Went here for the first time and it was really good. The drinks were great and the beef tenderloin sandwich was fantastic. Dining room can get a bit loud, but I will definitely be back.

We actually made a reservation for another Toscana in STL. The ladies at the front were sweet enough to offer us a stop on the enclosed patio with a heater. So glad we stayed. VERY good. The hummus and bread was so yummy to start. Had the Mista and Caesar salads. Both good portions and great flavor. Then my husband had the veal marsala and I had the special - pistachio cream pasta with shrimp and sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms. Both were perfecto. Our waitress was Anna, she was very friendly and attentive. Steve the owner stopped by to check on us. Great meal. Thanks for letting us stay. 🙂

Came here to celebrate a special occasion and it delivered. Made a reservation in advance but still got a later time slot because they're so popular. Definitely recommend booking ahead.
When you walk in there's a bar area up front and then the dining room opens up toward the back. It was packed (dinner time). Looked around and saw elderly couples, families, friend groups, date nights. The dimly lit interior sets a nice vibe like in other Italian restaurants, very warm and intimate.
The menu surprised us in a good way. It's Italian but elevated and with a twist, like they took the classics and made them more interesting. The mushroom appetizer was so unique, comes with these big chunky potatoes that worked perfectly. The brussel sprout salad was a 10/10, super savory and filling for a salad. The margherita pizza 10/10. The pasta 10/10. Tiramisu to finish also 10/10. Everything felt like traditional Italian but just better.
Our waitress was so friendly and attentive throughout the whole night. Would absolutely come back and highly recommend for any special occasion or even just a really good dinner out.

Meh. I'd say don't get takeout, just eat in. I ordered a burger and requested it be cooked Medium, and it was pretty darn rare. There was also nowhere to add lettuce and tomato on the online order form, so I requested it in the comments, and I was told by a manager that I was going to be charged for it next time. I didn't feel super welcome as a customer. Also nickel and dime-ing customers for crappy lettuce is certainly a choice. Especially when many of your clientele are wearing fur coats and wearing Celine sunglasses. I mean, come on. Really?

I had the chicken soto last night and it was one of the best dishes ever!! Chicken breast were tender and seasoned. The risotto cake was absolutely delicious. The only thing I would do differently is maybe substitute the spinach, but this dish was phenomenal. I will be back 100%

Shrimp rigatoni was fantastic. A few cauliflower pieces in the cream sauce was a surprise. The tiramisu was truly amazing. And we don't typically order dessert. So glad we did. Check out their Freebird mocktail!
