Best Authentic Restaurants in Richmond Heights

This is the second time I have been to Lorenzo’s. It did not disappoint. I brought my partner and a friend. My partner has never been to St Louis before and I wanted her to experience the food in The Hlll. She loved it. The waiter was courteous and attentive, the restaurant I would t say is loud but there definitely is a good buzz of people talking and enjoying each other’s company. I will definitely recommend and hopefully come back in the future on trips to St Louis.

This was Valetine's Day and they were well prepped to service a largenumber of people. We made a reservation well in advance and asked to be seated in the "rear area" separated from the bar area -- which is usually quieter. We eat there about 2-3 times each year, for apecial occasions like a birthday, anniversary, etc. The food is always excellent They had their full menu available on Valentines Day, with a couple of special items added. Our waiter was very attentive without hovering -and was very friendly. We went with the 4-course tasting menu. We highly recommend the beet salad and the egg raviolo for the first two courses. The homemade pastas are also great. With one quartino of white wine and iced tea, our total for the evening was about $215 a couple of "upgrades" in the tasting menu and including tip. It's a bit of a pricy place, but well worth it for a treat!

I wasn't expecting to find my new favorite restaurant when I booked a reservation for Valentine's Day, but Maggiano's went above and beyond to give me the best service despite being busy. Every server and host was very friendly and patient. The restaurant was clean and cozy and fairly quiet even though it was packed. The drinks were amazing (I got a pomegranate martini and my boyfriend got the frozen peach bellini with a swirl) and came out fast. The food was absolutely phenomenal and well worth the money. I recommend the Branzino Crab Imperial! All in all, I had a wonderful experience and will be happy to dine here again in the future.

Lunch was amazing! Excellent service and amazing food. We started with a glass of Prosecco while sampling the amazing focaccia! Best ever! Next the mushroom and black truffle soup followed by the fish sandwich of the day.

We had a wonderful meal with great ambiance. The service was excellent.
