St. Louis Restaurants
Not to mention the great restaurants on The Hill, in Clayton and Downtown, St. Louis is home to what we think is the greatest restaurant in the world, Tony’s St. Louis. We have eaten at Michelin Star rated restaurants and some of the finest restaurants in Chicago, New York and Los Angeles. Tony’s remains our favorite. All their food is exquisite, however, we highly recommend the scallops in truffle sauce, Tony’s salad and the lobster & scampi in mustard sauce.
As a Chicago area native, we prayed for good pizza in St. Louis, and a couple of years ago our prayers were finally answered with Pi (like the symbol). Our favorite pizza used to be Giordano’s (of Chicago), but since Pi came to town, they’ve taken the crown. Pi’s crust is a little better and their deep dish is a tad bit lighter. If you like Chicago style pizza, you will LOVE Pi. We recommend the deep dish.
In addition to pizza, we’ve search all over St. Louis for the best Italian beef sandwich and found it at Adrianas on the Hillย – we recommend the Mary’s Special with a side of au jus plusย Giardiniera (Please note: Blues City Deli also has a respectable Italian beef).
Visual Lure’s two favorite steakhouses in St. Louis are Flemings Steak House in Frontenac and The Capital Grille in Clayton. Both have great steaks, sides and appetizers. At Flemings we highly recommend the New York Strip and Fleming’s Potatoes, and at The Capital Grille we recommend the Parmesan Truffle fries and their cheesecake.
If you are looking for a hidden gem, look no further than Louie on Demun. It’s somewhat hidden with a sign no larger than a shoe box. You can just tell that all their food is made with pride and love (killer pizza and pasta). If you want to eat here, better call a week or two in advanced as they are always booked.
St. Louis Nightlife
Whether it be a sporting event, a concert at Enterprise Center, The Pageant, Fox Theatre, or the Peabody Opera House, there is almost always something going on in St. Louis.
St. Louis has multiple casinos on and near the Mississippi, in Downtown, East St. Louis and in St. Charles, MO. You can find nightclubs on Washington Street, on Lacledes Landing or in Clayton, and pubs in Soulard and Downtown. Soulard hosts one of the largest (some argue the 2nd largest) Mardi Gras festivals in the United States with attendance said to be around 500,000.
For the night owl, right across the Mississippi River, is Sauget, IL – home to Pops and The OZ Nightclub.
