   If you love Tapas this is your spot. The wait staff were excellent and the food was delicious. We just got back from Barcelona and the food was on par with what we had there.

   Paella was lukewarm, dry and seafood seemed frozen, not fresh. One guest ordered skirt steak and received short ribs. Long, long wait for food beyond 35 minutes for paella with only 12 patrons. Bartender was very nice making drinks and serving tables while 8-10 employees walked around. I asked one employee what do you do here. Since he was a busboy and we were sitting with dirty dishes for 30-45 minutes, I asked him to pick up all the dirty dishes. We will NEVER go back. Spend your money elsewhere.

   Bodega OleResponded 1 day agoWe are sorry for your experience . Paella will always take 35 minutes since we do it from scratch with fresh ingredients. Now we will discuss your experience with all staff because we take all this very seriously. Will send you a private message so you can identify yourself and will make it up to you. Our apologies

   We have eaten here many times but usually for tapas. Tonight we had entrees and my fish, sole, had all the bones still in side. It was not described that way on the menu. Luckily my husband traded his short ribs with me as I am very adverse to fish bones. The food was all tasty.

   The food was fantastic! Really great flavors and presentation. Best grilled octupus we have ever had! The music was great also. Love the little white lights everywhere. I did not give it 5 stars for ambiance as my chair cover was ripped and dirty looking. The wall next to us was scrapped and needed to be repaired/painted. Our waiter was doing his best, but end of meal he disappeared and we had to repeatedly ask for our dessert and coffee, from multiple people. Guessing he just had too many tables to comfortably serve. Overall, a very nice experience and we will be back!

   Food presentation & quality is amazing! Service (as nice as service is) needs additional hospitality training: there is a missing professionalism for service overall ~ Atmosphere nice.

   All the staff at the restaurant was very friendly and helpful. I felt everyone was interested that I enjoyed my food. The server and sommelier were very helpful. My only comment was I would like to see more seafood in the Paella. It was very tasty and more seafood would have made it even better.

    We decided on Bodega Ole for our 39th Anniversary dinner. Loved the interior, very welcoming. Waitstaff was attentive when we arrived. Lighting was a bit dark, other diners had out the old cell phone flashlight. Our biggest concern/disappointment was with items marked on the menu as gluten free - and after speaking with the waiter, and he speaking with the chef, found they were not. Some items that were not specifically marked “gf” turned out to be. This made our ordering choices confusing, and somewhat concerning. The menu selections we settled with were the Flank Steak - best meal of the night, and the Pork dish - some very salty bites, but overall a nice dish. We began with the drunkin figs - although we had asked for the bacon wrapped figs. Oh well. Cocktails were nicely done. Out waiter was pleasant and attentive, until he was progressively assigned way more tables than he could handle. He tried his best, but we left without sampling any desert, as he indicated there was only one choice that was gf, which was not something we were interested in. We hope to try this restaurant again, perhaps out of season.

    Second time, both Saturday nights. First time was great, second time was better! You walk into the restaurant and you're instantly transported out of Naples and to Andulacia. The Flamenco band was playing again and was outstanding. The music is loud so this is not a place for quiet conversation; you have to yell to your dinner companions to be heard, but the music is spectacular and so out of character for Naples. Its got a Miami vibe more than a Naples vibe. The service was very attentive and helpful. The food was mostly excellent from the tapas, (olives, superb Croquettes-cod, gambas (needed more spice which they provided when asked), and expotatas bravos. The main courses were mostly outstanding including the skirt steak (outstanding) and the Corvina (super outstanding) The pork tenderloin was good, but slightly overcooked and a little dry (the only (slight) disappointment. The deserts including the torte and burnt cheesecake were both outstanding. And don't forget some vermouth, they have excellent choices. Both dinners were like a wonderful party. Compared to Naples downtown dinner prices, Bodega Ole represents superb value. Highly recommend.

    We have been to this restaurant several times. Always great ambiance however the collision store across the street has extremely bright flood lights that shine into the restaurant no matter where you sit. Unfortunate but hopefully the proprietors could find some way to minimize this. The bartenders were extremely slow, when we ordered a vodka rocks dirty the waitress needed to explain it to the bartender. The drink came “up” so we ordered ice. Then we were charged $3 for ice? Food, sangria and entertainment was very good

    Bodega Ole is truly a unique dining experience in Naples. The food is great and the ambiance very nice. Last night the music was outstanding making this a most entertaining experience. And the patrons are not all your typical Naples crowd! Many young energetic ladies and gentleman.

    We had a number of tapas for dinner which we liked very much. We started with white anchovies and Shishito Peppers. Our next course was Figs and chorizo. Our final course was “gambas” al ahio and meatballs. Everything was delicious.

    Beginning with the personable hostess, to the charming server, wonderful bartender and bus staff, we were treated as welcomed and valued diners. There was a keyboardist filling the room with beautiful music at a level that allowed for easy conversation. We started our dinner with delicious specialty drinks, followed by an amazing octopus starter, and finished with a fabulous seafood paella. No room for dessert this time, but their options looked amazing. We look forward to returning and thank everyone at Bodega Ole for a lovely evening.

    Great energy and decor. Patatas Bravas are delicious. The sauce with the meatballs needs to be savored! My skirt steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned to perfection. Our waiter was very attentive in spite of having several tables. I originally booked an outside table. It was a bit too cool and low and behold the hostess already anticipated this and had reserved a table inside for us. Very proactive!!!
