Best for local foods
Naturally, the most popular St. Louis restaurants are in the city’s trendiest districts, from Central West End to the Loop - and since St. Louis boasts so many of them, it’s hard to make a choice. Begin with St. Louis original foods, served in many of its local eateries, from budget to mid-priced. Try the famous Barbecued Pork Steaks, St. Louis style, red hot riplets or, why not, St. Louis style pizza, made with Provel cheese. For international fare, try the Loop’s award-winning restaurants. Italian is best served on the Hill.
