The Napoli Group

The Napoli Group is a family owned restaurant company that owns and operates six hospitality concepts in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Café Napoli was 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, allowing for private event space and an additional bar and lounge for the weekends. In 2008, Napoli II was opened in Town and Country, followed by Napoli in 2020 and Napoli Sea in 2023, both located in St. Charles. Having launched four fine-dining Café Napoli restaurants, the Pietoso family has shifted to a more casual format with its latest offering. Napoli Bros. Pizza and Pasta will be located at The Hub at The District of St. Louis in Chesterfield. The restaurant is slated to open in the spring of 2024.
