    1/2 Meatball and Lasagna!
    Shawn V.

    This is a STL classic place that you have to watch what you order since there are some really good and then some things like the Tomato bisque and it just did not look good nor taste good apparently. I got the Meatball 1/2 sandwich and lasagna and they were both good! I think for 20 bucks it needed bigger meatballs. Lasagna excellent taste and super chzy!! Great place to go for lunch and their original sandwich is a must!

    Amighetti's is always a hit, love the turkey special with everything. Wish the baggy of chips was larger and the sandwich fillings didn't squeeze out as you ate, but that's a small price to pay for delicious.

    A St. Louis tradition born on The Hill... a famous Italian immigrant community in the City. The fresh baked bread, quality meats, peppercini and special secret sauce makes the sandwich incredible!

    Sandwich

    It was very good. Got an italian sandwich, and a salad. Got take out, and the employees were very kind when I went in to pick it up.

    Amighettis loaded special with pepper jack. 2 orders of toasted raviolis. Garlic bread.

    Today I ordered the loaded special sandwhich with pepper jack cheese and it was delicious. It is a big sandwich that is fairly priced. I also had the toasted ravioli and they were good but could have been better. I always look forward to having them when I'm in St. Louis so these hit the spot but remember them being better. Super crispy but could have had more flavor. We also tried the garlic bread and it could have been a little more crispy for my liking. The service was good but took awhile to come out. Plenty of seating inside and out and they also offer curbside pick up. If you're looking for a good a sandwich I'd highly recommend this place.

    Came in on a Friday afternoon, it was empty. The young lady at the register greeted us immediately and was super helpful and patient while I decided on what to order! She told me how the special was the most popular and it was listed the menu as "world famous" she also let me try their signature spread; it was like a mix between mayo and pickle relish, creamy and tangy but it was good. I opted for the "build your own," with turkey, salami and ham. I got my daughter the grilled cheese sandwich kids meal. My sandwich was BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED; stacked perfectly, ingredients very fresh. But the sandwich itself was nothing to write home about. Literally just... a sandwich. The sauce was barely there, so it was just cold meats and cheese in each bite. I could have gotten the same sandwich from dierbergs or Jimmy John's or something for about $5 cheaper. Maybe I should have gotten it on the garlic cheese bread or something? Idk. But I was not all that impressed. The bread was also soft and fresh, I did enjoy that too. I'm Not sure if I'll be back.

It was my birthday and for 60+ years, my traditional b-day dinner has been rigatoni. My in-laws suggested Charlie Gitto's and it was fantastic. So, this year, we were again passing through St Louis on my birthday and I wanted to go back. I was hoping that it was as good as I remembered. I feared that I would be disappointed but I wasn't. It was as great as I remembered. I had their rigatoni with sausage, my wife had baked spaghetti with meatballs, my BIL had lasagna and my SIL had salmon. I also added a classic Ceasar salad. All of our entrees were excellent. The service is superb and definitely deserves a 5-star rating. Our waiter was excellent - he said he's been doing this for 18 years and was one of the best, most professional waiters I've ever met. Anthony, the manager, deserves special thanks for resolving an issue with where we were being seated. He was also the epitome of professionalism.

Side of red pasta helped but was too sweet.

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.

    While traveling through Missouri, my wife and I were looking for a place to have dinner. I searched…read moreYelp 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.
