Parthenope Ristorante & Pizzeria Napoletana

We almost drove right past this place — and honestly, that would have been a huge mistake. Total hidden gem. It’s small, cozy, and feels more like a neighborhood Italian spot than a big restaurant, which we loved. The pizzas were excellent — thin, crispy crust with really fresh toppings and not overly heavy. You can tell they care about the ingredients. The homemade pasta was even better. It actually tasted fresh (not the usual restaurant pasta), and the sauces were simple but really flavorful. We also ordered a seafood dish and were surprised by how fresh everything tasted. Nothing was overly salty or drowning in sauce — just well cooked and really satisfying. Service was friendly and relaxed, and we never felt rushed. It’s the kind of place you go expecting a casual dinner and end up

Parthenope is a year-old trattoria/pizzeria in Deerfield named after the ancient Greek settlement that became Naples. It’s a strip-plaza location, but inside it feels intimate and elevated — dark paneling, stamped tin ceiling, white tablecloths. Definitely more full-service trattoria than casual pizza shop. The pizzas are 12-inch pies ($18–$22). They lean elevated American thin crust rather than strict Neapolitan — sturdy, balanced, and built with good ingredients like fior di latte. Clean sauce, well-structured crust. The lasagne ($26) was excellent: deeply developed beef-only ragù, just a touch of ricotta, no béchamel. Rich but controlled. A standout. Rachel ordered an off-menu eggplant parm ($28), thick stacked style. Good sauce, nice presentation, but slightly undercooked for our ta

I dropped the kids off at volleyball and felt like having some pasta. Looked around and found this place — what a discovery! The vibe is straight out of the ’80s, with music to match. Simple, a bit quirky inside, but the food is really tasty and the staff is friendly. Perfect spot for a quick, quality bite. Highly recommend! 🍝🔥

The food was beyond excellent from the appetizers to our entrees. We were a party of 10, food came out in waves but everyone enjoyed their dishes. Wait staff started off with a bang but seemed to struggle as more people were seated. We waited an extended period of time for to go containers and the check but would definitely go back again because the food was outstanding!!

Food was absolutely amazing. Service was phenomenal. Atmosphere is adorable. Authentic as it gets. Eating here is beautiful and homey, feels as if you are being hosted in a loving home. We will be back soon and often.
