   The food was very good. Thoroughly enjoyed every dish. We both did the 4 course tasting and it was more than enough food. We elected to do the wine flight and our waiter paired our wines with our dishes perfectly. This is a gem of a restaurant and I would highly recommend it.

   Nice and cozy restaurant. Food was OK not impressive. Pasta is overcooked but flavorful. At > $ 30 price tag, pasta should be better. Appetizer was OK as well.

   Surprised my fiancé with a night out at Acero. The great service and unbelievable flavor in all the food will keep us coming back! Also the pasta sauce reminded me of my grandmas which I can’t get anywhere!

   This was our fourth visit to Acero. We had excellent service; every course was outstanding. We also ordered the wine flight to accompany our meal. Perfect selections. This place is a gem! Highly recommended.

   Really enjoy Acero. The offerings are imaginative and well-prepared. Nice atmosphere; easy to have conversations; quiet level. The egg raviolo is to die for! We'll be back.

    Acero never disappoints! We always get the tasting menu, which is a tremendous value considering the price of food right now. The Raviolo is a must! The wait staff is friendly and helpful with explaining the dishes and suggesting wine pairings.

    Four course tasting menu was very pleasing, fresh ingredients, creative flavorful cuisine. Server was quite good appropriately attentive and knowledgeable. A foodie's delight with exception of the ambience. Four course tasting menu seemed like the best "value" choice even though we wouldn't have ordered pasta courses or dessert otherwise but was a bit surprised at all the extra charges on top of the set price depending on your selections. So maybe a la carte would've been a better choice after all. The reason I wouldn't recommend Acero to a friend is the intolerable noise level. We were shouting and straining to hear each other as a party of four for three hours while we were attempting to enjoy what would otherwise been a lovely dining experience. Think we will pass on Acero unless and until noise level is appropriate for a fine dining experience.

    Outstanding selection of delicious Italian wines! Right-on-the-dot recommendations of dishes (appetizers, main course and desserts) to suit everyone’s preferences. Including customized adaptation! Excellent service with a smile! One of our friends wanted to get a dish to go at the last minute - and Haris fulfilled her request going above and beyond our expectations. Very welcoming front desk staff with a lot of attention to detail. Lovely ambience. All of us want to visit again and bring more friends. Highly recommended!

    Our special occasion felt special from the moment we walked in the door. The menu customized to recognize us was a nice touch. The prix fixe meal was a great option. Each course was a treasure with the standouts the giant ravioli and sea bass.

    Thourougly enjoyed my evening at Acero. Would recommend to friends looking for fine dining in the area. The only reason it is a 4 and not a 5 is the ambiance could be elevated. This is owned by the same people as The Crossing and that is a sold 5 star. At Acero I didn’t care for the taped on post it’s with the cost on a few of the paintings and the wine pairings could have been explained in a little more detail. Still a wonderful choice for a date night or special occasion if you’re in the Maplewood area instead of Clayton. The Goat Cheese dessert and Egg Raviolo were both stand outs!

    Acero is one of my very favorite restaurants anywhere in the country. The chef, the presentation, the flavor profiles, the pairings are impeccable every time I come. I’m a foody, however my wife is not. I spent weeks talking her into the grand chef’s tasting menu with the wine pairings. I sold her on the obvious incredible food, but more so the information about the dish and the flavor profiles and how and why it pairs with that particular wine. She was so excited, finally. With that said, when I made the reservation on open table I took the only reservation available at 8:30pm. I followed up with a call to the restaurant to tell them I wanted the grand chefs tasting menu with wine pairings, where I requested the egg ravioli be a part of the menu, which was confirmed. On the late afternoon of the reservation Acero called and asked if I was willing to move my reservation earlier due to how busy they were at the time of my 8:30pm reservation. With that little notice my wife and I could only accommodate them to 8pm. Upon showing up the greeter looked a little surprised when I have my name for the grand tasting menu. She proceeded to seat us at 2 top between a 4 top that was already sat and an open 4 top that was tucked in the corner. Once we were sat for a short period of time, the same greeter sat another party of 2 at that 4 top tucked in the corner who appeared to be only drinking and eating lightly. We were greeted with water and menu’s and asked if we wanted anything to drink. I had to inform the young man we were there for the grand chefs tasting menu, which surprised him. He walked away, to which I figured he was going to get our waiter, but when when he returned he was our waiter. His name was Luke and it was his 2nd day in the Resturant waiter business. He was a very nice young man and will thrive in any endeavor he chooses. Unfortunately he was not ready for a $500 tasting menu on his 2nd night. We didn’t know what we were eating or drinking.

    We returned to Acero after 2 years given Covid. We had a wonderful meal. Great dining experience There were 3 of us and each opted for the 4 course prix fixe.. The service was great. The server was very knowledgeable about the food and wine and recommended a bottle of wine which we enjoyed. The only complaint I had was the bucatini pasta which I thought was too thick and doughy however the Amatriciana sauce was excellent Definitely recommend the restaurant and we will return
