Charlie Gittos Restaurant Downtown

If you want Great Italian food and Great service.Charlie Gitto's is the place to go! They are the BEST!!!...

I'm a native St. Louisan who loves to take visitors out for a great St. Louis Italian meal. This is the ONLY place I'll take visiting friends and family. It is, bar none, the BEST Italian food in St. Louis. Mangia!

My husband and I visited St. Louis in May and we were within walking distance of this restaurant. We loved the look of the place, service was great, food was absolutely amazing! If we ever visit STL again we will definately go back. Price was very reasonable. My husband and I got sodas and one appitizer and two entrees and the bill was less the 40 without tip!!! I recommend this to everyone that I talk to! Enjoy!!!!!!

Sorry for the delay! Last fall some relatives came in to visit and wanted to go a very nice Italian restuarant on the Hill that we had not been to before, we chose Gharlie Gitto's. It was the best choice we have ever made. The atmosphere is wonderful. The service was the best we have ever had. We had so many people taking care of us It seemed as though we each had our own personal waiter. (Appetizers) The Toasted Ravioli is lighter than the usual heavy Ravioli you get at other restaurants and the marinara sauce could be a meal by it's self. (Salads) Fresh, Clean, House Dressing has Great Flavor. (Entrees) We each tried something different again. I had the Veal Parmigano with a side of the 3 pepper Seafood Fettucciine (If you like Seafood this is the Entree for you) . My wife had the Chicken Parmigano. Excellent! My son had the catch of the day, a wonderful Tuna dish. We tried the others entrees and each was excellent. ( Did I mention the fresh baked bread! MMMMM ) Dessert: The waiter llisted all of the mouth watering desserts that we could choose from. Gelotto, Tiramisu, Cannoli etc. When we could not decide he offered a taste of each of the fresh made Gelottos to help our decision making. My wife got the Peach. MMMGood. I had the choclate, deep and rich. Others got the Tiramisu and said it was the best they have had. With drinks and tip our bill came to about $60 per person. A bit pricey for some, we could have gotten by for less, BUT this was a special occasion. SO if you are planning a very special night for two or a special get together for a large group and are wanting it to be the perfect night then Charlie Gitto's is the place to go.

My Wife's and I's Favorite place to eat while in St. Louis. Great atmosphere and even better food. Service has always been fast and friendly even on the weekends. I have been to a few other Italian restaurants while on vacation in St Louis, but Charlie Gitto's is the best.
