    We stopped in for an appetizer (toasted ravs!) and 4 tapas plates. Everything was fantastic, and the service was great - considering there were many many large groups and a wedding rehearsal dinner going on in the back room.

    It was a bit chaotic when trying to get seated. Our reservation was almost skipped over because we were checked in by one person who knew we were waiting at the bar but he failed to tell the regular hostess. She apparently thought we were crossed off the list. After waiting 30 minutes and seeing all sorts of other people get seated we went back up to the hostess stand. She was clearly confused but gave us the next available table. Other than that, food was delicious.

    It was great, except that we waited more than 45 minutes for a table despite having reservations. There were people without reservations who were also seated in that time, which was really frustrating.

    Guido’s offers both Italian and Spanish cuisine. We go for the Spanish. It’s the only restaurant we have found in the St. Louis area with truly authentic Spanish food. We hadn’t been there since before the pandemic but the gambas, baccarones and baccalo were just as excellent and authentic as in past years. The Rioja tempernillo wine was also excellent. We have not tried Italian cuisine at Guido’s but from what we have seen it looks like food served at many of the other Italian restaurants on The Hill. Service is brisk but it was a Saturday night and quite crowded.

    Have been there numerous times and usually very good. Went in and was seated. Had to wait for the manager to get us a waiter. Came and took our order and said would be right back with bread. Several other people were seated after us and got bread and fast service. We just walked out before our food came,and it wasn’t until then that someone wanted to help us. We will go back one more time because the food is good. Had a bad experience.

    Overall do not recommend. Service as very poor. Took 15 minutes to get glass of wine that I got after I had eaten my salad. Ordered a salad as an entree and received it with the other salads ordered as a starter so I had no food to eat when the rest of the table ate their entree. Took 15 minutes to get the check. Would not go back.

    My family and I enjoyed our food very much. My only complaint was the dressing on my salad. It was very watery and tasteless. The gazpacho soup was delicious. Everyone else ordered pasta dishes which were praised. The server was friendly but gave minimal attention. It was noisy, making it difficult to converse. I would go again for the food at a less busy time perhaps.

    My paella wasn’t great had no flavor the chicken tasted old and reheated. Had to ask for salt to try and save it. Seafood was over cooked and rubbery. Our potatoes bravas tasted off and was shocked that Tabasco was just poured has the sauce.

    Guidos always pleases! From friendly wait staff to a warm and energetic environment to the best Italian or Spanish dishes you could want - this will continue to he my favorite go to spot. As an added bonus, I found out my fitness coach is close with the owner. I am on a new health journey and the idea of an Italian restaurant terrified me until I realized that my coach has a dish on the menu, placed their for folks just like me. An incredibly delicious chicken breast with gaelic steamed broccoli. I could enjoy the evening while still staying on track! Such a great place.

    We were very disappointed in our waiter. He was not pleasant at all, we had to ask for our drinks to be refilled the only time he came by is to take our order, bring us our dinner and then our check. He acted like he didn’t want to be there. It was our 46 year anniversary and we wanted to go to a special restaurant and that’s why we went there. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT NEVER AGAIN

    We focused on the Tapas menu rather than the Italian. The 4 oz beef tenderloin steak was one of the best I’ve ever had. So tender (no need for that steak knife!) and flavorful; cooked perfectly to order. We had the mushrooms with it as well as the fried potatoes. Which were perfect as well! Crispy outside and tender inside. Also had the chicken croquettes and the empanadas. Those were good but not my favorite. I loved the pastry in the empanada but didn’t care for the filling personally. So many other options I’d try next time. Started with a dinner salad and a small Caesar to round out some veggies. The Caesar had good dressing and wasn’t drowning in it which I appreciate, and the croutons were yummy. I would love to try a pizza next time. The table next to us had one and the crust looked so light and crispy. We had a reservation but arrived early and were able to be seated immediately. The wait staff was attentive and friendly.
