Khrystal K. DavisMarch 12, 2016I've lived coming here since I was a kid and eating in a trolley car in the old factory. I still enjoy it just as much. The food is as great as the atmosphere. Try the Spumoni for dessert.
Taco JonnyJune 2, 2014They have full meal deals that include a house pesto ranch salad, pasta of your choice, fresh bread, and ice cream. Dinner for two with drinks under $50. The building & atmosphere is immaculate.
Food and service is good. However, if you are here, do yourself a favor and drive the extra 5 miles to the hill and enjoy some of the best and most authentic Italian the Midwest has to offer.
Gary RiedySeptember 10, 2018The food is excellent and inexpensive and the old world atmosphere is great! I highly recommend this place to anyone who likes spaghetti or pasta dishes!
Antoinette SmithApril 25, 2016Everything was AMAZING! The staff was very nice. Our server knew everything to a tee. I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana and it was so delicious!!!! I work at Olive Garden and the food exceeded ours!
Tabetha CheseldineOctober 13, 2012Management and our server were beyond great. Went on a Friday night at 6:30 and only waited about 5 minutes. I have loved this place since I was a little girl and will continue to love it. Always good
Julia W.November 8, 2013Italian Cream Soda and the Mizithra cheese and Browned butter dinner with crispy bacon throughout.....nuf said. And as a added bonus, you get a souveiner glass to keep!- Quentin HendricksJune 20, 2015Great pasta dishes, good service, and a decent salad, which for me is saying a lot. Parking in the landing area is a pain in the arse though.
Samet KayaJuly 18, 2016Restaurant wasnt as good as we expect.Atmosphere was good but I couldnt say same things for meals.Pastas are simple and they magnified them in the menu.You can go different places with the same prices
Ninh PhamApril 14, 2014Lovely place. Good food. Very nice waiting staff except the greeter asked if I was a kid or I was just too small. I've heard worse though.- Taco JonnyJune 2, 2014Great place to eat after going to the Gateway Arch. You can walk there easily from the arch parking garage.
Jennifer PurvisMay 25, 2013Best service! They were so nice, even with us having 2 messy toddlers! Try a salad with their house dressing! Delicious!
Cliffe MarksDecember 6, 2011Visit www.familyattractionscard.com and you can get a FREE Italian Cream Soda beverage served in a colorful keepsake glass with the purchase of any adult entree!
Megen HolthausOctober 20, 2013Managers special and have a mix or just the mizithra and browned butter! Definitely have a Factory Punch!- Juan BrooksMarch 2, 2019A bunch of kids are employed here, so don’t expect outstanding service. The Lasagna was very good.
matthew droneMarch 27, 2012The house blend coffee is wonderful. Nice that you get to keep the glass with the Italian cream sodas too
Nick JacksonMay 20, 2013Beautiful place! Have the Toasted Ravioli for an Appetizer. Chicken Parm is a great dish as well.
Suzanne MuellerAugust 8, 2014Great place for old St Louis feel! Economical food and fun environment.
John KMay 27, 2014Interesting old woodwork. A good place to have Italian. Not great but solid. Great for families.
Keenan JonesMay 1, 2011Call hour in advanced for big groups. Ours took another hour after calling in a hour before. We had a group of 15 with a big event that week.
- Get the mizithra cheese pasta and add chicken to it. Best combo on the menu. Delicious!!
Rene HartJune 8, 2018The building was beautiful with an interesting history. Food was ok but nothing spectacular.
Linda LouJuly 27, 2012Service was good-pricing was reasonable-was not impress with foos-hubby ordered lasagna and I had the chicken marsala- neither of us enjoyed it
Mike RuckerJuly 11, 2010The food was good. I would eat here again. You have to have a cream soda it's off the chains!!

"A great monument! Such a cool thing for Missouri. It's very neat to visit and the riverside view from it is pretty amazing!"

"Fancy and nice on the surface. Cozy rooms. But had issues with WiFi and card keys."
Enrico Giovanardi - 9.2
"This is the best stadium for baseball in America. The views are great and the seating is comfortable. The all inclusive options are many and well worth the higher ticket cost."
