Roberto's Trattoria

Seafood pasta, lobster bisque, and grouper…the grouper was one of the best meals I’ve ever had! Our waitress was amazing and all the staff were super attentive and on top of everything! It was a wonderful experience!

The service was amazing and the food was prepared with great care! Thank you ! Molly as great! She was fun and well organized with having 6 tables! She was On her game! Chicken Spiedini and Veal Piccata with Bruschetta! Great date night with Jen!

A Saint Louis County Gem. The food, cocktails, and service are top-notch. Highly recommend the bar area - it a cozy and comfortable atmosphere, and Bob’s (bartender) service is very attentive to all of the guests. This week we took advantage of the special (black squid ink lobster ravioli), homemade tortellini soup - by far the best soup I ever had!, and the amazingly delicious caesar salad. Their baked mussels are luxuriously self-indulgent! Must top off every meal with the award winning dessert cocktail: KGB (Kahlua, Homemade Gelato, and Baileys) 🏆 Roberto’s is an easy choice to make for my husband and I any day of the week!

Decided to celebrate my birthday at Roberto’s and no only was I not disappointed but this restaurant made such an indelible impression that will bring me back on regular and special occasions. Bob the bartender is the BEST!!! the food was extraordinary and the atmosphere was exquisite. The owner Matt Hines came over to thank me personally for celebrating my special occasion with them. This is absolutely the premiere Italian resultant in St Louis!!

Expect to spend a lot more at this restaurant than many other places. The quality of the food justifies the costs, in my opinion. The calamari was not the best that I have had, although it was pretty good. The special handmade pasta plate had shrimp that was huge and so exquisitely cooked. The seafood pasta was phenomenal! The restaurant has a nice ambiance; the wait staff was friendly and attentive. If you want to impress someone, a meal at this restaurant may just help you achieve that goal.

After a horrendous week back at work post-vacation, I was feeling like a wilted flower desperate for some R&R. All I wanted was to crawl into a dark room and hibernate. But then, a glimmer of hope appeared in the form of an invitation to Roberto's Trattoria, a hidden gem in a nondescript strip mall. Walking in, I immediately felt underdressed in my casual attire, but was quickly distracted by the Copa Americas game playing on the TV behind the bar. I requested a table where I could dine and watch the game, and was pleasantly surprised by the cozy high top table I was led to. The evening unfolded with homemade bread, refreshing drinks, and delectable Italian cuisine. Stuffed mushrooms, spaghetti with four meatballs, and blacked grouper from Florida graced our table, creating a culinary masterpiece that surpassed my wildest expectations. As the stress melted away with each delicious bite, I found myself in a state of pure bliss. Roberto's Trattoria not only satisfied my hunger, but also provided a brief escape from the daily grind. It's amazing how good food, great company, and a little distraction can turn a rough week around. So here's to Roberto's Trattoria - a place where life's worries fade away amidst a backdrop of savory delights. Cheers to forgetting it all, if only for a moment.

I've been wanting to stop in here for quite awhile. I had a rest day from the gym so headed in for lunch. I had the chicken Alfredo. They didn't have broccoli which was surprising but the meal was definitely delicious! I normally frequent Bartolino's up the street. However, I must say, Robert's Alfredo is definitely one of the beat ones I've had yet. Broccoli would have made it better but still worth it. I'll definitely be back.

When we walked in, some people finished and was leaving the restaurant noticing we are reading the menu and he said, everything was good here. Any foodies will know, each restaurant will have it's popular dish that they do well, but not every dish. Well, I guess I was wrong. Chicken Parmigiana - that was an extra dish to share so we didn't start on it until later, but it was still crispy, cheese was just right amount, the sauce was excellent, just right, not to sour (tomatoes) just perfectly seasoned sauce. Chicken was tender, not too thick. Shrimp - Nicely grilled, very fresh and crisp. It's impressive. Chicken Spiedini - I didn't taste too much of it, not my dish but the stuffing was very tasty, the sauce was delicious, just the right taste. Lobster tagliatelle - My dish, mine! My precious! It was the best. I forgot to check how much it costs but it didn't matter. So much lobster meat, the sauce is delicious, the pasta was al dente. The only thing is, I shouldn't have ordered the lobster bisque, I think the sauce is based on the bisque or may be the same. Fried calamari - Was I impressed. I've had so many fried calamari and this one is nicely done. Perfectly done in fact. Some fried Calamari I had before were slightly soggy, you can see oil on the plate, battered came off and oily as well. But here, calamari were crispy, the battered didn't come off, not a lot of oil on the plate and it's crispy not soggy. They truly done a wonderful job with it. I was particularly impressed with their thoughtfulness where they wrapped the you go box. So thoughtful! So the sauce will not spill out. What a find! I've been to many many excellent Italian restaurant and many many pasta trip to Italy but those place is special. What a gem! When you look at the entrance you definitely going to wonder may be it's not too late to go some where else. But the inside decor is very nice. Guess you can't judge a book by the cover.

A little hidden gem in south county St. Louis. Oh, this is one of the nicer restaurants in south county. Tucktaway in a little strip mall near Joey Bs. Today we sat at the bar and had a drink and appetizers and a salad. All were excellent and the bartender was an excellent server. I’ve never been disappointed when I’ve been here for a full meal. Service has always been good and the food has always been exceptional. Kind of funny though because when I come here for my birthday like three years in a row it’s been on a Monday when they were closed. Lol .

Amazing dinner tonight! Quickly seated, great service, amazing appetizers and entrees. Kids loved the fettuccine and tortellini. I had the sea bass which melt in your mouth and had so much flavor. My husband had the rigatoni with huge pieces of crab claws and shrimp. Everyone left very full and so happy! We will definitely be coming back! The owner was so nice and personable. Must visit if in St. Louis. You will not be disappointed!
