Via Napoli Pizzeria - Surry Hills

DON'T BE DECEIVED by walking past and seeing the place looking full and busy VERY soggy, doughy, undercooked pizza (see photo) The salami tasted like it

My husband came here with an Italian friend (from Italy - not Australia) and he knew someone at Via Napoli so they had the best time ever.

I don't give them out very often but Via Napoli is 5 stars! I've been to their pizzeria in Lane Cove pretty often and I loved it but it was always a bit

On the basis of the popularity of this restaurant, we decided to give this a go. The food is average. Pizza is pretty soggy and the number of toppings can be counted on one hand. The place is exceptionally noisy and yelling is a must if you want to have a conversation with the people on the other side of the table. Waiters are too pushy. Not a very nice experience!

Went here on a Friday night and it was busy. The service was fun and friendly as well as being efficient. The starters of meatballs and zucchini flowers were delicious and of a decent size. The napoletana pizza was excellent while the experiment with ordering a fritta pizza which was a folded over and deep fried pizza was not so great. It wasn't the concept but I wasn't wild on the taste which was a bit bland. Not to worry however as overall it was a very pleasant dining experience. I've seen this particular venue go through a number of changes and this current incarnation is definitely recommended. The popularity of the place probably attests to that.
