November Listener Lunch

After four weeks of delicious food at Shuey’s Restaurant & Lounge in Shueyville, we’re ready to announce our last Listener Lunch restaurant of the year. But, things will be a little different for November. We’re actually going to be visiting two different locations of the same restaurant! Our final Listener Lunches of 2025 will be at…

Napoli’s has been a staple in Marion for years, but back in 2023, the owners decided to expand and open a second restaurant in the Corridor. Napoli’s Italian Restaurant SW is located in the Westdale Town Center in Cedar Rapids, and we will be alternating between the two locations in the month of November. We’ll be eating at the Marion Napoli’s on November 3rd and 17th, and the Cedar Rapids Napoli’s on the 10th and 24th.

It’s been a few years since we’ve done lunch at Napoli’s, but we are so excited to be back! We’re looking forward to lots of pasta, bread, and, of course, tiramisu (Brain’s favorite!).
