One of the most popular family-owned eateries on The Hill in St. Louis since 2004, Anthonino’s serves a unique mix of Italian and Greek specialties. Whether you’re one of our treasured regulars, or you’re visiting for the first time, our aim is the same; from the moment you walk through the door to the final sip of your after dinner drink, we hope you walk away having gained something wonderful from the experience.
What sets Anthonino’s apart from other authentic Italian restaurants on The Hill is the addition of Greek specialties to the extensive and eclectic menu. Influenced by their Italian father and Greek mother, owners (and brothers) Anthony and Rosario Scarato grew up having experienced the best of both cultures. Recognizing the finer points of each country’s cuisine, their goal in opening Anthonino’s was to craft a perfect mix of the best rich, decadent Italian dishes with classic, flavorful Greek fare.

Had a later reservation at 8:00 and was seated within 10 minutes of that time. We’d gotten there earlier so they just put us in the normal queue. Waited in the front entrance area that was at least 20 degrees warmer than the main dining room. Much to our dismay, they seated us in the bar area which is the same HOT space and crazy loud. Had appetizers, t-rav (meh) and calamari (good). Two of us had tutto mare in marinara, one had the pasta con broccoli and the other had beef braciole. The tutto mare was cheap with way to much pasta and way to little protein (2 shrimp, 2 clams, 4 mussels, and a scattering of squid). I didn’t care for the extremely sweet midwestern style marinara. Why must every sauce in Missouri now contain at least half a cup of sugar or be laden with cream? The beef sauce was nice and rich but the prosciutto was a bit fatty and not easy to cut. I didn’t try the pasta con broccoli and the diner was 17. She thought it was good. The service was not great and all of our drinks ran out multiple times. We’ve been to this restaurant before and liked it well enough. Each time, we’ve liked it a little less. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt on the service because it was busy, but we won’t rush back for the food.

The raviolis were great as usual. The other food orders were good, but nothing I would call outstanding. In my opinion, I felt our young server was kind of rushing us to order dinner. She also forgot the salad that came with my wife's dinner. If you want your restaurant to be five stars, you have to perform at that level. I'll try again next trip to St. Louis because everyone has an off night.

Salads were fresh, of a good size, and well presented. We tried the house salad with shrimp and the kale Caesar. The calamari batter was too salty. Nice time!

From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. The helped with the 3 month old by having a special chair for her carrier! Sauciccia reminded me of home, ravioli were verrrry toasty, and they downsized an entrée to an appetizer. 8 thumbs up from our party, even Baby Audrey!!!!

The food was good, not great. We were there at 6:30 and when my husband ordered the lasagna, he was told that they had already sold it all. Our server was kind, but overly attentive to the point that we felt we were being rushed.

It took 25 minutes before we even saw our server. The place was just over half full - we arrived at 6:00 pm. Had to flag her down just to get water glasses refilled. Food was decent but not great. Price was very good.. Very limited selection of wine. Seems like a place to go if you want a group of friends to have a pizza and a beer

We have been at Anthonino's several times and the food has always been delicious, warm and filling; in fact we usually the to take leftovers home because of the amount of food provided. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The only real problem we have encountered is the lack of parking.

Our party ordered two delectable and authentic chicken dishes, plus ravioli and a kale Caesar salad. The food was flavorful and evocative if the Sicilian kitchens of my youth. The salad dressing was also Italian, although a bit updated with the addition of feta. The bread was slightly disappointing but the Olive oil made up for it. We dined on a Thursday evening and the restaurant was filled up, a testament to good food and a good reputation. AC was too cold, otherwise, a delightful evening.

We were seated upon arrival, so that was nice considering there was a 45+ minute wait. Our server was busy, I'm sure, but the service never picked up throughout the evening. The pita that comes with the baked goat cheese was over cooked and crispy, which was a real disappointment, because the usual fluffiness of it is what makes it so good. I brought first timers with me and I had really talked it up. Unfortunately, I couldn't ask for new pita, as we didn't see our server until our dinners came out and by that time, it would have been wasted.

First, visit with friends in from out of town. Wanted to make a great impression and Liz at Anthonino"s just made our visit extremely rewarding. With calm and professional demeanor. She reviewed the specials and then gave room to close the gap on four years of not seeing each other. Her recommendations were awesome.
