Original Napoli - Memorial Dr

I can't believe this place has been under my nose for 33 years and I'm just trying it for the first time!
Cozy Italian restaurant with booth and table seating inside plus a small outdoor seating. It's a walk up order style but the bring the food to your table. Great service. I had the Caesar salad to start. They put carrot shreds in theirs. Interesting, as I've never seen carrots in a Caesar salad. It was good. For my meal, I had the Pasta Napoli. A zesty blend of basil sauce with a splash of alfredo sauce & fresh mushrooms. Served over ziti pasta. Bread is served with each dish. We also tried the fried mozzarella. These bad boys were huge! I have never seen mozzarella that big. Very tasty! The atmosphere is charming and the service is terrific! We met the owner, "Papa Zack". He was very friendly and dubbed his food as "Texas Italy" because the portions are so big. They truly are big. I had 2-1/2 meals off mine. The pizza at other tables looked delicious and I can't wait to try their soups. Will return soon!
Apparently, Papa Zack is adding burgers to the menu. There's a small space to the right of the main restaurant that will be for burger orders, as best I can tell. If he does Italian food this good and adds burgers, this place will be unstoppable! I will want to try the new addition as well!

I went to this place last night it was little place look like a little small restaurants in Italy. They were so busy and the food and the service was amazing and I'll definitely will go back there and they also have a special for Valentines gonna ask my date to take me back here..

I've been meaning to try this place mainly due to the Pizza. Ordered a pepperoni via UberEats delivery.

This pizza isn't "artisan" by any means. It's definitely not close to the Marco's, Domino's, etc. It's a straight up pizza pie, New York style. What I love about it? It's got a crisp on the crust! It's not doughy or chewy! On top of that, it tastes great.

I definitely want to try their Sicilian as well.

Ordered pizza Togo, it took awhile and then once i came back it was cold. Place seemed really dirty. The cook was not wearing gloves and i was not greeted when i walked in. Did not eat the pizza.

I love the ambiance of the restaurant, classic Italian and cozy feel. The staff is friendly and attentive, also very hard working; they were always doing something the whole time we were there. The food is so delicious!! Great prices and the food tasted fresh and made with love. We will definitely be coming back. They have great specials too! The food was nice and hot and they have the best marinara I've ever had!!! This place has been open for many years and my family has always come here. It's still a favorite of ours

I've been going to this restaurant since 2002. It used to be a great place to order to go. Lately, the food quality has declined and the counter staff can't seem to get my order right. The last order was repeated three times and they still got it wrong. It's very disappointing when you can no longer rely on what used to be a quality establishment.

Reading the previews reviews make laugh. This owner has a good solid dish and is kept clean, and food has great portions. I've been to other places, and the value you get here is solid. support small business and check this place out. You won't regret it.

I've put up with napolis enough times. The owner is a dick and shameless when it comes to understanding guest issues. Every new hire needs time I get it but it's basic stuff. Two pizzas not one. Capers added (which ahouls already be there) they don't come on it. Got food poisoning once. After the workers and food poisoning I tried again bc their food truly is good. The owner was just up right rude and entitled.

Steer clear. Food is good but don't support a butt head.

Have been here several times always without a problem. Until tonight. All tables were dirty stacked with dishes, food, glasses etc. I asked if a table could be cleaned off I was told "Ya sure" so we ordered food and then stood waiting for a table to be cleaned off. After 5 minutes and several staff members walking by us looking at the table while we stood by holding our drinks. I had to clean off the table myself and bus the dirty dishes. I guess only one bad experience in about 20 is not bad but we were disappointed.

I had lunch here last week for the first time coming in with low expectations. From what I understand this is a small Houston area restaurant chain and the outside looked a little dreary and the interior is cozy and relaxed. Parking spaces are plentiful in front. This is a counter service restaurant that has indoor and outdoor seating available along with a separate party room.

From the lunch menu, I decided on the Scallopini de Pollo for $10.95 that also comes with a salad and bread. Almost all of the entrees on this menu were below that price. After getting my drink from the self serve station, I grabbed a table and about 5 minutes later the salad and bread arrived. It was a nice salad with fresh greens, cucumbers and tomatoes with a side of Parmesan cheese and was very good. The bread was 2 large warm rolls and this food was a nice start.

About 10 minutes later the entree arrive. It was a large thin cut piece of chicken sautéed with a lemon flavor beside a bed of cooked spinach on the plate. The chicken was very flavorful and still juicy with the hint of lemon. The spinach was also very good and a delight to eat. I must say that this meal was not only tasty but also a generous serving of food. For the money it was a real value.

This is a quaint restaurant with a nice neighborhood vibe to it that anyone would feel comfortable to come to for a casual and relaxed meal. I would be happy to return.
