Meglio's Italian

Following a dress down from Robert Irvine, Meglio's Italian Grill and Bar in Bridgeton has started fresh with an updated décor and menu. In a stylish and open setting, with pizza pan art on the walls, Meglio's offers a reserved menu of classic Italian dishes. Starters include fresh-made toasted ravioli and a trio of fried cheeses. Soups and salads are available, such as Tuscan soup with potatoes, sausage, bacon, onion and kale in a light cream, and a char-grilled yellowfin salad with sun-dried tomatoes, saffron yogurt, feta and lemon dust in a balsamic-honey reduction. The updated entrée menu has spaghetti and meatballs, a seared black Angus fillet, and a pan-seared fillet of bronzino served over a marinara sauce and potato hash. Meglio's also bakes Luigi's pizzas, an old St. Louis standard, rectangular and crispy, with several different toppings offered.
