Maryland Heights Restaurants

St. Louis may be most known for the smoky flavors of its famous barbecue, but one cannot understate the importance that Italian cuisine has played on the region's food culture. Fried ravioli is a signature staple in the city, but journey out to Maryland Heights, and you'll find a range of traditional restaurants vying for your attention. West County has housed multiple Italian restaurants run by local Mike Del Pietro, but his is only the smallest in a cottage industry of classical old-world dining experiences. If you're looking for something more modern, you'll discover an abundance of New American options that center themselves on esoteric menus built around beer pairings and sustainable and fresh ingredients sourced from local farmers.
