5. Naples

I wanted to LOVE this place.....
.....but the dirty light fixtures, stained ceiling tiles, cramped bar and outdated decor really made it difficult. The service was excellent, but unfortunately the food was only so-so; very heavy on the garlic. even for garlic lovers. The wine list had very few Italian wines; odd for an Italian restaurant. The bread gets an "A", though. Wish I could have loved it, but I didn't. I wouldn't recommend it.

Naples is AMAZING! The atmosphere is so intimate with low lighting and high-backed booths that create a perfect level of romance and privacy. The waiters were friendly and service was prompt.

I thought the food was great, service excellent, and nice atmosphere. Very good experience. I'd go again!
