Highly recommended! All of the food was Amazing! And our server was Alex, who is also the head chef. He kept myself and my friends laughing through our entire meal. 10 Stars for food, service, and experience!! read more

After several days of Southern comfort food (and enough fried food to last me a while ), Napoli's was exactly what we were hoping to find. The menu is enormous and honestly rivals some of the Italian restaurants back home in Los Angeles. We were surprised to see entrées here that we don't even find at some of our favorite Italian restaurants in LA. Everything we ordered was beautifully prepared and fresh. The tortellini was rich without being heavy, the veal was perfectly cooked, and even the cannoli was outstanding. It felt like a restaurant that genuinely takes pride in its food. The highlight of the evening, though, was Alessandro. He shared stories, made us laugh, and immediately made us feel welcome. When my husband asked for ranch dressing with his salad, Alessandro smiled and said, "Welcome to Kentucky!" I guess he knew right away we weren't locals. What started as a search for a break from all the fried food around here turned into one of the best meals of our trip. If you're anywhere near Glasgow, don't miss this hidden gem. read more

I was excited to find an authentic Italian restaurant in Glasgow. The atmosphere was nice but casual. I was greeted at the door and seated immediately. Service was exceptional from a professional server. I ordered the 3 cheese manicotti. I love manicotti with its fresh ricotta. I got a tiny salad that wasn't much, but that was ok. The biscuits were ok. The manicotti was a huge disappointment. It was so loaded with mozzarella cheese that I couldn't taste any other flavors. It was almost just a pile of melted mozzarella cheese. It was hard to find the pasta under it. This was really disappointing and I couldn't eat much of it. This could be a great dish - maybe - with 1/4 as much mozzarella. Nobody needs that much cheese! It drowned out the entire essence of the entree. read more

Weve been several times as the food and service are always amazing. This time we got Alex who great as always.

Amazing food! All four dishes we got might have been the best I've ever had. Chicken parmigiana with Alfredo end probably the best but the regular ad well as lasagna we're 10/10 as well. Server was great! Helpful and on top of it all. Deserts were also amazing. Lemon cake was as good as any I have had. I will return! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Sitting unassuming along Happy Valley Road, Napoli's Italian Restaurant is Glasgow's answer to a classic, white-tablecloth trattoria. While the exterior might suggest a standard small-town eatery, the interior transforms into an intimate escape, complete with soft lighting and a warm, countryside charm that feels surprisingly sophisticated for Barren County.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Here is our experience based on a recent visit starting with our Appetizer: Stuffed Mushrooms, We began the evening with the Stuffed Mushrooms, a dish that sets a high bar for the rest of the meal. These aren't your typical breadcrumb-heavy fillers; instead, the silver-dollar caps are generously packed with a savory blend of crab meat and herbs, then bathed in a rich, velvety sherry pink sauce. The sauce is the real star--creamy with a slight acidic brightness that cuts through the richness of the seafood. It begs to be mopped up with a piece of their warm, house-made garlic rolls. For our main course, the Lobster Ravioli was an absolute triumph. The pasta arrived perfectly al dente, housing a delicate, buttery lobster filling. What elevates this dish above standard fare is the presentation; the ravioli are tossed with chopped tomatoes and fresh basil, then smothered in that same signature pink sauce found in the appetizers. It's a decadent, "more-is-more" approach to Italian dining that feels celebratory. The portions are notably large--typical of Napoli's reputation for value. We selected the Limoncello Mascarpone Cake for dessert.To cleanse the palate after a symphony of cream and garlic, the Limoncello Mascarpone Cake is essential. It's a light, airy sponge cake layered with a tart lemon mascarpone cream and finished with a dusting of white chocolate shavings. Unlike a heavy cheesecake, this dessert is refreshing and bright--a citrusy "exclamation point" at the end of a heavy meal. Napoli's succeeds because it doesn't try to reinvent the wheel; it simply polishes it. Between the attentive, friendly service and a menu that leans heavily into authentic, "made-from-scratch" flavors, it remains a hidden gem for anyone in the Somerset or Lexington area looking for a short drive to a high-quality meal. read more

A real gem! The food was delicious! I tried the lobster ravioli with pieces of lobster in the sauce. Loved it. My husband had the fruti di mari and is still talking g about how good it was! Service was excellent and the restaurant was very nice. We ate early so there weren't many people but they started coming in as we were leaving. If you are in the area, it is a must try!! read more

Went to dinner on a Tuesday night at 6 PM, Jan.6, 2026. Easy to find location with a moderately-sized dedicated parking lot for customers. Front entrance is easily accessible. There are a few parking spots that are on a steeper slope as you turn into the lot off of Happy Valley Road that might be challenging for some individuals with disabilities or mobility issues. More level spots are nearer the building. As you enter, there is a board that lists the daily specials. A friendly host asked if we preferred a booth or table. We opted for a table and were seated to the left in the main dining room. To the right of the main entrance is another dining room of similar size but it has a bar at the far end, a large table seating ten and fewer overall tables. I am not certain if that side also contains booths. The booths will seat four average-sized adults comfortably. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is fresh, clean and comfortable. Not too fancy so as to be stuffy but also not so casual as to be mundane and dull. It struck a nice balance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter was friendly and attentive without hovering or being intrusive. He answered all of our questions, gave us added time to order since one of our party of four arrived a few minutes later since he drove separately, and took down our orders quickly and efficiently. Water and soft drinks were served very quickly. None of our dinner party regularly consumes alcohol and we did not order any alcohol so I can't comment on the wine list. The food menu is extensive and has many of the usual items you would expect at an Italian restaurant but there were some interesting options as well that made for a very nice selection to choose from. The four entrees we ordered were Fettucchini Alfredo, Chicken Florentine, Chicken Arrabiata and Manicotti. Each entree came with a fresh mixed greens salad. The Caesar and Ranch dressings we had on the salads tasted homemade and were excellent. Along with a salad were freshly baked, hot knotted yeast rolls that were slightly chewy and delicious! As far as the four entrees we tried, all of them were prepared well, served hot and tasted great. We basically cleared our plates so that's a good indication of how much we enjoyed the food! The cream sauces were smooth, flavorful, rich but not overly rich or salty like other Italian restaurants often times can be when they're trying to compensate for a lack of flavor. The Chicken Arrabiata had a mildly spicy sauce that was also full of flavor and just the right amount of heat. The chicken had been pounded thin and likely pan seared, and while it tasted more than fine it was just a tiny bit overcooked and slightly dry imo. This was only a single very slight negative in an otherwise fantastic dining experience. Price was good for a meal of this quality. read more

Food was excellent and the service as well !!! The garlic bread was the best and also the spaghetti's and meatballs yummy

It is 10 miles East of I-65 (just north of Bowling Green), and well worth the drive! The service is friendly, attentive, and timely. The atmosphere is casual-intimate. It will suit dating couples, business associates, and families well. (Families, provided everyone knows how to use their indoor voice.) The food is wonderful! The sauces are light and flavorful. The meat & pasta cooked perfectly! I went with my best friend on a road trip and found this place on Apple Maps. We had stuffed mushroom appetizers, which were wonderful and they did not skimp on the crabmeat. The soup of the day was spinach & broccoli cream, which was buttery, but light. It was an excellent accompaniment to the homemade rolls! I had the pasta trio: lasagna, manicotti, and spinach ravioli in meat sauce. The meat sauce was delicious. (Next time I'll get the cream sauce on the spinach ravioli.) Yum!! My best friend had the Chicken Florentine on gluten free penne pasta. She said it was perfectly executed and perfectly balanced. "It's worth getting off the highway for!" read more

Overpriced food that was mediocre at best. Think of hot dogs on the grill, fresh fixings and steamed buns. Now think of gas station hot dogs. Yeah this is the gas station of Italian food. read more

Beautiful Italian restaurant that beats any I've had in bigger cities. It was so homey, the wait staff was wonderful, and the food was to die for. The marinara is bright, fresh, and acidic in the best way. I would have licked my plate if it wasn't such a nice business. Frutti di Mare was pricey but oh so worth the $28, 10/10 recommend the Alfredo sauce with it. Will make the drive here again and again. We regret not getting the tiramisu to go, it was gorgeous at the table next to us. read more

Okay so I read both reviews and the negative one definitely felt honest but I didn't want to cook tonight and I'm so over the same old places, so we decided to roll the dice. My husband got the Portabella Mushroom Ravioli and he said it was great, he did say the Alfredo had minced garlic in it which is different than he is use to but still very good. I had the Tortellini Alla Panna w/chicken and it was divine! It took me back to my favorite Italian restaurant where I would order this same thing.. food that can transport you to the past can be very powerful. The rolls were also very good. We also got the Tarmisu was amazing.. my husband doesn't eat dessert like ever and he ate a lot. To address the negative review, yes there are no white table cloths but the restaurant is decorated very nicely. About the wine, and them posting a picture of a rack of wine, yes they currently don't serve alcohol but that's due to liquor license taking awhile to obtain. They do have a nice little bar area that I'm sure they will have stocked with wine ASAP. So the "canned red sauce" comment.. we did not get anything with it but after trying my sauce I highly doubt the marinara is canned. Everything I saw come out looked very good definitely one of the best restaurants in Glasgow. I agree stock photos need to be switched out but thats an easy fix. We moved from Texas, I have a culinary degree and we eat upscale home cooked meals every night. So I feel like if you read the bad review and didn't go due to it, ignore it and try it.. very good and great service! Sorry for bad pics I used my daughters old phone to take them since my son was on my phone lol read more

My experience was great here. I thank Alex (owner) for providing a great meal and service for 9. One of the few real time Italian Restaurants in Kentucky. The menu is great with lots to choose from. Italian and German beer. Great selection for all courses. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was really good as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Am I a "hard" grader? Yes I am. Does this deserve the high rating? Yes it does. Aside from going to the NY/NJ region, you will be hard pressed to find equal quality. Lastly, the prices were good as well. Thanks for the meal, we will be back. This is a "diamond" in the rough. You don't expect to find quality like this in Kentucky. read more

Everything was excellent!! The food. The service. The ambiance. All of it! We started with a roasted pepper & potato soup that was one of the best soups I've ever had. The balance of flavor was just right! I had chicken parmigiana and my husband had the shrimp & chicken Dijon special. We both would get those selections again. He said he only wished for a few more shrimp and more mushrooms (he loves them). I tried the chicken and the flavor of the dijon sauce was so uniquely delicious. I got the tiramisu for dessert and it did not disappoint. The flavor was excellent. We will definitely be back! read more
