4 years ago we went to a nice steak place which served a baked potato the size of a shoe and a whole head of broccoli for a veggie....Don't remember the name.
Deirdorf and Harts maybe? They have two or three locations, one downtown another out in Westport (in the county).
Don't forget about
The Hill. It's some of the best Italian food this side of the Atlantic (literally). The Hill is where our Italian community lives. Tons of great restaraunts. You can spend as much or as little as you want. Mostly, the price is going to be governed by how nice the furnsihings are in the restaraunt. Great part of that is, you can get the same great Italian dinner at a place that isn't all silk and lace at about half the cost. The Hill starts at Kingshiway and 44 and runs south and west. Just follow the signs when you get off the hiway.
Oh, after a great meal on the Hill you have to stop by Ted Drewes and get a concrete (frozen custard). It's a St Louis original and is
to die for. Fat food at it's best
The other night you could always go to
The Loop, have dinner and people watch. Thats another fun place to hang out.
