andrew beach: Great dining experience- Italian chopped salad a must! If you like lasagna, you’ll LOVE Charlie Gitto’s lasagna!

Marcia Clement: Great food although the red sauce is not my favorite. Very nice atmosphere. Make reservations!

Alan Musk: great time had by all!

Christie Del Re: They made it extremely evident that they don’t care about people dining solo, as was made clear during the entirety of my visit. From the rude host trying to get me to eat at the bar when I made a reservation, to the tucked away corner table in the far back of the restaurant, to the server who shifted focus on larger tables. As someone who travels for work frequently and often dines alone, I expect the same level of service and attention that a larger party would. On top of that, the food came extremely quick, an indication that it is not made fresh, and very over-peppered to the point that it needed to be remade. I did not want the dish anymore, and the server pushed me to have them remake it so I could take it with me (in an attempt to ensure I would still pay for it), needless to say, I gave it to a homeless man after I left.For being one of the most popular Italian restaurants in St. Louis, and not super busy, I would have expected a better experience. Will not be returning, I will choose one of the many other Italian restaurants nearby.

First Place Cuisine: Great food (Vodka martini, lobster bisque/salmon, creme brûlée ), server wasn’t friendly though which I don’t understand bc it’s a customer service job to begin with.

Steve Singer: Lasagna was terrificChocolate Fudge cake was great, but actually not as good as it had been in the pastI've always gone to the now temporarily closed Chesterfield location (due to storm damage and remodeling) and I think the Lasagna was even better On the Hill versus Chesterfield and I didn't think that was possible. Chesterfield's Lasagna has a sweet flavor thrown in and I liked that but The Hill's Lasagna is denser and probably has more meat

Jordan Reed: Went here for my 2 year anniversary one of the boys that run the food out was really musty me and my date both smelled him. Server was joe it’s like he was forcing us to order expensive drinks ! food was okay will not be returning never ever !!!!

India Simpson: I enjoyed a nice solo dinner here on Easter. Although I was late for my reservation, they sat me with no problem. The seafood risotto and cream spinach were delicious. The wine menu here can be a little overwhelming, so I really appreciated the manager's (who is also a sommelier) paring suggestion.

Gregory Beck: We had a large group of 20 and made the reservation early. They made us a shorten menu, the food was good but expensive $55 for a small filet. I made the reservation and agreed to pay for 3 appetizers but my bill came out considerably more than what I was expecting. I thought maybe since I made the reservation and brought all the people into the restaurant that I would get a discount instead I got over charged.

Eyreka Peterson: Edited 9/19/2022 to add that it is not shocking that this placed caught fire. Like I said below, major systemic issues.I wasn't going to write a review, but the service I received on a Friday evening (8/26/22) was so bizarre I've been thinking about it all weekend. I called the Thursday prior to inquire about reservations for 3:00 p.m. drinks and dinner. I was assured that it would be so slow at 3 that reservations would not be needed. I arrived at 3 p.m. with a party of 4 and no one was in the lobby or bar area so we waited around. A woman came through the door from outside on a mission and stopped in her tracks and asked "do you need something". Not rude, but certainly not kind. We explained we were there for drinks and dinner and she let us know there was no waitstaff to help us yet. Cool, I've worked food service before, I know how it goes right at opening. We asked if we could start with drinks and apps and were directed with a curt finger that it was outside. The bartender asks if we're going to order drinks and food, we say yes and order. We start towards the tables in the dining area and the bartender tells us we should sit in the bar area so she can bring out our apps. I let her know I need to sit at a low top table and there are none in the bar area. We proceed to sit at the table closest to the bar in the dining area. We are only there for a few minutes before she comes over to tell us that the table is reserved. There are zero people in the dining area. It's 3:20 p.m. I let her know that we're planning on ordering dinner and that I can't sit in a high top table. She assures us she has something over in her section. She seats us at a cheap cabana couch, directly in the sun (it's 98 degrees out) out on the deck. It has a tiny table that our drinks and apps barely fit on. We are boiling. We finish our apps and drinks and decided not to stay for dinner (because how even at that table). As we're leaving there are 2 tables seated in the dining area. No reason for us to have been moved. The drinks were great, the food that we had was delicious, the service was the absolute strangest thing I've ever come across. I'm willing to make excuses for 1 person having a tough afternoon and providing subpar service - it happens. When it's multiple people and multiple instances - that's systemic.

Brittany Griffith: Many thanks to Mike and the manager for making our day. The service was good and prompt. See you again soon :)

Malcomn Roach: Still a good place for Sunday brunch. Prime rib is awesome

beautybyraelynn: The women at reception was insanely rude to my group. I felt like I was dreaming… she ruined our evening from the moment we walked in. I never write reviews but I couldn’t help myself.

Ryan Daigle: Always a delicious meal. We've been going here for about 12 years and they always impress!

D M: Absolutely perfect brunch. Danita was our wait staff person today and she was wonderful!

Salvatore Scotto: Nice place, good dinner, staff friendly.

Issa Lifestyle 1: There was mouse droppings on the table. No one working there even attempted to cleaned it up. Horrible first impression. The hostess working Sunday 8/28 around 10:15am did not greet us when we arrived, she said something to a server then continued to eat her bacon. I said "hello" and she replied, "Can I help you?". Immediately I felt the quality of the experience sink to fast food level. I let her know we were there for brunch she asked "Do you have a reservation?" "No we do not." She shoveled the last of her bacon into her mouth, grabbed 2 menus with her hands she just put in her mouth and walked away. We reluctantly followed hoping to recover the ambience of the experience but at this point we are already not feeling welcome. We were guided through a small bar area and sat near a window in the back of the room. Immediately we noticed the droppings on the table, but the hostess had already gone back to the host stand. We never even sat down. I walked back to the host stand to bring the issue to the bacon eating hostess' attention to which she said 'it isn't feces or else we would be shut down'. I advised her that was exactly why I came to tell her instead of taking a picture. Her reply was "Go ahead take a picture cause it's not that." I replied,"OK I will." The person I was with had to ask for a different table, it was not offered to us by the hostess. She said 'the only other space I have is this or that', pointing toward a table in the corner by the door of the room we had just left. We walked over to the table ourselves. As I noticed she was not going to formally seat us, so I took it upon myself to retrieve the menus we left at the poop table and of course to take the photos of the mouse droppings on the table and in the window seal as suggested by the hostess (see attached). It took us about 10 minutes to find a different place to go for brunch; the entire time no one attempted to investigate or clean up the mess we reported. As we left the manager tried to speak to us but it was too late. I couldn't leave that place fast enough. People deserve to have a choice what environment their food is in especially during pandemic times. Definitely looks like rat sh't!!! I will not return.

Michael Wallace: Weather made it perfect. Their rooftop experience is top notch. And their servers are attentive

Jim Williamson: Rooftop bar with a view of the arch

Grant Young: Just stepped out of Vin De Set and couldn’t have been more displeased. We showed up at open, after being advised to do so on a Friday as it will get busy. So we showed up and got ignored until we told the hostess we’d like to have a drink and apps. After being pointed to the bar, through the window, we headed over. One party doesn’t deal well with high top chairs, so we headed to a 4 too under shade after being told “I won’t be able to give you service but that’s okay, I’ll till serve you”So we sat in the shade and maybe 3 minutes later we’re told the entire area was reserved and we had to sit in the sunniest area of the roof top. Had we not ordered, we would have left.This was the oddest and most uncomfortable experience I’ve had in any restaurant, not just in St Louis.If you want bad service, rude staff, and to be lied to, accompanied with honestly good food and cocktails - this is your spot.

Suzie Scrivner: This is my second time here. The food is great! Courtney our server and Bryson the bartender were wonderful. The woman at the hostess stand made me feel like I was intruding. She even came to me and my table at the end of the night to let me know that they were closing at 10. I did not see her tell any of the other patrons that they were closing. I will not come back to this place. We spent over $500 and felt like we were being kicked out early. There were four of us. We asked who she was and were told her name was Sharee. We still had full drinks and desserts. Please put a smile on your face when you are greeting customers. Don’t make them feel like they are not welcome.

Beverly: What happened? Last year we had a lovely birthday dinner with wonderful food; the set menu was fabulous, and the staff were incredibly attentive. This year it was just… bad. The baked brie with strawberry-basil marmalade would have benefited from a more generous serving of the marmalade, but that was forgivable. The coq au vin was absolutely flavorless and dry—confusing given that the dish is literally cooked in red wine. Interestingly, it was served on the same dish shape as the steak even though there was liquid on the dish (still somehow flavorless). The veggies were reminiscent of those served in an elementary school cafeteria. The strip steak was overdone, and the best that I can say about it is that it can be used in leftovers. (Un)happy birthday!

Janeth Hernandez: We had the steak and frites very disappointing. The steak was so fatty and tasted like burnt rubber. Drinks were bland and below average. Prices are far too high for the quality of food. We’ve even been here twice because we really wanted to like it since it is walking distance from our house. Never leave reviews but felt like I should.

Steve McCormick: I feel like it is overpriced. $33.00 / person for a 3 course brunch. They used to have a brunch buffer that was worth 33.00. The service was excellent.

Coleen Hill: Excellent staff, food and rooftop view! One of my very favorite St Louis restaurants. We have not had a bad meal yet. Also wonderful desserts!

cufta05: We dropped in based on a Google search on restaurant with a terrace. Also, we thought it would be possible to order a coffee because of the French restaurant. Unfortunately, our thinking was wrong. The quality of the coffee was terrible. The service was bad. The employees together with the manager did not seem to know where to put us. We wandered around to find an area for "coffee drinkers". The manager who was on duty did not care when we told her that the coffee was terrible. Overall C-Coffee 1.5/10Service 5.5/10

Cheryl Andrews: Great food and service

Mark Leibu: Probably better for dinner. Sunday brunch, so and vs so

Eric W Thompson: Good view outside on the roof. Fine food with attentive service. Prime rib was awesome.

Khalid Mundwiller: I'm sorry, I'm not sure why everyone is reaching about this place. We went last night and had a gritty, undercooked steak (it literally couldn't melt the terrible butter they put on top) and 4 small raviolis and the worst gooey butter cake I've had in STL (maybe they missed the first word, gooey, because this was just cake). $90 for this. I'm sorry, there are so many better choices in STL. I was REALLY excited to try this place based on all the positive reviews and NOTHING I had was very good (the wild boar ravioli was the best thing and even it was not great at all). I hate giving negative reviews and I probably should have sent the steak back, so that's on me. Server was very nice and we still tipped her accordingly, but the food was not good AT ALL.

Jorden N: I swear the STL food journalism scene has something against the Hamiltons group, because this was yet another amazing place the journalists don’t bother mentioning.Everything was just so spot on. The only fleck of meh-ness was the Cesar salad, but even then it was like being the dumbest kid in the talented/gifted class- getting an A- when everyone else gets an A+

Carey B: I find it incredibly rude to answer the phone and scream “I CAN’T HEAR YOU” and then hang up when someone is calling to make reservations. I hadn’t even had a chance to talk when I was yelled at and hung up on. I wish I were kidding when I say that this happened with three phone calls made today where the exact same person answered, yelled at me, and hung up.

Aaron Moore: "Great vibe!" That's the term I'll use to describe this place. Eleven Eleven Mississippi is intimate enough for a chill date night, quiet enough for engaging conversation. Yet large enough for a big group to celebrate a birthday with your friends.I had dinner with a friend and we enjoyed the ravioli for a starter which I highly highly recommend. As my entree, I enjoyed the Chicken Diablo Fusilli. Prepared to perfection and just a little bite. I made reservations and was seated right away. The server was attentive, engaged in fun banter, and displayed strong knowledge of the menu. I will go again and again! I recommend you do the same.Parking: Parked right around the corner of the restaurant. There was an adequate amount of parking.

AddJustin: I couldn't find anything to complain about. It was wonderful. The menu was awesome, everything was good and I can't wait to return. It was clean, plenty of space to travel through and visually interesting to look around. Local celebrity hotspot for sure. Staff was very nice and welcoming. There's an outside section which will be great for the coming summer months!

Gretchen Dobbs: My boyfriend and I have been here several times, sat in the dining area, and have had wonderful experiences so far with the servers, which is the only reason I’m giving this place 2 stars. We came in this evening 4/27 and sat at the bar to have some food and drinks but we were completely ignored by the older female bartender with wavy hair- she didn’t even bother to tell us her name. She was blatantly giving us poor service, checking in frequently and having conversation with the patrons directly next to us. She was not busy in the slightest but couldn’t bother to look at us. This went on for over 30 minutes. This made us so upset we decided to leave before ordering our food. Very disappointed and surprised.

Gennie Palmer: The first time I dined at 11/11 Mississippi was with my parents when I was 12 years old. I fell in love with this restaurant. I’ve had my 14th, 18th, 21st, 23rd, 25th, & 29th birthday dinners here with my family and friends, and also for other celebrations over the years. I most recently dined here for fun in March 2023. The cuisine is always delicious, the staff are excellent, timing is always smooth but never rushed, the atmosphere and energy is positive, and I always look forward to the experience. I hope to dine at 11/11 Mississippi for many more years to come.Parking: very easy to find parking or have a drop-off/pick-up by Uber/Lyft

Both said you could cut with fork, that tender. 3 servings of twice baked potatoes...once we saw them we had to order! No room for dessert, although each looked too good to eat. Food topped only by the attentive, but not intrusive wait staff. Can simply not add enough accolades...try Carmines as your special foodie treat!

We all ordered it. He suggested wine that paired very well with the steak. The service he provided for our dinner was beyond our expectations. He is a great kid and needs to know that. He had humor and joked with us the whole time. While doing this, he still was very professional and ensured his other tables had the same experience.Great kid. I hope this establishment can hire more kids like him.

Mollie Norris: My food was delicious and it was perfect!Parking: Very multiple places to park

Cristian Begazo: Delicious and amazing service by J!!From the moment we were seated, J provided us with exceptional service. He was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. He took the time to explain the various options and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. All four or us took his recommendation for the porterhouse Steak! Which was phenomenal!Throughout the course of our meal, J continued to impress us with his professionalism and attention to detail. He checked on us regularly to ensure that we had everything we needed, and he even made some great recommendations for wine pairings.The highlight of the meal, however, was J's genuine warmth, hospitality and sense of humor. He made us feel welcome and comfortable throughout the entire dining experience, and we could tell that he truly cared about making our meal memorable.Overall, I would highly recommend J as a server at Carmines Steakhouse. He is an asset to your team and truly made our dining experience one to remember.

Scott BIEDERMAN: Very nice meal Sea bass was great 👍 Bethany hosting the place sold us on the place.. We we're on our to Ruth Chris steak house and she turned us around. Everyone in our party enjoyed themselves. 😉

Richard Hamilton: Place was great. Food was good and the service was excellent.I had mussels and they weren't the best. I think I'm building a habit of ordering seafood in the Midwest and expecting more than can be reasonably provided. My wife had the burger and our friend had steak. Everything was good to great.We'll be back.

Bob Cymber: We specifically reserved a table for 2 at the Brass Bar, and it was obvious that they forgot and tried to bus a table ready for us. Had to wait a bit for our table, but the food and service was good.However, if you are going to reminisce about the amazing experience from Taste Bar, I think you will be disappointed. I wish Taste Bar was still here 😩

Amazing customer service from our waiter and well-balanced cocktails from the bartender. We dined here last night on 4/22, thank you for the exceptional experience.

Diane A: Yes the barbecue was good, but BBQ is usually good - even if dry you can always add sauce. Unfortunately for us the experience was disappointing. The sign outside said they were sold out of ribs and salmon. We’d never been here before and had to wait until it was almost our turn to order to see the menu (meat menu was hidden in the corner, not on the overhead chalkboards). Then they were also out of mac and cheese. We ordered a beer - yep, out of that too. Last but mot least, I got a skimpy portion of the brisket (someone behind me got twice as much so it’s not always skimpy).

Brandon Norris: I will start by saying they were out of ribs by the time we got there. But I hope that is their staple, because the rest of the food was very average. The only thing that was really great was the pecan pie. Brisket was dry. At least there is no shortage of sauces at the table. Overall I was unimpressed. I’ve had better bbq only 10 minutes from here. And I would make that 10 minute drive for it.

Cashea S.: Wow! We have tried BBQ everywhere and this may just be the best of the best. The place sells out so don't be surprised if you go and they are closed. I've never gone to a BBQ joint where I had food leftover. Usually you get just enough or even maybe leave hungry depending on the place. Nooooo not here! Everything is SO good. The brisket and ribs are phenomenal. The ribs are fall off the bone-ish. They still require your teeth, but they rip right off. The flavor profiles are amazing for everything too. The pulled pork is moist and juicy. The ribs and brisket speak for themselves. The barbecue sauce selection is freaking amazing. All except the coffee one. Gag! The sides are great! Mustard potato salad, a different take on baked beans, and delicious au gratin potatoes. The rest of the sides look good too! The drink selection was nice as they had all your sodas and iced teas, as well as pina colada and hibiscus flavored waters. The only downfall was the bathrooms. They were in need of major attention. The customer service was good. I don't know if they were tired, but as first time visitors we were clearly lost on how to order and nobody said anything. Outside of that, I would 100% come back to this one or another location when in the area.

Corey Durham: My favorite BBQ place in St. Louis!!! Excellent food and sides. You order and walk through a line cafeteria style but the food is amazing. You need to get there early if you are wanting ribs as they are epic and sell out quickly.Parking: Parking is difficult as it is in downtown St. Louis, there are a few parking garages within a quarter mile walk and there are parking meters in the streets.

Susan Johnson: Just attended a party that had your beef brisket, pulled pork, baked beans and slaw as part of the food choices. We were blown away! The brisket was so tender and the baked beans were delicious. I am from New England and my family and I tried another place earlier in the week and were very "underwhelmed" to say the least. Your food was fantastic and the man who delivered all the food was so nice!!! The choice of side sauces did not disappoint! The next time we visit the area we will definitely visit your establishment. Had some leftover brisket the day after the party and it was still moist and tender!!

Becky Burk: Delicious barbeque. We got the meat daddy that come with 5 meats, two sides, and a drink. The smoked brisket and the sausage link was amazing. The pulled pork and the ribs(we got two orders of ribs with the choose 5) were delicious. We added an extra side, extra drink, and hush puppies for a total (after tip) of about $53. It was absolutely worth the wait and money. The meat daddy was more than enough food for 2.I liked how they have all their sauces on the table so you can try all of them. The sweet St. Louis and the honey badger ones were our favorite.Shout out to the gentleman working the order line for suggesting the 5 meat plate. We were going to get the 3 meat and a full rack, both of which comes with 2 sides and a drink, but he told us the meat daddy would be basically what we wanted and saved us money. We were going to the Cardinals game, and would not have been able to take left overs with us so that was fantastic.
