These people are scammers. I was about to give 3* for the food (which was below average by Naples standards) until we got the bill.
It’s one thing that they automatically bring you an OPEN bottle of water—even though you never ordered it—that you have to pay for. But when we got the check, the waiter started explaining that we had to pay with cash and tip is not included so it would be great to add that as well, also in cash. I indicated that I wanted to pay by credit card when he started blabbering about it being impossible as the wifi didn’t work, etc… I then said that I did not have cash, then he got angry, said that I could pay with card inside and stormed off. I speak fluent Italian and I overheard that they played this game with literally everyone, insisting on people paying cash and pushing them to tip in cash too.
All this is a pretty disgusting practice so I would never go back and would not recommend this place to anyone.

Cool place. We went mostly because of the pandas (who were adorable) but seen lots of other amazing animals. We really liked all the bamboo. There are multiple places to get food from which is also great. Lots of merch to choose from. We read lots of interesting information about the animals, including some that were really educational.
We found that some animals have rather small places for themselves (like the bald eagle, but the “big cats” could benefit from more space as well).
Many tablets in the reptile house didn’t work so we had no idea what animal we were looking at (or what we should’ve found as many of them disguised themselves too well).
I think it would also be practical to add signs with numbers to the various areas of the too to make orientation easier. It’s too easy to miss certain zones unless someone consults the map all the time.
Overall we had a great time and it seemed like the animals are well cared for.

Phenomenal restaurant. We wanted to go to the place next door originally (which is also great) but we’ve seen this one and I decided to experiment. We’ve never done the “cook for yourself” thing with various meats before so this was our first time and we had a blast. We tried the wagyu and the beef tongue. Clearly the meat is high quality and it was thinly sliced so it’s ready in a minute or two. Both the edamame and the cabbage appetizers were good and my bibimbap was amazing as well as my husband’s curry. Sake is also tasty and we arrived at the right time as there was happy hour with 50% off drinks. Yay! Our waitress was lovely, polite and very helpful (as I mentioned this was our first time in a restaurant like this so we needed some guidance, lol). The tea at the end of the meal was such a thoughtful gesture. Highly recommended!!

The place is small but has a lot of different food items, I think anyone can find something they'll like. I went for the tuna wrap, it was huge, and only cost $7. There are also many different ice creams, sandwiches, energy bars, fruit, coffee, etc... Cute staff as well.
