Downtown Naples has a brand-new spot that brings a touch of European glamour to our Gulf Coast dining
scene - La Salière, an Italian-Mediterranean restaurant with Monte-Carlo heritage and an unmistakable sense of refinement. Now open at 360 12th Ave S, Naples, FL 34102 where the Bevy was prior, La Salière seamlessly blends Old-World influence, coastal freshness, and a warm welcome that fits beautifully into the heart of Naples.
This restaurant isn’t just a new place to dine - it’s an experience. With decades of culinary legacy behind its name, La Salière has arrived in Naples with sophistication, thoughtful design, and menus built around tradition, artistry, and the pleasures of gathering around a well-set table.
A European Icon Arrives in Naples
La Salière has long been known abroad as a symbol of elegance, celebrating Italian flavors with French Riviera charm. Its Naples location is the first in the U.S., bringing with it the same commitment to craft, hospitality, and high-quality ingredients that defined its reputation overseas.
The name “La Salière” itself is rooted in European culinary history - inspired by Renaissance artistry and the graceful fusion of land and sea. That symbolism carries through every detail of the dining experience here: timeless flavors, natural materials, classic design touches, and a dedication to balance and beauty.
A Dining Room That Feels Like a Mediterranean Escape
Step inside La Salière and you’re greeted with the warmth of an elegant seaside villa. The interior is soft, refined, and polished - bright yet intimate, upscale yet inviting. Expect touches like:
Soft ambient lighting that sets a relaxed, evening-ready mood
Mediterranean greenery and floral accents, including bougainvillea details
Velvet seating and thoughtfully curated textures
A beautiful bar perfect for cocktails or a pre-dinner toast
A blend of white linens, warm wood, and coastal tones
The space is large enough to feel lively, yet intimate enough to keep the atmosphere calm and elegant. It’s easy to imagine long dinners with friends, special celebrations, or a relaxed brunch that turns into a leisurely afternoon.
The Cuisine: Italian Tradition With a Coastal Lens
La Salière’s menu brings together the comforting classics of Italian cooking with fresh, locally inspired ingredients. The result is a menu that feels familiar yet elevated - the kind that encourages sharing, savoring, and slowing down. Guests can expect a thoughtfully curated selection of:
Handmade Pastas & Pinsa Romana
The restaurant’s signature pinsa - a Roman-style flatbread known for its airy, crisp texture — is already becoming a favorite. Pastas are crafted with care, honoring the rustic, soulful roots of Italian cooking.
Mediterranean Seafood
Drawing inspiration from coastal Italy, you’ll find beautifully prepared fish and shellfish dishes, thoughtfully plated and seasoned to highlight freshness rather than overwhelm it.
Classic Entrées
Expect refined renditions of traditional Italian specialties - dishes like veal ragù, tender ossobuco, and delicate beef cuts prepared with regional influence.
Signature Steaks & Heartier Fare
For guests looking for something bold, the menu includes standout steak selections and satisfying, flavorful entrées that feel celebratory.
Cocktails & Wine
The wine list is Italian-forward with selections to complement both light coastal dishes and richer entrées. Cocktails lean Mediterranean with herbal notes, citrus brightness, and a touch of Riviera charm.
It’s the kind of menu that manages to feel classic without ever feeling predictable.
A Restaurant Designed for Every Kind of Occasion
La Salière offers flexibility and intention in its service:
Dinner service nightly, perfect for everything from casual upscale evenings to special celebrations
A daily Happy Hour, ideal for early diners and guests looking to enjoy the bar scene
Weekend brunch, offering a fresh, elegant way to start Saturdays and Sundays
