Very nice Italian restaurant with public parking nearby. Wish the portions were a little bit bigger but overall the food was excellent. We'll definitely return.

Food and service were excellent ( FETTUCCINE FRUTTI di MARE, Fettuccine Siciliano). Two things were not as I remember them - negroni was served in a cafeteria type of glass (not a very good looking presentation) and eggplant caponata had more carrots than eggplant. But still one of our favorite places!

Outstanding food with excellent service. Our server provoded foood suggestions, some we followed and are happy we did. Could not have been better. And a special thanks to Jason for helping me get in and out of the patio... and out of my chair. I use 2 canes. Jason made by visit much easier and more relaxing!

Bar Italia is a Central West End staple. I've been dining here for many years and it never disappoints. Service is terrific, food is great and the atmosphere wonderful. When the weather cooperates, they have a large patio that overlooks Maryland Avenue. Great people watching. And their espresso martini is one of the best in St. Louis!

Wonderful service and food! The watermelon salad is amazing! If the weather is nice sit on the patio.

Ravioli dish swimming in oil and tasteless Medallions of beef...got a generous portion but tough and not really seasoned. Fettuccine tre amici dish watery and again no flavor. Desert lemmoncello cake was very good. Overall a big miss. It was our anniversary and hoped for so much more.

Seated on their outdoor patio on a pleasant evening. Nice atmosphere. Enjoyed the beef medallions, the off-menu lobster ravioli, the caprese salad and the warm, fresh bread. Anthony was our server and very personable. Fairly limited menu but very reasonably priced.
We listened to the recommendations of our server and were 110% pleased. Service, food and cocktails were sensational!

The location was great. It's in a pretty neighborhood. The food was decent and the menu is fairly limited. Service was okay. It was not busy and our waitress was nice. The waiter who refilled water spilled the water all over the table and onto my friends purse that was placed in a chair next to her. Accidents happen but the waiter didn't even attempt to help clean up or dry off her things. I think I heard him quickly apologize right after he did it but didn't acknowledge dumping almost a full glass of water on her leather purse. I'm not sure how this restaurant is rated as highly as it is. I will not be going back.
