    We chose this spot for a sit-down dinner during our trip to St Louis. I had high hopes for this restaurant attached to the Drury Inn, but it was a letdown. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty with only three tables occupied, we were seated in an awkward corner right by the kitchen entrance.. Although the menu at the door advertised burgers--which is what we wanted--that menu was never offered to us once we sat down. We opted for the 30-day aged steak, but it was subpar, as were the other dishes. To make matters worse, my wine pour was less than a quarter-full, while I noticed other tables receiving significantly larger pours. Given the high price point, we expected much better quality and service. Definitely the low point of our otherwise great food tour of St. Louis!

    Stopped by for dinner with my co workers. We were not impressed. The menu was limited the decor was outdated. We asked for our steaks medium and they were over cooked and honestly werent great. The only reason why I dont give it a lower rating its because the server was very good and was very attentive. Definitely overated wity inflated prices.

    Went here to celebrate an 80th birthday. Staff was super friendly, it was nice and quiet which made it easy to talk, and service was great. We had toasted ravioli and candied scallops for an appetizer. Both were very good! Had a variation of steaks, all cooked perfectly well and delicious. Overall, a great experience! Would definitely recommend in the area, especially before or after a game.

    Couldn't believe how cheap this place was you're getting top dollar food for reasonable prices. I've definitely eaten at restaurants all over the world couldn't believe the meal we got for right around $200 crazy for two of us will be coming back for sure.

    We were provided a dinner at Carmine's from the contest I won and reservations were made for us on a Thursday evening at 8pm. Charles was our server. The restaurant is attached to the hotel we were staying at so it was really convenient. Upon arriving, we were greeted at the front and we informed them of our reservation. We were led right away to our table. The restaurant was busy for a weeknight. There were probably 10 tables with people at least. Once Charles greeted us, we ordered some cocktails to get started while we reviewed the menu. Our cocktails arrived and we decided to sip for a little before ordering. Hubs ordered the toasted ravioli for his appetizer and he was especially excited because he prefers meat over cheese ravioli. I was not a fan of it, as you can see from my picture. I ordered the wedge for my appetizer. Holy crap, I was getting so full off of that alone! For dinner, I ordered the surf and turf, along with additional prawns. Hubs ordered just a steak. We ordered corn and a twice baked potato as sides. We went way overboard. Everything tasted good but not out of this world amazing. We finished with some espresso and cake. Again, very good but we overdid it. The service was great. The ambiance was great. The check was over $300, which we did not think was going to be that high. I would definitely visit again if I stayed at the same hotel and definitely order less.

    Carmine's Steakhouse is A-mazing! We were staying at the Hilton by the stadium and it is a short walk from there. I had the Chicken Modena w/a Potato Gratin that was made with 5 different cheeses. There is so much variety on menu. If you go, ask for Nancy. She is a stellar server and made my first visit so much more comfortable . 10/10 will def go back, after I check if Nancy is working!

    Really good service - I think the waiter was the best part of the meal. The place was very empty and a bit dated. The food was so so - Not the best filet I've had but not the worst. The wine was very good and fairly priced.

    This meal was pretty damn good. From my first Gorgonzola Stuffed Olive Beefeater Dirty Martini to my last bite of Carrot Cake dessert! First off, this place might have one of the better martinis I've had, and the stuffed olives were amazing! Lobster bites appetizer was very unique and tasty. My Gorgonzola 10oz Fillet was also perfect. Service was attentive and very professional. Explained everything very well and thanked us at the end of the meal. Find dinning at its best.

    Cheesy Potato
    Money F.

    The service was average, ambience very outdated and food was underwhelming, ESPECIALLY for the price point. The risotto was not creamy. It was more of a flavored rice that was stuck together. The cheesy potatoes were just ok to me but my husband loved them. I was skeptical about most of their steaks coming on a bed of sauce. The steaks lacked seasoning so I guess they thought the sauces would make up for it? The Italian Pepperloin was ordered MEDIUM and came out Medium Rare. The gorgonzola was order medium and still had some rare spots. The gorgonzola sauce was so thick! Definitely not a wine sauce that I expected. My experience was just underwhelming. Disappointing.

    What a fantastic nightcap! After a long day at the Gateway Arch or a night at Busch Stadium, this is the place to unwind. I stopped by after a Cardinals game expecting them to be closed, but to my surprise, they were keeping open past posted hours to entertain the Cardinals fans. The restaurant is beautiful and inviting. The service was attentive and loving, and the drinks and dessert had me wondering how good of a meal I had missed since I didn't come by for dinner earlier in the evening! If Carmine's is the kind of place that will welcome you for a drink and a treat after hours...then they definitely show the same love in their steak. I can't wait to come back!

We sat in the patio and water and fresh hot 2 kinds of bread were placed on the table. Our server, Connor, is so knowledgeable and pleasant. He was patient with us and his wine suggestion was spot on. Great sense of humor and he worked all the patio tables. The food choices were amazing and exceeded expectations. Pricing was comparable with what we expected. The lobster bisque was thick, hot and very filling. There was ample pieces of lobster as well. My wife shared that her pasta was not hard or dry or rubbery but tasted freshly made. Connor shared that the prep starts every morning with homemade pasta. The traditional toasted ravioli were just that, toasted and tasty and the CG shrimp seemed so much more than an appetizer. Meals could be had with just those. I was very satisfied it ordered lasagna anyway. I just had them pack it to go as I was comfortably full. I know there are a lot of choices on the Hill but I assure you this one stands out. Please treat yourself to Charlie Gitto's. Don't wait for a special reason. Any time you eat here will be special

We had 6pm reservations and were seated on time but people without reservations faced a 2 hour wait. Make reservations! Upon entering, there is a hostess stand and small bar with seating extending to the back of the building. We had the first table so I can't comment on the full size. My son ordered a Bloody Mary and I had a Pinot Noir while we looked at menu. Bloody Mary was very good and the wine was pleasant. We started with Garlic Bread with Cheese. It was the only menu item I would not order again. Flavors did not come together. I ate my fair share so it was good. Just not great. We then shared a cheese pizza with provel. Elite crust and sauce! The crust had an amazing char and the sauce was deliciously nuanced. The cheese was very good, but most definitely not the star of the pie. Pasta Pomodoro was wonderful. House made pasta was excellent and the sauce was a perfect accompaniment. (Anthonino's really does sauces well!) I finished with tiramisu and I am so glad I did! Did I need it? No. Did I want it? Heck yeah! I think I will be wanting it every day for a long time to come! All of the staff were welcoming and friendly, while remaining efficient. Nice group of people.

We also stopped at the bar before dinner, and unfortunately that was the biggest letdown of the evening. The presentation and flavor of our cocktails were surprisingly disappointing--they looked and tasted more like drinks from a budget hotel bar than from one of The Hill's iconic restaurants. Thankfully, the incredible meal more than made up for the cocktails.
