    Toasted Ravioli
    Kristine N.

    If you're visiting St. Louis, you've probably heard about toasted ravioli, and Anthonino's Taverna is one of the places that kept coming up in recommendations. The restaurant was packed on a Monday evening, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you're dining with a group. I stopped by without one and only had a short wait. It was also fun seeing the photos and memorabilia from when Guy Fieri featured the restaurant on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Service was friendly and quick. I started with the toasted ravioli, and while it was nicely fried, it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. It was basically deep-fried ravioli without much flavor on its own, though the marinara sauce helped. For my entrée, I ordered the Tutti Mare in garlic butter sauce, which I enjoyed much more. The seafood was cooked well, and the pasta was light and flavorful without feeling too heavy. Overall, I had a great meal and left completely full. Even though the toasted ravioli wasn't my favorite, I'd still recommend Anthonino's Taverna if you're looking for authentic Italian food in St. Louis!

    We visited last night for the first time to celebrate my birthday. I was looking for a solid family restaurant and Anthonino's fit the bill. It's a big restaurant with lots of seating and an extensive menu. The service was friendly and attentive. For an appetizer we chose toasted ravioli and they were some of the best I have had. Flavorful filling, crispy exterior, and plenty of Parmesan cheese. We all really enjoyed these. The complimentary bread with olive oil was also nice while we waited. Not a ton of places still have this. I also liked that the olive oil was seasoned which gave it a nice kick. For entrees we ordered two lasagnas, salmon pasta and a frisco burger. All were good but the lasagna was the standout. A little spicy and very filling. The salmon could have used a little extra salt but I loved the grilled flavor. Since it was my birthday they gave me a complimentary mini cannoli. It was so cute and very tasty! If I wasn't so full I would have loved a full sized one. If we go back again I would try a pizza and Palmer's style chicken. Both looked really good!

    Great food, atmosphere and service. Anthonino's lived up to the hype! From start to finish the dinner was seem-less. When visiting St.Louis, I'll definitely be back.

    Clearly, with over a thousand reviews, Anthonino's is beloved in St Louis and beyond! I had to check it out for myself. Reservations are a good idea due to its popularity. Parking is easy within a block or two. Outdoor, booth, and table seating is available. My husband had the gluten free pasta because it is also vegan, and no lie and true to form, it was delightful and light! The tomato sauce is Perfection: not too acidic, not too sweet, letting the grand yet humble tomato shine. I chose the puttanesca, one of my favorite traditional Italian pastas. I would order this again!! Had plenty for lunch the next day. Not to be left out: the toasted ravs and cannoli. I've had a few T-ravs since moving to StL, and these are excellent. The tomato sauce for dipping, once again, is a real treat. The cannolis? Precious, flaky, and dreamy. I ate one at our table and took the second bad boy home. FIRE.

    Went with a large party and one gal took care of all of us and Leann did an AMAZIN job!!! This place is authentic Italian food and has some STL classics too. Like they have really good Toasted Ravioli. Their Meatball Pasta was also really good. Handmade meatballs and pasta, soooooo good! The place is small but they keep everyone spread out really well. It is open and has a modern flair to it. It is a great place to break bread. The food was a little pricey but for handmade pasta, it was understandable.

    Came here with a friend on a Wednesday night. I was shocked at how busy it was. When we sat at our table, our waitress was super sweet and attentive. We got our bread and appetizer pretty quickly. We got the appetizer of the goat cheese and pita it was so delicious. I got the pasta con broccoli, and it was pretty good. The lasagna seemed like it took longer to cook and came out Piping hot where my pasta con broccoli wasn't necessarily hot. The lasagna came out a cute dish, which was cool. The tiramisu came out and it's not the best tiramisu I've ever had, but it was pretty good and came in a cute little glass. Solid experience on the hill.

    Anthonino's is an Stl classic for a reason. Great variety of pizzas and pastas. Service has always been good. I love to go here for drinks and pizza night.

    I came in for lunch by myself and wasnt sure what to expect. This place was really nice. I heard the pizza was good and had to see for myself. It checked out! Note they are 1 size, so you will have left over pizza unless you're with others. The salad was great also, loved the house dressing. The server was efficient, and professional. Its a really nice place (men in suits everywhere) so I felt slightly under dressed. But it was noon on a Tuesday lol so I think my Nike apparel was fine. Overall, I would definitely go back and get the toasted ravs and a pasta.

    One of our favorite restaurants on The Hill! Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. They absolutely love dogs on their patio and even partner with Ciao Chow pet store to provide your pups with "Toasted Ravioli" treats! Their food is fantastic! Everything from their Caprese Salad with Burrata to their pasta and pizza and down to their desserts. Their dining rooms are lively and the restaurant is filled with the best smells. As mentioned, big fan of their patio as it's dog friendly and is right on the side of the building, where you can watch the crowds walk by. It is covered and even has fan

    While traveling through Missouri, my wife and I were looking for a place to have dinner. I searched Yelp and came across Anthonino's. I also remembered seeing it featured on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, so we figured it had to be worth a try. When we arrived, we were asked if we had a reservation. We didn't, but noticed a few open seats at the bar and asked if we could sit there instead. The two bartenders welcomed us right away and told us they would take good care of us throughout the evening. My wife ordered an iced tea, and I started with an Old Fashioned. For an appetizer, we ordered the Toasted Ravioli ($14), which is handmade in-house and filled with ground beef, ricotta, and pecorino romano cheese, served with marinara sauce. It's one of the dishes featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. For dinner, my wife ordered the Chicken Marsala ($23), and I went with the Bolognese ($17), made with veal, pork, red wine gravy, cresta di gallo pasta, stracciatella, and Calabrian chili oil. The toasted ravioli arrived looking great. I tried one without the sauce first. The fresh pasta didn't fry up quite the way I expected. It was more flaky than crispy, and I was hoping for a little more crunch. The filling was decent but could have used a bit more seasoning and flavor. The marinara sauce also had a bitterness to it that wasn't my favorite. When our entrées arrived, both dishes looked and smelled wonderful. Unfortunately, the flavors didn't quite live up to the presentation. My wife's Chicken Marsala had good flavor overall, but the side pasta was very gummy, and the sauce again had a bitter note that seemed to overpower the dish. My Bolognese was the biggest disappointment of the evening. When I think of Bolognese or a rich meat ragù, I usually expect a wider pasta such as pappardelle. The cresta di gallo pasta wasn't my favorite choice for the dish, and it also had a gummy texture. The sauce itself suffered from the same bitterness that we noticed throughout the meal. Looking back, I probably should have ordered the Carbonara once I realized the Bolognese wasn't being served with the type of pasta I was hoping for. Overall, the meal was okay, but it didn't quite meet the expectations we had after seeing the restaurant featured on television and reading the reviews. The service was excellent, and the bartenders did a fantastic job taking care of us. While this visit was a bit disappointing, there were plenty of other dishes on the menu that looked great, and I would be willing to give Anthonino's another try and order something different.

    Went here for dinner and everything was really tasty! We had a reservation which was smooth and easy, it seemed to be pretty filled up on a Wednesday. The pizza was incredible and the homemade pesto was awesome. The server was really nice. It is nice place and you could wear a cute outfit on the inside it looks like a modern Italian restaurant.

The salad came out first and was very good, fresh and not overloaded with dressing. Good size to split with someone as a side, or as a meal on its own. The pizza came out soon after and was hot from the oven with a great crust! Perfect with some added red pepper flake and parm! We layout of the place is simple, with a self server area for water, plastic wear and napkins, you also clean up your own table when you are done. I did feel a bit misled when we were ordering beer, as my wife wanted a dark beer and they didn't have anything on draft. After talking with the people working there for a bit, they remembered that they had some Hazel Ave, which is a dark beer. They asked if she liked coconut, as it has that flavor in it. She does and was happy to hear they had something that would work for her. They rang us up and then asked if we wanted 2 glasses, which I thought was odd, since I had ordered a different beer. Then I saw the other person opening a 750 mo bottle and realized that the Hazel Ave is the size of a full bottle of wine. It's also $40 which was an unpleasant surprise, and I only learned after it had been rung up and opened. About that time, they realized that my beer hadn't been rung in and asked if I wanted it still. Having just spent more on the beer than our food, I declined. It's a very dark been that also has a strong hazel it flavor, which we didn't know (and she doesn't like). Live and learn I guess, but not a great first visit. Food was good enough that we might try it again, but will be very careful/skip ordering drinks if we come back!

It arrived pretty close to on time (they gave me a link to an app and told me the delivery time), pizza was still steaming and dessert was still warm. I ordered a hand tossed cheese pizza with ham. It was very good, not overcooked, not undercooked and definitely not burned which in the past 3-4 years more than half of my delivered pizzas showed up with burnt crust or cheese. The cinnamon sticks were very good, but I don't see how one could mess them up, cook the dough, cover with cinnamon sugar and pour on icing. The price was pretty much as expected, so many delivery places have a service charge, a delivery charge, and ask for a tip. Honestly I can't figure out how the money is divided up, eating in I tip the server and they give the bus team something, the bar tender, and the kitchen staff do they get anything? In delivery the only people are the driver, the person that boxes the order, and the kitchen staff. So if the service charge stays in house am I paying $1.50 to put the pizza in a box? The delivery fee is stand alone so who gets the tip? I asked this of one of the many pizza apps and they never did flat out tell me how the money works. Anyway, the pizza was timely, hot, good sauce and meat, not cut into squares (haha an StL thing) and the dessert was very good. Again I had the hand tossed, not the thin crust. They used a delivery service to have it dropped off.

No - its fine, better than chain pizza for sure; and I think they are a little heavy handed on the toppings. Also I wish they put the peps on top of the cheese (personal preference).
