to talk to the nice manager again, but the whole drink stayed on the table when we left. Server never asked what happened. That was another issue... Our server didn't care to really take care of us. From the beginning she knew that we weren't pleased that we had to order everything at once, but didn't care. Let me make it very clear that I understand that servers want to flip tables as quickly as possible, but when we sat down at 8:15 p.m. the restaurant was only half full, and they close at 10 p.m. So it's not like she needed to flip our table quickly because there would be no other table once we got up, we only had about 2 hours to eat and leave since they close at 10. We were done around 9:45 p.m. and by then there was only a few tables left. So, no... we didn't want to stay for a long period of time, we just wanted to enjoy our appetizers without feeling rushed. Manager did explain that they were supposed to wait 10 minutes between appetizers and main course, but 10 minutes is not enough especially if the table orders 4 appetizers. I would totally understand them making us ordering everything IF we were seated at 5, 6, or 7 p.m., but after 8p.m there's no need to rush customers anymore. At the end, we heard our server and another young female server talking bad about another table. I'm giving 2 starts because despite my pasta being very basic, my husband's steak being sent back twice, our friends said that their food was good. One of their plates was a Branzino and my friend said it was delicious.

    Great menu.
    Mike S.

    The food was as good and delectable as we have experienced in the past. The service on this occasion, however, was very slow. Our waiter was super friendly, but he was in the weeds the entire night and seemed to have way too many tables. Our dining experience lasted nearly 2 hours, with about 30 minutes between each course.

Tough place to locate because there is very little signage. We were able to find it after driving around a bit. We found a nice parking spot in the rear of the hotel that it sits beside. Upon entering the area where the music stage is set up, we noticed a decent crowd with everyone sitting and enjoying the music. The bar is inside where everyone goes to get a drink. The service was good...a couple of bartenders ready to help, if needed. The crowd was mainly older adults....ages 40-65 would be my guess. The music was good....all the hits from the Eagles to Nirvana to James Taylor. As a first timer, it was kind of confusing where to order food. However, I did not notice food being served. I did notice a small restaurant set up in a small seperate building but there was no one eating in there. I guess the bartenders take the order and then deliver the food. Would I go back?

After we finished our meals, the staff was very quick in clearing the tables. The tables to watch the band were outside and is first come first serve. We came early since we were a large group. It's not a big space so most seats have great views of the band. The band was very good; they had a great saxophone player and the singer got the crowd engaged in some of the songs. Overall a very fun night and will definitely be back.

    I literally cannot say enough good things about our experience at Hogfish Harry's!…read more For my first visit, my husband and I came for lunch one day while vacationing in Naples about two weeks ago. Our server was also the bartender (Jordan) who was extremely welcoming and super friendly. We told her it was our first time there and she gave us the rundown about the menu and some of the local favorites. We got a coconut shrimp appetizer which was delicious and my blackened grouper Caesar salad was beyond divine. I'm so glad I went with that fish option over the mahi. The grouper was extremely fresh, and the portion size was huge! My husband ordered the mahi-mahi Neuben (I.e. Ruben) which he said was surprisingly good! We also tried a few of the signature cocktails, which to my surprise came in tiki glasses! I absolutely love when a drink comes in fun glassware! Our experience at lunch was so great that we raved about it to our family. Which resulted in us coming back the very next day, but for dinner. We had 24 people in our party! I don't think that we would've been able to do this during peak season so if you're looking to bring a large group, definitely go off - season! Our server for the 24 person dinner with Sam and she was also beyond wonderful! She was our only server and somehow managed to wrangle a table full of chatty adults and six children! Kudos to her! Everything we ordered came out amazing! I absolutely loved the Maine Lobster Salad! Came with a huge portion of lobster, which, for the price was really great! The restaurant has an absolutely wonderful ambience and we were so impressed with the experience, the staff and the food considering this was our first time visiting. They're a bit tucked away inside of a private resort, but since they're open till the public, they do have appropriate signage for the location and it's pretty easy to find. Overall, both dining experiences were absolutely wonderful and I beyond recommend visiting Hogfish Harry's if you're ever in the Naples area. 10/10 recommend!
