- DDeannaChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoWe have been to The Hill many times from Chicago for volleyball tournaments. We had a large group of 30 people. I just wish we had found Rigazzis years ago. This was our best experience in The Hill hands down. The food was amazing, reasonably priced and the portions were perfect. The lemontini was fabulous. Our server Erik went above and beyond. He managed the large party seamlessly and even gave us a little history lesson of STL and The Hill. We will be back!! Hi to Eric from your new Chicago friends!!!More infoRigazzisPrice: Moderate• Italian• The Hill•4
- KKristineSt. Louis •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoEverything was great. Noise is high when sitting next to two other tables with two people each. You can't have conversation because you only hear their conversations going on. Other then that, it was a great experience. Just not able to have our own conversations due to being so close and others listening or being over powered with conversations a foot next to us.More infoDominic's on the HillPrice: Expensive• Italian• The Hill•4.8
- JJeffLos Angeles •9 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis is the second time I have been to Lorenzo’s. It did not disappoint. I brought my partner and a friend. My partner has never been to St Louis before and I wanted her to experience the food in The Hlll. She loved it. The waiter was courteous and attentive, the restaurant I would t say is loud but there definitely is a good buzz of people talking and enjoying each other’s company. I will definitely recommend and hopefully come back in the future on trips to St Louis.More infoLorenzo's TrattoriaPrice: Moderate• Italian• The Hill•4.7
- MMcKennaSouth Carolina •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoWow, I wish I could give this place 10 stars. My boyfriend and I were visiting St. Louis for the weekend and we were recommended to come here. To say we loved it feels like an understatement. I had asked to be seated in a quieter section and they happily accommodated. The ambience was perfection: jazz and dim lighting…music wasn’t too loud. Our server Zach, gave us great menu recommendations. We ordered the French onion soup to share as our appetizer and it was incredible. We got the chicken dish and braised beef…absolutely phenomenal. For dessert, we had a hard time deciding between the chocolate mousse and the cream puffs. The kitchen gifted us the cream puffs (absolute angels). Also, the espresso martini was the best I’ve ever had. Overall, 11/10 experience. I’ll be dreaming of the desert for a while. Thank you to the kind hostess and server and staff who all made us feel so special and taken care of!More infoBrasserie by NichePrice: Moderate• French• St. Louis•4.8
