We had a large group with a set menu. There was an abundance of food and the staff were attentive to everyone's requests. Amazing food and absolutely no complaints.

- 처음 갔으므로 마르게리따 하나 깔조네 하나 시켰는데 둘다 좋았음
- 깔조네는 내 기준 좀 느끼했음. 한달내내 빵먹어도 괜찮은 편임
- 다시 간다면 로제랑 화이트 피자를 한개씩 먹어볼듯
- 늦게 가서 딱히 불편 한 건 없었지만 낮이었으면 소리가 좀 울리는 구조라 시끄러울 수는 있을듯

Food was delicious and had an amazing blend of authentic Italian flavors. The ingredients tasted fresh and the service was very good. Although the price is higher than normal restaurants, the amazing food definitely subsidises this. Also, the Pizza is very good. All in all, I would definitely recommend this restaurant and i'll be sure to be back here again soon.
Exceptional food that is plentiful! Staff are very friendly and helpful. A slice of Italy in Surry Hills
Forgot to post this review from last July, but remembered how good their food is when we revisited them recently. Absolutely amazing menu with everything done to perfection. The zucchini flowers are an absolute must try. The gnocchi and the fungi pasta are simply outstanding. Will definitely revisit.
Ever since I moved from Naples to Sydney, I’ve been searching for that authentic taste of home—and I finally found it here. This pizzeria is the real deal: the dough is perfectly light and chewy, the ingredients are fresh and full of flavor, and every bite takes me straight back to the streets of Napoli. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff treat you like family. It’s more than just pizza—it’s a little piece of home. Grazie mille for keeping the Neapolitan tradition alive down under!
The best margherita cheese. Expensive place but extremely worth it.
Very good pizzas and service. The room was a bit loud.
I had a party of 6 on Saturday night and it was fantastic! Our waiter was so nice and he smiled all the time!
Food was absolutely great as usual! Fiore de Zuca is to dye for!

Excellent pizzas if you’re on the North Shore. Also tried some other dishes but the pizzas are clearly the stand out. Staff are very attentive and accomodating too. Recommended.

Staff did an awesome job of managing birthday party for my daughter. Food and service were great.
Pizza is extremely good! Must order the arancini porcini (mushroom).
The waiters are very nice and attentive

We sat outdoors, it was a perfect evening.
Service was excellent; despite the restaurant being busy, everything was very well organised.
The food was fantastic, please try the polpo! All my friends and I loved it.
The pizza was also amazing, and the quality of the prosciutto was superb.
Special thanks to the guy with the great smile :) he really contributed to a wonderful evening.

Good Friday Grilled Seafood Platter created by Chef Lin was beyond delicious. Had friends with us and they also loved the food and service! Thank you!
It’s a very nice place and food is superb ( it’s real Italian food). We were so lucky that they had pastiera napoletana…You must try this place if you like Italian food ❤️
Nice buzzing restaurant with very friendly and accommodating service. We booked for a group and had an extra show up, they were able to change us onto a bigger table to accommodate the extra person.
Food is delicious as always, with their classic 1m long pizza (up to 3 toppings) and pastas.
Perfect level of spice from the spicy salami (if you don’t like heat I’d recommend you skip it as it’s quick fire-y).
They also do some good cocktails!

Excellent pizza! We came as a group of 20 and barely had to wait – really impressive. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Not fully convinced by the starters or cocktails, but the pizzas were top notch. Also great quality when ordered for delivery. Would definitely come back!
Great food and friendly service.
Hands down the best Italian outside of Italy. Do yourself a favour and venture out of the touristy spots to this gem. The service, ambiance, food are impeccable. We got the Cassarecce Arrabiatta, Sourdough pane and the Burratino pizza.
Best place to come for the 1 metre woodfire pizza. Atmosphere was fantastic especially with the loud Street Festival going on. Finding our table was abit chaotic.
Love seeing the pizzas being made in the woodfire oven. Pizzas were delicious. Red and white bases were just right. Not salty and overbearing. The proscuitto and truffle pizzas was a favourite.
Orders came out pretty fast. Their birthday celebration was out of this world. Got the whole restaurant singing Happy Birthday. Thank you for a fantastic night.

Great staff and fast service.
Great staff and fast service.
Always enjoyed coming here to celebrate a birthday. Place was busy and the clubbing music from the Street Festival made the atmosphere fun and vibrant.
Place was busy so nobody showed us our table. Ended up guessing and grabbing chair.
Ordered the metre pizza..Defintely a crowd pleaser. One was the Allesandro and Elena. Pizza was delicious and sauce was perfect. Not salty or overbearing. Prosciutto was fresh and not too salty. Was so good ended up ordering 3 which was enough for our large group.
After dinner group wanted to leave as the music from the other places was too loud. Nobody passed on the message to our waiter that it was for a birthday.
Definitely worth the wait. singing of Happy Birthday from one of the waitress and the whole restaurant made it a fun night to remember. Thank you!

Enjoyable dinner experience the food was great. The Calamari and Pizza were 5 star winners! The pasta unfortunately was let down by the overpowering smell of the prawns. I didn't feel they should lose a whole star over this, though.
If you like spicy options, both the pizza and pasta are a good choice! Would come back again!

Food is so good and the staff are very friendly and their service are excellent. The guy from New Caledonia is exceptionally good.
Authentic napoleon style pizza, delicious!! Always always beautiful dishes, they always deliver! Amazing service as well.
Gnocci and pizza were delicious! I would DEFINETLY come here again!
Best pizza and service in lane cove! My husband and I ordered take away tonight from Lane Cove Via Napoli - the wonderful guy at the pickup counter was amazingly prompt and friendly and the pizza was larger even than the half meter we ordered (to the point they had to fold it slightly to get it in the box). Then, he gave us a bonus food since it was his birthday - THANK YOU SO MUCH AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We really loved the pizzas (my favorite is the 4 formaggi, which sounds simple but isnt and we've never had a pizza from here that we didnt like).
Great Italian pizza & pastas
So busy eating forgot yo take pictures 😂

Highly recommend

We are locals and always see this place packed, so decided to go for a last minute dinner.
Busy great energy and the service is quick and friendly. Alex and team do a great job to keep the pace going. Food is fresh, the pizza sauce base is fab and the great value for money: so glad we came

The pizza is a solid 10/10. It's one of the best pizza's in Sydney hands down. The pasta dishes were delicious but expensive for a small amount. Would definitely be smashing their pizza's more.
This is our regular pizza place. Nothing beats Via Napoli pizza. Authentic and they have the best service.
I booked the bottomless lunch option for my birthday and it was so much fun - best value for money that you will find in Surry Hills! Cocktails included in the price too such a steal. I will definitely be back, thank you 😊

Full marks to the team at Via Napoli. Had an error in our Doordash order and the manager took it upon himself to remedy and deliver the order himself. Great service. And turned a poor experience into a 5 star review.
Dining at Via Napoli is always a blast! The food is absolutely delicious, the service is top-notch, and there's just something in the air that makes you feel right at home.
I’m a regular customer at Via Napoli Pizzeria, and the experience is always fantastic! The pizza fritta is absolutely delicious – crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, with the perfect balance of cheese and seasonings. It’s a unique twist on traditional pizza that I’ll definitely be coming back for.
What truly stands out, however, is the customer service. Valentina and her staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring we feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout our meal. It’s clear they take pride in both their food and their service. I highly recommend Via Napoli to anyone looking for great food and an even better dining experience!

I highly recommend this restaurant the best food .
Great food and location. Been multiple times and staff are very accommodating
Had a great dinner with interstate visitors. The service excellent and friendly with top notch fresh ingredients on generous pizzas and pastas. Take your appetite with you and try the delicious choice.
Eating pizza at Via Napoli transports you straight back to the restaurants of Napoli. It honestly can’t get more authentic. Best pizza in Sydney, highly recommend. The espresso is perfetto, too 🤌🏼
This is about the most authentic pizza and pasta you will get outside of Italy. Unbelievable quality ingredients, friendly staff and amazing atmosphere. The Luigi Bruschetta is better than the best I’ve had anywhere including my precious favorite one in Pisa, Italy. This is a must visit place and I highly recommend it. Thank you to Luigi and his awesome staff.
Delicious food, lovely service!
Excellentes pizza, seul bémol : très bruyant
Love VN Surry Hills and Lane Cove! Friendly staff and the food is crazy good.

I have been going here for 1 year and always receive exceptional service and have a wonderful time. This is my favourite italian place in sydney the food is ALWAYS amazing. Whether it’s a date night, dinner with friends or a birthday or event this place is perfect!! There’s 3 italian ladies who work here that are always so welcoming and friendly which gives the restaurant an authentic vibe!
Loved eating here last night! Despite being packed on a Saturday night, the service was excellent and the food was delicious.
We had a great night, service was amazing!
Definitely one of my favourite Italian restaurants in Sydney.
I went the first time for an Italian friends bday and I always thought that if an Italian recommended should be good, and it was.
Since then we celebrate several birthdays there and the food is so good and the price is good as well.
I took my boyfriend for a date and he absolutely love it so now every time we have a celebration we go there.
The team is always so friendly and so nice, they always take good care of us. Definitely will still be celebrating things there.
Perfect for a romantic date.

Great food and good service overall. Always love the casual vibe of this place. It would have been very nicer if we were given a bigger table, having 5 people squeezed to a table normally sits 4 was a bit tight.
Authentic Italian pizza, with great service and fun atmosphere
Delicious slow cooked ragu pasta special- our Italian server, she was attentive and fabulous.
Absolutely love Via Napoli! It is our favourite restaurants and the perfect place to spend our 10 year anniversary. The food is outstanding and cocktails are delicious. Thank you so much to the staff for your fun and kind service all night!
The waitress Antonella was lovely, her customer service was amazing. Definitely coming back again. The food was also delicious and very authentic, and the service being very fast which was amazing. Loved everything about the place. Best in Surry Hills
The staff were amazing. Enjoyed the food and service. Thank you for a great night.
Amazing pizzas! We did takeaway with the half meter pizzas and they were so good! Very lovely staff and boss in the kitchen too
