50 Best Italian Restaurants near Bridgeton

“This Restaurant is a 10 star being the best...Sue was so polite and very courteous....she greeted us on entering waited on us and brought our food out.....She is an asset to your company ..will be back tons of times“

“Last night we hosted my friend’s 70th BD party at the ‘Old’ Place Massa’s in Bridgeton with 12 of his family and best childhood friends. It was SO special as they all grew up near and had great memories here. Well, it was the most delightful evening ever! Mike (manager), MaryAnn (I hope I have the right name) and ALL the wait staff were so kind, friendly, and helpful … we felt like they became family too! AND THE FOOD! Never disappoints! We all ordered a variety but my pizza rocked. The drinks and appetizers didn’t disappoint-LOVE the spinach dip. Someone got their steak specialty dish and we all were jealous… it melted in your mouth. From beginning to end, it was the perfect night! And the staff and food made it GREAT! Thank you all so much!!“

“Played a lot of oldies music, reminded me of my grandmother. The entree and the main meal were definitely good, though I felt the salad was lacking. Then again, I'm used to salads that don't just use 90% iceburg lettuce that has pretty much zero nutritional value. I use a spring variety mix with spinach, so a lot more fiber, and darker leafings. No real issues other than the salad, really.“

“My only comment for improvement is regarding the unfriendly hostess on August 14.“

“THE BEST dinner we’ve had in the past three years! The cauliflower appetizer, the romaine salad, and sea bass main course were outstanding! The service was perfect, and the ambiance and decor were terrific. Congrats to Michael and his team. A+“

“I'm from NY and live in Seattle. This little restaurant in St. Louis was the best meal of my life. Negroni, House Made Pasta, pork chop. Sat at the bar and the two ladies there were so sweet and on point. I may visit the city again just to go back! Thx for the meal/service!“

“We were celebrating our daughter receiving her Ph D. This place was highly recommended. Had a WONDERFUL experience. The food was fabulous. The staff extremely friendly. Nice wide open space. Being in the business. I was watching the other staffs interaction with guests and other co workers. EXCELLENT VIBE in the house. HIGHLY recommend. All in All. Guests Staff. Food. Cleanliness. Home Run. Great Job 👊👊👍👍“

“The staff has our hearts, the food has our bellies! All around an extraordinary experience for myself and my family visiting in from IL. Thanks so much to your excellent team at Fratelli’s! We’ll most certainly be back and refer others to forego the experience. We are thankful for you all! Best, -Kasey“

“Great food, fair prices, friendly vibes.“

“Paul Manno’s is the one thing I miss more than the Cardinals baseball games since retiring in 2004. I took my brother there a few years before that, and he said it was the best Italian he had anywhere in the country, and he traveled a lot. I always recommended Paul’s whenever new people came in our flower shop, and EVERYONE agreed with my brother and me. I hounded Gourmet Magazine until they reviewed them. Good enough for MNF Aikman, Buck & Collingsworth! My number one choice in the country.“

“Good food and very professional staff“

“Cannoli Cake is 🤤😋delicious“

“We had a great anniversary dinner!“

“We had carryout catering from Vincenzo’s for an event we hosted, and it was amazing! The customer service truly elevated the entire experience. We can’t thank them enough for taking care of us and providing such a delicious meal!“

“We love Viviano’s, great for lunch or dinner, great happy hours! The mushroom Brie soup is wonderful! And the workers are super sweet ❤️“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pictured below is the Gonzo calzone- Salami, dates, spinach, garlic herb cheese, mozzarella, mascarpone-ricotta blend, and garlic oil with garlic butter on the side. My husband looked at me like I was crazy when I read off dates but the slight sweetness against all of that savory is what made it!! We also tried the Fatty B, Meat me in St Louie, Magic Carpet Ride, and the Gyro. They were all amazing but the Gonzo and the Gyro were my favorites. The Magic Carpet Ride is also a must try if you're into mushrooms.“

“Thank You, Dom for a Wonderful Rehearsal Dinner Experience

I wanted to extend my heartfelt thanks for hosting our rehearsal dinner at Massa’s. The evening was truly special, and your team went above and beyond to make everything perfect. From the delicious food to the warm and welcoming atmosphere, every detail exceeded our expectations.

We received so many compliments from our guests, and it’s all thanks to your hospitality and the care you put into the evening. We’re so grateful for your support in making such an important night so memorable.

Warm regards,
Tom and Lindsay“

“Got pick up with my gf. Loved the meat lovers and the buffalo chicken. Amazing service. They were quick and kind. Mean while at the local dominos a few weeks later i get caller a cheap b*stard by the delivery BOY. I cant wait to try more from stefs.“

“The food is delicious and consistent. I love the calzones and the salad.“

“Fantastic food, great as always“

“I was recently in the Clayton, MO area for a work trip and decided to try this place out for lunch with a colleague since it was walking distance from my company’s corporate office… I was definitely not disappointed. The food was excellent!

The two very good things that this place gets it right with their calzones are that their crusts are just perfect (not to thick, not thin, not too bread like) and just has the right amount of cheese. A lot of places tend to over do it with the amount of cheese they stick in the calzone to the point that all you really taste is just the cheese and no longer the crust or the other fillings.

The entire staff was friendly and the service was quick. They also have a wide selection of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The place was also very clean which is always a very big plus. They also had a good selection of salads which I will definitely try when I’m back in the area.“

“Great place to entertain friends! Food and service were excellent. Love seeing Mary Rose in the restaurant ❤️“

“me and my boyfriend came here for our anniversary dinner and absolutely loved it!! our server was very kind and helpful. our food was served quickly and was delicious. we loved everything about our experience! special shoutout to the worker that was happy to take our picture before we left!“

“My husband and I both had the Halibut special, and he also had a small salad. We both said we enjoyed the best meals of our lives, for our second time at Dominic's . We were so full that we did not get dessert, so maybe the next time! This is a FABULOUS restaurant, and though it was very full, our service was great. It's wonderful that they take reservations.“

“Best food and kindest people!“

“Amazing pizza! Best lasagna! Great staff! 5 Stars!“

“Our first time here and we will be back ASAP! Excellent service from Gretchen! She was amazing! Burrata was incredible. We split the aglilo de olio and the roman pizza and both were fantastic! All wine we had was top notch! Fantastic place!!“

“Late dinner - we were in the mood for something Italian - food is fabulous - we choose lasagna and risotto - both dishes were yummy and plenty left over for lunch tomorrow - FYI: Their salad are the best!! Kayla and the house staff were fabulous as well… we will be back soon…“

“Haven't been back to St. Louis for awhile and knew we needed to go to The Crossing for dinner. Jim Fiala and his team hits it out of the park in every way. 3 courses paired with wine and each spot on. Last time there we brought our own wine as it was a special bottle. No problem as long as it wasn't on their list and the wine cellar is extensive. If you want an extraordinary dining experience please go.“

“Charlie Gitto's is one of my favorites. Went to the downtown locations before it closed many, many times and the OG on the Hill is awesome. This was my first time at the Casino location. Our server was excellent and took our drink and app order virtually immediately and came back 2 minutes later for the entree order. Very good service. We got the toasted ravs and they are smaller than most places but that doesn't matter, because they were more filled and a lot less chewy than other restaurants. My son had the Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken, which he devoured. I had the grouper special, which was perfectly cooked. I would highly recommend.“

“Best Pizza in town! Very fresh and tastes just like pizza in the East Coast!“

“Thanks for the OVER PRICED BLOODY WINGS! 🤮🤮🤮“

“We ordered a couple different sandwiches.. including the ORIGINAL… and holy smokes!! The ORIGINAL HOT SALAMI.. STOP! Right there .. unbelievable.. we also had the Meatball, and the Italian Trio.. but I’m trying every thing on the menu! 13 STARS“

“I highly recommend Sauci, the food was delicious. The house salad is to die for, you will end up buying the dressing to share with family and friends.“

“It was such a great time! Food excellent, wine even better and the atmosphere was so awesome. Low lighting just a great vibe“

“Thanks for the OVER PRICED BLOODY WINGS! 🤮🤮🤮“

“Had my rehearsal dinner here and everyone raved about the food. They made sure the evening was perfect!“

“We have been coming to this Pasta House for over 25 years and our visit tonight was just perfect. Pre pandemic, we often ate every Friday and the restaurant was always busy with everyone really enjoying their dining experience. During pandemic we just got carry out and have just started eating in once again. The service, friendliness of the staff and food was just like it was before COVID-19. Congratulations on weathering the storm and continuing to provide excellent dining experiences.“

“Gioia's has several locations around St. Louis, yet this is my favorite. Tucked in to the business park area between Dorrsett and Page it provides a quick and delicious lunch option for several of the businesses in the area. The online or counter ordering is prime when I feel the need for a sandwich. If you feel like dinning uder the awning there's a few picnic tables. Keep up the great work!“

“Pizza and pasta was delicioso!“

“I used live in Mississippi and I would drive up from Mississippi just to get Faraci pizza and I liked all of their pizzas and salad. All of Faraci’s food on their menu was yummy. That I live in the lake of the Ozarks it’s a lot closer for me and I would drive up and order pizzas And bring them back. The Faraci special, the hamburger bacon, and the pepperoni and pineapple or my favorites but I will eat just about anything from that restaurant. Prices are reasonable and if you don’t think they are, that’s not faraci fault , that’s is JB fault.“

“Pan's fine dining, and elegant ambiance keep us coming back, year after year!♥️🥰♥️“

“I was in St. Louis, tried pizza in this place, the wait, the service and a lot of positivity from the people who work there. One of the best pizzas served in St. Louis is located at this address. I recommend this place to everyone, and special thanks to the manager Anthony and the pizza makers Colin and Rachel, and everyone else.“

“LOVE! We had their pizza for the first time today and it's so good. The crust is perfectly crunchy, topped with delicious fresh ingredients! If you're from St. Louis, this will make you very nostalgic of the old St. Louis style pizzerias ❤️ The owners are AMAZING family people. 10/10“

“A very good experience; enjoyed the fried appetizers; fries and falafel.. The team are really cheerful and friendly 😍“

“Robert enthusiastically greeted us upon our arrival. He is very personable and professional. We were impressed with his pizza ingredient knowledge, regarding all the different kinds. Our all meat. Pizza was piping hot and delicious! The ingredients were obviously fresh. Both bathrooms were clean. The floor and the tables were spotless, awaiting their next guests. It was quite apparent to us that Robert was genuinely invested in our Jets pizza dining experience.“
