Review from Morton F.
New Castle, DE
This restaurant is in a strip mall on Kirkwood Highway westbound. The parking lot can get very busy at times but so far, I haven't had a problem finding a parking space somewhere in the lot.
Thus far, I've only been here for geocaching events. When there is a large group of orders, it can take a long time for them to prepare the food. However, this way, I'm assured that it's not all microwaved like they do at some restaurants. Service is okay. Food portions are larger than I expected. Even if the taste is only about average, I think there's value here. -

I've visted this restaurant a few times on recommendations from friends. The food is pretty good, but the pizza is sub-par to a place like Ciaos. The atmosphere is nice if you sit in the dining area and the service is average.
I wasn't all that impressed but it was an ok place to go. The prices are a little high for what you are getting. -

This is probably the best value to quality Italian place I have ever found. The food and service is always consistent and excellent. I eat there about once a week and I have not been disappointed.
There are multiple options for pizza slices which are consistent. The hot sandwiches are always good. The size of the meals are massive for lunch, but great value and quality. -

Solid meal, no food complaints. Went on a Saturday night and the place wasn't crowded. I felt as if the prices were a tad high for what you received

I visit my family once or twice a year and this is the one restaurant in the entire state that I absolutely have to go to while I'm in Delaware. No excuses. A trip to visit my family isn't complete with out a night at Cafe Napoli.
The business has expanded over the years. First it was a small shop off Kirkwood Highway. Then they expanded the back room. Then they opened up a restaurant down on Main Street in Newark with a slightly different name. The original spot is still my favorite and I'm glad to say the food tastes just as good today as it did back in the late 90s when we discovered it.
I know I've had Italian food that's been better than Cafe Napoli, but this is my all-time sentimental favorite. The lasagna is my meal of choice and they put so much cheese on it that I'm sure my arteries began clogging at 17. The people who work there are friendly (but not overly friendly that it seems inauthentic). The service is good and the wait staff tends to remember repeat customers.
There will be a wait almost any day of the week, but believe me, it's worth it. Go peruse the sale rack at Kohl's or buy some hair product at that random store next door. Then when your name is called, sit down in a booth up front (or table in the back), enjoy the free bread and be glad you have patience. I promise it will be worth it.Listed in: Delaware... Is That in New…

1000% my favorite hidden Italian restaurant in de. The portions are humungo and the prices won't leave you running to the ATM for some extra $. Food is delicious, seating is always available immediately and it's a great spot for a group dinner.

Great takeout! The pizza crust, sausage, onions, and particularly the sauce were fantastic.

Great place to eat!! Don't let the exterior fool you because it looks very small from the outside since it is in a strip mall! You can grab a slice or walk back into the restaurant and have a HUGE Italian meal. You will be bringing home a dogie bag since the portion size are immense! The lasagna is so full of cheese you might need to reset your pacemaker. The service and prices are both great. Overall, this place is a hidden treasure!!!!

Pretty great pizza. It's not Gerardos, but nobody has matched Gerardos in the state. The eggplant pizza and the shrimp pizza are outstanding. I've only had the pasta one time and can't give it as much of a glowing review - it was decent, nothing memorable. But the pizza beats a lot of the local competition. And the interior is very quaint. The staff always seems pretty welcoming, too. A lot of young kids behind the counter, but they're not the aloof or disinterested kind of young staff that you often see at restaurants.

Overall, this place was not too terribly bad; however, I am giving it a 2 star because of the lack of flavor that I experienced in my food.
In addition, do note that the portions are ridiculous in size. My order was Lasagna. There was so much cheese on it I could hardly finish it (note: avid cheese lover here).
The wait staff was friendly and attentive. -

Though the portions are ginormous, you definitely get the bang for your buck! and the bread before the meal is wonderful!

Decent place to eat. They need to learn how to season their food a little better, but the portions are big and the quality is good. Definitely a repeat customer.
