il Comandante ristorante | Romeo Hotel

"Wow, simply wow! The staff was amazingly nice and helpful. The food was really tasty, very creative and also pleasing to the eye. (Plus, they give out quite a lot of free snacks). The view was stunning.

Everything was just so unbelievably wonderful!
Our whole experience at this restaurant was memorable and I can only recommend anyone who visits Naples to eat here.

By the way we couldn’t make it to the reservation date and the nice staff simply rescheduled to another date for us. We were really happy with how understanding she responded."

"A 5 star review to a restaurant that was reviewed by the top reviewers. Great experience transcending the food and providing a harmony and integrity of the Napolitano experience. Great dishes made to perfection and with flair and individual point of view. Service is impeccable and while very traditional its also friendly and attentive. Great views of the port and the bay of Napoli add to a one unforgettable experience."

"I was in a one-star mood and the restaurant was close to my hotel, so I decided to test it out. Making reservations required guaranteeing with a credit card so instead I emailed them and they accepted my reservation. It is a great view of the bay of Naples for sure. My table was on the outdoor terrace and it was too windy so I asked to move inside. It looks like you have to walk thru the restaurant to get to the small rooftop pool but I could be mistaken. Everyone has been very friendly and professional befitting a high-end restaurant. They offered Champagne as an aperitif but I asked for an Americano. Not because I’m American :) but because I like Negronis very much and I didn’t want to jump straight to that strong of a cocktail. It wasn’t the best one I’ve had - too watery and too much ice. I like the background music. The Amuse Bouche was very well presented but not that tasty. Since I ate one Amuse Bouche out of the suggested order (my bad), they tried to clear them before I was done. They offered 3, 6, or 8 courses. Based on my experience so far, I decided to cut my losses and go for 3. I asked for wine pairings and they gladly supported. They were very accommodating with one food allergy I have. The fresh/warm bread with local butter & olive oil was well presented and delicious. The Americano got better towards the end :) The 5-Spice 65-degree egg with mozzarella first course wasn’t bad. The sommelier described and poured a local white to go with the egg course. Everyone spoke perfect English. The white wine was ok but not worth writing about. The waiter very professionally cleared the the crumbs after the first course. I unfortunately have a shellfish allergy. The second course was a rock fish and cuttlefish pasta. They assured me no shellfish was in it but as I started to eat it, my throat started to tingle and itch and I was clearly starting to have a reaction. I stopped, they apologized and went to prepare something else. Very gratuitous about it. I would recommend ordering a table at the window overlooking the bay! The replacement second course was delicious. It was a Ragu without meat but replicating the flavor with Japanese ingredients like miso, etc. The paired red wine was also excellent. I’m not a vegetarian but the second course also came with a meatless meatball. It was good but no one would mistake it for a meatball. This might be a good place for a business dinner (with a table at the window overlooking the bay). The WiFi appears to be only for hotel guests. But my 5G was wicked fast. The dessert which had kefir in it, which I like, was tasty but not super special. The dessert wine was hyper-sweet but I would try again with a dessert course. Thinking back, they were (probably unintentionally) stingy with the water. The surprise dessert was again beautifully presented but 2 of the 4 marinated fruit tasted off. I hope I’m ok tomorrow. :) The watermelon juice was very good. I am certainly stuffed. The restroom is on the first floor of the hotel, BTW. El Comandante, please don’t respond that you are displeased that I was displeased and that I should come back again. Your negatives detract from your positives. Not that you asked my opinion but I would keep most things the same and work on your less tasty dishes."
