Took my Ohio friends and their 5 children ages 13 to 1 and grandma from Peru after the Arch experience on Labor Day 2023. It was around 5 p.m. As a party of 9, we were seated at the very back near the kitchen as that's where the biggest tables are. Jason was extremely kind to and patient with this family and they remarked how they are typically treated so poorly by service people at most restaurants because of 5 children so they were THRILLED to receive such amazing respect and service. I was worried about the food but every single person loved their dish and their faces lit up with the first taste of the unknown Spumoni ice cream. He made substitutions when possible to accommodate them. They couldn't stop talking about this dinner/service as being a highlight of their week in The Lou. Thank you Jason from California. We're glad you moved here!! Kid-friendliness: They are accommodating with high chairs, boosters, etc. Have good options on the kids menu.
The vibe was fun. The service was fast and our waiter was very attentive. The food was fine. The portions were plentiful. The calamari was nicely crisped. The meal came with a soup or salad, entree and dessert! It was a good deal for the price. We ordered the pasta with mushroom sauce, shrimp linguini with Alfredo sauce and spinach tortellini with cheese and meat.
The atmosphere and overall look inside this place is really awesome. The garlic bread they give you is just amazing and the way they make the chicken is something else. An ice cream is included at the end of your meal, nice touch. Definitely recommend!Food: 5/5
Spaghetti was good. Salad was really good. Service needs improvement. Basic things like getting drinks quickly, asking if everything is fine after food comes out within a few minutes, and following up later for desert, boxes, etc. Overall it’s a beautiful place and has a romantic atmosphere. Food tasted good.Food: 5/5
Very historic old building that is the best part of the experience. The food was expensive and just ok. With two kids we waited a very long time to get a table and were ignored. Once helped the waitress was great, but it took literally 15 minutes before we were seated, and another 15 before we were served.
Food was very good although portions were a bit smaller than I thought they might be. Meal comes with a side, entree, and ice cream so that is a lovely bonus. Service could have been better when we visited, however they were fairly busy. Kid-friendliness: They only have high chairs, do not have boosters
Would come back more so for the ambiance than the food I think the location and the actual restaurant is really beautiful and has a romantic old time vibe to it. Really prefect for a great date night out or something more personal. The staff were also really amazing and makes you feel really welcomed. It is just a shame that the food was just average and wasn’t too noteworthy. Maybe I have high standards for spaghetti since it is in the name, but it was hard to feel like the taste was worth it in any way. The portions are also a bit on the smaller side so an appetizer can help with that. There are definitely better Italian style food not too far away that is better but I doubt they can beat the ambiance and feel of the place.
First time visiting St Louis so I wanted to go to a historical place to eat. A locals favorite. I wasn't very disappointed but it could have been better. But for the area there aren't many choices. I had the shrimp fettuccine and salad. The shrimp where a nice size not those popcorn shrimp. The sauce was good just a little too thick. Just glad it wasn't water down. I enjoyed the fettuccine. I had a salad with cesar dressing tasted like a homemade version that lack the Cesar taste. It was mainly water down mayo and the lettuce wasn't fresh. Which was very disappointing for an Italian restaurant. The loaf of bread was nice and warm. I finished the dinner off with ice-cream.
Food was very good I only give 4 stars on all food. The wife's food is 5 star always. I need to keep eatting. The place is off a back street or what seemed to be wouldn't go there after dark. We rode the train there from the other side of the river where we camped. The arch is right also.Food: 4/5
Had an enjoyable meal with my family here. Our food was delicious and the kids absolutely destroyed their plates! My twins loved their food so much they ate their entire bowl of food! Our service was a little disappointing, because our server brought a wrong order and forgot a couple of minor things. However, she was nice and may have been busy. I would definitely come back and loved that the prices here were affordable and were not gouged by inflation. Kid-friendliness: Great spot for picky eaters, because whatever their recipes are - they are a hit with the kiddos.
