    Philly Cheesesteak with Sweet Potato Fries
    Nate T.

    I have had some very hit-or-miss experiences at Winghaven Massa's over the past couple years. I used to come here about once a month circa 2012-2015 because of the fun ambience, live music and good food. Unfortunately, the past several times I've been have been underwhelming to say the very least. The service has been poor and the food hasn't been great. After my Plan A and B both fell through last night due to extremely long wait times, I called Massa's and they had no wait, so I decided to head here. Maybe it was the lack of a dinner rush, but the server was very attentive and visited our table several times, which was a MASSIVE improvement over my recent visits. Additionally, the lead time between ordering and getting our food was only about 15 minutes, which was solid. My Philly Cheesesteak and sweet potato fries were delicious and hot when it came out. The pizza the other guest ordered (the Big Al's pizza) was also very good. Overall, this was a refreshingly good dining experience at a place that had really slipped in recent years. I've taken it off my "do not go" list and it may reenter the regular rotation if the next few visits reflect the enhanced quality of this visit.

    Decided to stop by for Saturday night dinner, the place was so busy and packed but we got seated pretty fast. We decided to sit outside, their patio is nicely lit and looks over what looks like a fountain. Service was a bit lackluster and took a while to get everything but the food was good enough that I would come back and give the service another try! The chicken Alfredo sauce was a bit watery but still had good flavor to it, the meatball sandwich was a great portion and it was delicious, the Caesar salad was huge and filled me right up! All in all, we will be back when we are back in town!

    I stopped by Massa's on a road trip and was looking to try the famous toasted ravioli in the area. It's hard to describe the exact vibes of this place, but I was feeling a bit of mardi-gras energy. There was a happy hour special where one could get a half order, so I went with the half toasted ravioli and the half jalapeno mac n cheese balls. The toasted ravioli had a lot of breading to it. You could hardly tell any pasta was involved, but that doesn't mean the taste was any less! Just expect a drier mouth even with the (quite small) side of sauce they serve it with. The ravioli could do with a bit more filling as well. A whole lot of crunch, but not much else. Those jalapeno mac n cheese balls outshone the toasted ravioli for miles! I could taste jalapeno in these balls, not just the mere essence of spicy. Each ball was piping hot and had the perfect level of gooey cheese. I'd recommend this side. For the main dish, the buffalo chicken sandwich caught my eye. It came with a side of less-than-impressive fries, but the chicken more than made up for it. Never have I had a buffalo chicken that was so juicy and flavorful. It was served on a more baguette-type bread rather than the traditional bun. The sandwich could do with a pickle or two but was otherwise delicious. The waitress was excellent at stopping by to see if anything extra was needed and filling water. It was her second day apparently, and any confusion was made up with her friendliness!

    Service quick on a lunch pick up order. They give u fresh authentic Italian food. Even the fresh loaf of bread with real butter was to die for. I went to the O'Fallon location which was a small spot but mouth watering spell in that place would make u come back for more.

    Great service but chicken piccata was bland no flavor and chicken was tough. I told the server and didn't seem to care.

There's both tables and booths along the walls. If you're in a larger party I def recommend calling ahead. We've had cocktails here, chicken parm sandwich, grilled chicken panino sandwich, fratellis salad, chicken Alfredo, tutto mare, spaghetti, the al formaggio, and the affogato. Everything has been delicious, fresh, and hot! The only complaint I'd make is that although it says panini for sandwiches they aren't the traditional paninis that are pressed & grilled but instead are just sandwiches so that was disappointing to find out after the fact. The staff are so friendly and attentive we hadn't been for almost 2 months and our waitress still remembered us & what I usually order. I love getting the al formaggio but instead of ravioli I get fettuccine, I love being able to have a portion of all 3 yummy sauces they have. Overall a great restaurant! I love that it's family owned, fresh ingredients, and a lot of stuff made from scratch (complimentary bread is yummy). My only true complaint would be that they don't sell that creamy Italian dressing by the bottle, would totally buy it all the time it's so yummy! Anytime we're in the area we'll be stopping by.

Even though we were 25 minutes early, our table was ready and we were immediately seated. We were greeted warmly upon arrival and also minutes after we were seated by our server. Our server was friendly and efficient. Drinks were delivered and refilled, as necessary. The ambiance is casual and comfortable. The decor is simple and tasteful. We waited a reasonable amount of time for our food, which was delivered hot and tasty. The only dish that wasn't 100% was my Chicken Spedini. I have had it there once before and it was amazing. This time, the lemon sauce was thick and sweet. Last time it was lemony and buttery. Otherwise, the Veal Parm was perfect, as were all of the other dishes. This is a nice restaurant with great service and quality cooked and tasting food.

This place was amazing. I've been recommending it since. We spared none and got literally too much food because we couldn't decide what we wanted. And no shame. I'm so glad we did. We shared appetizers, a salad, pizza, and a pasta. And woah. Everything we tasted was fantastic. I don't think there's anything bad on the menu. If you're looking for a dinner spot, look no further. Great cocktails as well. Highly, highly recommend.

Hands down, Erio's takes pride, not only in their food, but making sure that customers are satisfied with their order and secured in the knowledge that, they'll go above and beyond to make sure your experience and expectations is ! DoorDash also deserves praise as well! Again, 5 stars and 2 thumbs up is definitely deserved!

Dinner for the four of us usually runs between $125 and $175, depending upon apatizers, dinner selections, drinks and desserts. This evening was a rare disappointmemt because the service by our waiter Alex was substandard. If it weren't for the owner coming over to finally take our dinner order, we were on the verge of getting up and leaving. Thank goodness the receptionist was gracious enough to refill our drinks and get us more bread, because our server was nowhere to be found. I had to flag down another server to place our dessert order and someone else to finally get our check. Admittedly, this is the first time we've ever had such a poorly trained server at this restaurant. And I am hopeful he will be properly trained. Therefore, I continue to give Erio's an excellent review - for now.
