I came back to this place, and it did not disappoint. I got a bowl again, but this time, I tried the beef, which was delicious. I also tried the fire roasted tomato sauce on top. It had a sweet and spicy flavor that went very well with the beef. Just like the previous time, the staff was very friendly and went on top of everything.

Nice Turkish restaurant in Naples area. There is indoor seating, with modern decor with nice Mediterranean touches and great outdoor seating which we opted for. We started our meal with Babaganoush, very fresh and flavorful, loved their pita bread! We continued our lunch with their Traditional Doner Kebab with beef and fries, very nice, pretty light, I liked their Tzatziki sauce, fresh, great to dip in. Somebody else in our party enjoyed their Sumit sandwich is vegetarian. For drinks I got their sour cherry juice (amazing) and my husband couldn't resist their Schweppes bitter lemon soda, I drink we usually get in Europe, hard to find in US. We had a nice lunch, great service, clean restrooms, enjoyable atmosphere. I'd go back to Simit in a heart beat while in the area, their menu is nice, with great options, decent prices and the food is delicious!

Mediterranean Salad without feta
Jeniece S.

Dined here this evening with my partner and his mother. With a table of two meat eaters and one vegan, we could not have been more pleased with food, the service or the ambiance. Incredible, authentic food, in a usually overly saturated metropolitan area. Emil, thank you for guiding us in the right directions on both food and wine, we appreciate you! A must visit!

Mediterranean calamari
Karen L.

Finally, a great casual Mediterranean restaurant in Naples! The menu is super interesting and our group of 4 had fun trying and sharing as many things on the menu as we could. We started with the Cheese Pide which is a Turkish bread that is puffy and light. We added the Armenian pastirma, not even knowing what it was, just for fun. It was a cured meat that added a lot of flavor to the dish. Another standout dish was the mixed grill. I only tried the chicken but it was tender and full of flavor from the herbs and spices it was coated with. The calamari with squid ink rice and herb salsa was also very delicious and totally different than traditional calamari. The flavor combination with the rice and salsa definitely worked. We really wanted to try the desserts but were just too full. Will definitely return and try more items on the menu!

I had great expectations as I enjoy Greek food. I ordered to take out a Greek salad ($14.95 + 15% tip (does not let you proceed with payment unless you pay a tip). To my surprise the salad was not only small, but looked weird... with a single stem of the romaine. The salad was summerge (assuming it was dressing) but no, it was waterly. I give a one just because I want to be nice. But this place sucks from the presentation to the price.

The pide.  Amazing. And the zucchini pancake!   (For all you white people!)

They just keep killing it! The food here is outstanding. And an outstanding wine selection as well. Ask them to pair a wine with the food!!!

Wonderful mediterranean restaurant. Everything was delicious the appetizers including beat root hummus, tzatziki, and babaganoush and the grouper entree was out of this world. Service was outstanding; friendly and very attentive. Highly recommend.

Look at the photos. For those that want to read I'll make it brief since I'm so disappointed about how bad this was. Falafel plate missing falafels. No rice. Cheese Pide is an abomination. Dry and no idea how you call it pide. Mixed grill over charged for salad that's meant to be a side. Meat was dry but ok. Bread is ok and dips were probably the best thing. That's it. Look at the photos. Wish I could write a glowing review because I was excited but unfortunately had this experience.

Chicken kobob with all the fixings
Annie S.

Food here definitely has that fresh flavor. It's a quaint small place with likely 10 table settings but food was flavorful. We had delicious baked hummus , chicken kobob , mixed grill which included chicken, & beef .

Create your own bowl with falafel, rice, hummus, and tomatoes
Dia D.

We ordered a huge amount of food and it was a mixed bag. The 3 dip trio was almost as good as I've had in other places, the babaganoush and the beet hummus were good. The two lamb/beef Döner lacked flavor and were only ok. The two create your own bowls were both good though the falafel was a bit dry. The simit filled with Nutella was good, but anything with Nutella is good. We got carryout and online ordering was easy.

Salmon

Was visiting Naples for the weekend and decided to try something new in town with my family. Immediately loved how charming it was inside and outside, including a live violinist the night we went. We love Mediterranean food so we went all out. For apps we tried the Ajvar dip and the baked hummus (FAVE) and both were suuuper delicious. We could've easily kept ordering more for the table because both were so tasty. For entrees we ordered the salmon (10/10 super tender and really nice citrusy flavor), the mixed grill (7/10 decent portion for price, flavors were good, a little dry), braised lamb (8/10 tender and full of flavor), and the tenderloin kebab (8/10 needed more flavor but the potatoes were out of this world). For dessert we tried the kunefe which is one of my faves, but it was a little dry and missing something. Overall the service was fantastic, loved the live music, and the food was very tasty. We will definitely come back to try out other items!

Pita and salad
Karen J.

We really enjoyed our lunch. We had the simit sandwich and the pita with lamb and beef and a side salad. Both were delicious.

The food was excellent! Service and ambience was good as well. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Great food, we were on our way back from the keys and this was halfway back on our way to Tampa, and wanted to eat Mediterranean food and this came up on yelp. A good option, wish they were closer to us. Great service, fresh tasty food.

Dip trio: beet root, baba ganoush, hummus original

Falaffel is very good. If you enjoy falafel give them a try. It tasted fresh, and was not greasy.

Best, freshest "quick lunch" spot in town. Definitely a top recommendation! The beef/lamb mix bowl with avocado is a favorite of mine!

We decided to visit this place mid week and once we arrived we did not find a soul sitting…read moreanywhere. Somewhat suspicious. We checked and they were open. So, we changed our plans and decided to do a take out order instead. We selected the Mixed Grill Platter which would allow us to try a variety of the meats. Once we got home, we opened the the packaging and started sampling. Everything tasted ok. But I must say, for the price we paid, I was looking for more. More flavor, more tender meats, more quantity. Just more. Again, it wasn't bad, but not the best. And the pricing was quite high.

I can't believe that I haven't reviewed Vourla Mediterranean restaurant before. My husband and I…read morehave been visiting Vourla for years, and we have always loved every single dish that we have ordered. Their food is consistently delicious, plentiful, very fresh and always well prepared. We always start with their appetizer trio, I love their hummus and their eggplant in tomato sauce as well as one that has walnuts in a creamy sauce. My husband usually orders the lamb shish kebab which comes with a delicious rice and a side salad. I really enjoy the grilled vegetables and the lentil soup. The service here is always on point, the servers are kind and attentive. They have a very nice vibe inside the restaurant and they also have an outdoor terrace for when the weather is cooler. We will certainly be back when we visit Naples again.

Came for a 5pm reservation on a warm Saturday after doing an afternoon boat cruise out of Tin City…read more Vergina's was pretty busy, but we were seated promptly on the front patio. Pleasant ambiance although the tables are pretty tight. Our server came and I inquired about the happy hour deal which was advertised as going until 5pm, and was told you must be seated by 4:45pm. Disappointing. She then made a big production of running through the specials by loudly clicking her fingernails on an iPad all without mentioning prices, and now after seeing some other reviews, they are overpriced and a money grab. No attempt at any hint of friendliness or even personality. Anyways we put in our order. We got our drinks fairly quickly and our app, the charred octopus dish, which was great. It had fingerling potato's, artichoke, olives, red sauce. Very nice. Some bread then came out and it was also nice. It took awhile for our entrees to come out. I had Nona's spaghetti and it was delish. The lady had a gnocchi with white truffle sauce and it was very tasty although only luke warm at best. We were full so we didn't have dessert. Our waitress never came around to check on us after taking our order. It took forever to flag her down to get our check. So I'd give Vergina props for the tasty food and nice ambiance. Demerits for indifferent and inattentive service, serving entrees that aren't hot, pushing expensive specials without giving prices and unclear happy hour policy.

Poor service, waitress M.I.A multiple times and demanding high $100+ tips…read more I do not recommend it. If you are an outsider this place can easily ruin your Naples experience
