Best Indian Restaurant in Napoli – A True Culinary Gem!
I stayed in Napoli for 26 days, and out of those, I had dinner at Spize Valley Indian Restaurant for 22 nights – that should already tell you how incredible this place is! Without a doubt, this is the best Indian restaurant in Napoli – and one of the best Indian food experiences I’ve had outside of India.
The food here is consistently flavorful, authentic, and cooked with care. Some standout dishes that I highly recommend: • Chicken Biryani – perfectly spiced, fragrant, and satisfying • Varuthara Chicken – crispy, spicy, and full of depth • Chettinad Chicken – a South Indian specialty done right • Kerala Fish Curry – tangy, coconut-based, and absolutely delicious • Paneer Butter Masala – rich, creamy, and comforting • Chickpea Curry – hearty, flavorful, and great for vegetarians • Kerala Porotta – flaky, soft, and a perfect match with any curry • Chapati – fresh, warm, and light
The staff are one of the reasons I kept returning. They are extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the dishes. If you’re new to Indian cuisine, they’ll guide you through the menu and help you choose according to your preferences.
A special shout-out to Nikhil, who made every visit memorable. He is genuinely passionate about hospitality, always welcoming with a smile, and gives personalized service. His recommendations were always spot-on, and he made me feel like a valued guest every single time.
Another great thing I noticed – a lot of Italian guests come here regularly. It’s wonderful to see so many locals enjoying authentic Indian cuisine and appreciating the bold flavors and spices that make it so special.
If you’re in Napoli and craving authentic Indian food, Spize Valley is the place to go. Whether you’re Indian, a fan of Indian cuisine, or trying it for the first time, you’ll leave satisfied and wanting to...

Disclaimer: This is NOT A PAID/FORCED REVIEW. I'm writing this based on the emotional attachment that I have developed with this restaurant.
I am from India and I lived in Napoli for a period of 26 days due to office related work. During my period of stay, I used to visit this restaurant almost everyday for dinner.
I must say that this restaurant is a hidden gem! To say that this is simply another good Indian restaurant will simply dilute the situation. In fact, this is THE BEST Indian restaurant in Napoli.
I have shared the menu here. All the dishes are from Kerala (a beautiful state from the southern part of India. Often the Indians refer to Kerala as God's own country! 😊)
All the dishes are absolutely fantastic, scrumptious and authentic! The restaurant is neat and clean. There are plenty of seating arrangements (no need to wait in queue).
My recommendations: I don't consume beef Starters - chicken lollipop, chicken 65, dragon chicken Soup - all soups are superb Chicken - chettinad chicken, varuthara chicken, butter chicken. Veg - Daal curry, chickpea curry, paneer butter masala Rice - all type of rice Bread - Kerala porotta, butter naan
The staffs: Nikhil, his wife Anjitha are very jolly and co operative. Last but not the least, the owner Mr. Gopan is super friendly and he can speak...
Read moreFood was just ok. I’ve seen a lot of reviews where people said that it felt like taste back home but I strongly disagree. It’s a typical Indian restaurant with non authentic taste. We ordered chicken 65, chicken Manchow soup, Chicken kadhai, Kuttu Paratha and Chicken biryani. Chicken 65: Just deep fried chicken with no spices coating. Served without any chutney. Soup: Soup was good but it had very little chicken pieces, 5-6 and that too very tiny. I felt like it was a ready to make soup that was served. Chicken Kadhai: This was tasty but it was not chicken Kadhi at all. It felt more like Chettinad chicken with strong coconut flavor. Biryani: Would not recommend at all if you expect actual biryani. Although, the rice was very flavorful ( non basmati) but the chicken in there was friend chicken in cornstarch batter and just mixed with the rice. As for the hospitality and service, the people very nice and friendly. They said that they opened up 2 months back and appreciate any feedback to improve...
