Napoli Pizzeria

Good service but not the best Italian food. We ordered fried calamari, pizza, and lasagna. We didn’t like any of them.

Got there around 5pm on Victoria Day. My bf and I were seated promptly. Service started OK. Girl with black hair started by asking us if we wanted something to drink. We ordered 2 glasses of Sangria that arrived pretty fast. We then ordered a pizza each. The Italian sausage was pretty good. My bf then ordered another sangria for himself and the waitress NEVER ended up serving it. She never came back to tend to us. It got quite frustrating. I stood up to ask another guy who worked there for the bill. He never passed the message to our waitress. Horrible service. Once we got the bill, we noticed that the 3^rd sangria was charged. We had to ask to remove it. The staff does not know how to speak English well. Would not go back there again. There are tons of better pizzerias in Mtl. Not worth it.

Honestly disappointed that I could not select zero stars out of five because this is all this place deserves. My Italian DNA died a little bit tonight when I got served a pizza which smelled exactly like the restaurant itself. It was anything but pizza, just a wild combination of some soft flat bread topped with a weird combination that was supposed to be a «Quattro stagioni». When we got the bill and we paid cash our waiter did not bring us any change. I had to point that out to have the change back not only in a rude way but with the change itself made dirty by pieces of meat and tomato sauce on it. I left very little as a tip, and another waiter came and first told us to pay the bill and not give them a little change as a bill. When I pointed out that we actually already paid our bill and that was the tip, he got pissed saying that it was an offence to the cook. Anyway, he was not even our waiter. I left the place very disappointed, suggesting a few people grouping outside and looking at the menu to go away.

I’m here for lunch alone and I ordered a Lobster served with spaghetti. The lobster is a little salty for me but everything else is good. The bread they served before the meal is fresh and good. Overall the service is good basically and the food is too, the environment is comfortable and relaxing, but the waiter already chose 15% tips for me when I asked for the Debit machine and I couldn’t see the amount of money as he already skipped that step for me, which is either careless or bad service at this particular part. This place is worth coming after all.

As my friend and I strolled down the street to look for restaurants, we stumbled upon Napoli Pizzeria and got lured in by the festive and joyous musical instruments and lively customers. Plus, I happened to be craving Italian food, especially pasta, so we decided to walk in and eat dinner here.
The menu was simple since of the the dishes were pizza and pastas but there were still many different toppings and sauces making it difficult to choose. At last, I just kept it simple and ordered a pasta with meat sauce –that just can’t go wrong! In fact, I had an absolutely enjoyable meal! The pasta was delicious and hit the spot, right on! The pasta was not too hard or soft, and the sauce was generous with lots of shredded beef. The sangria was refreshing, but I wished it was a tad stronger.
The server was friendly and came often to check on us. It was a great experience!

I can’t actually comment on the food, since we waited well over an hour for our order — watching several other tables arrive, order, eat and leave — and still no pizza for us. Our waiter seemed friendly enough when we first arrived but then didn’t once come back to our table to apologize for the delay nor offer us anything in the meantime. Nothing.
The place wasn’t even busy (it was 10pm when we arrived) and yet a couple who came in 15mins after us ordered, ate and left — while we still waited… and waited. When a group of six, who’d arrived 20mins after we’d ordered, got their starters 20 mins later and then all their mains arrived, I saw red. I called over our waiter and told him to forget the pizza. «I’ll check on it,» he said, which was way too little and far too late. «No, just forget it, we don’t want it. We’ve sat here waiting while groups of people have come and gone and we’ve had nothing — it’s been over an hour. Forget it, we’re done here!» and with that we upped and left without even leaving any money for the pissy beer. It’s rare for me to get that annoyed and I’ve never left without paying for something. Had he come after us I might have thrown the money at him for the beers (which should have been comped considering our pointless wait) but he didn’t.
Based on many other reviews here, we probably had a lucky escape on the food anyway.

Came here because it was open late and the menu was available after midnight. However service was not good at all. Our party of five waited 40 – 50 minutes for our food. I have a feeling our server forgot to put our food in because when it did finally come out, it was appetizers and entrees all together. It tasted good and at least we knew it was fresh but that could have also been due to our long wait and growing hunger. Our server, an older man, was just generally brusque which comes off as rude.
While we were waiting for our food, we noticed that there was a dead lobster and a sick looking one in their lobster tank. So I definitely wouldn’t recommend getting the lobster…

I came here because my friend was desperately craving for Italian and the menu looked decent. We were quickly seated and ordered white sangria to start.
The waiter was never there. It took forever to take our orders. I ordered a shrimp pizza while my friend ordered mushroom pasta with meat sauce. The pizza was good. I devoured as much as I could before falling in a food coma. My friend was very happy and exclaimed that it was the best pasta she ever had.

This corner is a great Montréal italian secret. The food is inexpensive and good! Like beyond any haute cuisine you will find in Montrel.

Incredible. I just watched the owner and his staff berate a couple for not tipping enough here. And the lack of tip was completely warranted. They deserve nothing for a tip here. Have never experienced such rudeness. The waiter literally huffed at us for not ordering dessert.
The food is nothing to be excited about for the price either. First and last time here.

The hubby and I were on the way to the bus depot to take the bus back to Ottawa, but wanted to grab one last bite to eat in Montréal. We stumbled across this place after a bit of walking, checked out the huge menu placed outside and walked on in.
There was only one other diner in there at the moment. We sat right by the window and asked for a margarita pizza to split. Although when it did arrive it was basically just a cheese pizza.
None the less, it was pretty darn good. The crust was perfect; not too thin, but not too thick. There was garlic and olive oil brushed along the crust of the pizza which was fantastic. Sauce was good and cheese was nice and gooey. I loved sprinkling chili peppers and Parmesan on the pizza which they had out on the table.
Décor was interesting, with lots of unique Italian pieces and touches. Almost made you feel like you were invited into the owners home and he was cooking for you.
The one turn off was that we were told that their credit machines were acting up and cash would be preferred, although we never heard this mentioned to the next patrons.
Pizza was also more expensive than we thought, I think with tax and tip we paid about $ 26.00.
What I really liked was that they had a Unilocal sticker on their door! *YAY*
A nice place to visit if you are looking for a legit pizza.

When my family and I walked in the place smelt like on old mop or dirty dish rags, but I had been there a few years earlier and the food was good. The staff would not crack a smile almost like they did not want to be there. The pizza was greasier then I remembered and not as good. Way over priced ! $ 3.50 for an apple juice for my 2 year old and $ 20 per medium pizza’s. This place needs a reality check.
I agree with one of the other reviews. Dirty, filthy place, I would not let my family in the washroom. They should be closed down by the food inspector or at this rate they will be out of business.

So authentic!
Pizza was good
Decorations were 3spooky5me
Tri-​lingual arguments between kitchen and wait staff. Much funny
⁹⁄₁₀ would come back

The waitstaff was quite pleasant. The place looked like it was decorated by my hoarding grandmother.
The food was OK, nothing more, nothing less. Prices were a little too high for what you get and the menu was encyclopedic.
The reason I’m bothering to write this review is let others know that this is not a clean place to eat. The bathroom was tiled sewer, nothing in the restaurant looked like it had been cleaned since they first opened. The cherry on top however was the fact there was a bug zapper light directly above our table… inside. Little flies and moths were constantly falling down into my friend’s hair, glass and food. We didnt notice at first in time to move tables because amongst all the clutter on the walls, it almost blended in.
I would not recommend this place.

It’s a lovely place to experience, will take you to Napoli and come back :)
Good food, pricy? Maybe.

I did NOT enjoy my time at this restaurant AT ALL. The staff was mediocre at best and the food was downright disgusting. You know when you eat half of your plate and you still walk away feeling bloated and weighed down? I had the pasta but the pizza looked like the store-​bought pizza Delissio, which is good, but why would you pay $ 15 for a slice? The pasta sauce was not even fresh, it looked like a bunch of cans put together, and super greasy. Just not worth it at all and I not only do not recommend it, but I inform people not to go there ever. And I am usually very easy with reviews. Plenty of other GREAT places in Montréal guys!

this place deserves more than 3 starts for sure! the pizza was so tasty and authentic. since it is the summer we could sit out on this patio they created and the atmosphere was so lovely. there were many options for pizza, definitely 2 pages of selection. even the rolls of bread before our meal were delicious. only complaint is that the service was slow and they had no character.

Delicious and friendly atmosphere. I moved to Montréal a month ago and have been craving Lasagne. I found the perfect spot! Nice, warm and cozy for a late night date with my Love. The staff is very friendly and the prices were reasonable. I will be back for the pizza!

the albatross in the form of a lady hanging around the front of the entrance coupled to the waiter who ended up serving our table should have been the giveaway not to go in. getting the menu and seeing 59 315 310 permutations of pizzas should have been the other giveaway. seriously, i watched someone finish reading one entire book of game of thrones while i was going through the menu.
after settling on a pizza, i had the pleasure of watching a real life soap opera unfold in front of me. we were conveniently seated right by the window where we could watch the whole event of the stalker female and the waiter bantering back and forth in what could only be the result of the end of a sour relationship. sigh. it was more bearable than staring at the décor of this place. i don’t even know how to describe it.
at least the pizza was good. oh wait, wrong review. the pizza was, at best, mediocre. it was also ridiculously expensive for what you got. avoid this place. there are plenty better in the st. denis area.

Je pense que je vais essayer de faire bref, mais il y a matière, ou pas…
Jeudi soir 18h30, la pizzeria habituelle, la «Dei Campari» avec ses pizzas au feu de bois, rue Saint-​Denis, est pleine à craquer.
Pourquoi né pas aller dans la pizzeria en face qui m’a toujours attiré l’œil avec sa déco flashy???
Accueil agréable par un serveur, avec son accent italien, qui a jeté sa cigarette pour nous.
Une fois l’effet étourdissant de la déco (voir les photos) passé, voyons voir la carte…
Une table d’hôte raisonnable, une soixantaine de sortes de pâtes et plus de quatre-​vingt pizzas différentes… Rien d’exceptionnel, pas d’originalité et même pas de pâtes ou pizzas aux fromages…
Menu du soir (à deux) :
Une soupe minestrone, pas trop mal, mais les légumes paraissant frais sont trop cuits. Finalement, elle né doit pas être si fraîche.
Une soupe aux oignons gratinée, bonne mais avec un MORCEAU de fromage par dessus.
Quelques morceaux de pains réchauffés avec quelques godets de beurre qui est devenu complètement liquide à cause de la chaleur des pains (combien de fois ont-​ils fondu ?)
Une pizza, probablement une base préparée il y a quelques jours, garnie et réchauffée juste pour nous…
Une part de lasagne à la viande et vu la couleur blanchâtre de cette dernière, ça né devait pas être du bœuf, avec une sauce tomate, le tout jeté dans une assiette. Petite portion, mais désolé, je n’ai pas pu finir… C’était vraiment pas à mon goût, plutôt celui d’un vieux frigo.
Deux ex (s)presso et la facture…
Avec deux liqueurs, un total 62 $ avec les TIPS.
Le service à été rapide, les serveurs souriant, sauf une fois où le monsieur est venu la bouche pleine (difficile de sourire dans ce cas là).
Il n’y avait pas foule, mais on aurait mieux fait d’attendre un petit quart d’heure, qu’une table se libère, dans le restaurant d’en face…
Petit bilan et pas des moindres, sans s’être fait péter la panse, douleurs abdos et nausées pour ce soir… Léger doute sur la fraîcheur…
Les propriétaires en font de trop (déco, nombre de plats, etc…), cela manqué de finesse et de qualité.
A éviter (désolé).

J’y suis allée une fois avec mon chum et on avait été terriblement déçus par la qualité versus le prix. Et nous avons été horripilés par l’intense décoration.
J’y suis retournée avec mon père il y a peu, et nous avons été reçus par le patron personnellement. La bouffe était bonne, le menu midi est peu cher… J’ai probablement jugé trop vite. Il me faudrait une 3e visite pour valider ma note de 3 étoiles.
Un joueur de violon le soir, c’est ok, mais c’est un peu gossant quand tu veux jaser gentiment et que tu as l’impression qu’il va t’écoeurer jusqu’a ce que tu lui laisses un pourboire. C’est cute, fancy et tout. mais pas tout le temps.

Hardly expected to be in an Italian joint our first night in Montréal, but it was highly recommended by our concierge, and it certainly delivered. I love a place with an old school Italian waiter to greet you and talk food with you. Was just as pleased with the 70 or so pizza options! Simply a nice, delicious, reasonably priced meal.

Très souvent full quand on passé devant, full quand j’ai décidé de l’essayer. Je m’attendais à un service lent et j’me suis pas trompé mais pas pantoute. Au moins j’y étais mindé. :-)
C’est le genre de place à aller avec Grand-​maman (pour le duo guitare/​violon qui se promèné dans le resto en jouant les demandes spéciales des plus jolies doyennes de la place) avec réservation et si possible, choisissez votre table.
Grand choix de pâte et pizza, rien de marquant comme spécialité en tant que tel non plus.
Je né crois pas y retourner, y’a mieux dans le genre sur le même rue.

Certainement l’une de mes pires soirées dans un restaurant. Non pas que la nourriture était mauvaise. Bien que je n’ai pas non plus le souvenir qu’elle était exceptionnelle. Mais disons que la façon dont nous avons été traités ce soir là, mes amis et moi, a gâché tout le reste!
Déjà, il y a clairement trop de tables dans ce restaurant, si bien qu’on s’y sent très rapidement oppressé. Nous, nous avons eu la «chance «de nous retrouver à une table dans le passage entre la salle et les cuisines. Nous étions donc tranquilles dans notre coin. Du moins, entre deux passages de serveurs…
Serveur dont l’amabilité né nous a pas particulièrement frappés d’ailleurs. Non plus que son professionnalisme. Il né nous a pas décroché un seul sourire de toute la soirée, n’a jamais rempli nos verres d’eau et s’est montré tellement agacé lorsque nous avons hésité sur nos commandes (le menu est très varié, reconnaissons leur au moins ça…) que nous n’avons pas osé lui demander de l’huile piquante ni du parmesan. Il aussi trouvé le moyen de se tromper sur notre commande: trois plats sur quatre ont dût être ramenés en cuisine!
Malgré cela, nous avons tout de même donné un pourboire de 10% car après tout, ce garçon passait peut-​être une mauvaise soirée… Peut-​être que d’habitude il était plus prévenant, plus souriant, etc. Bref, nous lui avons laissé le bénéfice du doute. Et là le patron est arrivé comme un cheveu sur la soupe, en nous a faisant remarquer bien fort que nous n’avions même pas laissé les 15% de pourboire attendus!!! Ce à quoi mon ami a simplement répondu: «mauvais service, mauvais pourboire! «.
Cette expérience était peut-​être un ensemble de mauvais hasards mais toujours est-​il que pour nous, le Napoli Pizzeria c’est fini!
