Extremely tasty food! This is not the Cheesecake Factory so don't expect 10,000 choices and the ability to modify the food. Our party of 3 adults and 2 kids were all happy with our food. The only small "issue" is that we tried most of their desserts and one of them (I forget which one) was just OK while the other 3 of 4 were fantastic. read more

This place has been here for 16 years but I had never noticed it. It's a small place next to Cost Plus World Market. We came here on a recommendation from a family member. It was very good. The server was very attentive, well mannered and fast. She helped our group of 5 make a few choices. We ordered a pizza for the table and pastas for everyone. We ordered: Margherita Pizza Penne alla Vodka Fettuccine alla Bolognese Rigatoni alla Pasqualona Every dish was very tasty and well made. I don't know why this place doesn't have a 5 rating. We also tried 5 of the 6 desserts they offer and they were also all very good. The only things that may seem out of place are the paper menus and that they only offer a few beverage options. They serve water but there's no soda machine. They had Coke, Diet Coke, Sanpellegrino Aranciata (orange) and Sanpellegrino Limonata (lemon), I don't recall any other drinks available. So if you don't like any of those or going with little kids, keep that in mind. Overall a very good experience, we will definitely come back. read more

A friend had recommended this place to me so I was excited to try this place out. The restaurant itself is a bit small but cozy. We ordered the Cappellini alla Checca which has a strong garlic flavor and the funghi pizza. The portions were large which can be pretty uncommon for some Italian spots. Our waitress was friendly and the food came out hot. Would recommend overall:) read more

My friends and I came here for an early dinner before heading into the city. We were seated upon arrival. Food: I ordered a mushroom pizza. It was very hot when it came as it had just gotten out of the oven. It was pretty good. It may have been softer than I normally prefer my thin crust pizzas, but it was still good. Service: Service was quick. You could see from the table how they're making the pizzas and putting it into their large pizza oven. The food came as it was ready. It is a small restaurant, and it was decently busy when we went. Our server didn't check in on us too much, but it wasn't difficult to get anything we needed. TL;DR - pizza is a little softer than I prefer but still good read more

The place was pretty quiet on a Sunday noon, so we had no problem getting a table. -wood- fire Napoletana pizza: dough was good and chewy, the pizza had good flavor as well. - carbonara: a little peppery but tasty. It used traditional ingredients, which was a nice change from the Americanized versions you usually find. -vodka pasta: this was okay. It wasn't as creamy as what I'm used to; I've had better ones. -tiramisu: delicious, it didn't have a very strong coffee liqueur flavor. Overall, we enjoyed the food, but there wasn't anything that particularly stood out. read more

My daughter is obsessed with their penne, alla vodka! So we come here often now and we love it. I wish they would expand and get a bigger restaurant and offer more appetizers and bread before the meal. Tried the pizza last time and it's yummy and very authentic. The main waitress is wonderful and sweet but there was a new gal last time who seemed grumpy so that was a bit of a bummer but we'll continue to come for the vodka sauce! read more

Very good pizzeria with an authentic Italian feel. We recently got 2 pizzas and a pasta. Everything was excellent except for the Margerita pizza which was good but not great. So knocked down 1 star for that. It used to be better so Im hoping they can go back to how they used to make it a couple of years ago. read more

Pretty lowkey Italian restaurant. Friend shared their carbonara was pretty good and it did not disappoint! The Napoletana pizza was also great! The space is pretty small but by dinner time had plenty of customers! Good service too. read more

This pizzeria is one of the few in South Bay to mark AVPN authentication (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana). a friend introduced me to this place over 10+ years ago, the pizza was so memorable back then and I was delighted to be in the area recently and see it's still around! We were a walk-in at 8pm on a Friday night w party of 3 people, seated right away and there were still others streaming in filling up all the tables. It's a small, simple restaurant (no frills) w a single dining room and closes early at 9pm. There was only 1 dedicated server + the owner bringing out food, yet we were able to order promptly and food came out quickly. For 3 adults, we ordered the following: Salad: INSALATA NOCI E GORGONZOLA (WALNUT AND GORGONZOLA) Radicchio, Belgian endive, dried cranberries and arugula topped with gorgonzola and walnuts in a homemade apple cider vinaigrette dressing. - ordered this tossed in very LIGHT dressing, and they actually tossed it lightly (unlike so many American restaurants) - it was wonderful! generous portion even for sharing, took 1/2 home in takeout box so we wouldn't fill up too fast before mains. Pasta: CARBONARA Spaghetti with pancetta, egg, parsley, parmesan and extra virgin olive oil. - the pasta here is all cooked al dente by default, so you don't need to worry about requesting this. it's really flavorful without being completely soaked in soupy cream like many Americanized pastas tend to be ruined in. 2 Pizzas (12" diameter, 8 slices each), ate 1 1/2 while bringing 1/2 home in takeout box): NAPOLETANA Tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, Italian homemade sausage, basil and extra virgin olive oil. - this was easily the best dish of the night, so classic and easy one of their most popular items on the menu recommended by our server; SO SO GOOD! BIANCA AL PROSCIUTTO Fresh mozzarella and garlic topped with Parma prosciutto and arugula (no tomato sauce). + added anchovies for $4, they were a wonderful addition! We also added a chilled bottle of Moretti (shared among 2 ppl to not overstuff ourselves while already having so much carbs) halfway through dinner which was a perfectly crisp type of light and popular Italian beer to accompany the savory sensations in our meal. *** The only drawback would be if you are bringing someone more elderly to the restaurant, know that there's 1 single restroom in the very back and you need to weave yourself through their kitchen which has uneven flooring, thick rubber holed mats and staff working in the walkway. Children and seniors may need to be accompanied, and if you're standing outside the restroom waiting, there's really not much space as one of the dishwasher machines is smack right in front of the door. Other than this logistical heads up, really enjoy the food here and appreciate how it's so classic, low-key and non-stuffy amidst all of the newer trendy hyped places in Silicon Valley. read more

Came in for dinner a week ago. Ordered fried calamari, Caesar salad, two pizzas and a pasta. Favorite dish was the pasta. Everything was flavorful. This restaurant has a nice lively ambiance but seating is limited. If you have a party larger than 6 people, space may be limited. read more

Terrific, authentic and very delicious pizza. It's a small, quaint space but was bustling when we went on a Sunday night for dinner. We got two of their veggie pizzas and a salad all of which was super satisfying. Very light on the stomach too which I appreciate a lot. Will definitely be back to taste more of their offerings. read more

**this is a true 3.5 stars but I have rounded up** I have tried pizza in Naples, Italy and man oh man one of the pizzas we got so much like authentic Napoli pizza! Specifically the Del Carcerato - amazing amazing amazing! I would give that pizza 5/5. It was incredibly thin, light amount of tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and basil. The best part was the ricotta stuffed crust -- that was a game changer! This must be eaten immediately. Try to not order it to-go and have at home. There is something about having it fresh and a bit on the pipping hot side (esp. on a cold day/night). We got the Cappellaccio as well, but it was not my favorite despite it being a thin pizza with mozzarella, mushrooms, and basil. I was so floored by Del Carcerato, that anything else would not have had that wow factor at that moment. I would give this pizza 3/5. Price for each pizza came out to $25 including tax. To me that is pretty steep given these are personal sized pizzas, but also give its in the Mountain View area, you would need to be ready to pay those prices (I guess). Staff & Ambiance: Staff was attentive and friendly. Ambiance was more on the romantic-low-light environment. I went on a mom date with our kids so that threw a different vibe but everyone was very sweet to our excited kiddos. :) The taste of the pizza, staff, and ambiance puts this review at 4/5 but the price pulls that down to a 3.5/5. read more

I went here this weekend to celebrate my birthday. Super cozy, cute little pizza shop in Mountain View. The only hard part was to take pictures. The food is super delicious , freshly made, and you can't stop eating. They definitely hold the standards very high. Since I went with all girls, I'll definitely be back with my family. My kids loved the leftover pizza. It's a family business, super friendly staff. read more

Can I say that I just love this restaurant? Myself and 2 other friends always meet here and it's our regular spot when we get together. The waitress is the sweetest and knows us. I enjoy supporting a local business and not a chain. I love that there is plenty of parking and everything we ordered off the menu is good. The penne alla vodka we always have to order, the best. The pizzas are all very good but we get the prosciutto and fungi usually. My friend made me a lovely dessert trifle for my birthday and our waitress even refrigerated it for us. At the end of the night, my sweet friend gave the trifle to the wait staff and kitchen to take home (this is why she's my sweet friend, so generous!) Support this gem of a restaurant! It's a small place and it gets busy! We usually go early. read more

Best Napolenta style pizza I've had in the US. Our goto spot for Italian. The dough is stretchy, holds up under wet toppings, addictively chewy. The dough has been appropriately fermented and the oven is hot. They put enough red sauce. We always get sausage and mushroom. It's juicy, salty but not too salty, and basil is punchy. Also got margherita which didn't taste plain. Pastas have good bite and sauces are well balanced. It's a smaller restaurant so expect a wait on weekends. read more

Amazing napoleon style pizza with pretty decent value, especially given the area that it's in. The pizza has the right amount of toppings and the brick oven gives it that perfect char flavor to the edges. Can get a bit warm because the oven is in the back of the dining room. But great place if you're looking for something quick and delicious. read more

5 stars for pizza! 5 stars for fried calamari, lightly battered and crunchy. 1 star for pasta, we ordered carbonate. It was the worst carbonara we ever had. Salty and watery. We sent it back and they kindly removed it from the bill. 2 stars for salad because of excessive dressing. Arugula was all saggy, drenched in dressing. Most definitely return for more pizzas! read more

We had a wonderful time, the food is amazing and Corey and our server was so friendly and attentive. Definitely stop here!

I heard people raving about this place. I've to agreed the pizza was pretty good but I expected more. Probably because I like thin crust even though the crust is very fresh as well as the ingredients. I'd say both Fungi and Prosciutto were very good. The pasta was pretty good as well. Al dente and good sauce. read more

I've been wanting to try Napoletana Pizzeria ever since we saw it on the VPN list for certified pizzas. We stopped by for lunch on a Saturday, and it was surprisingly quiet with only 3 tables filled with customers. We ordered a Margherita pizza, fettuccine bolognese, and calzone. The pizza was really tasty! It was super thin crust with a chewy edge. The calzone was filled with a ton of ricotta cheese and had barely any marinara sauce on top. The fettuccine bolognese had plenty of tiny meat chunks. The fettuccine was flavorful even though there was no sauce. Overall, the food is good. I'd recommend customers to stick to the pizza menu. There is no kids menu, or any coloring for young kids, too. read more

We enjoyed this local spot for pizza, salad, and beer on a spontaneous Friday night. It's in a small strip mall on El Camino and kind of a nice change to Castro Street. The pizza was tasty and made right there in their brick oven. I recommend eating in vs takeout as I could see the crust could get soggy if not eaten right away. The Caesar salad was good and fresh and made to share for two. Service was friendly and very efficient. Not a big place so it was full when we went on Friday night with just a 5 minute wait. I can see us coming back to try some of their pasta dishes. The spaghetti and meatballs looked huge! read more

Cozy little place where the pizzas are always so good - you can just tase the freshness of the tomato sauce and dough. Can easily eat a whole pizza by myself, probably more than 1 in fact. Calamari and caesar salad were also good, but nothing to write home about. It's all about the pizzas here. My picky 12-year old son refuses to eat any pizza that's not dominos, and even he finished his pizza lol Service was slow last night but understandable given the Sat evening dinner rush. One of the servers seemed new and probably forgot that you're supposed to leave the drinks on the table when clearing dishes. My son (the one whose pizza palate is trained strictly on dominos) got thirsty while we waited 15 mins for the check But the servers were hustling and doing their best given that there was a line out the door. And it's overall a great little gem from just the tasty pizzas alone. And I like that my son can diversify his pizza cravings from just cheap dominos! read more

This restaurant is very close to my house and I never noticed it because it is tucked next to the World Market. What a little gem of a pizza restaurant. We started with a radicchio, endive, arugula salad with walnuts and cranberries. It was delicious with just the right amount of dressing , not too tangy with a hint of sweetness. We had the pizza with house made sausage and mushrooms. Under carriage was good. A bit runny in the middle because of the mushrooms. Nice chewy dough , definitely an artisan pizza . The only thing is that I wish it had more spice from the sausage. read more

3.5 stars from me. 3 stars for the food plus an extra half star for the wonderful customer service. I might have rated this place a little higher if I actually ate at the restaurant but I ordered pizza and pasta to go. By the time I arrive home, the food was lukewarm and perhaps wasn't as tasty as it would have been if I ate there. The pizza toppings were simple and fresh but the taste of the pizza didn't knock my socks off either. Their Fettuccine Alla Bolognese was ok. The waitress was very nice. Quaint and inviting atmosphere. Pizza came out in a timely fashion. read more

I eat takeout at this restaurant more ways than one! I'm embarrassed to admit but it's just too good! The Neapolitan pizza here makes me imagine how the pizza in Italy tastes like! My favorite pasta are the Capellini alla Checca and Rigatoni Alla Pasqualona. Both dishes even taste good as leftovers as long as you mix it up when you heat it up again. I primarily get take out but when I dine in, the restaurant can get busy. My server Angelique was amazing and accommodating despite how busy it is! The restaurant is located in a plaza that can get lost since it's a smaller space but great find when you find the time especially after shopping in the area :) read more

Pizza was amazing - crust was thin enough to my liking while the crust was crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside (and one of them had cheese inside)! calamari was well seasoned and delicious.

Very delicious, love the pasta and pizza here. Pizza cooks so fast and ambiance is cozy. Recommend!

The napoletana pizza was good while it's warm. But the left overs were chewy. Also, we had the linguini in white sauce. No taste! I thought it was a joke. Although the pasta was cooked al dente, beyond that it's nothing to rave about. Service was fine and tucked away in this little shopping center. Parking was not an issue. Meanwhile, will keep on finding the best napoletana around. read more

Love this place! True VPN thin crust pizza. Flavors are awesome, but I do like Terun better (located in Palo Alto). The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, so we like to do take out/to go. For kids, the margherita pizza is a hit! I tried the salsiccia e funghi and that one was my favorite. Runner up for me was the Bianca al prosciutto. We did take out and hung out with the kids at the local Cuesta park and that was perfect. Warning: definite possibility of eating an entire pizza since it's so darn good! When we are in the Mountain View area, we make sure to schedule our errands around this place :). read more

Stuffed into a plaza next to World Market, I almost walked past the restaurant. It's a small space but it doesn't feel cramped. Really cool to see the woodfire oven at the end of the restaurant. The waitress was nice and attentive. I got the mushroom and prosciutto pizza.The pizza itself is good. I really liked the burnt parts of my crust. It was chewy, soft, but somehow still firm. The tomato sauce was balanced and I really enjoyed the toppings. A very simple yet well made pizza. I'd come back! read more

Pizzas were very wet underneath. Very disappointed. They used to be good. Pasta was ok, but too oily.
