It's that old school Italian place brick walls big booths stained glass and you can see them making dough right in the front which I always like for some reason. We started with the house salad and it was actually really good and the warm rolls came out and we were already gobbling them sand the salad down! Then the pizza came and it was HUGE like not even kidding and pepperoni and they really don't skimp on it good cheese, crust had those little charred spots I like and I was honestly shocked we ate the whole thing and didn't take anything home at all I thought for sure we would. Service was really good too our waitress was on it kept drinks filled even though it was busy. Just a really good first stop after getting in nothing fancy but it hit exactly right when we needed it!

Some restaurants serve food. Others tell a story…read more At bNapoli Italian, Chef Momo Camara does both. I've been a fan of Chef Momo since his days at Harbor View Hotel on Martha's Vineyard, where his talent was already impossible to ignore. Yes, he's the chef who cooked for President Obama twice, but what impresses me most isn't the celebrity connection. It's his commitment to seasonality, sustainability, and the people behind the food. Chef Momo doesn't just buy ingredients--he builds relationships. He visits local farms, works directly with producers, and supports local businesses throughout Western Massachusetts. That philosophy is the heart and soul of bNapoli. This time, my favorite dish was the Hamachi Crudo. Thin slices of yellowtail, cured with salt, sugar, and citrus zest, floated in an orange acqua pazza so vibrant it tasted like sunshine meeting the sea. Clean, delicate, and beautifully balanced. The squid tonnarelli was equally memorable. Tender squid folded into house-made pasta with a lemon tomato sugo simmered for three hours, enriched with lobster stock, Calabrian chilies, crab, and shrimp. Rich, comforting, and deeply satisfying. My daughter's favorite showcased Chef Momo's creativity at its finest. Using a pâte à choux-based dough, he achieved a texture that seemed to defy gravity--ethereally light, impossibly pillowy, and delicate enough to disappear on the tongue. Paired with sweet roasted corn, asparagus, lemon crema, and crispy basil, the dish tasted like summer distilled into a single plate. As an Asian female chef, I couldn't help but reflect on how underrepresented chefs of color remain in fine dining. Some of the most talented chefs I've met throughout my career deserve greater recognition, and Chef Momo is certainly one of them. His food speaks for itself--thoughtful, elegant, technically precise, and deeply rooted in community. If representation matters to you, if supporting local farms matters to you, if celebrating extraordinary culinary talent matters to you, don't just talk about it. Show up. Make a reservation. Support Chef Momo. Western Massachusetts is lucky to have him.

We made reservations and were brought to our table fairly quickly considering the amount of people waiting in the lobby. We ordered calamari and the garlic knots special for an appetizer. The appetizers took a while to come out, so our waitress brought our salads first. The salads were good. Calamari got great views and the garlic nuts as well. Or dinners also took a while to come out on a busy Saturday night, but everyone liked the food. The ribeye was overcooked but we didn't want to send it back and wait longer. Filet was good, lamb chops were excellent, baked stuffed shrimp got rave reviews. Veal marsala was swimming in Marsala sauce. Way too much sauce. Fettuccine was good. We had desserts. Those were good too. The staff saying happy birthday to the 90-year-old birthday girl. That was very nice.

I had to ask my waitress if they changed different chef, but she said they still had the same chef and nothing was changed. Well, I guess I just got a bad luck.
