Napolis Italian Restaurant

It was nice to go to a locally owned italian restaurant instead of another chain. We ventured a few miles outside of Beaumont for something different and new to us, and this place helped to fulfill that mission. Our server was very friendly, but not too overbearing like some servers tend to be. She made sure that we always had a full beverage and that our food came out in record time!

From the outside, the restaurant looks like it's really dark and has sort of an intimate, romantic vibe. This isn't the case once you get inside, but that's okay because, when you think about it, it's a locally owned restaurant in a very small town and you can't expect them to go overboard with decor. It's very casual and that's fine. The restaurant is very well-lit and there are no lit candles on the tables. If you are looking for ambience, you need to look elsewhere. The patrons seem to be regulars and many of them know one another. I found that aspect of it to be very quaint and charming.

All of the food items we ordered were good; mozzarella sticks, oven baked ravioli, and fettucini alfredo. In my experience, I've found that the fettucini alfredo entrees served by most small, locally owned italian places tend to be kind of bland. I wouldn't say that Napoli's dish was especially tasty, but it was better than Gino's and New York Pizza & Pasta's versions. They did not skimp on sauce! I almost couldn't find the noodles within the sea of alfredo.

My only real complaint was that the manager or owner at the front was not very friendly. I hope, for the sake of this business' future, that he was just having a really bad night. He seemed to be nice and speak to the patrons that he knew, but he didn't even crack a smile for us.  At least the servers were the exception and were really great!

Yep. This place is pretty great for it's location. The owner is a little gruff. Liked the earlier comment that he's in the mob. Pasta Arriabata was really spicy and overpowered the dish. Penne with Vodka sauce was rich and not too creamy. Order the olive oil dipping sauce. The ambiance is pretty lame but it is always fun to see wine bottles hang from the ceiling as decor. Visit Village Creek State Park for a swim and work up an appetite while you are in the area. It's just 5min down the road. They have a great cabin for rent too.

I have eaten here twice while in Lumberton.  It doesn't look like much (reminds me somewhat of a 70's era place in looks, nothing fancy) but the food is excellent and the servers are friendly and generally fast.

The first time I ate there - plenty of bread and I got alfredo sauce to dip it in.  Delicious.  It was so good, the next time I was in town visiting family, I asked my grandmother if she wanted something and got take-out.  We all enjoyed the food and had MORE than enough.

I highly recommend - if you like italian food - to try them out.
