No matter your age, interests or budget, you’ll find something fun to do in St. Louis this weekend.
Mangia bene, vivi felice. Eat well, live happy. On The Hill in St. Louis, the mantra rings true.
Founded by Italian immigrants in the early 1800s, the unique St. Louis neighborhood has a rich history – plus, a scrumptious selection of consumables. Fill up on toasted ravioli, hot salami sandwiches, bruschetta, caponata, salsiccia, cannoli, gelato and more; then, shop for goods and gifts that you won’t find anywhere else.
Among the mom-and-pop shops, authentic Italian bakeries, well-established trattorie and fine-dining restaurants, 21st-century establishments – think coffee shops, breweries, taco joints and studios – have sustained the energy of the cozy enclave over the years.
Residents and visitors alike flock to The Hill to explore the tight-knit neighborhood, enjoy a family-friendly feast and even play a game of bocce.
“Locals already know this, but for visitors to St. Louis, I want to emphasize that The Hill is a must-see neighborhood,” restaurateur Joe Smugala enthuses. “I think I speak for all the establishments on The Hill when I say that we hope you’ll spend time here, getting to know what we’re all about.”
Step into inviting eateries, where classic comforts and sophisticated surprises await.
Deep-fried stuffed pillows of pasta – need we say more? Toasted ravioli – or t-ravs, as the locals call them – are St. Louis’ quintessential appetizer, and on The Hill, you can savor the recipes that started it all.
