*2024 WINE SPECTATOR BEST OF AWARD OF EXCELLENCE*

Renown Italian restaurateur Mario Laccarino is pleased to invite guests for a taste of the Sorrento Coast at Casa Don Alfonso. Open for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch, the menu tells the story of traditions passed down for generations in the family homes of southern Italy. These recipes come from a magical place, ripe with the culture and beauty of the Mediterranean. Alongside an unmistakable commitment to hospitality and service, Casa Don Alfonso brings hand-crafted flavors and carefully chosen ingredients with every bite.

Family of Iaccarino honors the culinary heritage of the Campania region, with seasonal ingredients that closely resemble the sun-kissed produce harvested at the Iaccarino family’s farm. Fresh, handmade pastas create an edible narrative of the Iaccarino legacy, while whimsical desserts transport guests to Naples’ nostalgic bakeries.

From Sorrento to St. Louis, we look forward to welcoming you soon.

    Just ok...not much selection. Pasta and entree were worst thing on the buffet. Service was very good with JohnPaul being an excellent server but in my opinion skip the buffet and go out for a good brunch.

    Consistently good. Only criticism is that we had to wait to be seated for a 5 p.m. reservation when the restaurant was nearly empty. The service was good. The food was delicious. We very much enjoyed our evening.

    I have dined here numerous times and always come away a tad bit disappointed. It’s like they just can’t get there. You can always tell that the ingredients are of the highest quality and that the food is prepared with care - but it just misses by that much…. I think maybe it’s just a bit too casual of an atmosphere which translates to not quite reaching the finish line. Kind of like the guy who takes the kickoff back 100 yards but let go of the ball at the 1.

    After a rough start, hostess had no personality and shouldn’t be the first person guests meet. Our server was outstanding and saved the evening. We had a delightful 3-course prix fixe dinner with wine to match each course. The lobby and entrance was beautifully decorated for the holidays.
