Pan d'Olive is easily one of those places that turns dinner into a full experience. From the moment we sat down, the atmosphere felt warm, welcoming, and perfect for lingering over a couple rounds of drinks. We started with the shrimp scampi, and it was bursting with flavor and cooked perfectly. The lamb shank was incredibly tender and rich, practically falling off the bone with every bite. The seafood linguine was loaded with fresh seafood and coated in a light, flavorful sauce that tied everything together beautifully. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and truly authentic to Mediterranean flavors. The service was attentive without being overbearing, which made the evening feel relaxed and enjoyable. It's the kind of place you go for a special night out but could easily become a regular favorite. Five stars all the way -- we're already looking forward to our next visit. read more

Great food and atmosphere. We had an early Valentines day dinner and it did not disappoint. The restaurant is 3 floors. The bottom more intimate for finer dining. Service was awesome. The drink menu is diverse and fun. Parking is difficult if you are dining on a busy night. We had to park in another parking lot across the street. read more

Beautiful restaurant with delicious food and service. They have outdoor seating in the front and in the back. The booth we sat in is big enough for four people and felt private with full wall on 3 sides. Food prices are pricey while drink prices are a great value. As far as shrinkflation go, I don't mind the smaller size dishes with prices staying in the $20 range. Our waitress started us off with a basket of warm complementary bread. Limoncello Collins $10 - Refreshing cocktail. Pan D'olive Martini $10 - Nice dirty martini that came with three big olives. Phyllo Cigars $7 (3) - Crispy on the outside, yummy on the inside. Baked Cannelloni $22 (2) - I asked for the white sauce on the side, both sauces were tasty. Cannelloni had great flavor and texture. Lobster Ravioli $34 - Delicious with chunks of lobster. Turkish Baklava $12 - Great dessert, two small baklava with a side of pistachio gelato. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2025 read more

I don't think Pan D'Olive gets the attention that it deserves. It offers up fantastic lunch specials, a good Happy Hour and has ambiance good enough for a romantic date night dinner. A friend and I went recently and had a delightful lunch. Of course we had adult beverages, too and were impressed with the specialty cocktail menu and prices. The lunch menu was only $14.99 per entree and we each took leftovers home. Portions are huge. I enjoyed Fried Risotto Balls and Linguini Clams. The Linguini and Clams were as good as some I have had at an Italian restaurant. My friend had, Phyllo Cigars and a Gorgonzola Burger. She loved her cigars and enjoyed the burger and fries. The fries weren't hand cut, but she said the quality was pretty good for french fries from a bag. We were seated at a high-top in the bar area and the bartender was our server. He was very attentive and made an excellent Martini for me. I'll be back for another lunch and also plan on checking out their Happy Hour in the very near future. read more

Went for Happy Hour which they have Monday through Friday 4-7! Bonus time that makes it easier to go for those that aren't out of work early. Our first visit here, nice parking lot right next to the building. We weren't sure if the side door was the way to go but it was open and the staff inside the second door, greeted us warmly and directed us to the bar area, explaining we could sit where we liked, it was first come, first served. Lots of pretty decorations and the seating was preset with plates and menus Maura was air server and was a great asset! She brought us water and told us about the menu, making recommendations. Maura was honest and friendly through our stay. The Happy Hour menu is small but has a range of selections that should please most. I ordered a Lemon Drop as my drink choice and Napolatana Flatbread. Both great choices! The drink was lemony and sweet with a great powdered sugar rim. The flatbread had 6 large pieces, each topped with mozzarella, basil a slice of tomato and a piece of fresh mozzarella. I liked to corner pieces the best with their extra crunch. Husband Paul got a diet soda and chicken wings. The wings, about 8 or so, were crispy (yum!) and the sauce was spicy and tangy. I enjoyed them but the wings were very small. Maura recommended my second drink, a Kir Royale. I had never had one and it was just sweet enough with nice pop of champagne. Great experience overall, great server, good food and drink and decent prices. read more

I recently held a Celebration of Life for my son at Pan 'D Olive. The staff went above and beyond with service and professionalism! The food was great too! I highly recommend them! read more

Service was good and that was about the only redeeming thing about this dining experience. My espresso martini was so strong and disgusting I couldn't finish it, and at $14 a cocktail I expected something a little more delicious! My friend said the same thing about her Moscow Mule and also left almost 3/4 of her cocktail on the table. The bread service was nice, but the bread was stale and chewy. My pasta dish tasted like a frozen TV dinner. I'm sad because I had high hopes for this place but I hope if I ever do come back it's during lunch because I've heard good things about the lunch menu/happy hour items! read more

Food was awesome. A lot of choices here. Great alcohol menu and dessert menu. Service and ambiance was outstanding. We will be back

Unexpectedly yum! I've lived in St. Louis most of my life and have driven past this place probably thousands of times but have never been. So when my mom and I were looking for a dinner spot, we decided to stop in. While I was a little bummed the lunch items weren't available for dinner (this is on my reading comprehension, not them), I ended up loving my spicy capellini! The menu feels a little limited and the restaurant is a bit dark and dated, but the service was great and I'm glad to have a new-to-me place to have an affordable and tasty meal. read more

Great atmosphere! This was our first visit and I was really surprised at how awesome everything was arranged inside. The host was very friendly, sat us upstairs where we had a view of the whole main level. Our server seemed busy(?), she wasn't the friendliest but I appreciated her efficiency. Wine and food all came quickly but we were slightly underwhelmed by flavor and depth of each dish. Nothing was bad by any means, maybe my expectations were just too high based on other reviews. Willing to go back to try Happy Hour, the bar looked like a really great place to hangout. read more

Great HAPPY HOUR, hours. Awesome food/wine list except they took the Prosecco off the HH menu. :( May i suggest some NA beer and wine if I'm correct and saying there are t any offered? It's obviously not expected to be included in HH. It's just nice to have the option. read more

This is my favorite happy hour spot. Great cocktails and wine available on happy hour PLUS delicious food options! Happy hour goes until 7pm so it is a great place to stop after work. I highly recommend the phyllo cigars and the Pan D'Olive flatbread. The happy hour specials are available in the bar area and seating is first come first served. I've always received great service sitting at the bar and at a table. They can accommodate large groups! read more

Let me start by saying I used to live on McCausland and go to the place about 2 years back fairly regularly. Prime happy hour and espresso martini + pistachio ice cream. I have super fond memories so decided on there for Valentine's day last month... not sure if they changed management, recipes, or are cutting costs due to the economy but unfortunately the food quality just isn't there anymore :( Very hesitant to write this review as I am aware they are locally owned and I have never had a problem with the service and the ambiance is always nice. However, the salads, scampi and beef medallions were sub-par at best... the scampi actually made me a little sick after eating and I had to share. If you are particular with your meals/going for a date night I would wait on this one... or maybe go for drinks and dessert! Still love you guys and hope this was just an off night. Edit: upon review, I am not the only one who was not impressed with Valentine's day! hoping this was a one-off read more

Pan D'olive - shrimp scampi and beef medallions - Italian Near Me - St Louis, Missouri

Lunch special. (Should have listened to Anthony Bourdain and stay away from "special" - lol). Alfredo was bland with tiny 1/4 inch sizes of chicken (very few), peas were not cooked thoroughly and bland. Friends dishes of flatbread and tilapia bland as well. Desserts were delicious (tiramisu, lemon cello cake and crème brûlée). The only reason the lemon cello cake landed on our table was because a use the waiter thought we ordered it, we did not, just spoke about it. He said he would be charged for it if we did not take it, so we did. Never, ever heard that before. Weird. Service was good otherwise. read more

I've been here many times. It's one of my faves for HH and for lunch. Seriously the lunch special is one of those hidden treasures. We came here without a reservation but luckily they had a table available. The waitstaff here is always very kind and the bussers are eager to take your dishes and give you more water. Always. We had phyllo cigars for our appetizer. Three. I wish there had been more. They were good. So good I didn't want to share. I had a Drunk Monkey. I've had this before and I've always been a fan but it didn't seem like there was enough alcohol in it. My friend had a salad. We went there a couple days ago and I'm still hearing about that salad. They didn't share so I'm going out on a limb to say it was great! The bread is sooooo soft. It's so good. I wish we were given more. Honestly, I'm guessing we could have asked for more but we didn't. That's on us. I did save part of mine to wipe up the olive oil crumbs from my trout which as usual, was FABULOUS! Also, the side of spinach not only compliments that fish perfectly but is the way spinach was intended to be made. The pieces of garlic....yum! Will I be back? Absolutely!! read more

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. They were very accommodating for our party of 8. We originally had reservations for later that evening. However, our plans were cancelled and decided to go early. The workers opened the restaurant a little early for us. They normally do not open until 5pm on a Saturday. Wait staff were excellent. We were seated upstairs. The whole inside of the restaurant is beautiful. Full bar offering. I was a little disappointed that they had few things on the menu for a vegan considering they are a Mediterranean restaurant. I ordered the spinach salad and hummus plate. A friend ordered same salad with the calamari (I do eat fish and seafood on occasion). The salad was good but small. The hummus plate was a little underwhelming but flavors were good. The hummus was a little watery. My husband ordered the strip steak special and he was very happy with his choice. The evening was nice and we didn't feel rushed to leave our table. read more

What an absolutely lovely little restaurant. I'm not really sure why I had never eaten here before but it is definitely going into regular rotation. First of all the food was delicious. They aren't attempting to be new or trendy or to break any barriers but the food is well cooked, well seasoned, and a delight to eat. It was also very affordable! Pasta dishes for less than $20?!? In this economy?! The ambience is decidedly upscale so I was expecting to see those upscale prices! They charge about the same as Pasta House, with a vibe that is more in line with a special occasion restaurant. The service was outstanding! I have several food intolerances and preferences that they easily and happily accommodated them. They were attentive but gave us space to enjoy our food and wine. 10/10 will be back! read more

Chicken Marsala was dry and a portion on the smaller side for costing $25. Definitely not worth that amount. A very small amount of veggies too which just adds to the dissapointment. A lot of sauce though! read more
