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.

Probably one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Ordered the mussels for appetizer, would’ve liked some more flavor to the bread but broth was good. We split the caeser salad and it was great and a big portion even split. Our entrees were the highlight, my husband got the 8 oz ribeye and I got the Chilean sea bass special and wow, probably one of the best fish dishes I’ve ever had. The sauce on it was also amazing. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned well. Overall an excellent experience and we will be back, even if it is a 30 min drive for us.
