Once we were seated we were greeted soon after and were able to place orders in a timely manner. I was impressed that the menu was large. There were plenty of offerings for both pizza and pasta. The pizza appeared to be Naples-inspired pizza; however, the pizza was thin but did not taste near as good as Napule in Helsinki. I liked that although it was Italian-style pizza, there were diverse offerings of toppings more preferred with American pizza. I ordered a BBQ cheeseburger pizza with BBQ sauce topping, ground beef, bacon and cheddar cheese. I also ordered a pasta with pesto sauce, fettuccini noodles, Kalamata olives, buffalo mozzarella and parmesan cheese. The pasta was very good and the pizza was OK. A small salad bar was included. Overall 3.5 star experience with good service and reasonable prices.

If you are in Tampere for a few days or more you should not leave before checking out Napoli.

This is not the best pizza I have ever had (I'm from NYC) but it's still very impressive and I love the dough that they use. You can get pizzas like #100, the Finlandia, which has venison and Finlandia vodka, but if you want to start simply, try #1 - the Margherita. (And I'm not afraid to eat mine NY style, which means pick it up and fold it in half, and then tell everybody how awesome you are for eating it the "right" way). On my last visit I ordered #6 - the Calzone, which listed ingredients simply "cheese, ham". I misinterpreted this to mean I was going to get served a pie with extra cheese and ham toppings, since I thought the title was simply a name that they gave it, like Quattro Stagione or Frutti di Mare. But no - it's an actual calzone (and good too). If you don't speak Finnish and get the Finnish menu, just ask for the English one. Get a house red wine. When finished, pay for your meal up front and drop some money into the tip jar.
