Family-run Italian restaurant Napoli Nel Cuore brings the heart and soul of Napoli to Leeds, with authentic pizzas, pasta dishes and more. This restaurant on Horsforth’s Town Street has built a big following thanks in part to the excellent food, but also the warmth and generous service of the family, who go the extra mile to ensure that customers have a good time.
If you’re looking for somewhere to host a private dinner celebration, whether it be a big birthday bash or a drinks party with nibbles, you’re in good hands with the team at Napoli Nel Cuore. For starters, there’s something for everyone across the extensive menu, which focuses mainly on authentic pasta and pizza dishes from Napoli and the south of Italy.
The first thing you see as you walk in is Napoli Nel Cuore’s beautiful wood-fired pizza oven, embellished with the restaurant’s name in mosaic tiles. Beautiful charred, crusty pizzas fly in and out of the oven at a pace, and guests have a huge range of options to choose from, from a classic margherita or marinara to speciality pizzas like the Sofia Loren, where the team will surprise you with a different topping on each corner of the pizza. There are also calzones and special ‘I Fritti’ pizzas, which are folded and deep-fried with fillings.
There are also lots of pasta dishes, as well as mains, salads and more, which stick to more recognisable regional specialities from around Italy.
Napoli Nel Cuore’s charming, bistro-esque dining room is available to hire for private parties, and the team is on hand to help with menu choices and organisation of the flexible space.
