Reviews for Pio's Restaurant and Cocktail Lounge in St Charles, MO

Had shrimp cocktail, clam chowder and side salad with blue cheese for lunch. Five large shrimp with nice cocktail sauce but... shrimp had zero flavor. Chowder tasted like from a can. Salad was basic bag iceberg lettuce, some brown leafs with two cherrytomatoes and blue cheese on top. Cost me $25. Read more

We ate lunch there yesterday. Chicken and dumplings, husband had roast beef dinner and a cup of vegetable soup. Everything... soooo good. Oh, and split homemade coconut meringue pie! Sorry no pics as we were too excited to eat our food! Read more

We got breaded artichoke, really good with a little salt. A side salad, the blue cheese was superb. Thin crust pizza... tomato,bacon, sausage. Our waitress was really nice, and we had an amazing dinner. Absolutely loved the location, there's anice area on cobblestone to take a stroll Definitely one of my new favorite places to eat and enjoy a great evening. Read more

Had a very nice evening meal at Pio?s. Jennie was our server and provided excellent service. The lasagna was excellent. The blue... cheese dressing was most excellent. The atmosphere at this restaurant is very relaxing and worth your time to visit. Read more

This has been my favorite go to restaurant for over a decade. I was very exited to go back after not having been there for a... while. It has definitely gone downhill. First it was like pulling teeth to get drinks, and although the place was busy it wasfar from packed, or even as busy as usual for a Friday night. It took forever not just to get food, but all the side items thatshould have come with our meals. Never did get bread we just gave up on the bread. I ordered the prime rib medium and a lobstertail. The prime rib was a fatty overcooked mess and did not even resemble the prime rib I remember. The lobster tail was friedeven though I did not order it that way, specifically ordered steamed with extra butter. He reluctantly put in for anothersteamed one, but when I got it it was luke warm and rubbery, and never did get butter to go with it. Definitely not the place itwas either in service or quality. Probably won?t be back. Read more

Ok, I'm going to maintain my upmost honesty on these reviews... I was a little nervous about our meal when we walked in and saw... the dated and desperately in need of updating decor. We started our meal with some fried mushroom type appetizer. The server didexplain in great detail the variation of fried mushrooms and we both got sadly disappointed by the strange concoction. I wasworried that we may have made a poor decision in dinner. We ordered the house special pizza with low expectations. That pizzawas amazing! We ate almost all of it and looked forward to the left overs the next day! Absolutely loved it! The service was topnotch and the price was reasonable. Read more

The service was OUTSTANDING!! Erica waited on us and she was beyond good. We had the stuffed mushrooms. They make them... differently there, which they tell you on the menu and Erica warned me. We did not care for them, as they are deep fried almostto being burnt. BUT, that does not factor in this review, as I was told about and I decided to try them. What factors into thisreview, is my mom got a dinner salad, which it was not even close...it was iceberg lettuce, nothing else...literally nothing notomatoes, no croutons, egg nothing. We were charged extra for the salad. Blue cheese dressing was described as sour cream basewith blue cheese crumbles...there is no base it sour cream with blue cheese...it is not good. I had the french onionsoup...that was Beyond excellent. I could have eaten a ton if that...and should have. We both ordered 2 Mostaccioli with meatsauce. (Here is where I let you know prices on their website do not match the present menu...understandably with the price risetoday, also not part of the review...just a warning). The noodles were way over cooked, mushy. The sauce barely has meat init...even though you pay more for meat sauce...and honestly, I am sure it is homemade, but it tasted exactly like Ragu.Absolutely no seasoning. BLAND.. Had 2 to go desserts. We wanted to leave becz it was so incredibly hot in there we weresweating. Pineapple cream cake and turtle cheesecake...both excellent and worth every penny. I had 1 glass of wine orderedlike this "I would like a cheap blush" I was brought a glass of Sutter House...which was fine, fyi..6.00 a glass. The billcame to 69.24. (We drink water for dinner.) For what is basically what you can make at home, better. The bread was good butjust bread...you pay extra for garlic bread. Now are you thinking " well you ate it"...no we did not. I took everything hometo feed to my dogs and the squirrels in the backyard. We were starving when we got there and starving when we left. Read more
