Restaurants near Benton Place

This is one our favorite restaurants in the StL metro region.

Last night’s dining at Charlie Gitto’s was outstanding. Emma is a wonderful staff server and made the night out very nice. The other staff members are well trained too. Every menu options we ordered were prepared perfectly and delicious. Thank you!

Hands down, Ramsey’s kitchen has been the best Saint Louis restaurant experience I have had thus far. From the food, to the ambience and passionate staff, this place is a cut above. Given I went on a Monday night for my birthday, the place was quiet, tranquil even- with breathtaking views of the Saint Louis arch and Mississippi River just outside. Yes it is expensive but you can tell care has been taken. Lastly, I’d say this is a great place for EVERYONE to at least try once.

We were seated in Brass Bar. Same menu but quieter. Our waitress, Jessica, was fantastic. The food, as always, was perfect.

Service was very good— a little slower service than I’d prefer, but Meredith and other staff members were friendly and attentive the entire time so it was worth it. We were celebrating our five year anniversary— multiple staff members wished us a happy anniversary and our dessert was comped… what a nice touch!! Pork belly app was delicious. Bone-in ribeye was well-seasoned, a little under temperature we ordered (med rare) but it was cooked nicely and fat was rendered so we ate it and very much enjoyed it. Mac and cheese with lobster addition was good but next time I would probably leave off the lobster, it was tasty enough without it. And the seasonal veg (braised kale with sweet potato) was excellent. Bourbon bread pudding was the highlight of the meal, so so good!! We will definitely be back!
