Peel Wood Fired Pizza

Award winning wood fired pizza restaurant with two metro east locations in Edwardsville and O’Fallon Illinois as well as one location in Clayton, Missouri. All of our pizzas are cooked to perfection in a Mugnaini-built, wood-burning oven at a consistent 8

Reviewed By SpringfieldFresser

Had an outstanding dinner here on a couple of weekends - started with a salad- one order is plenty for 2 diners, and several of the salads on the menu are excellent; not just some lettuce and tomato, and the dressings are also excellent.I usually just go for regular cheese pizza (you know, mozzarella or mixed cheeses and tomato sauce) but we enjoy the others as well - Grecian pizza, wild mushroom are our favorites.Peel is also a craft brewery, and we love the darker ale and the porter.

Pasta Plus

The best pizza, salad and pasta in Clayton, Missouri. Call 314-727-1001 for delivery. Located across from the County Courthouse. Fresh Italian food.

Reviewed By WindyCity1255

Pasta Plus is a good fast food Italian place complete with a wide menu of pasta, subs, and pizza. They even have some entrees. There should be something for everyone.The food is good, especially given the price point, and the portions are generous too.The only drawback is be prepared to spend 15-20 mins for a takeout order, regardless of how busy they are. The staff is nice, but they could care less how long you're waiting. The food will be ready when it's ready. And the cashier will chat up the customer ahead of you as if you're not there. If you can accept this, then Pasta Plus is a strong option. I've contemplated leaving while in line before, but if the goal is a decent takeout meal for a good price in Clayton, where will you go?Thanks for your honest feedback, we are currently working on wait times and you can call ahead for fastest service/ Thank you for your review, we appreciate you stopping by Pasta Plus where you can get the Best Pizza and Best Salads in Clayton Missouri.

Anthonino's Taverna LLC

Reviewed By krissullivan

Had high expectations due to great reviews here on TripAdvisor and it’s ranking as #18 in the city. Very confused by this rating as my experience did not measure up. Very warm outside AND Inside the restaurant on a busy Saturday evening. We were seated 25 minutes later than our reservation time (745pm) and comped a toasted ravioli. It was not so much about the lateness of being seated but the shortness and responses to questions about timing of being seated from the front of house staff that made this wait annoying. The caprese salad was good, dolmades and ravioli were ok, but the pasta with red sauce and sausage was unpleasant. I have never tasted a smokier red sauce. It almost tasted “burnt”. The sausage was also quite spicy and the pasta was nothing special- an inedible dish.The prices are quite good and it’s a family atmosphere, but I will not be returning.

A sleek St Louis basement gastro pub. Basso lies beneath the Restaurant at the Cheshire in Clayton

Reviewed By Martin G

My wife and I wanted to return for dinner to the Cheshire Restaurant (Boundary) but it was booked. Since they had the two other options (Fox & Hound or Basso), we looked at the menus and chose Basso. It was a very nice dinner with great service. It was a bit loud so that presented a few challenges. My wife ordered the steak. The portion wasn't exceptionally large but the flavor was excellent. (Odd - there was no side with it.) I ordered the margarita pizza and it was VERY good.Thanks for coming back to The Cheshire, Martin! Hope to see you again, soon!

Peno

Locally sourced, in house made, authentic southern italian soul food.

Reviewed By colleenk739

I attended a family birthday dinner at Peno, and the entire meal from start to finish was phenomenal. The dinner entree I chose was the Papparelle Palermo. This is one of the best pasta dishes I have ever been served in a restaurant. The combination of sausage, prosciutto and pistachios was absolutely delicious. The homemade gelato was the perfect ending to a perfect meal. The rum raisin and raspberry fennel gelatos were outstanding. Can’t wait to return to St. Louis and have another great meal at Peno!

A salmon dinner a few weeks ago was excellent, with the salmon cooked just right and an interesting side. So the Chef's Choice pizza this week sounded fine: Flyin' Hawaiian, with pineapple and prosciutto. What could go wrong?First, it took forever. Usually pizzas are out within minutes. At least I'd ordered a half salad - the vinaigrette listed wasn't exactly what arrived, but okay - and it was nearly finished when the pizza arrived, covered with melted mozzarella to the point of overkill. You couldn't see what was underneath.Its pineapple tasted good - but this chunk of pork? Surely not prosciutto - maybe leftover pork loin? There was absolutely no prosciutto in the whole pizza, just ¼'thick pieces of chewy meat. When I asked the server, she came back to say that "the chef says that that is our prosciutto."Weird. Fluid definition, obviously. (And the offer to make another wasn't a choice - who wants another of the same?)I was also unexpectedly disappointed in the beer offerings. Usually there are 6-7 outstanding local beers among the draft choices, always some good seasonals. No, not this visit.. Nothing special. They offered the usual big brewery choices, just on draft. What fun is that?So it's as though something happened and the TwinOak we enjoyed a few weeks ago disappeared, and a lesser-quality option was put in its place. All I can say is that the salad was fresh and that a half-order is more than sufficient. Which isn't the point of visiting a place like TwinOaks....Thank you for providing us feedback about your experience.

I thoroughly enjoyed my salad made assembly line fashion but we could't converse because the decibel level was so high. I liked the various combinations of salads you could get but downrated my assessment because I wouldn't eat in the restaurant again. Try take out!

Used to have to wait for a table...but the place was slower the night we went. Service pretty good....NOT for a quiet dinner but good atmosphere. The pizza was excellent and the toppings on my favorite salad (Bada Bing) plentiful. Great place to people watch and take in the vibe of The Loop....right on trolley line. Hard to resist the desserts next door...(create your own cookie and icecream sandwich combo!)

I was staying couple blocks away to be in court the next day. Picked up kale salad and minestrone. Both very good and priced well. I wish I’d eaten in because atmosphere was very nice.

Ordered pizza for takeout—dr. Dre. Good stuff. The crust was just the right combination of crunchy and chewy. Cheese and sauce were in good proportion. Toppings worked nicely together. Gal who took our phone call was very friendly and easy to hear and understand. Definitely a pizza I would recommend to visitors and locals of St. Louis!
