Went there are a birthday party with 4 women in their late 70s. They loved it. The food was great but strange, the ambience was wonderful and the waitress was great. The only issue is that is is hard to find (tucked back between a tatoo parlor and a pizza joint) and the parking was difficult. Be prepared to walk a block or two.

Siamo Napoli exceeded our expectations! Giovanni (one of the owner brother) assisted with our dining choices. We had calamari appetizers, shrimp risotto with a saffron cream sauce, lobster ravioli, and osso bucco everything perfectly executed. We were served tiramisu for our friend’s wedding celebration and a lovely limoncello cake for my birthday on the house. I had Pinot Grigio a Sicilian style and our friends had super Tuscans outstanding! Run don’t walk to experience Sismo Napoli. There is some parking available otherwise street
