    This restaurant is the most authentic Italian restaurant I've been to in Sydney. The pizzas are to die for. The arancini are mouth watering. The sugo is like velvety tomato sauce that has been cooking for hours. The wine is delicious. All of the staff are Italians and after everything, it's not that expensive! I really rate this place and rave on about to my friends. Definitely recommended.

    I noticed this restaurant one Sunday night as I was driving to Woollies. It was full of seated people and a long line up. Now I know why, the most delicious Italian pizzas with tasty fresh ingredients.

    I did not give Via Napoli a full five star rating as the entrees and female staff were disappointing. When the female waitress took our order, we had problems pronouncing the menu items and she actually made an annoyed face which was quite rude ( and this occurred several times throughout the service). To be honest, she appeared to be hating life. We had to pretend she did not exist to continue our great lunch.

    We had the cheese and ham arancini balls which we all found lacking in flavour and although the filling of the stuffed zucchini was fabulous, the batter was very thick and doughy.

    We shared a Margherita, Quattro Salumi and Diavalo. I absolutely love the tomato base, cheese (fior de latte) and the Salami has a real bite!

    We shared a ricotta cake which was a good ending to our lunch along with great coffee!

    I will definitely return for the pizzas and ricotta cake!

    I've upped my rating after being back again recently. Luigi has leveled out and expanded the outdoor seating area so it takes a lot more tables (and is a lot more comfortable) and he's also put in awnings. The service seems to have stepped up a notch too, with a larger team of waiters and waitresses, all of whom are extremely friendly and love a good banter. This place has gotten a lot more popular, bringing in more than just the local crowds. We arrived for an 8:30pm weeknight booking because it was booked out, and I was surprised to see a long line starting to form right after we were seated.

    The menu has expanded too, with a variety of daily specials. When we last visited, I was excited to see a large tub of buffalo mozzarella balls and prosciutto sitting on the meat slicer.

    The pizza is great, though I still reserve highest praise for other Pizzeria in Surry Hills. Luigi is a bit of a crowd-pleaser, making his way around the tables. He recognised us immediately and stopped by several times to chat and charm the parents who were visiting for the first time.

    Via Napoli is such a great place for a meal with family or friends, and I'm really happy to see him doing so well.

    I am still so in love with this place. The staff are so friendly, you are sure to get a laugh or two! The vibe is really great with lots of families and friends gathered in an unpretentious, homely atmosphere. It can get a little chilly so bring a jacket if it is a windy or cold day. I haven't eaten anything here that I didn't love! Everyone I have recommended this place to has loved it... Book in advance as this place has become very very popular!

    Left this place singing Bob Marley's "Buffalo Soldier". The Buffalo cheese is unbelievable and carries this pizza. The authentic Italian feel of the place adds to the dining experience definitely would recommend to anyone who appreciated delicious food.

    Authentic, flavoursome pizza & well priced to boot. Kid-friendly too with their "Mickey Mouse" shaped pizza. I almost don't want to recommend it so that this place can stay a local secret. Have yet to eat under their new alfresco area so I'll be back there very soon!

    Luigi and his team are doing a great thing, bringing traditional pizza and a great Italian spirit to an otherwise vanilla northern Sydney suburb.

    Luigi is a 3rd-gen pizza maker, he proudly tells us. The proof is in the pudding, or pizza, as it is in this case. I love that you won't be able to find pineapple on the menu, even if you asked.

    You can get metre-long pizzas with 3 types of toppings for $60, which is a great price. , Via Napoli is a great addition to the Italian food scene in Sydney.

    I love this place. If you are looking for authentic Italian and great service it is here. The locals love it with long lines and tables spilling into the street. The menu is amazing- from metre long pizzas to fried zuchinni flowers. The staff are super friendly, speak Italian to you and are always willing to share a joke and a laugh. It is difficult sometimes to get a table but it is worth it! Can't wait till my next visit!
