REVIEWS Zagat Survey 2003/04 St. Louis Restaurants - "Too good for words, this storefront favorite Italian on Brentwood boasts wonderful food (the flash-fired escarole is a must-have), a 160-strong vino list, a delightful staff (Frank and Diana Papa are great hosts) and the most pleasant ambiance- perhaps that's why it's always filled with lots of regulars; for a unique experience, ask to sit in the cozy and intimate wine cellar" Joe Pollack Dining Out (September 15, 1994)- "I DON'T think I've ever met a good restaurant cook without the ambition- or dream of opening a restaurant of his (or her) own. Those who have trained to earn the title of chef are a step closer, but when you talk to sous chefs, line cooks, even fry cooks, they all have ideas for their future, and recipe files, too. Many of them are good enough, and fortunate enough to see the dream come true. For a restaurant writer, it means not only a continual spread of nice places to visit, but also the joy of watching happy people doing what they like to do. Frank Papa is one of those former chefs who is now a restaurant owner. His new establishment, Frank Papa's Ristorante, 2241 South Brentwood Boulevard, is a notable addition to the city's already fine collection of Italian restaurants. The menu is not that different form many similar restaurants, but there's an exuberance to the cooking that brings it to the table steaming with mouthwatering aromas ad with a classic, elegant look. ........St. Louisans never seem to tire of Italian restaurants, and there's now another outstanding one in the community." _______________________________________ Click Here to see Alternate Routes to Brentwood Blvd with the I-64/Hwy 40 closure
