“ We had the best seat in the house overlooking the lake and Marina along with the most engaged waitress. I ordered the sea bass and it was cooked to perfection along with mashed potatoes and a delicious vegetable medley. We topped it off with creme brulee which was prepared as well as any French restaurant. I would like to reinforce that our waitress was so attentive and in tune with our needs and we will definitely go back for the service, food and atmosphere. ”
“ Great food and service. Seafood ordered was fresh. Little one loved the chicken tenders and fruit option. Food was plated nicely. New favorite on the lake. ”
“ Napoli By the Lake is the perfect spot! They are overlooking the lake and have plenty of slips if coming by boat. We made reservations for Valentine’s and were given a table next to their large windows. The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. The hosts were very welcoming and greeted us immediately. Our server was very personable and gave her recommendations. We ordered the mussels for an appetizer and it came out delicious. For our meals, my husband had steak and lobster and I had the Blackened Mahi over sweet mash with asparagus. We chose the creme brulee for dessert and that was perfect as well!Their menu has something for everyone - from salads, steaks, seafood, to vegetarian options. We drove about an hour and we cannot recommend this enough! ”

We were promptly greeted by our server who was so kind and attentive. We started with the sticky shrimp. Absolutely mouthwatering! A must order app! Entrees included Chilean Sea Bass and their special Ahi-Tuna. Some of the best prepared and quality fish we have ever eaten! The asparagus was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes and rice were yummy! They also have a really cool bar that’s separated by a door. We stopped by after dinner and enjoyed some drinks.
