    Burrata is my favorite app. Cakes in a jar are awesome little desserts. Grab a glass of wine at the bar and chat up the very knowledgeable staff.

    The wine list ranges across the old and new world, including Romania, Slovenia, Greece and other lesser-known regions. The cocktail and beer menus are also excellent. Read more

    Try the Emerson! A blend of gin, maraschino and sweet vermouth- which add a great counterpunch to the gin- and lime to contribute some citrus as a reminder of summer.http://bit.ly/HyfWV4

    Olio is big on vegetarian options, with dishes such as lentils and goat cheese, caponata (eggplant, raisins, capers and olives) and fava bean and sweet pea puree. http://bit.ly/12YQRKj

    Stop by for an "Airmail" cocktail imbued with rum, honey, lime and Champagne for a drink that embodies springtime or try the gin and citrus "Flying Fish Cocktail." http://bit.ly/ZtLsJz

    This place really blew us away! Such a unique setting and great service. The egg salad was wonderful. I want to come back for more Aperitifs.

    Hummus was really good, as was the zucchini. Zucchini was cooked, but served cool with olive oil, lemon, and pecorino cheese. Very different, but interesting.

    Voted Best Salad in RFT's Best of STL 2013. If Oilo's Octopus Salad doesn't define the perfect salad, then we don't know what does! http://bit.ly/1coKPIC

    Great atmosphere and food but be prepared to just give them the contents of your wallet when the bill comes.

    Service at the bar was deplorable! Bartender spoke down to us when inquiring about a dish. Not attentive at all. Once food was delivered no one checked on us . Had to yell across bar to get bill
