Best restaurants near me in Kirkwood, MO

We had the best time dining with friends at Olive and Oak. Our server was outstanding, along with all of the hosts, bussers, and additional support staff. Our meal was perfectly paced and gave us time to enjoy each course, as well as visit with our friends. The food and drinks were absolutely spectacular, as always. To top things off, we were gifted a bottle of wine before leaving from the manager. Hows that for a wow-factor?!

I've had the pleasure of dining at Twisted Tree for the last two nights. Both experiences were pleasurable with good friends and delicious food. The servers and all the wait staff are kind, knowledgeable and quick to take care of their customers. The food has always been perfect. From salad to our meals everyone raves about their experience. I highly recommend everyone give Twisted Tree their business!

My husband and I shared the calamari appetizer which was fantastic and very substantial. He ordered the sea bass over asparagus and garlic risotto and I had the special which was lobster and ricotta ravioli with tomato vodka cream sauce. Mine was delicious, though very rich. His sea bass was wonderful and cooked to perfection. The risotto was terrible. It was far from al dente as it was actually crunchy and overpowered by the garlic. Our server (I think his name was Dent) was fantastic. Attentive but not suffocating and made sure our main courses were reserved a reasonable time after we finished the appetizer. I have always enjoyed other Napoli restaurants and I would go to this one again too. Just wouldn’t order the risotto.

If you haven’t given this quaint cozy place a try, what are you waiting for? It’s a smaller place so be sure to make a reservation. Bryan was our server and we wanted for nothing. He was very knowledgeable about the menu which came in handy as my friend has food allergies. I also felt the menu was reasonably priced for the level of service and food quality.

Excellent service and food
