• Italian • Clayton
Booked 30 times today
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.

    Stack salad sounded good and tasted even better. Soup of the day, cream of spinach with chicken, was excellent. Wife and I both had the veal saltimboca, which was delicious. Nice touch offering the pasta side aglio/olio as an option to standard marinara, although it could have used more garlic. Sizable wine list with numerous good choices. Service was first rated.

    I was looking for a place to take my family (wife and 3 adult children). Perfect location. Great food, great vibe for them. They loved the appetizers and the variety of mixed drinks. I had the Seafood Risotto from the Chef's menu. Would definitely recommend it. One son had the Shrimp Diablo. Nothing to take home. The other son had the Wagyu burger and seasoned fries (his 1st time trying Wagyu beef). He's coming back again next month with friends. My daughter had your Harvest salad with chicken. It was HUGE! My wife had your champagne fish and chips. I got to help her finish. So good. Paige was excellent as our server. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

    We were celebrating birthdays: the table was decorated to that theme, and the meal capped off with a birthday dessert. Started with well designed cocktails. Loved the opportunity to compare types of oysters. Entrees were delicious and well proportioned. Wait staff was very attentive. I love this restaurant!

    Not inexpensive but a tremendous value because everything they do is top-notch without being pretentious or stuffy. The Crossing has long been on my short list of the best restaurants in St. Louis, but over the last few years it has really separated itself from the pack in my opinion and pretty much stands alone at this point, at least for what I'm looking for. Keep up the fantastic work!
