El personal es muy agradable y atento, es la única vez que he ido y nos tocaron mesas alrededor de grupos grandes y muy ruidosas, cosa que no es culpa del restaurante. El lugar esta bien, comida buena, el postre no nos encanto.

Used to be so great! Now just tired, dirty, and not as good. Redecorate!! That awful harlequin man has to go. The patio could be so great with redecorating! That whole area of Maryland is just awful. Too bad there isnt some taste from these “restaurants “.

Fantastic food and service. Stumbled in while taking a walk and found a great food and service place. Met at the door by the owner, a friendly, happy man. From the wait staff to the cleanup team, everyone was a treat. Met the chef and thanked her for her excellent cooking! Go and enjoy!!!!!!

I can't believe that it has taken us so long to try Bar Italia. Thank you for a delightful dining experience for Valentine's Day. The service was professional and friendly. Thanks, Juan! We were seated upstairs and enjoyed a relatively quiet table by the window. Everything that we had was delicious, from start to finish.

It is a holiday weekend (12.23.23 dinner 6:30 pm) but we had a good reason to go on a date with my wife. The waiter was unfriendly and hostile even rude. It felt like we were at the wrong place or he just did not want us to be there, we reached out to the manager and stated the issue. He was defensive and he thinks he runs a fast food not a nice restaurant where customers pay for the food as well the atmosphere and service. The only professional and pleasant person was a young man who brought the food from the kitchen.We told the manager the food and drinks are good but service is horrible and you cannot just be defensive, he still did not get it. I wonder if he is actually the manager.They ruined an evening which was supposed to meaningful. I can provide more context if the management is interested.

I have been going there for years and can't get enough. I have eaten sevral items on the menu and have yet to be displeased or unimpressed. Highly recommend!

This is quite the local gem! Fresh pasta, not too saucy yet flavorful. Fantastic service! Quiet enough for the romatics, cozy for others and yet simply fancy. Great cocktails!! Go here all the time!!

I have been going to Bar Italia for decades, and have never had a bad meal. Their food is always delicious, and my only dilemma is whether to get the Pollo Agrodolce again, or try something different. Last night there were five of us, so I got to taste several entrees - all great.

Bar Italia stands as a timeless and cherished spot in the Central West End, contributing to the St. Louis community since 1983. I had not been to Bar Italia since 2015 and its charm hasn’t changed. the upscale Italian cuisine remains unparalleled in St. Louis. The crab ravioli and mushroom pasta showcased the culinary excellence, leaving another mark on my taste buds. Beyond the exquisite dishes, the ambiance at Bar Italia creates a memorable dining experience. Here's to the enduring charm and continued excellence of Bar Italia!

We were a party of three looking for a restaurant near the New Cathedral where we had attended a Christmas concert. A Google search brought up Bar Italia, about a 1-minute drive from where we had parked for the event. Our service was outstanding as was the food, which arrived quickly. We were really impressed with this lovely restaurant!

Absolutely amazing experience. It was my wedding night and they did everything possible to make sure we had the best time. The food was absolutely incredible and the drinks were bought for us as a celebratory gift. I could not be any more pleased- if and when we are in St. Louis again, we will be dining at Bar Italia Ristorante!
