    Stack salad sounded good and tasted even better. Soup of the day, cream of spinach with chicken, was excellent. Wife and I both had the veal saltimboca, which was delicious. Nice touch offering the pasta side aglio/olio as an option to standard marinara, although it could have used more garlic. Sizable wine list with numerous good choices. Service was first rated.

    Blow your mind cocktails done perfectly. Not some basic Hotel cocktails put together by children. Know these were professional craft cocktail people. The Thanksgiving spread was second to none possibly the best I’ve seen around the world.

    Not inexpensive but a tremendous value because everything they do is top-notch without being pretentious or stuffy. The Crossing has long been on my short list of the best restaurants in St. Louis, but over the last few years it has really separated itself from the pack in my opinion and pretty much stands alone at this point, at least for what I'm looking for. Keep up the fantastic work!

    We went early at 5pm before it got crowded or too loud. Had a great round table for 6 and could visit with and hear everyone at the table. Food was delicious.
