Dine & Drink

Welcome to the Next Great Food City

As the region’s food-and-beverage scene continues to grow, innovate, diversify and delight, there’s talk of St. Louis becoming a tastemaker in the culinary world.

We’re fortunate to have a plethora of excellent restaurants, coffee shops and confectioners alongside award-winning breweries, distilleries and wineries throughout our neighborhoods.

On South Grand Boulevard alone, you can dine on Turkish kebabs, Ethiopian injera, Italian arancini, Indian curry, Cantonese steamed buns, all-beef hot dogs, plant-based pizza and vegan tacos, just to name a few delicious bites. Wash it all down with craft beers, French wines, gin cocktails and spicy margaritas.

A scrumptious assortment of Bosnian and Vietnamese restaurants also dots the culinary landscape, and new establishments continue to push boundaries and define local flavor.

While we highly recommend dining and drinking at creative, contemporary spots, it would be remiss of us not to encourage you to taste our emblematic eats, as well. From toasted ravioli to St. Louis-style pizza to gooey butter cake, every iconic dish comes with its own history, tradition and irresistible flavor.

Whatever you’re craving, St. Louis has it. Let’s dig in!
