Been there mostly for coffee or some small drinks for evening catch ups with friend & was always tend to go back because the barista Lukas really brought us Italian hospitality at the table eventho he is Brazilian.
But today we went downstairs & had real Italian gastronomic experience in this small restaurant(all of them blind ordered recommended by Otelo) living Dublin more than 5 years this was one of the best food experiences I have had & thank you guys for serving us & THANKS to chiefs! you know how to rock!

To be honest we tried to get into another Italian eatery first but couldn’t therefore we ended up here by default and that was lucky for us.
As you enter you soon realise there are two parts with a cafe upstairs and a restaurant downstairs seemingly two separate businesses.
We were lucky to get a table secured for an hour and a half between bookings.
Very nice downstairs space:
Good looking menu choices.
Food very good. Hot and tasty.
Nice wine too.
We all shared one desert 🤣🤣
Not too pricey.
Good toilets too.
Recommended 😁🏴🇮🇳

I ate upstairs and the staff were lovely. I had a premade sandwich and a glass of wine- both were gorgeous and id return. My only gripe was the gruff attitude from the maitre di downstairs. Really not acceptable to act so gruff with customers, I'm assuming cultural differences but he could learn a thing or two. Staff upstairs couldnt have been nicer.

Café di Napoli is the best Italian restaurant in Dublin. We are always well served and the food is absolutely delicious. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.

A friend suggested to meet for lunch here, he was familiar with the place and liked it. Food was nice and the place was busy but we had a dour waiter which took the shine off the place for me. His tip suffered as a result.

On route to the theatre had a gorgeous authentic Italian meal with my wife. Staff were very polite and attentive. From the outside it looks like a very small restaurant but downstairs opens to a much larger space with the kitchen staff cooking on view. Highly recommended.

Nunca he estado antes. No veo la hora de volver. Esto es una joya. El ambiente era fantástico abajo. El personal era encantador. La comida, la mejor que he probado en mucho tiempo en Dublín. Chicos, lo que sea que estén haciendo, sigan así. Honestamente la comida era divina, fresca, llena de sabor y muy buen tamaño de porción. El vino era excelente y en cuanto a eso Tiramasu 10 / 10. ¡Gracias!

Reservamos este restaurante ya que las críticas fueron muy positivas en general. Personalmente me encanta la comida italiana y he estado en Nápoles, donde he disfrutado de una de las mejores cocinas de mi vida. Mis expectativas eran quizás demasiado altas. Pedimos bruschetta y calamares como entrada - decente. La mayoría de nuestra mesa pidió diferentes platos de pasta - porción no era inmensa, pero la calidad era totalmente correcta. La gran decepción para mí y mi pareja fue la pizza de 4 quesos que pedimos. Lamentablemente, debo decir que era una pizza muy deficiente: el queso era deficiente, casi sin gorgonzola (que es mi favorita) ; la masa de pizza estaba lejos de ser nutritiva (demasiado delgada) y la pizza cocinada en horno normal, no en horno de leña, lo que hace una diferencia crucial. Esta no era una pizza real como podemos encontrar en Nápoles o en muchos restaurantes italianos en toda Europa.
Los camareros eran muy profesionales y atentos. Buen servicio en general. Debido a las pizzas de calidad inferior, doy 3 estrellas.
