This was second time we visited in December after Christmas WITH a reservation. It took 15 minutes to get a server to stop by for the first time after we had to ask someone. We were disappointed once again then even when our orders were...taken it still took forever to get bread, more drinks everything. No waters refilled until we asked.More
Outstanding service, wait staff and esp bartender "Jonathan" --authentic Italian pasta dishes served in a timely manner, high quality esp Italian wedding soup and Napoli's bread/salads-comfortable, pleasant dining experience--relaxing, no rush, service w a smile--cozy decor--true Italian comfort food
While in town for a conference, 8 of us went to dinner here. Service was very friendly and prompt, food was delicious (omg that bread), and the ambiance was just lovely and exactly what we were looking for. Was so bummed they were out of...tiramisu, so I will be back to try it next time I'm in Indy!More
We like Fazoli's for quick pasta dishes and we enjoy Olive Garden for some unique dishes and even The Old Spaghetti Factory for spaghetti, but when we really want Italian there is only one place to go: Napoli Villa. We made a visit this past...Saturday for our daughter's choice of last dinner before she heads back to college. As always we were pleased. It was crowded and as noisy as we have ever seen and because it was busy our entrees took a bit longer, but oh were they worth it. We started with the antipasto salad as we always do. In a word superb. We got fresh--I mean hot bread! For her entree my wife decided to sample the shrimp gnocchi special and boy was it special. The pasta was delicious and the shrimp cooked just right. I went back to an old standby the pollo al marsala. What a great choice and the fettuccine on the side was perfect. My daughter enjoyed her manicotti and my mother-in-law her lasagna. We split two good sized tiramisus for dessert. Our waitress, Sherry, was friendly and professional as well. Do yourself a favor try this family owned multiple generous place for authentic Italian!More
Quality ingredients, reasonable prices, friendly staff (talking about you, Laura) and a charming decor makes this place a true Indy (Beech Grove Main Street, actually) Hidden Gem. The Antipasta salad was lightly dressed and very good. The cannoloni was absolutely superb. The only drawback was...that they were out of the home made Tiramisu. Guess we will have to come back!More
This is genuine real Italian from 3 generation family recipes. service is a little slow at times but worth the wait. The shrimp dishes are so tender. Servers have all been very nice.
This was the first time I'd eaten at this restaurant and have to reserve my comments as I only ordered the wedding soup and house salad. Both were good as was the bread. Not extraordinary though as it tasted just like what I get at...Olive Garden. So until I taste the Lasagna or spaghetti I'll just give it an average rating. The decor was interesting and looked exactly how I would picture an authentic Italian restaurant.More
Have now been twice in a month, and have not been disappointed. The first time I had the tortellini in an excellent sauce. Second time I had lasagna. Antipasto salad is good, but too much dressing for me, so next time I will ask to...have the dressing on the side. Bread is above average. They have a nice dessert--the bomb--sherbet egg shape with an outer layer of white chocolate. (These are big enough for 4 people). Good way to end the meal. I have had the cannoli (average for a cannoli), but I like the "bomb" much better. Service was good--prompt, not too intrusive. Bill for two with one glass of wine, desert, and before tip was $50.More
We visited Napoli for our first Dinner Club. We had a great time. The anti pasta salad and bread were delicious. We enjoyed a bottle of Lambrusco. We found the Vodka pasta (medium) to be quite spicy and the veal dish a little pasty. The...spaghetti, manicotti, lasagna, chicken cacciatore were delish! One of our group got the Spumante and LOVED it!More
My husband and I accidentally came upon this quaint little restaurant when exploring downtown Beech Grove. The restaurant opened in 1962 by an Italian couple and the restaurant has remained in the hands of family. The decor is very beautiful and inviting. The service was...great and the food was delicious! My husband and I both got the half order of fettuccine alfredo with chicken, which had a thick and creamy sauce that was very flavorful. The meals came with bread and a salad. The antipasto salad had a homemade Italian vinaigrette that was light and tasteful. The half order was plenty for each of us. We didn’t have the manicotti, but a regular customer explained that she eats it everyday and loves it. Dress is casual or dress up for a nice night out. There is plenty of seating and you will not pay anymore here than Olive Garden. The biggest difference between the two restaurants is the authenticity of the food at Napoli Villa. You will not be disappointed.More
