I had been wanting to try John Mineo’s for some time, and am so glad that I finally did. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, and the lunch menu is a great deal. The seafood pasta was out of this world, and the chocolate peanut butter pie was heavenly. My server Rick was just wonderful, and made certain that my experience was perfect. It has to be the most authentic Italian restaurant in St. Louis. I look forward to returning.

For a special occasion, you can't beat John Mineo's. Our server, Ricky, greeted us at the door and took us to our seats. A lovely table with a great view of the dining room, tastefully decorated. It's an old school place with tableside finshing of the dishes. But it's not stuffy! Classic Italian with modern touches. Highly recommended.

This place beats any place on The Hill. The food was delicious. So flavorful and served with great care. But the service was Michelin restaurant quality. From our server John to the chef visiting our table we were treated like royalty. We will be back!!
