Katie’s Pizza & Pasta is always reliable for an excellent meal and drinks

Sauce 75: the essential St. Louis restaurants right now

With three St. Louis-area locations – Ballpark Village, Town & Country and Rock Hill – Katie’s Pizza & Pasta is always reliable for an excellent meal and drinks. The burrata black garlic “cheese bread” is a pizza-style dish the Sauce staff can’t get enough of, but there’s so much to like about the expansive menu, from the blood orange citrus salad to the pumpkin cappelletti. Look out also for the regular seasonal specials. The Ballpark Village location is so massive that you can often get in without a reservation – watching the Katie’s team roll and cut fresh pasta right before your eyes is an added perk.

(Seventy-five is a lot fewer than you think!) Restaurants are constantly growing and evolving and go through ups and downs. Newly opened restaurants can take time to find their feet: There are a few exciting new places we’re cheering for, but which we feel haven’t yet fully hit their stride. Read the entire list here.
