    I've never been to the Ritz in Naples, but at the many others I've been to, I've always been impressed with the restaurants.

    Just out of curiosity...if she weren't attractive would you have a different request ;)

    Don't miss the sunset out on the beach/pier. It always seals the deal

    It's very far from 5th Ave.

    I second Campiello. It's my favorite in Naples.

    Many good ones.

    Sea Salt, Campiello's. Went to a new one, Hob Knob on Saturday, very good.

    Also, Meredays is a new one in the marina area about a mile from 5th aveneu south off 41 south of town.

    Ritz food is good (had lunch there Saturday) and the sunset there is great with a bar on the beach.

    Can't go wrong!

    Trulucks is great, but my favorite is Baleen's at the LaPlaya (near the Ritz).

    +1 for the Grill Room at the Ritz... outstanding.

    Trulucks and Tulia on 5th Ave. are very good too.

    I'm in Naples now and did a little recon on Fifth and Third yesterday.

    Right now it is incredibly crowded and will only get worse on the weekend. Extremely hard to find parking and the roads are really congested.

    With it being so busy I don't think you'll find anything remotely quiet or romantic on Fifth.

    However, my local knowledge did allow me to find a nice seat on Third St. :)

    Did the Watermark Grille in Naples with my wife & inlaws on V-day. Not sure I'd call it quite "upscale," but it was an excellent meal and quite a decent venue. Must say - some of the best scallops I've had in ages.

    For next year. Tulia is the best for Italian food, I like cafe lurcat as well. Blue Provence is overrated, campiello's chef opened tulias. Naples is not known for the best restaurants.
