We went to the Chefs of Napoli, Sat--very pleasant .REAL Italian bread for a change Had Osso Bucco -REAL Osso Bucco-not imitation pork. Calamari was done to perfection-light breaded & tender. Good sized drinks and well made.

I haven't seen anyone post that Chefs of Napoli failed a health inspection about 3 weeks ago and was closed for a week. I had not heard about it until last week from my golf partner. Of course it could be a good thing since they had to pass a re-inspection to open. I did a search on TOTV and didn't find any other comments, here's an online health report that confirms the information. Click on the Jan 25th emergency order and it details the report, they apparently had 70 violations.

Per your link, they had 70 violations on 1/25 and STILL had 9 when reinspected on 1/26. They were then reinspected again on 2/9, with 4 violations that required "no further action"...and were allowed to reopen then. Looks like they were closed almost 2 weeks! |

Ok- they cleaned up their act--but they still know how to cook real Italian food
Its the best Italian food we've had in the Villages |

We ate there several times and Mr. Brat speaks the truth. They can cook. Mama Mia it's Prince Spaghetti Day Anthony. It is the real deal.

We went to eat in Crystal River yesterday, Sunday. We came down 301 to come home. We passed Chef's of Napoli about 7:30 and they were packed. The parking lot was full and people were standing outside waiting.

When a local Chinese restaurant had a similar issue it was widely criticized herein. Also happened to McD at Colony. Guess opinions on hygiene are different based on popularity of the establishment. (just sayin)

Because they cook real Italian, doesn't mean they shouldn't be clean! They will eventually make someone sick, buy the looks of the violations, don't know if I would trust the meat products there ,if they don't know how to properly handle them! Scary!

Most of the violations that were cited sure didn't happen overnight.

Friends of ours highly recommended this restaurant as "the best Italian food in The Villages". I was planning on trying it out until I read they were shut down. Now that I see the long list of violations (WOW), I would never eat there unless the people running it were fired or left the restaurant business. Those violations came from negligence, over a long period of time; a long period of neglect which they put customers in jeopardy. I'll stick with Francesco's on 441 in Summerfield for Italian food. It has an open kitchen which looks very clean and neat, and I'd be very surprised if they were ever shut down for health violations.

I really like the food there but those violations make me leery of going there.
