" I visited this restaurant during the weekend, and it was a little busy, so suggested to reserve a table in advance. The food was delightful—fresh and hot! I tried their famous ravioli and was satisfied with the portion sizes. However, my server wasn’t very attentive at my table, which left me feeling a little neglected. The ambience was decent and fit the Italian theme well. Would likely come back but hope for better service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic dining experience! Charlie Gitto's has everything you want in an Italian restaurant. The toasted ravioli was crispy and filled with flavor, while the lasagna was rich and hearty. Our server was incredibly attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The ambiance was perfect, a mix of elegance and warmth, ideal for a date night or a special celebration. I can't wait to return for another delicious meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Charlie Gitto's based on high recommendations from friends. You have to try the arancini! It melted in my mouth. My spouse had the special veal, and the flavors were amazing. The ambiance felt welcoming, although it did start to get a bit noisy as the night went on. Still, it's a beautiful establishment, and our server was very accommodating. Overall, we had a fantastic time and look forward to coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" This spot is the epitome of Italian cuisine in St. Louis. My family and I came here for a special occasion, and the decor gave us a captivating vibe. I personally enjoyed the eggplant parmesan; it was rich and fulfilling. The service was a bit slow for our liking, but the quality of the food made up for it. Their dessert options are also great—try the cannoli! Overall great experience and worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" A solid experience overall. The food was tasty, although my pasta was a bit overcooked. The server was great, very friendly. I was impressed by the lovely atmosphere and decor that felt cozy. Would likely return due to the reasonable prices and charm of the place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to a lot of Italian restaurants but none compare to the experience at Charlie Gitto's. The food was top-notch; our table loved the garlic shrimp and the rigatoni with meat sauce. What really stood out was the service—super friendly and attentive, even on a busy night! The atmosphere has a classic feel, with dim lighting that's very intimate. We had a great time here and left feeling very satisfied. Will definitely return again soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Charlie Gitto's was a lovely dinner spot! The atmosphere had a wonderful elegant charm, and I loved every bite of my meal. The seafood options were fresh, and my friend loved their pizza. The service was attentive. If you’re looking for a great Italian restaurant, this is the place! " (*Curated Review*)
