About the Business

Specialties

The cuisine at Little Napoli features the flavors of Southern Italy, from Rome and Napoli, all the way down to Sicily...with a little bit of New Jersey thrown in, as chef/owner Rich Pepe was raised in Hoboken before coming out to California. Pizza, Pasta and Risotto are prepared perfectly with the Pepe family signature sauces. Seafood is a specialty here, and a special relationship with Harris Ranch, all-natural hormone-free meat company, provides all the beef for the menu items. Rich Pepe grew up working in the family bakery in New Jersey & also owns Carmel Bakery and desserts here are fantastic.The award-winning wine list is mostly Italian, with some local producers and Pepe's own wine from Atlas Peak in Napa, the PEPE. Rich Pepe is partners with the famed Italian winemaker Piero Antinori at Peppoli at Pebble Beach, and has an amazing collection of multiple vintages of the finest Italian wines, yet all at reasonable prices.

LITTLE NAPOLI "BISTRO ITALIANO"A tribute to Italian culture and cuisine, Little Napoli "Bistro Italiano" possesses Old World charm mixed with centuries old traditions in Italian cuisine - the menu features handed-down family recipes reminiscent of the Italian countryside by chef/owner Rich Pèpe.Not a bit of the lively traditions of Italy were lost in his grandparents' emigration to America.  Coupling that with a childhood spent in a large Italian neighborhood in Hoboken, New Jersey, Pèpe grew up with a great appreciation of the richness of his heritage and the importance of the family dining experience. Pèpe, known as "Carmel's Mr. Italy", comes from a proud Italian heritage and remains committed to bringing the warmth and joy of his family dinner table to his guests at Little Napoli.
