"Like the Nolita neighborhood in Manhattan, Nolita has a wonderful, casual vibe. Our menu reflects the recipes of blended families and traditions, where dishes featuring red sauce sit on the table alongside white wine sauce. Those old conventions do not apply," Chef Yerramilli explains "And the pizzas everyone has an opinion about the perfect crust, but the pizza at Nolita is a must."
Leading the Pizza Kitchen is Chef Gabriele Candela, a third-generation pizza chef who honed his skills in his grandfather's Palermo, Sicily pizzeria. With experience at renowned pizzerias including L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele in Naples, Italy, Chef Candela prioritizes top-quality ingredients such as 48-hour fermented flour, San Marzano D.O.P tomatoes, and Fior Di Latte mozzarella. His signature 'light as air' focaccia, a cherished family recipe, graces the Nolita menu.
"The introduction of Nolita bolsters the resort's four-decade legacy as the premier dining destination in Naples, now with eight unique on-property bars and restaurants for our guests and local residents," said Ritz-Carlton Area General Manager Mark Ferland. "The Ritz-Carlton, Naples remains the iconic Florida resort where memories are made, and Nolita provides the perfect setting for sharing moments with friends and family in Naples."
Located on the resort's Beach Level, Nolita joins recent additions to The Ritz-Carlton, Naples: Sofra, Moka, and the Lobby Bar. Inspired by the shared plates of the Eastern Mediterranean, Sofra features a vegetable forward menu highlighting the coastal flavors of Turkey, Greece, Israel, and Jordan. Moka, influenced by bustling Italian cafes, presents delightful coffee drinks curated by a third-generation roasting family. The Lobby Bar, steeped in tradition, offers a Master Sommelier-curated menu of Champagnes and wines, expertly paired with light bites crafted by Executive Chef Satish Yerramilli.
Nolita is open daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with reservations available for dinner service at www.NolitaNaples.com or +1 (239) 598-3300.
Naples Beach Cabanas Launches First Concierge Beach Cabana Rental Service in Naples
Naples Beach Cabanas, a new local business, is set to redefine beach leisure with the launch of its concierge cabana rental service in Naples, Florida. This innovative service caters to beachgoers seeking a luxurious, tailored, hassle-free beach day.
The founder of Naples Beach Cabanas, a Naples resident of over 20 years and FGCU graduate, was inspired by his travels to other beach destinations where he discovered the concept of luxury beach clubs. These club facilities offer day passes to enjoy lavish amenities without having to lift a finger. He realized that Naples, despite its stunning coastline, did not offer anything like this for locals and non-beachfront guests. He wanted to bring the convenience, comfort, and essence of beach clubs to his hometown for people to enjoy
Naples Beach Cabanas addresses common beach day challenges, eliminating the need for customers to lug cumbersome equipment or scramble for a prime spot on the sand. Instead, beachgoers can simply show up to their preferred beach location and a tailored cabana setup will already be waiting for them.
The service offers a variety of cabana packages complemented by add-ons to suit customers’ desires and budgets. Packages are stylishly designed and come equipped with everything necessary for the perfect beach day, including concierge delivery, setup, and takedown.
Naples Beach Cabanas is more than just a business It’s a passion project born out of a love for the beach The service aims to help customers make lasting memories and enjoy the beach like never before.
“Our mission is to be the premier destination for creating unforgettable, hassle-free beach days on the beautiful Naples coast,” says the founder Frank Scerbo “We are excited to launch our new concierge service just in time for the 2024 season.”
Naples Beach Cabanas is now accepting reservations for its concierge cabana service. Customers can book their reservation online at www.naplesbeachcabanas.com or by calling/texting (239) 427-1964
