This restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere and the waiters are generally very very nice. However, the food was just not up to par with the prices. We ordered a pizza crust that wasn't actually a pizza crust, it was basically a plain pizza (anyone can just google what the dish pizza crust is suppose to be), a scampi risotto that tasted like the proportions of the ingredients involved were x50 in ratio and a blue crab pappardelle. My pappardelle was so bad I don't even know how to explain it. Imagine, a dish so swamped in sauce that a pasta dish, that had once probably had the garnishes and original flavors of a blue crab pappardelle, tasted like 5 sticks of butter. I have had this dish at various locations throughout Sydney's dining scene--from low end to high end-- and never have I tasted such a poor version of the dish. If this type of flavoring is your style, however, then this place is very very compatible for you!

Really yummy pizza!!…read more My cousins discovered this place and raved about the pizza, so we ordered it on a Friday night. We called and ordered three pizza and they said it would be 30 minutes. We drove there from the city and got there in like 15 minutes. Parking is as bit of a challenge, but luckily someone was pulling out and we got a spot. This place was packed! The kitchen was tiny, four chefs crowded around the stove making pizzas. We had to wait about 15 minutes and walked around. There were a few other restaurants, but they were all fairly empty. Got the pizza and it smelled so good. Couldn't wait to eat it. We ordered the fratelli's - with mushroom, rocket and proscuitto, the Napolenta - which had olives and sardines and the Gamberoni, which had prawns, garlic and lemon. The Fratelli was delicious and they didn't skimp on the proscuitto. The Napolenta was nice but not a fan of sardines. The Gameroni was yummy and the prawns were delicious! Great place for pizza, probably the best I've tried in Sydney so far..

Via Napoli is pretty authentic: you'll hear enthusiastic Italian in every direction, fresh quality…read moreingredients are used, a massive stone oven cooks food, and the menu has some very attractive offerings with the most important being of course, the pizza. I came with a group of 6 and we naturally had to order the metre long pizza ($62) al metro, meaning it could be split into 3 different types of pizza out of their 15+ choices so there's something for everyone. Before we did that we ordered some starters; the salt + pepper calamari with eggplant (this was awesome,) buffalo mozzarella salad, and sausage on toast (the name escapes me.) The entreés were good, though portions on the small side...but good start. Onto the pizza...I'm not sure what I expected, but I think I ate a bit of the hype machine because the pizza was just OK for me. The crust was crispy, dough was fluffy, but the pizza itself was a little too flimsy...flimsy enough you had to eat with two hands and the toppings fell off quite easily, so I found it more annoying than enjoyable to eat. I need to come here again to solidify my opinion, but for the time being, if you live near the CBD I wouldn't make the trek out here as there are other places to go. Order a small pizza on the side if you have 6 people, as the metre long will be gone in seconds and you may still be hungry.

A giant dining space pumping out tasty wood fired pizza and dinners!…read more The staff are attentive enough and are quick in bringing out your meals once you have decided which items to try. A friend and I came here on a Thursday night and the place was fairly empty - just the usual families celebrating kid week birthdays and friend catching up. We tried the aranchini balls, a pizza and shared a dessert. The pizza was great - freshly made, fresh tasting ingredients and a great balance of flavours! The aranchini balls were a bit on the bland side - not crisp or full of flavour. We tried the dessert special which was a flop - a bit bland and underwhelming, the highlight was the grilled pineapple YUM! The bill wasn't too bad for a small shared dinner - approx $30 per person with a tea to drink rather than an alcoholic beverage.

Doctor says 'Well first, you need to start eating more sensibly' This place is really incredibly Italian even though it was a hardware place until about three months ago. It is now a massive restaurant and "Spuntino Bar".....nope, me either, no idea. The food is really fantastic, Lindfield, Gordon and Turramurra have each kicked off a few new places in the last few months which is a great sign. This is right up there. Shared plates and great authentic pizzas. The service was great if you got the right woman, the bloke on the floor was way too Italian and prone to wandering away. When I asked him for the bill he nodded at me and went happily dawdling outside? The lady was on top of things and was cheerful quick and helpful. We had prawns, rolled veal, meatballs, calamari, and a proscuitto salad (all of course described in Italian so D1 can show off) and a bunch of pizzas. Nine of us all well fed and happy. Its not cheap but its good value, the wine list is short and mainly Italian. The whole place is comfy and cool in a New York bar way. This just in ... a spuntino bar is a bit like a tapas bar only Italian. There you go!

He's genuinely Italian (not like those awful fake Italians that seem to be everywhere you look these days) and is chronically happy in the most relaxed and infectious way. And hells, why wouldn't he be when he's blessed with the God-given talent to create the most awe-inspiringly, pants-wettingly delicious pizzas in Sydney? You may guess from that little paean that this is my go-to 'za joint and you'd guess right. None of this pan base crap. No bike wheel-thin, brittle dough with an artisan scraping of tomato sauce and three pieces of gourmet pepperoni. These bad boys are dripping with love and quality toppings, stacked high with colour and juice and topped with tasty cheese and chilli flakes and those ace little Italian anchovies I can't get enough of. My fave is The Special with pretty much everything and the kitchen sink on it. But NO PINEAPPLE. God help you if you order pineapple on a pizza. What are we, Polynesian cavemen? It's cheap, too. 2 families feeds three of us with lunch left over the next day. Boom. All hail Antos, king of pizza parlours!

As I said at the beginning, it could be my tastes just didn't appreciate this kind of food.
