Best Seasonal Restaurants in Forest Park

Initially I was reluctant to go here since it is a hotel restaurant but the weather was not good so we went. Good choice! My wife got the burrata caprese salad and I had mushroom and black truffle soup. The caprese was delicate and the soup was rich and perfectly prepared. For main courses my wife had la classics lasagna napoletana, which was firm and deeply meaty, quite delicious. I had the tagliatelle don Alfronso, which was to die for. The sauce with their home grown tomatoes was exquisitely sweet and the home made pasta perfect. I’m of Italian ancestry and have been eating Italian food my whole life and I cannot recall something this delicious, even when we’ve been in Sorrento. The service was attentive and helpful and the owner interested in our thoughts. Highly recommended.

No negative comments at all. Server was very friendly and personable. Food quality and temp and cooking was excellent. Presentation good. Wine options by the glass was limited but choice was good. Would highly recommend

Russel’s is the absolute best gem in STL! Brunch was fantastic as always, the biscuits, oh the biscuits are so tasty and perfect! The Lola Jean is such a delicious staple and we tried the Cuban, on of the best we’ve had! Service is always fantastic!

Great date night. I had the roast chicken. David had the mussels. We shared a salad. Everything was perfectly cooked and the service was great.

Great food, great service, great ambience! We love going here for a special lunch or dinner. It’s always worth it.
