    The apps. and entrees were very good and entree portions were generous. My only complaint is the confusing billing practices and a waitress that provided tenuous answers to questions on pricing and billing. When I inquired about two additional/"ghost" fees on the final bill, only one was removed and one remained. The waitress explained the remaining fee an "add-on" to an entree despite a lack of this info./description in the menu. Despite billing confusion, it was a rather pleasant experience in a family-friendly atmosphere.

    We had a bad experience here a few weeks ago, went to Cafe Napoli and told the owner there. We gave it another try tonight. The food was, as always, outstanding. Just so good! Our server was sweet, and accommodating, when we saw her. Which was not so often. We waited about 20 minutes for our bill. I wanted another glass of wine but didn't see her when I was done my glass. She wasn't upstairs most of the time so I don't know where she was. There were 2 other servers upstairs too, and the place was not that busy. We saw our busboy way more than we saw her. I really wish someone would step up there and take charge of the service. It's a problem.

    Very disappointed for the second time in a row. One dish came out COOL - not even warm. The person that brought it to the table was not the one who took the order - but this is what she said, "NOT SURE WHAT THIS IS OR WHO IT GOES TO". It was manicotti. We had to send it back. We complained to that person, who again was not the one who took our order, and her response was "we are short staffed and she usually just rings up the sales". We were advised that Timothy has gone to another restaurant and they are sort handed! As we are out dinner - in shifts since one dish had to go back - we saw two other tables having complaints - and "we are so sorry" being told to many. This WAS a favorite of yours for a long while - and we DID give it a second chance - but two times in a row of problems means we will move on to Cafe Verde - and they are expanding and that should be a concern to you. People in Wilmington are very well connected and word is getting out that Cantina di Napoli is not what it used to be. Upon leaving we heard our server CURSING out the chef!!! Guess his tips have been affected by lack of continuity in the kitchen.

    Best mussels we have enjoyed in a very long time, yummy!!! Veal scallopini, Bronzino stuffed with crab, veal piccata dinners were done to perfection! A little noisy, service was friendly, knowledgeable and prompt. All around lovely evening. Will definitely return for another delicious meal.

    WOW! Do not let being in a shopping center stop you from visiting here! There are so many restaurants in the Trolley Square area of Wilmington, that my boyfriend and I unfortunately overlooked this place for too long. The whole staff was accommodating and friendly. The prices were reasonable and portions were HUGE! If you go you HAVE to get the garlic knots! For only $4 we were expecting maybe 4-5 to split, but it was the biggest plate EVER and they were the best I've ever had. If you appreciate good, home cooked Italian - you have to visit!
