Review Summary

Reviews portray Pizzeria Napoletana as a warm, bustling Italian spot in Little Italy known for authentic Neapolitan pizza straight from a wood fired oven, with crusts described as thin and crisp and toppings fresh and plentiful, plus satisfying desserts like tiramisu and strong espresso. The atmosphere is repeatedly praised as cozy and family friendly, with a lively terrace at times, and the BYOB policy along with a nearby wine shop is widely appreciated. Service is a mix; many find it friendly, attentive and efficient, even when crowded, while others report slow or impersonal service and occasional missteps. Food quality is generally high, especially pizzas and pastas, though a few visits note inconsistencies such as pizza that is over or undercooked, or garnishes and temperature not up to expectations. Overall, Pizzeria Napoletana is regarded as a Montreal institution worth visiting for a flavorful, affordable Italian meal, with many patrons returning, while others suggest visiting off peak hours or opting for takeout during busy times to avoid longer waits.

This place is way over-rated.
Pizza was overcooked pasta was soggy.
Service was not up to standard .
No ice buckets for your wine???
Nothing authentic about this place
This place is saved by its great location.
More like an American olive garden.

Mid at best, pasta was over priced for what we paid for not to mention the servers where avoiding us like plague.

This restauran is very popular. They take no reservations, first come first serve. Over 40 different wood oven pizzas, over 30 pasta dishes so you will find something you like. Everything is delicious, service is fast & efficient. It's a bring your own wine with a beautiful terrace on Dante Street in the heart of little Italy. The only downside is the street parking which is a a bit difficult.

Always on the hunt for great Italian food, not a good fan of thin-crust pizza but IT IS Delicious, fresh pasta, & a tasty buffalo & burrata starter. No alcohol, but you can grab a beer or wine right across the street. Super chill vibe & great service. Highly recommended!

This place never disappoints! The food is absolutely delicious. They're well-known for their pizza & pasta, & we tried the rapini sausage pizza & the tortellini alla Romana with prosciutto, rosé sauce, & mushrooms-both were incredible. We went for lunch & it came to about $60 for the two of us, which felt totally worth it.

As an Italian, I'm very picky about eating pasta at restaurants, but this place is the best. It feels like home-warm, welcoming, & authentic. The staff is super friendly & professional. I 100% recommend it!

If I remember rightly, the pasta used to be homemade. I was very disappointed when I learned that the pasta was just ordinary dry pasta. The sauces, however, we delicious. In the future, if I want to eat pasta, I'll make it myself the way my nonna made it or I'll go to a restaurant where I know the pasta tastes like fatta in casa.

There's always a line here so i decided to go try it. we went on a saturday afternoon & thank god there was no line. Garlic knots were so oily that it felt like a sponge soaked in oil biting into it. Fettuccine alfredo seemed like it was reheated frozen pasta & completely tasted like béchamel sauce. Pizza was okay, but not the greatest i've had in the city. Totally understand that it has a rep for being family ran, & the environment was nice, however, the food totally missed. Would not return again.

Pizzeria Napoletana is the most incredible icon of Little Italy Montreal. Pasta & pizza at its perfection. The food is delicious & authentic. The variety of pastas & pizzas will satisfy even the most finicky. All of the food is prepared fresh & delicious. The service is friendly & courteous. The portions are generous. The prices are reasonable. You can bring your own wine or if you forget, you can buy a bottle across the street at their very own retail store of wines & Italian products. We'll, the lineups at their door on Friday & Saturday nights says it all, but well worth the wait I assure you of that. This place has been around for as long as I have, & like me perfection all the way. Ready for this one - I rate Pizzerria Napoletana 6 out of 5 mustaches for its perfection & longevity. Tell them that Uncle Carmine sent you.

Probably the best spot in Montreal to get a Neapolitan pizza. Be prepared to be in the line for at least 20 minutes, this is the time we waited for on a mid-week day to be seated. The service was good & attentive & came to our table periodically. We were seated on the patio area but still was hard to hear each other as the noise was quite high from inside the restaurant however that is not a bad sign & I don't complain about it. The food was quite good & got ready relatively fast although that was not my favourite dish nothing was wrong with the food as my taste or moose was different on that day. Moreover, there are a variety of pasta on the menu & next time I will go for that.

My review is the review of someone who came to this restaurant for around 30 years with my Nonna initially & my dad since I was a child. The first thing I noticed after eating here twice within just a few weeks apart, the quality of the food varies greatly from one occurence to the other. Two weeks ago the food was very good & yesterday, very underwhelming (wet pizza, mooshy & tasteless pasta) & that, even if we ordered twice the exact same meals. Difficult to know what to expect: the Pizzeria Napoletana of my childhood or some generic italian pizzeria that I feel is not worth going back to? I wish I could say the former but at this time, for me the consistency is lacking to say the least. The prices have increased tremendously over the 30 or so last years but I get it, prices increase everywhere. The quality of the food should at least not be affected by any of that. Although it took a little too long for our liking to be attended to initially, the waiter we had was good & seemed to enjoy his job which we appreciated. Unfortunately, it is not something we can say about everyone in the staff that day. As if working there for a long time allows you to not care about welcoming people properly. An effort should be made to serve customers properly.. placing the forks & plates in front of each customers instead of in the middle of the table in a bunch like saying "serve yourself we're not here for that" (it's been like that for a long time though). This is gonna sound weird & I hope it's not gonna be taken in a wrong way because it's something not everyone will understand or agree with but.. I understand waiters origins have changed over time as I understand time have changed with the lack of workforce & you have to hire good waiters & not just any italian waiter just because it's an italian restaurant.. but the fact that waiters speak spanish amongst themselves is just breaking the vibe for me. Just think of an african restaurant that would have asian waiters talking their native languages between them. It would be kinda weird right? Not because spanish is closer to italian that it's less weird. The only people that would disagree probably can't tell the difference. It simply dilutes the "italian food experience" further more. Anyways, if this wasn't one of my favorite childhood memories I would propably not say a word. Simply trying to help preserve the greatness that I remember. Sorry if this offended anyone. Definitely not the goal intented.
