Bartolino's Twin Oaks - House Risotto - Italian Near Me - Manchester, Missouri

TLDR: This is probably the worst Bartolino's location in St. Louis. Not great nor terrible. Bartolino's Twin Oaks was just okay for us. The atmosphere is nice--upscale without feeling overly snobbish or pretentious. We had a great waitress who provided wonderful service, but the tall busboy with the long bangs was a bit overbearing. He constantly hovered around us, including picking up a fork we dropped even after we told him we had it. Additionally, he started boxing up our food without even asking. I'm sure he was only trying to be helpful, but it made the experience feel a little uncomfortable. To start, the bread was delicious. We also ordered an Amaretto Stone Sour, which was just decent. I personally didn't taste much, if any, orange juice in it, which was disappointing. Just straight amaretto. For my entrée, I tried the Tortellini Piselli. It was good, but extremely rich. I could only eat about a quarter of it before I started feeling a little sick from how heavy it was. My mom ordered the Chicken Milanese and enjoyed it overall, although she wished it came with a sauce. She found the chicken to be a bit dry without one. Overall, it wasn't a horrible dinner by any means, but I'm not sure we'd return anytime soon. The atmosphere was pleasant and the food was decent, but there wasn't anything that really stood out enough to make us want to come back right away... read more

Tried out St. Louis style Pizza for the first time! Thin, cracker-like crust, very similar to Chicago Tavern style but featuring "Provel" cheese; a processed blend of Swiss, Cheddar and Provolone! The rich creaminess and unique flavor of the Provel shines since the crust is so thin, which is the beauty of this style of pie so to me, this was excellent. The fried raviolis had a crispy and flavorful batter and the garlic butter cheese was dense but tasty. Service was very friendly and food came out at a reasonable pace. The place itself had a very clean and modern look but still felt casual. Food was very heavy but they do have lighter options; I just wanted to try some St Louis staples. read more

Went with a very large group for lunch. The whole place is clean/airy/beautiful! Arielle was our server- kind, funny, on top of things. When looking at the menu; if you think the prices are "higher" than others, do not fret. The portions are HUGE. We all took part of our entrees home to have for another meal. All around a very positive visit. Food is spot on and the service is excellent! read more

Love this place for its good food and close proximity to friends to meet. The Shrimp was excellent; the four stars were because it takes forever to get a drink from the bar; I think our small party of eight waited at least 25 minutes. When the drinks were served we placed our second order because of the wait. The Old Fashioned's were just okay. Service was great and unfortunately I don't remember his name. Chicken Modega was also excellent. Parking can be difficult so arrive accordingly to your reservation. read more

Had a delicious dinner. Steak and crabmeat with Hollandaise sauce special was terrific. Sole Ferri perfectly cooked. Wine list is extensive. House Merlot went well with the steak entree. Service is attentive but not overly so. The atmosphere is really nice. Love the crème brûlée dessert. Consistently good food and service. read more

We had a really nice time here for brunch. I have really enjoyed the experiences at their location off of Hampton, food is always good and this new spot was no exception. The space is nice and open, and it was pretty busy. We sat at a 4 top and had some good options for brunch, including a classic brunch menu and San Martino brunch. They have a drink menu as well, but I only ordered water a a cappuccino. Espresso was good! My meal was the caprese omelette, the burrata sold me! It came with toast and their breakfast potato. The omelette was really good, the fresh basil on top was good! The breakfast potato was good too, it was more of thicker shape than your typical hashbrown. Check it out! read more

This was my first time eating at the Bartolino's Twin Oaks location and I was super impressed and it was even better than the Hill and South Lindbergh locations that are great too and I've ate at those several times over the years. I ordered the Tortellini Piselli that is pasta shells stuffed with beef and pork and finished in a delightful sauce of peas, mushroom, prosciutto, cream and Parmesan cheese. My friend had a plate of Rigatoni with Italian sausage that I tried a bite of and was deliciousness as well and the pasta had a very garlicky sauce as well that I want to go back for soon. I'll probably opt to dine at this Twin Oaks location from now on, it's more elegant but still warm and inviting than the other locations. Also I found the service much friendlier than the others as well. read more

My family is back at Bartolino's for a birthday party. We have a large table in the back room which was nice. Their were 11 of us and the table was a good size for our group. The waiter was friendly and did a good job of taking care of us. We are a pretty high maintenance group. The drinks were good and appetizers were very good. I usually get the Tortellini Pisseli which is always excellent. I tried a new dish tonight, the Short Rib Ragu Pappardelle. It wasn't as good as the tortellini and I felt that it needed to have more flavor. All in all, a good time was had by all. read more

Nice dining experience. The food was very good. I had the Tutto Mare and it was really good. There were a couple of clams that didn't open, but I quickly discarded them. Service was good, but the kitchen and the bar were slow with the orders. Certainly not the server's fault. Charlie was fantastic. There were 6 of us and everyone thought the food was very good. read more

First, the parking can be a nightmare. It's shared with so many businesses and depending on the time, you may park far. The resturant is very nice, inside and out. I came for lunch with a friend and we were seated right away. Since we came during lunch, we are pretty light. We both ordered a salad and my celebs had soup. Our server was a little slow to icky have a few tables and so it took a minute for her to come around but she was nice. We sat in the area that looks like a patio and it was very loud. Not because of the music but with everyone talking, it was hard to for me and my friend to hear each other during conversions. Outside of that, the food was cooked very well. The salads were really good and the chowder wasn't bad. Very nice place. I would return again. read more

Bartolino's Twin Oaks delivers exactly what you hope for from a classic Italian-American restaurant: consistency, comfort, and well-executed staples in a relaxed, polished setting. I started with a bourbon sidecar, which was nicely balanced and spirit-forward without being overly sweet--clearly made with care rather than rushed behind the bar. The Caesar salad was crisp and traditional, with plenty of freshly grated Parmesan and a creamy dressing that coated the romaine without drowning it. Simple, classic, and done right. The highlight was the tortellini pannini. Generous portions of fresh tortellini in a rich, creamy sauce with sausage, peas, and mushrooms. The pasta was cooked properly, the sauce clung well, and the dish felt indulgent without crossing into overly heavy territory--exactly the kind of comforting Italian fare Bartolino's excels at. Atmosphere was warm and comfortable, and service was attentive without being intrusive. This is a reliable spot for a relaxed dinner where you know what you're getting--and it's done well. Would absolutely return. read more

Went out for a nice dinner with my wife and our out-of-town visitors, wanted to find a nice restaurant that represented St. Louis well and this place DID NOT disappoint! All 4 of us got different meals, from lasagna to salmon fettuccine, risotto and toasted ravioli... Everything was incredible! Presentation, and vibe of the restaurant was very well done. Service was really good too! Waitress was very helpful in finding the right meal for each of us, and gave good insight. I don't think our drinks got below halfway ever. Overall a very good experience! And would recommend for anyone looking for a nice meal out! read more

This is more of a heads up: Saturday's they don't serve their lunch menu, only brunch. The staff there is so nice so this isn't a reflection on them but so strange when you go in for a reservation at lunchtime on Saturday or Sunday they don't offer their weekly lunch menu. read more

Giving Bartolinos a shot at lunch is a good idea. The place wasn't packed like it is at dinnertime and it still holds up to their quality and customer services. It was quiet until the lunch rush came in but that is normal for all. I had a casesr salad with fried calamari and cannelloni. The cannelloni was cheesy and creamy with a good amount of meat for each bite that made yoi crave for more. I will be returning to try their sandwiches. read more

I have dined at the one in south county many times excellent, this was not that. Pizza, sausage had horrible after taste, all toppings had slid to one side. Mostaccioli Was like biting into a bowl of garlic, inedible and the toasted ravioli was soaked in oil. Worse $134 I ever spent read more

We went in for a holiday lunch and we're excited to try this newer location. The atmosphere is nice and they have a nice bar area I understand has a happy hour from 3-6 M-F. We both had the same dish for lunch. It was the salad with the grilled tuna. Salad on a week day that took an hr to get. And the restaurant was not busy. Our server was good but obviously the kitchen is either understaffed or poorly organized. The salad was good but we could not figure out what was taking so long. I forgot to take a pic of it, we were so distracted. We also got the cannoli combo for dessert. It was good. read more

I ordered orange juice and the classic breakfast. The orange juice tastes like freshly squeezed, very delicious. The classic breakfast comes with two eggs, I ordered scrambled, hash browns, three strips of bacon, I asked for extra crispy, and two slices of toast. The eggs were cooked just right. Many parts on the bacon were burnt. I didn't want it that crispy. The hash brown looked like a small brick. The hash brown was crispy but needs seasoning. I asked for the multigrain bread for my toast and it came out perfect. I got excellent service sitting at the bar. I like the look and vibe of this restaurant. There's a large parking lot in front of the restaurant. read more

We visited on a Saturday with a small group, reservations for 5:30. the experience, on the whole, was fine, but the service was lacking. Everyone agreed that we were rushed, they bussed the table as people were eating and we ended up that the last person eating was doing so alone with the table cleared. I appreciate the prompt service but this was a little annoying to everyone, you could hardly put your fork down without someone coming to ask if you were done. Very off-putting. One star deducted. The food was what you'd expect from a Saint Louis Italian restaurant. Been to one, been to them all. But good selection on the whole from what you'd expect, not a huge menu, but I'm sure everyone could find something there. Value for money? Meh, not really the best. The place is clean, good atmosphere. Would I go back? Probably not. There are a lot of Saint Louis Italian restaurants to try yet. read more

I got the tortellini. I have tried the tortellini at every restaurant on and off the hill in Saint Louis. I'm a spell appointed connoisseur of tortellini. Bartolino's is the new GOAT. Absolutely incredible. read more

The food is always fantastic and the service is great! The steak is done to perfection and they do a wonderful risotto.

I was very excited to come here and experience the newest addition in Manchester/ Valley Park area. It is definitely a bit more upscale especially if you look at the decorations inside. However, I think my experience was off put from the beginning. I made a reservation online and the older lady at the check in counter was rather rude. My husband and I asked for a high chair for our 8 month old and she was very annoyed. It was cold outside and we were sit at the first booth right by the door. The high chair they brought out was dirty and looks unsafe. Along with the fact that it stick out and I was worry everyone would bump into the high chair.... so my husband and I took turn holding our baby so the other could eat. I do think that customer service should've been a lot better given they've been opening since October. The food was average/mid. We got couple appetizers and salads to start. The salad is overpriced and doesn't come with your entree. My salmon fettuccine was extremely salty ... I could only eat maybe a third of my plate. My husband's pasta combination was less salty but still more than average. The pork chop special had too much lemon on it, without side pasta it wouldn't be balanced at all. Needless to say, I was very disappointed with everything. P/s: we spent over $75+ a person read more

The new Twin Oaks location is the most convenient location for me out of all their locations. The decor is beautiful and the service was excellent. I was meeting an out of town friend and he had not had the toasted ravioli so I told him it is a must try since he was in St. Louis and he liked it. I got the chicken modiga for dinner and it was excellent. Have been to multiple locations and have been happy with the food and service. read more

Food is really good, but expensive. They give you a lot of food, but unless you are starving, it's hard to eat it all in one setting. O

The atmosphere of this restaurant is beautiful, and there's much potential. I have come for brunch twice now, and both times have been disappointed. Unfortunately this morning, I ordered the biscuits and gravy (recommended by our waitress), and the sunny-side up egg was extremely unappetizing. I was afraid of getting sick so we did not eat the dish. We then overheard the table next to us telling their server that they also had a situation with their dish (the egg white omelet came out with egg whites so thin and runny that the guest described it as "snot"). My friend today ordered avocado toast and it had way too much lime on it - it tasted like guacamole, which is not appropriate for brunch dish. I'm hoping the kitchen can get brunch figured out because this area could really benefit from a solid brunch spot, but currently they have some work to do. read more

From start to finish we had a great experience. Our waiter, Matthew, was very pleasant and efficient. My husband and I both had the rigatoni bolognese and it was out of this world delicious!

We will definitely return to try some more offerings from the menu and maybe even have a dessert read more

Everything was fantastic! Hard to beat true STL Italian! The food was great and so was the service.

Overall, my wife and I were very pleased with all aspects of this restaurant. We were seated right away and our waiters were very attentive. There were points throughout our dinner where we were waiting for a while for service, but it was due to the fact they were extremely busy. Pasta portions were enough to feed 2-3 people and the salad was the same as well. My wife got the tortellini, but said it lacked some flavor. My Blackened Salmon was cooked perfectly. It had the perfect amount of Cajun flavoring and it got 2 more meals out of this one. We were seated in a more private area of the restaurant which was pretty nice considering how busy it was. Next time, I recommend splitting a salad and pasta with someone as it will be more than enough food for you! read more

we love your place on south lindbergh. twin oaks, beautiful place, servers attentive, seems like a high end, up scale place. But the food, not so much. Ordinry. my wife ordered scallop risotto--it was average at best. very few tiny hunks of cut up scallops. I ordered pork chop medium. came out over cooked. didn't care for the soy honey sauce either. i ordered the baked potato side. server came back informed kitchen was out of baked potatoes. 5 oclock and very few people in the place and your out of baked potatoes? Ordered pasta as replacement. Waiter suggested the pink sauce.. ordinary almost like box pasta.. kicker--when the bill came, 2.00 upcharge was added for the "pink" sauce. seriously? 160.00 bill and you nickle and dime us 2.00 because you added a tablespoon of marinara to the cream pasta which is one of the sides. read more
