The three-course dining deal at The Ritz-Carlton Naples is ending this month after another successful summer.
The promotion, called Dining Passport, offers your choice of appetizer, main course, and dessert for $39 per person at four different Ritz-Carlton restaurants: Sofra, Ria, Nolita, and Bella Vista.
Dining Passport ends Aug. 31, so if you want to take advantage of the deal, make a reservation soon.
“We want to embrace the community,” said Emmie Lancaster, senior marketing manager for the Ritz-Carlton Resorts of Naples. “Now is a great time for locals to experience our restaurants when it’s quieter and we’re out of season.”
Discover it all, before it’s gone
Each restaurant has a different menu that was carefully curated to include patrons’ most loved dishes and celebrate global flavors in an attainable way.
“Because there’s multiple choices for each course, even if you come back to the same restaurant, you can have an entirely new experience,” said Executive Chef Efe Salar.
Nolita: Authentic Italian with a fresh twist
Nolita’s Dining Passport menu is so good that I visited twice to try different dishes. You can find the modern Italian restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton Naples on Vanderbilt Beach Road.
To start, you’ll select your choice of appetizer:
The panzanella is a perfect choice if you’re looking for a fresh, summery dish to start your meal with. It’s light enough that you can induldge without feeling full afterwards, leaving room for your two other courses. The cubed focaccia soaks up the red wine vinaigrette, giving you the perfect flavorful bite.
I tried the tomato bisque on my second visit and loved every bite. Make sure your first spoonful has the bisque, basil oil, and a crouton in it to ensure you taste everything together.
After you’ve enjoyed an appetizer, you’ll choose from three signature entrees:
The braised short rib rigatoni is a heartier option and nothing short of delicious. The short rib is tender and full of flavor, making every bite even better than the last.
If you’re more of a pizza person, Nolita’s Margherita pizza is one you need to try. It’s not greasy at all ― it’s light and authentic, transporting you straight to Napoli through every bite.
Of course, you can’t forget about dessert. Nolita’s two dessert options on their Dining Passport menu are the perfect finale to a great evening of dining.
Both dessert options are decadent and satisfying without being overly sweet.
Sofra: Traditional Mediterranean recipes and authentic spices
Sofra made national news when it landed in USA Today’s 10BEST List, proving its delicious authenticity. It’s located at the Ritz-Carlton on the beach and offers traditional Mediterranean recipes.
