Parmesan Pete's is an absolute hidden gem in Naples. I ordered the veal chop Parmesan special and…read moreit was ginormous and truly to die for. The veal was paper-thin, incredibly tender, and still on the bone. It wasn't overly breaded at all, and it came with a side of pasta that made the portion even more impressive. The amount of cheese on top was perfect--just enough to enhance the dish without overpowering the veal itself. Beyond the food, the restaurant feels genuinely Italian--like being transported straight back to Florence. It's small, intimate, and cozy, with both indoor and outdoor seating options that make the experience even more special. Service here has and never will be a disappointment, you always feel like family! On a previous visit, I tried the lobster mac and cheese, and it was equally delightful and incredibly flavorful. I almost hesitate to recommend it because I don't want booking to get harder, but if you're ever visiting Naples, this is an absolute must-go. An unforgettable experience all around.

The dishes are mediocre at best fried Calamari is excellent. I had the veal Sorentino. It was OK nothing special. The eggplant was undercooked ,The prosciutto tasted like old ham. The veal was tender, but had no color on it. I asked can I get pasta no vegetable they told me no so probably won't return as they cannot accommodate very simple substitutions. I've been in a business for 30+ years so I do understand about substitutions, but also customers are limited to what they can eat as well and sometimes I would like to have a change obviously if you have pasta and I didn't want a vegetable what's the big deal just to swap it out. One of our guest ask for plain grilled shrimp on a bed of steamed spinach. The answer was no. Waiter just said whatever is on the menu. I would try to accommodate your customers a little bit better if you want some business and better reviews ambience was fair. Also they have had the same specials every time.

Parking is a bit challenging but there is a valet offered.

Finally had a guy server show up and when I inquired about hh he gladly told us we just missed it. I said the obvious; that we've been sitting there for 20 minutes, my friend was there 5 minutes before me. He just ignored my comment and didn't honor hh prices. If you can't get a server to a table within 15 minutes of seating guests, that's a problem. We should've been granted hh prices. That's really pretty shady Bar a Mercato.

They are as good here as anywhere I have had them. I also stay in the same category and enjoy their mussels. I enjoy having a little bit of spice added for that extra kick.

They come out warm, soft, and drenched in buttery garlic goodness with just the right amount of seasoning. Every bite is fluffy on the inside, slightly crisp on the outside, and I could honestly eat a whole basket by myself and still want more. They're not just a side, they're an experience. And then there's the pizza. Perfectly cooked crust with that ideal balance of crunch and chew, rich sauce that tastes fresh and slightly sweet, and cheese that's melted exactly how pizza dreams of being melted. Everything about it feels classic but done right. Joey D's nails that comforting, old-school Italian vibe where you know they care about the food. Between the garlic knots and the pizza, this place has me coming back again and again. If you don't order both, you're doing it wrong.

The Greek salad, lamb gyros, branzino, octopus, spreads, tuna tartare, beet salad, saganaki, and the crispy zucchini chips were all outstanding. And then came dessert. I genuinely can't pick a favorite between the donuts, the chocolate cake with ice cream, or the sponge cake. Each one was a wow moment. Truly unforgettable. Our waitress, Elena, was fantastic. She paced the meal perfectly and made the whole experience even better. Big thank you to Peter for the warm hospitality and great vibes. We can't wait to come back.

No apologies, no let me see what I can do. Absolutely the worst place I've been. We left. I just don't understand why they would think in this town that they are that special.

Trattoria Abruzzo serves some of the most authentic Italian food I've had, with deep Southern…read moreItalian flavors that are hard to find anywhere else. Everything tastes homemade, traditional, and honest. Their use of imported Italian flour and a water purification system makes a real difference. The homemade bread, pasta, and pizza are not only tastier but also much easier to digest than what you typically get from lower-quality, heavily processed flour. You can taste the difference immediately. The flavors are rich without being heavy, and the food has that unmistakable Southern Italian depth -- simple ingredients done right. The desserts are just as impressive. Their tiramisu and limoncello desserts are culturally correct and deeply nostalgic. They taste like something my mother would have made. Trattoria Abruzzo is the real thing -- authentic, flavorful, and made with care. Highly recommended.

But last night our server was Georgi and it was just too much. He was wearing a formerly white dress shirt with what appeared to be older stains (didn't clean during a washing, not recent and a normal job hazard) coupled with a cloud of cigarette smoke. Every time he came to the table you could smell him first. Also, because the restaurant walls are white, the greyed shirts are even more obvious. I looked around and the two female servers near our table had on equally grey shirts. Time to buy your team new shirts and talk about regular cleaning with Oxi products or a little bleach. The question you have to ask yourself as a diner: if they don't care about the cleanliness of their customer facing servers, what does the back of the house look like? Please address this promptly! Your restaurant is too good to overlook this.

Some of the tables are very close to where patrons walk by, so that was a little awkward. Ambience is nice. Better than we expected. It's deceiving from the outside. Nice decor. Bar looks like a good spot. Started with a regular side salad, which was very good, tried out a small cheese pizza, which was pretty good. Very crunchy with minimal flop. Chicken Alfredo was delicious as was the marsala! Big portions, so I was able to take some home. Our only complaint was the service. They were all over the place. Rolling silverware for the first 5-10 min when we were ready to order pretty quickly was frustrating. We asked for extra plates for the pizza and he said he would get them and then never came back. They seemed a bit understaffed/not assigned to specific tables? Hard to put my finger on it, but would definitely try coming back at a slower time. Also, bread service - even if on menu to purchase, would have been great, especially ordering pasta dishes.

Karen, the bartender came up very promptly to show us the happy hour food menu and to let us know that we would need to order within the next few minutes if we wanted something off that menu. We appreciated that very much. We ordered drinks, a Cosmo and a Martini, which were on happy hour till 6:30. We both liked our drinks. Normally, I'd go on to speak about the food received (from regular menu), but as good as the food was, and it was very good, I just want to give a shout out to our bartender Karen. We loved the attention she provided to us, and her great sense of humor. And at the end of the evening she went over and above when I left my coat on the back of my chair. She came out out of the restaurant, into the parking lot, looking for me so she could return it. That took an extra effort and I truly appreciate it. I hope Deep Lagoon does as well.
