Katie's Pizza Pasta Osteria

I came to visit my boyfriend in Saint Louis from Texas and his mom suggested going to Katie 's Pizza Pasta Osteria since she thought that it would be a fun vibe for us kids in our early 20s. She was right! The vibe was very cute, we sat outside and the patio was decorated really nicely and the staff was very kind which added to the atmosphere. The waitress suggested for drinks to try the Lifeaholic cocktail drink. She said that this was her favorite drink and that if I liked fruity drinks it would be a great order. I am so glad that I took her advice, because it was one of the best drinks that I have had in a while! I even took a photo of the drink on the menu so I could try to recreate it when I got home. It contained blackberry-infused Pimms, lemon, simple syrup, and fresh black tea. For food we split the wood-roasted chicken pizza which was very delicious and the arugula reginette. Of the two, I enjoyed the pizza better as it had a good mix of garlic, goat cheese, chicken, and greens! The pasta was good, but not the best of the items that I ordered. Consider going to Katies for good food and drinks!

I chose Katie's for a business lunch last week and it didn't disappoint. The weather looked to beautiful so I made a patio reservation. While it was perfect patio weather, it was great that the host checked to see if I still wanted to sit outside. My server introduced herself right away and got me an iced tea while I waited for my colleague. Ruby was friendly and upbeat and frequently checked in on us during our visit. We chose to split the chopped salad and margherita pizza. Both were so delicious. First, the chopped salad at Katie's is one of my favorite in St. Louis. It offers the right combination of ingredients as well as the right portions. And the amount of dressing is perfect. The margherita pizza is such a simple dish, yet so flavorful. My colleague raved about the food! Plus, we had enough to take food home. Katie's is always a great choice!

I was wondering what the hype is about this place. I even heard people saying this place their favorite! So I wanted to check out. Figured, just another overrated place in St.Louis. First of all, we didn't make a reservation and they told us the wait time is 20-30 min. After 45 min we had to stand by the host and remind her we were in line, bc she kept giving other couples (who came way after us) tables. So their wait list doesn't work properly. We came here around 6.30pm and we were finally able to place our orders at 8pm. Service was very slow, even if the restaurant wasn't busy anymore. Lots of butter on pastas, just butter. Only flavor was lemon zest, so it could help neutralizing the heavy taste of butter, but this thing needs more help than that. Calamari wasn't fresh, it was chewy and deep frying is a way to cover that fault. Their Oregon Pinot Nero tasted like vinegar. Second one was a different Nero from somewhere else (this is what they told us) and it was much better. Btw, their heated outdoor patio is nice. Paying $130+tax (for 2) for this food experience is not nice.

Thomas was great and super cool guy 10/10 food was good but even better as Thomas served it

Always a scrumptious meal! Split the Ezzo Pepperoni pizza and the Fioro Arrabiata with a friend. Both so good! I'd love to have a little more honey drizzle on the pizza. The savory and sweet is so good together. The pasta was perfectly cooked al dente. Be back soon!
