Limoncello - Naples

Had dinner tonight at Limoncello. The appetizers, main course, and desserts were all 10/10 and recommended by our amazing waitress Lindsay! Will be coming back again

Our dinner was fantastic! Our waiter Omar was very attentive and knowledgeable on the menu. You won’t be disappointed if you give this place a try!

Limoncello & the sunset was the perfect nightcap to our 48hrs in Naples, FL. The owners dream is to bring the Amalfi Coast food, culture & spirit experience through their murals, menu & music...and they delivered! We enjoyed bruschetta, chicken parm, short rib papardelle and their Sunday special gravy sauce. Every dish was deliciously soul satisfying. Thank you Jim for the exceptional service.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Limoncello, made even better by our server, Omar. He was warm, attentive, and knowledgeable—striking the perfect balance between professional and personable. His recommendations were spot on and his service elevated the entire evening. Thank you Omar for making our visit so enjoyable.

We dined at Limoncello four times in just two weeks—yes, it’s that good! From the moment you walk in, the warm and friendly service makes you feel like part of the family. The atmosphere is charming and lively, especially with the lovely live music they feature each evening from 6–9 pm. The food? Absolutely delicious. We couldn’t get enough of the pan-seared Branzino (a special that’s truly special), the rich and satisfying Tagliatelle Bolognese, and the classic Chicken Parmigiana—each dish better than the last. Don’t skip dessert! The Cannoli is fantastic, but the real showstopper is the Ricotta e Pistacchio: layers of sponge cake, ricotta, and pistachio cream, topped with crumbled pistachios and served with vanilla gelato. It’s heavenly. Limoncello has become our go-to Naples favorite—and we can’t wait to return!

Enrico, our server, was great, the singer was phenomenal and the food was outstanding. Thank you!

What an amazing experience me and my girlfriend just had. True Italian charm in this Amalfi coast inspired restaurant. The service was amazing, Omar was great and always available. The general manager, Riccardo, was the fantastic, he treated us like we were family. I recommend this place to anyone coming to Naples/Bonita Springs. Ciao 👋

We were married at Limoncello this year, and simply do not have enough words to express our gratitude for making our fairytale come true!! The restaurant, ambiance, service, food, and intricate detail was superb and absolutely top notch!! We felt we were amongst family and never had to worry about a thing. The Limoncello family never skipped a beat!! Thank you to each and every one of you, you are all quite remarkable and the Linders are forever grateful!

We had the absolute most beautiful rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding at Limoncello of Naples. As an Italian family, we wanted to put on a festive/great night for our friends & family, and the atmosphere, warmth and service we received was second to none. The management team and staff treated us so well and they were all genuinely so excited for us and the happy event we were celebrating. The food was also delicious!! We feel it’s the best/most authentic Italian food in the area, and the owner, Cosimo, did everything he could to ensure we had the best night, while even being out of the country & in a different time zone. There was live music that added to the ambiance and we made great memories dancing all together in the restaurant. We recommend Limoncello wholeheartedly and thank them for a night we’ll always remember! We can’t wait to all go back again soon.

Amazing service from Lindsey! This place is like a little piece of Italy in Florida, the owner is doing a good job. Excellent food and even better service from the whole staff. Please ask for Lindsey if you want an experience similar to ours. Her recommendation were 10/10

Great food and service! Amazing and incredible live female singer, Domine Clemons, on Wednesday nights.

Had an awesome family dinner at Limoncello. They accommodated 16 of us. The food is always on point from the apps to fresh pastas seafood and meats! The wine list has some great selections to choose from. We always enjoy celebrating here they make you feel at home like your part of the family. Grazie Mille per tutte!

We just came back from Positano last month and were so excited to find this authentic Amalfi coast Italian restaurant! We didn’t have a reservation but were able to get a high top in the bar area immediately. The service was impeccable. The pizza is 100% authentic - the diavola pizza tasted exactly like what we had in Rome and Positano. The pasta is absolutely incredible too! I loved my Italian sausage, red pepper pasta. The noodles were fresh and perfectly cooked. We can’t wait to come back to try more!

By far the best Italian restaurant Ive been to. The food is truly authentic and homemade. Tiramisu is out of this world and our waiter Omar was very personable and very good about making sure we had everything we needed. If you go, ask for Omar Giant portion of veal parm was to die for

We came for our daughter’s graduation dinner and Omar was absolutely an amazing server! Very polite and friendly and gave recommendations. Definitely will be here again!!!

Troy was a great waiter! Absolutely funny treated us with kindness and respect! Great conversation the food was amazing and left an everlasting impression! Thanks Troy for a wonderful evening of great Italian cuisine and great hospitality! Definitely recommend to anyone! Ps the bread is addictive

Omar is the best server! It was our anniversary and he made it such a great experience. He explained the menu with great detail and answered every question we had ! Was always checking in on us and gave great recommendations. Beat food we’ve ever had.

The Naples Lions Club held their Holiday party at Limoncello. We were welcomed and treated so well. The food was plentiful and delicious!! The wait staff could not have been better. What a beautiful atmosphere for a romantic dinner or a party. Thank you!

Lindsay was the best waitress ever! She made my dining experience so amazing, food was delicious, and the atmosphere was immaculate. I can’t wait to come back

Susie was one of the best servers we have had! She truly made our experience. Although, the food, drinks, and atmosphere were excellent as well. It was our first time here and we absolutely cannot wait to come back. If you’re thinking about it, COME! And ask for Susie! We have nothing bad to say about our experience here!

I have been to Limoncello Naples several times over the past few years, and it continues to be my go to Italian restaurant in Naples. It is a great go to spot for a nice night out during the week, and also my favorite place to bring friends who are visiting from out of town. The food is consistently excellent, the service is attentive, and the ambiance is exactly what you want for a great night out. The arancini are my go to appetizer. Perfectly crunchy with a really flavorful sauce. I always order the boscaiola ravioli, and it never disappoints. For dessert, the tiramisu is a must and my choice every time. Each time I visit, the food and service somehow get even better. I will absolutely continue coming back. Easily the best Italian spot in Naples.

Our server,Julian, was an exceptionally warm and welcoming. He delivered the list of specials with clarity and sincerity. Our food was perfectly prepared and authentically Italian! I loved the lively paintings around the room And the limoncello touches in the decor! And the live music was a beautiful touch that made the evening so much more of a memorable experience!!! We will return!

Such a special place. Wonderful music, incredible homemade Italian food. I have to give a shout out for the incredible service as well. We could not have been more fortunate than to have Julian. He had so many on spot recommendations & just the best vibe. We can’t wait to come back.

We had dinner at Limoncello tonight and were lucky enough to have Suzie as our server — and WOW. She wasn’t just good… she was genuinely exceptional. Her energy is warm, welcoming, and absolutely incredible. She knew the menu inside and out, gave the most spot-on recommendations, and checked in with us at the perfect times. She also handled everything with absolute professionalism, even when the restaurant got busy. Her timing, attention to detail, and friendliness turned our dinner into a genuinely memorable experience. People like Suzie are the reason we come back! Limoncello is incredibly lucky to have her. We love it there!!! ❤️ 🍋

The best meal we have had in a long time. The server was exceptional explaining the specials and making recommendations. We really enjoyed the music. The owner came out and was so welcoming. We heard it was good, but it exceeded all expectations.

Limoncello was the perfect choice for our wedding rehearsal dinner, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, the owner, Cosimo, made everything feel easy, personal, and stress-free. He was incredibly kind and attentive and went out of his way to make sure every detail was exactly how we hoped it would be. Cosimo worked closely with us and happily accommodated all of our special requests. He really understood what we were looking for and brought it to life beautifully. The way he decorated the room was stunning — elegant, intimate, and perfectly suited for such a special night. Walking in and seeing the space set up so thoughtfully was such a meaningful moment for us, and our guests commented right away on how beautiful everything looked. The food was absolutely delicious. Every dish felt authentically Italian, full of flavor, and prepared with so much care. From start to finish, the meal was a highlight of the evening, and many of our guests are still talking about how much they loved it. It truly felt like a warm, classic Italian dining experience. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made everyone feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout the night. As a couple in the middle of wedding events, it meant so much to be able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing everything was handled seamlessly. Our rehearsal dinner at Limoncello was more than just a meal — it was a special, memorable evening that set the tone for our entire wedding weekend. We are so grateful to Cosimo and the entire team for creating such a wonderful experience. We would recommend Limoncello without hesitation for a rehearsal dinner, celebration, or any special occasion. It’s a place we will always remember fondly.

I have been there many times for dinner and it never disappoints. Tonight our food was excellent, as always , and our server, Enrique was wonderful. He was witty, professional and went above and beyond to assist my husband with his dietary restriction. We look forward to our next dinner there.

My friend treated me to a special birthday dinner at Limoncello last night. It was a first time for both of us. Our server. Lyndsey, was fantastic. She was well versed in the menu, extremely personable and attentive. The food was fantastic. In Naples we have a lot of choices when it comes to Italian food and I have been to many. After last nights experience I would put Limoncello at the top of my list. I will definitely be back!

Third time at the resturant. Our server Julian was wonderful, the food was delightful with the exception of our dessert, I felt it was too sweet, however er last time when I had the tiramisu it was perfect. The live music is always a delightful touch. You feel transported right from when you step through the door. And with the message from the owners in the menu it invites you to a family so you walk away full and comforted. Highly reccomend as someone who typically doesn't like Italian food.

This has become my favorite restaurant, full stop. Every dinner here has been outstanding with elevated and attentive service. The food is remarkable and there are always interesting specials. The wine list is extensive. If that's not enough, Cosimo's energy radiates throughout the restaurant and he often stops by to make you and your guests feel extra special. We have been with our kids as well and they are always welcomed and we feel like family while we're there. Thank you to Cosimo and the entire staff for a wonderfully reliable meal.

Julian, our server, offered great advice regarding wine, (Chianti) appetizer (birrata), meal and dessert options. He was attentive, friendly and remembered us from the last time we were there. My husband had the osso bucco which was excellent, I had the ravioli with veal - also excellent! We finished our dining experience with an espresso and the best chocolate martini ever!!! We will be back!!! Oh, and, the owner stopped by the table to check on us. It’s definitely one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in the Naples area.

Choosing Limoncello for our wedding rehearsal dinner was one of the best decisions we made, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the very first conversation, Cosimo made us feel completely at ease and genuinely cared about making the evening special for us. Cosimo was incredibly accommodating and thoughtful with every request we had. He paid attention to even the smallest details and transformed the room into a beautiful, welcoming space that felt both elegant and intimate. Seeing everything set up so perfectly when we arrived was truly special, and our guests immediately commented on how lovely the atmosphere was. The food was outstanding. Every course was flavorful, authentic, and clearly made with care. It felt like a true Italian meal, and everything from the appetizers to the main dishes was enjoyed by everyone at the table. We’re still hearing from friends and family about how delicious the dinner was. The service throughout the night was exceptional. The staff was warm, attentive, and made sure everything flowed smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the evening without worrying about a thing. During such a busy and emotional weekend, that level of care meant so much to us. Our rehearsal dinner at Limoncello was not just a dinner, but a memorable celebration that we’ll always look back on fondly. We are so thankful to Cosimo and the entire team for creating such a wonderful night and would highly recommend Limoncello for any special occasion or event.

My wife and I had an unplanned weekend getaway to Naples, FL in September. Upon our arrival, we had the pleasure of dining at Limoncello, and it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! The moment we walked in, the hostess greeted us with a warm, inviting demeanor, coupled with the restaurant’s charming décor. The best part was that a violinist was playing fantastic melodies. Brad, our server, provided exceptional service from start to finish. He was attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu and offering great recommendations. Polipo alla Griglia, grilled octopus, rosemary potatoes, kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, lemon salmoriglio, as an appetizer, grilled to perfection and bursting with flavor. For our main courses, I opted for Chilean Sea Bass, and my wife opted for Tagliolini alla Pescatora: octopus, shrimp, calamari, clams, mussels, garlic, white wine, cherry tomatoes, and Italian parsley. Both dishes were beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. I ordered short rib gravy to go with the mashed potatoes for my dish. Unfortunately, we were too full to try their desserts, but we’ll do so on our next visit. Overall, our experience at Limoncello was fantastic. The combination of delicious food, welcoming ambiance, and attentive service made it a memorable part of our trip. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Naples who is looking for an authentic Italian dining experience! We will definitely be back on our next visit!

Lindsay was our server and she was absolutely amazing!!! She really gave us a full experience recommended the best food and had such a wonderful personality it absolutely elevated the experience along with the amazing food. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere of the restaurant was so cozy and fun highly recommend.

Food was so good I thought I was back in Positano! Atmosphere was vibrant and inviting. Can be hard if background noise bothers you but I loved it. The service is what put it over the top and made it a dining experience. Enrique took great care of us. Can’t wait to return!! The icing on the cake was that I ordered a decaf espresso and that’s exactly what I got. That doesn’t always happen.

What a wonderful 1st time we had at Limoncello and it will not be our last! The staff and our waitor Enrico were so attentive and friendly, the atmosphere and live music added to the total experience and the food was out of this world good. I was skeptical going into the meal thinking it would just be another pasta dish, man I was wrong!!! HIGHLY recommend and promise you will leave full!!

As fairly regular visitors to Naples, we’ve enjoyed many of the area’s standout dining rooms over the years. One that had long eluded us—despite its reputation—was Limoncello. On a cool Sunday evening, its popularity was unmistakable: the restaurant was packed, a promising sign that we had finally made the right choice. We arrived early with hopes of a relaxed pre-dinner cocktail, though the bar was so crowded that standing room was the only option. Still, a talented live guitarist softened the wait and added a pleasant, convivial note to the evening. Once seated, the energy of the room became a double-edged sword; the buzz was palpable, but the elevated noise level made extended conversation with friends a bit of a challenge. Service, however, was a clear strength. Our server was personable and efficient, and the broader staff operated with polish and professionalism. The ambiance largely aligns with expectations for a lively Italian trattoria, though at moments it veers into the slightly cartoonish, and its strip-mall setting inevitably detracts from the sense of occasion. The meal itself was a study in contrasts. The Caesar salad—ordered by everyone at the table—was excellent, crisp, and confidently executed. The entrées that followed, particularly for my wife and me, were more subdued. Given Limoncello’s long-standing reputation, the dishes were simply good rather than memorable. Dessert, however, redeemed the final course: the cannoli was very well done and a satisfying close to the evening. Overall, Limoncello delivers a lively atmosphere, attentive service, and moments of culinary merit, but it doesn’t quite surpass the best Italian kitchens Naples has to offer. Still, under the right circumstances—and perhaps with different menu selections—it’s a restaurant we’d be willing to revisit to see if the experience can rise to its considerable buz

Absolutely wouldn't recommend it. We went to the early dining with friends Each of us had the Parmigiana di MelanzaneTagliolini as an appetizer which was tasty. I had the pesto e' gamberetti which was buried in a pesto cream sauce that was thick as paste, overly salty, with 4 shrimp. (shrimp were good but small). Ate the shrimp and left most of the pasta. My wife had the Chicken parmigiana which was very dry. Our friends had the Baccala all puttanesca, which I tried. It was smothered in salty, salty tomatoes olive capers sauce and was impossible to tell if you were eating fish or tofu. We decided to forego dessert. The place was busy and the tin ceiling made for a noisy environment. I won't be back. There is better Italian food to be had in Naples.

Response to the Owner And it's your attitude in your reply that will ensure I will never give your restaurant a second chance. I can’t tell you how many Italian restaurants I go to that I’m so disappointed in. This is another one. The calamari was chewy. The pasta was undercooked and the food overall was just not good. How I wish I could find one good Italian restaurant.

We booked a 4:45 PM reservation specifically because this restaurant advertises an Early Bird menu that runs until 5:00 PM. The reservation confirmation even referenced Early Bird dining as part of our reservation. We even arrived early at 4:40 PM, fully intending to order immediately off the Early Bird menu. Once seated, it took quite a while for our server to come by. When we asked about the Early Bird menu, we were told they stop handing it out about 10 minutes before 5:00 PM and that if we were eligible, we would have already received it. This policy was never disclosed when making the reservation, and we were seated well before the Early Bird cutoff. We arrived and checked in were seated 20 minutes before the Early Bird dining ended, and were still denied the menu. Despite explaining that we arrived early on purpose, we were still not allowed to order from the Early Bird menu. The server made a comment suggesting our drinks were “on him,” but we were charged for them on the final bill anyway, which felt misleading. We didn’t expect the drinks to be comped, but his comment implied that they would be to make up for the Early Bird dining issue. To add to the frustration, we split a pasta and a salad and were charged $7.50 in split fees ($2.50 for the salad and an additional $5 for the pasta). The menu only references a $2.50 split plate fee and does not explain that fees apply per dish or that pasta carries an extra charge. The waiter also did not mention anything about split fees when we said we were sharing our dishes. The food itself was good, but the experience overshadowed it. We planned carefully, arrived early, and still felt penalized. Between the Early Bird issue and the unexpected fees, it was a very disappointing visit, and we wouldn’t return based on this experience.
