🇮🇹 New Italian Gem in St. Louis! ✨

📍 545 W Port Plaza Dr, St. Louis, MO 63146 (Reservations recommended—we waited just 5 mins!) 🍽️ What We Devoured: 🦑 Crispy Calamari UNEXPECTEDLY AMAZING! Tender squid + smashed tomato base + pickled banana peppers on top (their pickled game is STRONG 💥). 🥔 Parmesan-Crusted Potatoes "Very potato-y potatoes" 🥔—crispy outside, fluffy inside. Simple but cheesy comfort food. 🐟 Swordfish Juicy & buttery (edges slightly overdone), topped with spicy pickled peppers & greens—flavor bomb! 🌶️ 🦐 Shrimp Pasta Al dente tubular pasta + QQ fresh shrimp in a tangy, umami tomato sauce with a hint of heat. SO GOOD. 🍸 Cocktails Strong but meh—stick with wine! Their house white (Full White) was 👌 (though we’re no wine experts 😅). 🧁 Tiramisu Classic with dark chocolate bits for extra texture. Solid, but not life-changing. 💸 Worth It? Yes! Great portions, super-friendly staff, and bold flavors. Check the menu for prices—we left happy! #StLouisEats #ItalianFoodHeaven #NewRestaurantAlert #FoodieApproved #PastaLover #STLFoodScene
