Napolese Artisanal Pizzeria

I think Napolese offers THE best salads in the Midwest inspired by seasonal fresh healthy ingredients!!!! We took the extended family for dinner last week. We made reservations for 7 people and we received four reminders by phone and email, so we did not forget. The restaurant is upscale and not crowded on Friday night. I thought the chairs were uncomfortable but the food was so good that I quickly forgot about the chairs. Our 5 star server, Hunter, recommended salads and . We ordered the Carrot Sweet Potato Salad $13) the Vegetarian Chopped Salad $11) and the Arugula Parm Salad $11). It was great to see something other than romaine and croutons. All salads, artistically created, were unbelievingly fresh and tasty. We savored every bite of the generous servings. The salads were 5 star. For pizzas, we tried the BLT $15) the Smoked Salmon Pie $17) and Hamaker's Corner Pizza $15). The pizzas were interesting and 4 star, very good. I liked the BLT the best with goose jowl bacon, leeks and an Italian cheese. This pie quickly disappeared. The $80 bill was a bargain for feeding our group of seven. We went home with an entire pie worth of leftovers. I recommend for a great casual meal downtown with artistic fresh ingredients.

We finally decided to order takeout pizza from here after months of thinking about it we got the Classic and cacio e Pepe pizzas I gotta say some of the best ratio of toppings to ricotta/cheese in general I've ever eaten on a Napoleon style pizza! The crusts were a little burnt which made some slices harder to fully enjoy but other than that we loved it. The focaccia bread was TO DIE FOR I have been craving it ever since. Absolutely added to our list of future pizza options from now on!

All I have to say is YUM!!! Amazing place in downtown Indianapolis if you 're craving some good wood fire pizza. They have unique artisanal pizzas as well as a freestyle option, for the picker eaters. As for appetizers, Goat Cheese is the way to go (they serve it with plenty of bread which is a huge plus). The Margherita pizza is a must. The Asparagi Bianchi pizza is very unique; giving a roasted taste but with a sweet touch because of the balsamic drizzle on top. Great service food...what more could you ask for?!

Amazing wood fired pizza!! Love the flavors everything tastes so fresh and delicious!! I wonder why i did not visit this place earlier well my loss!! We tried the margherita pizzas with some customization (added mushrooms and roasted bell peppers) and the food was simply fabulous! The ambience is nice and bright and service was awesome and quick too.. will highly recommend if you are a fan of woodfired pizzas!!

Upon searching for restaurants downtown recently that aren't chains or steakhouses, we stumbled upon Napolese. Is this my favorite pizza in the city? Nope. Is this a good alternative to many of the other restaurants downtown? Yeah. Every time I've been here, I haven't had a pizza that I didn't like. Last night, I had the Boz's Pie pizza with sweet potatoes, goat cheese, brussels sprouts, and other cheeses. It was delicious. I've also had a variety of other vegetarian friendly pizzas and they haven't disappointed. If you're looking for a light pizza that isn't overly filling and doesn't make you feel like you consumed nothing but oils and fats, this pizza is for you. If you're looking for the delicious, cheesy, filling pizza that most Americans love, look elsewhere as you won't find that here. Good alternative to other restaurants in the downtown area, but not my go-to restaurant by any means.
