Description

Rome? Or Madrid? At Guido's you don't have to decide. This Hill institution serves tasty Italian fare, including one of the city's best thin-crust pies, and authentic, knockout Spanish tapas. While Guido's has no pretensions of being a tapas bar in the Spanish sense, owner and chef Miguel Carretero and his parents Segundo (front of house, including wine) and Genoveva (executive chef) hail from Madrid, and Guido's tapas are as close to the real deal as you can find in this town: soul-satisfying albóndigas (meatballs), spicy patatas bravas (sautéed potatoes in a picante sauce), the striking charbroiled squid dish calamares a la plancha and more.

    1st- Rude staff *misconception, it is not novel to be treated like you're on the bus in Italy* Don't throw my food on the table and treat me like an inconvenience! 2nd- Food plain sucks (all the way around) Really look at what they serve you (old dry white bread with butter... pre-sliced pre-packaged WalMart style, sauces that are as home-made as my left shoe... which, I believe they served in place of the clams with the oily, garlic infused mess on my plate! 3rd- Dessert... Please run away and hide from their dry stale Tiramisu. It was horrible! 4th- Made the mistake of ordering 2 pizzas to go (this is like eating a cardboard box... hope you like Oregano (as though they shook a dime bag of the stuff all over the wispy pie) 5th- Since I've been writing this review my boy who ate pizza has gone to the bathroom and is now expelling the demonic pizza from both ends of his aching gut. My wife and I believe this to be in the top 10 worst restaurants in St. Louis... 1 word... *AVOID*

  • 2011 | Best Use of the Worst Cheese

    Here's what you do: You go to Guido's Pizzeria and Tapas on the Hill, and you say, "Chorizo pizza with mixed cheese." You see, Spanish chorizo bears almost no resemblance to its Mexican namesake. While the latter gets cooked up and crumbled into eggs or greasy cheese dip, Spanish chorizo slices dry, like salami. On a pizza, it flat-out slays pepperoni. And when you order your pie with mixed cheese at Guido's, the kitchen will temper the ooze of Provel with mozzarella. And when you put the... More »

  • 2010 | Best Never Went

    Tapas restaurants come and go. Maybe they call their food "small plates" instead of "tapas," but they still want to plug into the same long-outdated trend that usually has nothing to do with actual Spanish tapas -- either specific Spanish dishes or the general spirit of traveling from this bar to the next, snacking on what's good, washing it down with a few drinks. For true tapas you must visit Guido's Pizzeria & Tapas on the Hill, which predates the tapas trend and will almost... More »

  • 2007 | Best Italian Restaurant (Cheap)

    Forget for a moment that Guido's cooks up some of the best, most authentic Spanish dishes in town. (It's hard, we know. Try hypnosis, if necessary.) The Carreteros may originally be from Madrid, but they happen to serve pasta dishes as tasty as just about anything you'll find on the Hill -- tasty and cheap. A dish of spaghetti is $5.50 (meatballs extra), lasagna $6.50 and carbonara (made with pancetta) only $7.25. And there's good reason why this place is called Guido's Pizzeria & Tapas:... More »
