Trattoria di Napoli - Perry (GA)

5 /5 Chris Manning: I was craving some authentic Italian food so I hopped on Google maps to see what locals were recommending and came across Trattoria di Napoli. The reviews looked solid so off we went to give them a try. In short we are so glad that we did. We tried the mozzarella sticks and several pasta dishes which were all fantastic - especially the "Cacio Pepe" pasta. Possibly the best pasta that I have had to date - an absolute must try. It just had such an amazing flavor. There were ample drink options and Emili took such amazing care of us and was able to accommodate quirky requests and made excellent recommendations. She was exactly who you would want representing your business - top notch and so friendly! She even recommended a dessert that I would have never tried which was an Olive Oil cake with a sweet citrus filling that was just excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you are looking for an authentic Italian restaurant in the Perry Georgia area. I do not think that you would find one better!

5 /5 paul rozell: What an amazing service experience with Eric, and the food was amazing! The Margherita Pizza was very very close to the pizza in Naples Italy. The appetizers were hot, fresh and delicious. The tomatoes and burrata was divine with just the right amount of course ground salt to bring out the flavor blend of the basil and balsamic vinegar. Dinner courses were Carbonara which was very good and clearly a traditional sauce and not cream based. The house made pesto was perfect with fresh pesto and olive oil, but the Cacio e pepe took the show to an entirely new level! A perfect pasta and sauce, traditional in every way! For dessert, Tiramisu is definitely the way to go. Not a soggy mess, but firm with coffee flavor and a mildly sweet cream....just perfect! Thanks for a wonderful evening!

5 /5 Christian Smith: We had the best experience! Brandon, our waiter, played a big role in that! He was so kind, fun, and had such a positive attitude. He also recommended the dish my husband got and LOVED. He got the Cacio Pepe and I wish I had gotten it. It was delicious. I got the chicken marsala and it was a little on the sweeter side but I still enjoyed it. The Mozzarella sticks are huge, everything is definitely worth the money. We will be back, sooner than later!

1 /5 Nikki Nixon: We really wanted to love Trattoria Napoli after hearing so many people rave about it, but our visit was disappointing from start to finish. Let’s start with the good — the bar staff, Kelsey and Chloe, were absolutely fantastic. Friendly, attentive, and they made a great Manhattan Beach Hooch. Honestly, the bar experience was the highlight of the night. Unfortunately, dinner was another story. We ordered the Cacio e Pepe and the Chicken Alfredo. The Cacio e Pepe was so dry that my boyfriend actually had to add water to his pasta just to make it edible. The noodles were undercooked and crunchy — definitely not how pasta should be served. He added shrimp (only got four) and was upcharged for them. He powered through it because he was starving, but it was rough. My Alfredo wasn’t any better. The pasta came out clumped together in a dry, gooey mess with almost no sauce at all. The chicken was so dry it was like chewing cotton balls. When I asked for more Alfredo sauce just to be able to eat it, I was charged extra — which made no sense, considering the original dish barely had any sauce to begin with. To be fair, they did remake my dish, and the second version was much better — creamy sauce, hot chicken, and actually enjoyable. But when the bill came, the upcharge for the extra sauce was still there. That left a bad taste, literally and figuratively. For the price tag, the food just isn’t worth it. The flavors were mediocre, and the quality inconsistent. We’ve been before (earlier in the evening around 6:30) and had a better experience, but this time we came at 7:30 — and that shouldn’t make a difference in food quality. All in all, the service at the bar was great, but the kitchen execution and management oversight really missed the mark. Sadly, we won’t be back. I’d rather go to Fresco’s or even Olive Garden before spending that kind of money again here.

5 /5 Brendan Housler: Been twice, both visits were great! The staff is really exceptional with very positive attitudes and knowledgeable. The food is all incredible; arriviate orecchiette was my favorite so far. Even the bread service was more than “just bread”. Thanks so much for a fantastic night. Would come back for thirds!
