Reviews for Acero in Maplewood, MO
Do yourself a giant favor and treat yourself to the tasting menu. You choose 1 starter, 1 pasta, 1 entree, and 1 dessert from... the menu. Even with the smaller portions, you are pretty much guaranteed to leave happy and satisfied. Pro tip. Highlyrecommend the Tagliolini (but if you hate mushrooms, stay away from that dish!) ….and although the wine pairings wereincredible, as a “tut tut, it tastes like red” person… next time we will just buy a bottle… or two for a comparablecost. Book a reservation. Now. Read more
A wonderful special occasion place! I feel it makes most sense to do the tasting menu price-wise, and you get a really good feel... for their food. The dessert and pasta were the stars for me! Read more
Delicious. We did the 4 course tasting menu
Let me start by saying the ambiance of this place is so nice. Our service was great. Now, on to the food. EVERYTHING was... outstanding! My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary here and I’d have to say that it is the perfect date nightexperience. We did the tasting menu and so glad we did! I highly suggest the egg raviolo. My boyfriend and I both took a biteand just looked at each other in awe at how amazing and flavorful it was! For the main dish I had the chicken Milanese and myboyfriend had the lamb. Again, incredible! Finished off with the chocolate torte and the panna cotta. Both delicious! I can notsay enough good things about this place! It’s a little pricey, but absolutely worth every penny!

Was pleasantly surprised!! While the menu is small everything we tried was delicious. Mastered to a tee! The gnocco fritto was... so cool - an airy dough topped with prosciutto. The crudo, to me, is pretty much a salmon/tuna tartare (delicious). My motherloved her spaghetti alle vongole. I had the chicken milanese, and i ascended to the heavens and back. Cocktails were alsodelicious, good pour. Overall, a great place, I would come back. Read more
Fabulous tasting menu, 4 courses, unique Italian dishes, expertly plated. If you have Gretchen as your server you are especially... fortunate. Read more
I went there for my birthday dinner and it was one of the best meals of my life. Do the tasting menu-four courses! I was amazed... how they made salad taste so good. Mushroom pasta was the best pasta ever! Read more
This is in the top 5 of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis. They obviously put significant effort into their food, the... raviolo is ridiculously good, but so is everything else. I highly recommend the tasting menu in order to experience a bunch ofdishes. Read more
