Entrance and patio
Erika H.

Delicious Pizza, and wings! Hubby found this place on yelp and decided this was where we were going for dinner. He definitely picked a hidden gem. This place is a well loved, family owned Pizzeria. They decorated their walls with STL sports memorabilia and combination of their family pictures.They have plenty of seating inside (limited seating on the pizzeria side, but ample seating inside the bar) and a small patio with a few tables and chairs.There is a full service bar on the other-side. We ordered a STL style sausage and bacon pizza. It was absolutely delicious. The pizza sauce wasn't too sweet and very flavorful, and there was no need to ask for extra sauce. The crunch of the crust was just right. The wings were my favorite. We got them tavern style. They were cooked just right, slightly crunchy, but yet tender. The sauce on the wings was Smokey and tangy, with a little spice. We will definitely be back again, and next time enjoy the patio!!

Chicken Wings
Carson D.

A locally owned gem in St.Louis. The owner greeted us upon arrival and took our order shortly after. We decided on BBQ chicken wings, house salad, and a St.Louis thin crust supreme pizza for the table. It didn't take long to get our food. The wings had a tangy BBQ sauce and were cooked to perfection. The salad ingredients were fresh with a creamy house Italian dressing. The pizza was delicious. Nice crispy crust not to thin with extra melty cheese on top. This was a dine-in experience, and I was very happy with everything. A great choice to eat in or order to-go!

Wings
Ryan B.

Trying to find the best pizza and wings in the greater Saint Louis area and I'm only reviewing pizza with sausage as the topping. Wings: 7.2 flavorful and cooked right but not the best I've had. But I'd still order them again. Pizza: 7.0 One corner had sausage but also peperoni so I'm rating based on that. It's still a good pizza but again not the greatest. If I'm in the area and close by I'd still come back here to have pizza again. they didn't understand my request of hald sausage half supreme. They instead removed the sausage from one half of the supreme.

Chicago style with pepperoni

Inside was a spacious bar with tons of tvs to watch the games. I ordered out and the pizza was ready right when it was supposed to be. The pizza was super cheesy and flavorful. It was pretty greasy, next time I would not get pepperoni to decrease the grease.

Sports memorabilia.

I heard this place has one of the best Chicago deep dish pizza in the area so I had to check them out. I will have to say their deep dish was a solid strong choice. The service was not bad but keep in mind there is limited seating space in the dining area unless you go to their bar area to eat. However, on a comfortable weather day you could sit on the patio. This is a definite recommend if you like the deep dish style but keep in mind there is only one size (10in) but for the price point you could buy more. I also had the house salad and it was good too, and it appears they may make their own house dressing which my wife enjoyed. This feels like a good spot to go to if you could take off early to eat and watch a Cardinals game. The sport memorabilia was cool and even noticed an old sign from Sportsman's Park in the dining area.

Very good pizza and pasta choices. Tuesday pizza special is worth the drive. Staff was very friendly, attentive, and helpful. We will return!

The cutest little shot glasses I've seen!

It's been years since we've been to Bono's and I can say I'm so glad we went back! On one side was a small little eating area with a few booths where a family can go in and eat and on the other side is a bar. We ate on the bar side. The bartender was very friendly and made a great jolly rancher shot for us. We ordered the Bono's special pizza and it was really good. The crust was thin and crispy and the toppings were flavorful. We decided to try the tavern wings (the sauce is a mix of hot sauce and bbq sauce) and they were yummy! I'm a bit picky about my wings, I prefer crispy and not slimy and these were perfectly crispy. This is definitely a spot we will be adding to our rotation to frequent more often.

I happened upon Bono's a few months back and I now believe that it is the best deep dish pizza in South City. The service is very friendly.

Ask the Community - Bono's Pizzeria

If you had to pick one, what's the best crust type?

New York is my favorite!

Is the ambience ok for children? Do they offer provel?

Yes, it would be fine for kids. Two rooms that share an entry way, one is the dining room and the other is the bar. I assume in the evenings the bar is a lively place. I dont know about the provel. The chicago style I had was wonderful.

What is the Spinjunie pizza?

The spinjunie is made on a hand tossed crust with melted cheese on crust, then topped with a tomato filet sauce and then your choice of toppings, one thing though there is a little anchovy kick to, you can do it with or without

The bartenders pour like they're trying to help you forget your ex, (and it worked for me-true story) the music somehow makes you think you can dance, and the crowd feels like a family reunion where nobody's related but everyone's having a great time! Came for one drink, stayed for five, left with three new friends and a strong suspicion I was part of someone else's karaoke video!

While in St Louis I was told I had to try the baked/fried ravioli and Claude mentioned Mama's on…read moreThe Hill as the place that invented this quirky product. Mama's is in the Little Italy area of St Louis and the neighborhood is very charming and well laid out but not ostentatiously. There is ample sidewalk seating and inside seating. Luckily Mama's has a small bar inside with seats as this place was busy on Sunday night. I took a seat at the bar and ate there. I had great service from the two friendly bartenders during my visit. I had the famous ravioli along with a glass of Chianti which always goes well with red sauces. For the ravioli I had the half meat and half cheese selection. The order was served piping hot and with a generous bowl of tasty marinara sauce for dipping. After using a fork for the first one, I switched back to using my hands for the remainder of the order. These ravioli were tasty and well made with a light coating and dusted with parsley but I didn't get the hype. Maybe it's just a St Louis thing? I really think if I return here one day, I'll also try the other Italian dishes offered as they looked awesome as the went by my seat (I was next to the kitchen). I really loved the marinara sauce that was served with my ravioli and that is always a good sign of good food at an Italian restaurant. Mama's has a lot of charm and great staff and is super popular in this seemingly cohesive community. A great place to visit.

How thoughtful! Can't wait to get this again. 5) Spumoni 8/10 - Tasted great, just served in such a small dish, it made it difficult to eat at first and was melting over the sides of the bowl right at the start. Couldn't dig the spoon in easily for fear of it pushing right out of the bowl. 6) Lemoncello Cake - Perfect for someone like me who loves lemon cake. Not overly sweet - just right. Serving size was perfect for an individual. 7) Chocolate Cake - Perfect serving size for one, my friend had this, so I'll definitely try it next time. This was our first visit. We have now downloaded the restaurant's mobile app and plan on placing future takeout and delivery orders as well.

They have an extensive food menu too -- the smashburger, brussel sprouts salad, and birria fries were our favorites (I'll have to get pictures next time as the food flew off the table!).

There's plenty of indoor seating and lots of TVs, so perfect for catching a game. You can also reserve a small section if you're looking for a place to host an event.

There is a free parking lot and a huge patio that, unfortunately I think, faces the highway. There are a few businesses around it but it feels rather industrial. The location is convenient to Forest Park, the Medical Center and South City via Kingshighway or Hampton. Plenty of seating both inside and on the patio. It was extremely hot outside so we were seated inside, in the "Garden Room." This room has lots of windows (no garden) and got extremely hot during the stay. I guess the AC couldn't keep up with us. This is a brewery so they have lots of beer options. I can't speak to the quality of the beer. Since I have Celiac Disease, I checked ahead of time and made sure that I saw lots of wine on their drink menu as well. Since it was 4PM when I arrived, I asked about any happy hour specials. Sadly, they told me there were only beer happy hour specials, no wine specials. I ordered a glass of white wine from their menu and got what I thought was a small pour of an only so-so glass for the price. I did like that you order your drinks in a separate line, and you can pay as you go like I did or start a tab. This is great for a large group like ours. You can also order food and have it delivered to your table. While this is a large venue in a convenient location, it did not feel very special.

After looking at a handful of menus on the street, we de died on Good Company. Service was great. Very attentive. They immediately asked if we had any dietary issues and then promptly after hearing out needs, made a handful of recommendations. We started with the cauliflower. It was excellent the light sauce and pine nuts really made this dish top notch. The vegetarian and GF adults then split the Caesar salad and the squash seasonal salad. Both were so flavorful, filling and entirely unique. If you're a salad eater, I'd highly recommend either one of these. The carnivore in our group ordered the Italian beef with French fries. Unfortunately they were out of the Italian beef so he had to settle on the wings. The wings were a solid lunch after an appetizer, but the sauce was not what was expected. Overall, the menu is simple, maybe 15 items in total and they probably need to have more for carnivores who are looking for something other than a hamburger and not too heavy for lunch. But for the other 2 in our group, we walked out super satisfied.

There were a few people in the dining area and a person at the bar. Our host welcomed us and asked if we had a reservation, we did not. He led us to a table and indicated our server would be with us shortly. We reviewed the menu and reading about them and their philosophy, the menu, the drink options and so forth. One of the staff behind the bar came and took our order. I stuck with water and we ordered chicken wings to share, I also got the Cucumber Tomato Salad for my meal, it sounded so fresh! Chicken wings came out fairly quick; delivered by the host who seated us. They were really good. The skin was crisp and the buffalo sauce a good flavor. We both enjoyed them. They came with a Green Goddess dressing, I am not a fan of that dressing, but the wings were good on their own. My salad came out and it was as refreshing as it sounded! It was the half salad, and it was a generous portion. Cornichon, Oven-Roasted Tomato, Crispy Shallot, Chopped Egg, and Dill Buttermilk dressing. It was perfectly dressed, and great proportions on the ingredients. My daughter ordered the Patty Melt advertised on Union Loafers bread and that clinched it for her. She indicated it was very good. The food was delivered by someone other than our server. After our food was delivered no one came back to check on us and we waited quite a while before we could get someone's attention to bring boxes and our check. While we were waiting the employees were setting up for dinner service, adding mini aperitif style glasses and then a couple came in for an early dinner and their server was so awesome, he came over and chatted with them offering samples of some kind of alcohol, he was so friendly! If we had been a little later and had him for a server, it would have changed our whole experience! We both commented that on our way out after we had eventually got settled up

It turned out to be an awesome, beautiful day to visit the zoo this past Saturday. After the zoo, we headed to The Hill for lunch. We met up at the old Amighetti's Bakery location, which is now Marconi Mercato Restaurant and Bar. This was our first time visiting the restaurant, and I was pleasantly surprised by the decor and layout. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and was a great place for our family to relax after spending the morning at the zoo. Our server, Paige, did a fantastic job taking care of our table of nine. She was friendly, attentive, and consistently checked back with us to make sure everything was good. The food was very good, and everyone at the table was happy with the quality and taste. We ordered a couple of Bishop Burgers, a Chicken sandwich, a Classic burger, Roast Beef sandwiches, and several sides, including the Insalata Italiana, Brussels sprouts, roasted potatoes, and white pasta. Since we were celebrating a birthday, we also ordered a few drinks. The food prices were in line with what I'd expect from other restaurants in the area. The drinks were a little on the higher side, but they were very good. Overall, everything turned out great. We all enjoyed the food, drinks, service, and atmosphere.

First impressions matter, and it was obvious from the moment we walked in that the hostess was miserable and our waitress was quite inexperienced. However, service was prompt. - Marconi burger: an airy and puffy bun with a generous patty that was a bit dry. This was made up for by the fact that the pork belly added an oily, salty and umami balance. The serving of pork belly was barely 2 bites - please give more! - Fries were yummy, but you could tell they were purchased from a restaurant supply store rather than being handmade. - The side of whipped mashed potatoes was fine. - Fall Panzanella Insalata: roasted apples, butternut squash, mixed greens, and goat cheese: tasted just like those ingredients and nothing more. It was also fine. The bowl was very shallow so it was hard to eat without spilling. Overall, this was a mediocre dining experience that lost the chance to be improved by great service. I would recommend more tried and true restaurants on the Hill.
