I hadn't been here in years and it seemed like a good place to start my birthday weekend. I started out with an aperol spritz and a di peppe salad which was really good. Italian salad with some savory touches of cheese and salami. I got the chicken parm which was delightful, especially with the oil/ garlic pasta was a nice addition. They brought me a dessert to help me celebrate, which was panna cotta. I've never had it before, it was light but flavorful. Definitely delicious! I will for sure be back.

I finally made it to Peppe's Apt 2 after all these years and I had an enjoyable meal and it's an…read moreelegant and snazzy place. I went there solo so I arrived early on a weekday after opening up and before any diners arrived and the dining room felt a little stuffy to me especially when I was told no ball caps in the dining room and that's fine, I didn't plan to dine with it on. So I decided to sit outside as it was a perfect weather night for it and loved their patio. I had the beef tenderloin tips in a rigatoni pasta and vodka cream sauce that was the daily special and a side spinach salad. It goes without saying it was pretty pricey but I was very full when I exited so was happy. Service was great and very professional. As much as I enjoyed my pasta I didn't feel Peppe's made my higher pantheon list of fine Italian restaurants along with Gitto's, Marcella's and a few other Italian restaurants mostly in the city but it's high up for St. Louis County Italian places and top notch.

Before discussing the food, let's talk about what's most important, and that's our waitress Eve. Our table of four had many questions regarding food as well as wine, and Eve had thoughts and recommendations for everything. It was a pleasant change from other servers when Eve had some recs for things that weren't the most expensive items on the menu (we've all experienced the servers who only recommend the top dollar plates). Eve listened carefully to what we wanted and had appropriate and mindful suggestions. Eve knew all about the wines and helped us pair properly per plate. The rest of the staff that crossed paths with our table were kind and helpful as well. As for the food... the Truffle Agnolotti was as to die for! Omg. Amazing. Full of flavor yet not heavy. It was the star of the table. Lastly, we were impressed with the selection of appropriately priced wines by the glass.

They are willing to accommodate gluten free diets and even make small substitutions in a dish. My one pet peeve is when they tell you the specials but don't tell you the price.

Most of the time if you really want it you will get the dish but tell people the price up front. The ambiance here is very nice. Looks very Italian.

I pop in for gelato frequently, but I also enjoy the pistachio raviolis a lot. You really can't go wrong with any pasta choice, and I haven't tried their pizza but it looks and smells amazing.

I do recommend getting a reservation because they get really busy during peak dinner hours! The staff is always friendly, from the hostess to the waiters to the bartenders, I've never had a bad experience. Highly recommend this place!

Two long term friends and I met for dinner & drinks here. We were dressed casually and I felt we…read morewere fine, but most of the diners seemed dressed for a semi formal date. Not having been here before I had called ahead and asked for a table close to the entry as one of our party has an illness and not as mobile as he'd like. I was pleased with the table that they had reserved for us and the hostess didn't mention why we got that table, imo that was classy as I had hoped they wouldn't bring it up. It just looked like we got lucky and got a table a bit larger than needed and near the front without being obvious. We had drinks brought out and I had the amore spritzer suggested by the server. It was larger than expected and fairly strong, great taste. The other two drinks were just standard gin & tonic and a beer. All three dinners were excellent: my lobster ravioli, calamari, and chicken Romano. The house salads were very good, as was the shared slice of cheesecake that ended our dinner. The food & drinks were excellent, the server was great interacting with us and doing some give and take, and it was not overly expensive. In cost this would be a 3 out of 4 or a 3.5 out of 5 if the top number was higher expense for a restaurant. Without a doubt I would go back on a date if I was looking to impress.

I decided to go with a lunch special, a fried artichoke salad with asparagus and a balsamic dressing paired with a meatball sub. I thought it would be a 1/2 sandwich, but it was a full size one.
