Napoli By the Lake

"We had the best seat in the house overlooking the lake and Marina along with the most engaged waitress. I ordered the sea bass and it was cooked to perfection along with mashed potatoes and a delicious vegetable medley. We topped it off with creme brulee which was prepared as well as any French restaurant. I would like to reinforce that our waitress was so attentive and in tune with our needs and we will definitely go back for the service, food and atmosphere."

"It was our first and definitely not our last visit to this restaurant. We had reservations and were seated quickly. Our server, Greg, was attentive and friendly. Our food was absolutely delicious and there was a lot of attention to detail. Cannot say enough nice things about this restaurant! Thank you so much for a great anniversary date!"

"This place is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! We stopped by to have dinner one night and they were kind enough to squeeze us in even though we didn’t have a reservation. This was our first time there, and they suggested you try to make reservations 2 days in advance, so keep that in mind. The food was freaking AWESOME! I love seafood and always get crab cakes wherever we go. These were hands down the BEST crab cakes I have ever had. They had no filling and the flavors were amazing. My husband had the rigatoni and meatballs which were delicious. My son got the pasta with mussels and clams and it was great too. Their rolls are to die for! They were like soft delicious pillows of love! The water views were very pretty and the place had a great vibe. You had folks dressed up really nice, and casual folks eating outside in swimming trunks and flip flops. It was just a laid back fancy looking place with food that is better than some 5 star restaurants we have been too. We have reservations for the end of our SML vacation and can’t wait to go back. Staff was super friendly and nice!"

"A mixed bag of both good, and just okay for this first visit review of this lakeside eatery. We made reservations for Sunday of a holiday weekend. They were very accommodating of our requested time. The weather was frankly horrible to truly enjoy the lake views, but most tables are window tables, and the restaurant has a modern and casual atmosphere. Our waitress was very friendly, but after a nearby table was visited by a separate waiter, we noticed she never gave us the lengthy list of specials that night, offered us bread, or even brought water to drink. We both had cocktails, which were very unique and tasty. Our initial two choices for an appetizer were both sold out. We were then offered a flatbread offering, which we later found out was on the special menu for the evening. It was both tasty and filling. I had the Sea Bass and my wife had the Ribeye for our dinner choices. My fish was very good, although never before having beurre noisette as part of my dish, the amount of butter resting in the bottom was a little off putting to me personally. I can't say it hurt the flavor, but a quarter inch of oil surrounding my entire meal felt a little rough on my arteries. The Sea Bass rested on mashed potatoes with an added shredded vegetable medley. I can't say I would order it again, but if you're okay with the beurre noisette pairing, I think the flavors are certainly something you will enjoy. My wife ordered her steak medium rare, and it was definitely a medium at best. It also lacked the marbling of a true Ribeye. It wasn't horrible, but a little of a disappointment for her expectations. All in all our experiences rate another visit to this quaint little lakeside restaurant. If you're not offered the specials of the night, definitely ask, as some sounded quite delicious. Not an economical place to eat, but with a few tweaks here and there, I think the experience warrants the price."

"Love Donna!! She was such a wonderful server! My boyfriend and mom enjoyed their food a lot. Not much of an option for vegans but the pasta was still good. We were there celebrating a birthday and some folks in our party forgot to make a reservation but luckily we were seated at a high-top. Again, Donna was wonderful, so glad she was there! **Any review I write for restaurants usually outlines if there are any options for food allergies or preferences close to mine. Napoli has two vegetarian dishes(one with dairy and one without) it was good and they were nice about my order preferences**"
