Café Napoli is a family owned restaurant, established in 1989 by Tony and Kathy Pietoso. Quickly becoming a success, they moved the small basement restaurant to a larger location at the corner of Forsyth and Bemiston in the heart of Clayton. In 2003, sons Ande and Kye expanded their family restaurant by adding Bar Napoli, a swank cocktail lounge. A few years later, Napoli Reserve was added onto Bar Napoli allowing for private event space and an additional bar and lounge for the weekends. After years of a flourishing business, Kathy and Tony decided to take their ventures West to Town and Country where they opened their second location, Napoli2, managed by Ande. Kye has taken the reigns from his father and is now the front man for the 8,000 square foot establishment in Clayton. Café Napoli and Bar Napoli have recently undergone a face lift inside and out. Inside the kitchen, Executive Chef from Napoli2 Jon Berger was recently added to the team, bringing fresh ideas and innovation to the regional Italian specialties.

      We’ve eaten at Cafe Napoli many times over the years, but had not been in a while. Everything was excellent. From the service to the wonderfully tasting food was fantastic! It was refreshing to have such great and friendly service just perfectly on everything at the right times.

      We dined on the patio and the music was a bit loud but we asked to have it turned down and the management did so immediately. The food is excellent as was the service.

      Excellent food and service. My first time here and found that the entrance was a little hard to find with all the activity around the patio. The valet service was rather expensive at $12.

      Food was fabulous. We eat here every time we come to St. Louis. Cocktails were a little weak but we really never have a bad experience here.
