Unbelievable experience, I'd just gotten engaged earlier in the evening and our favorite date night spot is Osteria Tulia. The food is always great and tonight was the best service I've ever received at a restaurant. We usually go to Tulia Steakhouse after we eat but by the time we finished dinner they were closed. Long story short, our server Kamira, actually walked up the street to get the desert my fiancé loves. One of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had, now a customer for life. Truly, thank you. read more

Me, my mom, and my younger brother ate here today. Mike was our server. He was just the right amount of attentive and quick with requests! The food was filling and very good. There is a lot of seating! Not to mention but we still got seated even though we were 20 minutes early to our reservation. Would go back! read more

Yes, on a Tuesday night after New Year on Fifth Avenue in Naples the restaurants are jamming! Reserved a table for 7:15 and yielded for the first available. The outdoor dining was packed as was indoor but right on time we were seated indoors at a nice 4 top. We were immediately greeted by our server, ordered some drinks, and was delivered a bottle of water while we waited for our drinks and to order. Very good selection of wines and the pour on my Woodford Reserve over ice was quite generous as were the pours of wine (Super Tuscan and Sauvignon Blanc). Off to a great start! We skipped appetizers and went right to the entrees. There were 3 of us and the orders requested were: Roasted Chicken Roasted Potato, escarole, cipollini, sage & salsa verde Heritage Berkshire Pork Chop Roasted root veggies, potato puree, cherry gastrique, scallions and, Local Snapper (Yellow Snapper, we asked) Potato mousseline, charred broccolini, caviar beurre blanc, chive oil & dill Oh my! I had the Pork Chop and cooked medium well, NOT dry, and was sitting atop a potato puree with a most wonderful and delicious dark sauce (cherry gastrique). It was D E L I C I O U S and I just love a great tasting dark sauce which compliments the meal. This was a home run for me. The 2 other home runs were the Snapper and the Roasted Chicken. So many choices for restaurants in downtown Naples on Fifth so if you have the chance, check out Osteria Tulia. I hope you will be as happy as we were. Enjoy! PS...nothing to take home. We ate everything!! read more

We always enjoy the Tulia experience and this time lived up to that comment. This date was Pre-Valentines Day because this guy will pass on the crowds and inflated prices. Our always-favorite grilled octopus app is what got us hooked in the first place. Would help any and all to preview the menu because of the variety of dishes offered. read more

We had a really nice dinner with a group of 7 of us at Tulia. We were seated inside near the center of the restaurant - the round table was really nice for the group to converse. Our server and the serving assistants were excellent. She was very friendly and accommodating. My food was delicious - I had some of the warm bread with eggplant caponata (so good!) and the Agnolotti del Plin - it was fantastic. Everyone seemed to really enjoy their meals. They were able to accommodate vegan and gluten-free members of our party as well. The portion sizes are really reasonable, and the food came out quickly, especially considering the size of our group. One small suggestion I make to anyone who does not have zero-proof cocktails available - there are canned and bottled Negroni and Spritz options you can serve that are a nice touch if you do not wish to add zero-proof cocktails to your menu (but you're missing out on $ if you don't, IMO!) I still enjoy a nice mixed beverage even if I don't drink alcohol, and when I'm out with a group I love to order something other than water or a diet soda. I know my other NA friends feel the same. One small complaint was that it was a little tight in the packed restaurant and I for one was backed up against someone at a hightop and kept bumping into her even though I was barely moving and it was probably driving her crazy. Also small note, but the music choice was weird and the vibes were off. It was like semi-recent pop music after 7pm in a dimly lit Italian restaurant - I feel like lots of musical options would make more sense (everyone at the table noticed it at some point). But all that said, we had a delicious meal and lots of fun, and we would come back! The outdoor patio seating looked like a really great option, as well. read more

I'm giving this a 4 instead of a 5 because of our experience. So, I brought my mom and brother to Naples for their very first visit and we decided to stop here for lunch. It was a hot day so we decided to sit inside. The host greeted us promptly and got us seated quickly. Our server brought us waters, shared the specials, and took our orders as soon as we were ready. My mom and I ordered the beet salad while my brother ordered the Classico pizza. When they came out, the manager ran them to the table. She then asked if we would like Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes for the pizza.. I said yes so she brought them over. This is when it all went haywire. She was wearing a poncho, spun around after dropping off the pizza toppers, and the poncho basically knocked over the bottle of oil INTO MY PURSE that was sitting on the empty chair. The manager stayed and was working on wiping everything down, but pretty much all of the contents of my purse were covered in oil. I was holding it all in because I was very unhappy. My mom was wiping things down, too and food was getting cold. It definitely put a damper on the whole experience. The manager did comp our meal, but It just didn't turn out to be an enjoyable experience AMD I had to go home and was all of the contents of my purse along with the purse itself. Otherwise, I would still go back because everything else was great. I just will make sure to leave my purse in the car! read more

In Italy, an osteria is a place to drink wine with friends, that incidentally has food. Tulia is true to this spirit, except that the incidental food is really good! The pasta and pizza are among the best in town. Service is attentive and friendly. The feel is rustic Italian osteria but with a lot more people and a lot more energy. read more

Came in on a Wednesday night around 6 PM and was sat fairly quickly. The restaurant itself is very cute with great evening, lighting and music. There was great service in terms of the cocktails coming out super quick however this place would benefit from maybe free bread. The pasta was cooked great and made in House! Highly recommend stopping in for dinner read more

Osteria Tulia - Agnolotti del Plin - Italian Near Me - Naples, Florida

Osteria Tulia is one of the many Italian restaurants on 5th Avenue. I was vacationing here on a weekend, and came here with a few friends. Where I was sitting, the restaurant is very bright during the day. The windows bring in the direct light and I was facing it. We received menus and there was a Summer special menu. Can't remember if it was just for lunch. Pick 1 appetizer and 1 entree from a set list for $35. I picked the beef tartare and the garganelli. Both a complete letdown. The beef tartare came out and it was definitely the most tasteless and bland beef tartare I have ever had. Usually a favorite appetizer of mine, I did not finish it. Next, the garganelli. Great presentation. Came out very hot. The pasta dish comes with lamb neck and sheep cheese. It wasn't a hit with me. It was only ok. I would've enjoyed this dish more with another protein option. It was a great size for lunch though. Enough to have leftovers for the next day. While I enjoyed the price point, the items I ordered did not wow me to come back. read more

We had a late-night New Year's Eve reservation at Tulia on 5th, and it was the perfect way to ring in the year. The menu was exactly what we were looking for, and the food choices were varied and all excellent. It was truly one of the best meals we've had on 5th Avenue. What really made the night was the exceptional staff. Our server, Kamira, was fantastic! She was attentive and professional from start to finish but was so easy going and gave us great recommendations. Even with the NYE weather, the outdoor atmosphere was very comfortable. They had heaters for warmth, and we really appreciated the staff member walking around specifically to see if anyone needed blankets. It's those thoughtful touches that make a place stand out. As it got closer to midnight, everyone moved inside to watch the Times Square coverage on the TVs. WHY CNN!! NO!! We all shared a champagne toast at midnight, which created such a great energy. Between the top-tier service and the cozy setup, it was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend read more

We've been trying to explore the Naples downtown restaurants more, since we usually just keep going to the same places over and over again. Osteria Truilia was a really great find for dinner on a chilly November night. They had their heat lamps on, so we still opted to sit outside...it's very loud and cozy inside, and we figured we'd be able to hear each other better outside. Our waiter, Brandon, was outstanding. Service was exceptional. We started with wine and cocktails and the Arancini. Delicious! Then I had the Cacio & Pepe which was perfect...creamy, well-seasoned with a portion not too big nor too small. My friend tried a different pasta dish and we both cleaned our plates. We also had some Tiramisu for dessert and the flavors were amazing. Overall, we were very pleased and will go back to try the Seafood Risotto. read more

Came here for lunch and got some pizzas and a Caesar salad. The pizzas were nothing special, and I thought the sauce and crust were both heavily lacking in flavor. The service was also alright, we went a while without refills and the service was on the slower side. Overall it's a super convenient restaurant if you're shopping on fifth ave, but I can't say I'd recommend the food. read more

Welcome back yall to another evening of Shubacca's reviews: Food: I had one of tonight's special which was tortellini stuffed with veal. Sounds good, right? Well im hear to say...this was nothing to write home about. 1) it was Luke warm at best and 2) it lacked zest. Just no flavor profile what so ever. Their minor redemptive quality gets rescued by the bread. Which ...only the first basket is free. Every one served after...is an extra $4. Service: my uncle had to constantly ask for bread. And she misunderstood his and my aunts order. Then she had the nerve to think to get away with charging them based on HER mistake. No cap..she literally said..."well that's how I charge it." Ummmm..no mam! Ambiance: oak wood beams tavern vibe. Also loud because of a small cozy space. We all felt like we were shouting across a round table. Shubacca's review: this place was not TULIAgit to quit. read more

The service was amazing. Brandon, our server is truly the best. He made our experience here so good, wow! He knew the menu. Checked on us constantly. We had everything we needed throughout the evening. Food is incredible. We tried 2 appetizers. 2 different dinners. A great bottle of Italian wine. Cocktails to start with. The vibe there is the best. Sat outside and the people watching is phenomenal. It was busy but such a good atmosphere there. Highly recommend going there!!! read more

We ate here on a recent Thursday. We had a reservation for 4 at 6:15. Our server took our drink order, then we waited. She brought out one drink and we waited for the others. We started with the bread appetizer and the Sicilian meatballs. Both items were great. Nice addition to the meatballs was the currants. Our mains were half chicken,risotto, Osso Buco and agnolotti del plin. All were delicious, cooked well but the chicken and risotto were lukewarm warm at best. The restaurant is on the small side, they do have a bar. It is quite loud and there is definitely a lot of foot traffic when the patio is open. Overall a pleasant experience. Not for the faint of heart, $200 + with a non drinker and no bottle service. read more

Tulia is one of our favorites so I was surprised by the poor service received on Friday afternoon when we stopped in to the bar for happy hour. Not especially crowded but the bartender was forgetful and inattentive. We placed an order that she screwed up and then had everything come out at the same time. Salads, pasta and pizza dropped in front of us all at once. No pacing? Very odd, she doesn't seem like she will last long at Tulia without stepping up her game and making sure an experience goes more smoothly. read more

Excellent service! Cesar Salad, Classico pizza and tiramisu!!!! Perfect for a date night with a glass of wine !!!

Pasta made in house was so good. We had pizza and artichoke ravioli was light fare. and meatballs and spaghetti. It's a little busy but that didn't effect our meal just not a quiet dinner read more

Pretty good Italian food, the squash blossoms were wonderful. The pizza was ok and the pasta dish was very good. We also had the tiramisu and pistachio cheesecake both were good as well! My favorite was the pistachio cheesecake! We ordered carrot as it was too congested with traffic in the area to park and there was no seating at the restaurant either due to the crowds, we ate there on a Sunday. read more

We ate here for lunch a while back, but decided to try it for dinner. The service and the food were both excellent. We had a reservation and were seated quickly at a nice table outside. Our waiter greeted us and introduced himself and offered us drinks. They have a sizable wine list with many by the glass, as well as a nice list of craft cocktails. The drinks arrived quickly, and he introduced us to the specials and answered several questions about the menu. My wife got the Michelle pizza and I ordered the veal chop. Both were delicious. The pizza was flavorful, hot, but possibly just a little undercooked. The veal chop was divine - bone-in, tender, very lightly breaded with mozzarella and a little red sauce. Osteria is a great place for Italian dining in Naples. read more

Food and service both were terrible. Today, being Valentine's Day thought we would try this place based on the positive reviews. Well it was the worst dining experience I've had in years. The food might as well be frozen because it came out lukewarm and was not fresh. We ordered the Cappelletti, talk about bland and lacking in any creativity. The waiter couldn't care less about giving us any attention even to refill our water pitcher as automatically adding 20% gratuity. I normally would be fine with this but he did not deserve not even 10%. We will never dine here again and I would recommend going elsewhere. read more

Came here twice on vacation with my wife. Nice space and vibe, excellent food, and they can modify to your taste and needs. Excellent cocktails. Our server, Jennifer, was the bomb! Professional, personable and made sure we were well-cared for. Even the owners are on their game, greeting each table, and even busing tables as needed! I'd go back any time! read more

Osteria Tulia - Italian Near Me - Naples, Florida

Amazing experience Sunday night at Tulia! We sat in the back in front of the kitchen which was fine by me- our kids were tired and can be loud and we were just happy to be seated right away & last minute without reservation on 5th. I had the FraDiavolo- and it was hands down the best I've had in all of my life and it's my favorite dish. I will be dreaming about it until I can return. The eggplant caponata with the bread is incredibly deep and complex and such a delight. It's the perfect example of simple ingredients with the correct technique becoming something amazing. The Caesar was flavorful and delicious- and anchovies are a must for us, so we were happy the restaurant offered them. We also had the kids spaghetti and meatball which was great and a couple of pizzas which were also amazing! Our server was a pretty young brunette and I didn't catch her name, but she was incredibly sweet and attentive and was as ideal a server can get- sneaking away used dishes or napkins here and there or refilling our waters immediately- almost unnoticed. She was knowledgeable and always keeping an eye out to make sure we had anything we needed. She had great timing and wasn't laggy about coming around and dropping the check- it was perfectly executed. Hands down a wonderful meal made so much better by our server- and I'll be returning every time I'm in Naples and hoping to have her! read more

Excellent food and service on our visit! We made a reservation the same day, and they only had 2 time slots available: either 6:15 or 8:15. We chose the earlier time and when we got to the restaurant they were packed. We sat outside and loved the vibe of the place. Our server was friendly, helpful, and efficient. Hubs ordered Ceasar salad and a pizza. I ordered the Lobster Ravioli. Our server offered to split the salad for us, which was a nice touch! The salad was definitely large enough for two people to share. It was very good. I don't eat pork, but this salad had pancetta on it. I just picked it off and ate the salad anyway. Hubs loved it as-is with the pancetta. They brought the anchovies on the side so you could take as little or as much as you wanted. The salad was perfectly dressed and tasty. He really enjoyed his pizza, and it did look phenomenal. My lobster ravioli was very rich and full of flavor. It had plenty of lobster as well. Portion size was plenty. Based on our experience, we would definitely go back! read more
