Agostino's Restaurant


Italian dining with an elegant air
15846 Manchester Rd
St. Louis, MO 63011
United States
+1 636 391 5480
http://www.agostinosstlouis.com/
Agostino's Restaurant, a staple of the St. Louis dining scene for more than 30 years, offers classic Italian cuisine and elegant atmosphere to a well-to-do West County crowd. In what is largely a family operation, the Gabrieles continue to do what they have been doing since the first Agostino came to town in the 1950s. The pastas are wonderful, in particular the linguine tutto mare and the seafood pasta. Teal is served beautifully, as are the chicken and beef dishes. The service is attentive, without overdoing the tableside finishing of dishes. There is a full bar and an excellent wine list, with a sufficient selection of medium-priced bottles.

This South Grand landmark, restored to its original Bavarian-style decor, now houses one of the area's favorite American-European restaurants.

It serves a Sunday brunch and dinner, while guests may also choose from select menu entrees such as the Spinach and Wild Mushroom Fricassee. It also serves a tasty sweet-and-sour pork entree that has more of an oriental flavor. The homemade apple strudel is another favorite among the regulars.

"Fun and casual" is the name of the game in this American restaurant. Owners Thom and Jane Sehnert are friendly and well-known in the St. Louis community and culinary scene. Annie's serves great food, but that is somewhat offset by the cramped dining area and the lengthy wait. This restaurant is known for its steaks, but it also serves smoked meats, pork, fish, ribs, burgers and more. Outdoor dining is available.

For fine Russian food in the St. Louis area, Astoria is one of only two choices, the other being Zhivago's. An upscale restaurant in West County, Astoria offers some American dishes on the menu, but the Russian specialties are definitely the favorites. A splendid selection of appetizers includes an unusual stuffed eggplant and tender beef dumplings. For an entrée, the traditional Beef stroganoff is outstanding, served with potatoes instead of noodles. If you don't mind the calories, try a luscious Russian Napolean for dessert.

The Goody Goody Diner, which has been serving up tasty diner food since it was established in 1948, still survives in a location that most of its contemporaries have long since abandoned. Casual is the theme here, and in a city that is home to relatively few real diners, the Goody Goody is a find. You can get breakfast until 11am (all day on Wednesday and Saturday). The kitchen serves everything from French toast to a fish cake breakfast and a pork chop platter. There are big salads, including an excellent Greek salad, plus hamburgers, roast beef and country fried steak sandwiches, and, of course, meatloaf. What would a diner be without meatloaf? Or without chili mac, for that matter?

Since 1987, this restaurant has offered a wide selection of fresh seafood, veal, chicken, lamb, steaks and pasta. In 1996, the Terzo family added the Il Forno café, which offers outside dining with a menu that includes appetizers, salads, gourmet pizza, calzone, pasta and other entrees. Appetizers range in price from $5.95-8.95 and include several seafood selections such as the Puff Pastry Escargot and toasted ravioli. Among entrees, the pizzas are especially noteworthy; however, adding meat toppings such as chicken, shrimp, or clams can quickly raise the price out of the standard $6.50-9.50 range. Steaks are priced both according to size and by whether customers are sitting in the café or dining room, while lamb, shrimp, fresh fish and lobster tails are offered at market price. Entrees are served with the chef's selection of vegetables, while a small house salad can be added for $1.95.

With a variety of choices on its all-you-can-eat buffet, Happy China is a great place to stop for lunch. However, popularity does have its drawbacks: the lines are long here, and the wait is longer. If you can stand the wait, though, the cuisine is worth it. Best of all, the buffet items are labeled. Chef Pa creates an array of sweet-and-sour, spicy and ginger-flavored pork, beef and chicken. Top off any selection with a crispy egg roll and some wonton soup.

The bar room hosts live music W-Sa. Most patrons tend to be fairly dressy.

Kenrod's All-Star Sports Grill sports bar is well known for its programming, as it has eight satellites and 50 televisions, which broadcast sports into every nook and cranny.

The all-time menu favorite is the massive, juicy cheeseburger, which is made to order. Rest assured that all entree portions are more than the average person can eat and are well worth the price; you might want to consider sharing unless you are extremely hungry.

The antiques scattered throughout the dining room date back to the late 1800s; even the booths are antiques. If the thought of Bison Tongue does not set your mouth to watering, you might just stick with a regular hamburger. Guests regularly order the bison and ostrich specialties, but the menu has something to appeal to everyone. Try the two-inch thick Trainwreck Chop, a Caesar salad, a glass of beer or wine and one of the house desserts - may be a mousse!

Tucker's has a warm, pub-like atmosphere with lots of wood and a cozy fireplace. The menu is definitely for meat lovers; the specialties of the house are steaks, charbroiled burgers, and the jumbo pork chop. A few well-prepared seafood entrees are also available. Start with an appetizer of crispy chicken wings with zesty sauce. Another Tucker's favorite is the wonderful baked potato. Salads are fresh and tasty. For dessert, the strawberry-Amaretto cake is truly luscious.

The decor is comfortably rustic at the Wild Horse Grill, with a fireplace and wood beams. The most popular menu items are burgers, steaks and ribs. But the menu also boasts more sophisticated fare like Veal Oscar and a delicious breast of chicken stuffed with mushrooms and herbs. Be sure to try the onion soup flavored with Madeira and plenty of melted Parmesan and Swiss cheese on top. Cozy private dining rooms are available, as well as seating on the outdoor patio.

Woofie's


Hotdogs when you need them
1919 Woodson Road
(at Page)
St. Louis, MO 63114-5649
United States
+1 314 426 6291
Woofie's advertises itself as home of 'The Hotdog with Dignity'. In St. Louis, it is not easy to find a good one. This explains the appeal of Woofie's, an otherwise run-of-the-mill drive-in in a nondescript neighborhood close to the airport. Once there, you can find your basic dog, a quarter-pounder (the Big Daddy) and even a New York Nathan-style (grilled, with brown mustard, relish and sauerkraut). There are also corn dogs, a Reuben dog and bratwursts; there are even pastrami sandwiches. Still, most purists stick with the basic Woofie, it is pure pleasure.

Zhivago's


15 varieties of vodka
15480 Clayton Rd
St. Louis, MO 63011
United States
+1 636 394 5758
http://www.zhivagos.com
The decor in Zhivago's is elegant, with dark green walls and crystal chandeliers. Adding to the ambience, many of the patrons and most of the waiters carry on conversations in Russian. You will find Russian fare with Asian and Mediterranean influences on the menu. Appetizers, or zakuski, come in ample portions that some would call a meal in itself. As for entrees, the lamb tenderloin with spicy sauce and beef stroganoff are both highly recommended. For dessert, try the cream cheese blini with a nice glass of wine or one of 15 varieties of Russian vodka.

Zinnia


California cuisine meets the Midwest
7491 Big Bend
St. Louis, MO 63119
United States
+1 314 962 0572
http://www.zinniarestaurant.com
zinniarestaurant@sbcglobal.net
The dining room fills quickly at this cutting-edge restaurant, which emphasizes California cooking. It is definitely a good idea to make weekend reservations well in advance. You can also expect the dining room to be buzzing with activity and conversation, so do not plan on making this your choice for a peaceful, quiet meal. The wait staff, though, is professional and attentive. Appetizers and salads are designed to get you started without being too filling. Entrees include duck, rabbit and lamb and are served with side dishes designed to complement the main dish. More down-to-earth selections include steaks and pizza.
