Cugino's Restaurant Review

too loud slow service and unappetizing food. even the fried ravioli was sub par

Pretzels. This is the only place I knew that they were going to be good.
I called it in and they had them ready. Delicious.

OMG went there on Saturday and had their special Boss Hog sandwich they need to put this on the menu every day best sandwich ever

Awesome comfort food, great place to get some St Louis specialties!!

Good Italian food good drinks pricey parking is hard.

If you love delicious beer and amazing food this place is for you! Trust me you will not be disappointed!

Stopped in for lunch- sat at the bar and was immediately greeted, served water, and given a menu. My order was taken very quickly. They do not have a lunch menu, so do not expect lower prices or smaller portions for lunch. There really is nothing bad on the menu- according to the 3 men sitting around me that all appeared to be regulars. Lots of people ordering food for pick up, so that's always a good sign.

There is a great beer selection- haven't seen any other place like it in North County. Closer to what you would find at Itap or Global Brew- lots of local and craft taps. There are 3 beers brewed in house. You can order in a flight or by the pint.

I ordered the house salad- the house dressing was wonderful. Too thick to pour on, but thin enough that it could be spread around with my fork. It is served on the side so you can add as much as needed ($3). I also ordered the beer cheese soup ($5) and it was the BEST beer cheese soup I have ever had. Perfect amount of heat, lots of ooey cheese, and there was sausage in the soup as well to add a bit of heft. Will order again for sure.

Everything delicious, friendly people and great beer selection!

Waited over an hour to get frozen thawed out pork chops that were watery, beer selection good. But not a place to go for Italian food..It has turned in to a bar.

I arrived on a Wednesday night with a group of friends. It was difficult to find a parking place so we waited for someone to leave. Once inside we were offered a choice of two tables, one in a noisy overheated crowded room and the other in the much cooler quieter bar area. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful and seemed to be very attentive to our needs. The chef salad was light on the meat and egg but I actually prefer it that way. The house Italian dressing was thicker than expected and tasty. The house wine was well priced and a generous size. My friends seemed to enjoy their meals. If it hadn't been so noisy hot and crowded I would have rated it higher.

Great food as well as being in the running for the best IPAs in the St. Louis area.

Highly recommend the "Frenched Pork Chop"! It's sauted and topped with mushrooms and a Cajun cream sauce. It's fantastic!!

I work there as a dishwasher so I see the effort and work put into the meals made there, top quality food and service

Great food,fun staff I had the buffalo chicken sandwich with provel cheese tossed it their hot sauce it was very good.

Best stuffed meat balls! The Luigi smash burger is great too! Good beer and excellent service. I will be back.

They already have a great restaurant and fantastic bar and now they are brewing BEER!

The people that work there are very polite and always have good food.

Amazing service, good drinks, and large portions. They have a little bit of everything and its all worth the price.

Spectacular food, great service, and great beer. This is a must eat place.

Great beer selection and servers who know their way around the menu. No frills verging on divey but friendly service and decent food.

Best choice in North County with a nice range of menu options, a wide range of brews friendly and staff

This was my favorite place to eat, for a long time. I <3 their salads.
I don't like that the salads have become smaller and the prices have gotten higher.
The bread is also very good.

Ordered the baked mostaccioli. I was craving pasta, and decided on one of the old St. Louis standbys. It's not really baked mostaccioli unless it's covered in provel and topped with a meatball. And that's exactly what I got. Cugino's was a fair rendition of what I was expecting: A sodden mess of gooey goodness.

Pizza is great. Chicken wings would have been better to me non breaded.

Everything was delicious!!!! Would go again and recommend it to others!!!

First of all, it's much more accurately described as a bar (as it's named irl) than an Italian restaurant (as this Google listing has it). Very little pasta, atmosphere somewhere between bar and sports bar. Looks like there are some fun burger options. There are several things on the menu described as Cajun or blackened, which this place interprets as "slightly sweet, and burned until black", rather than what "blackened" typically means in terms of spices.

Mostly, just not my cup of tea -- guessing other folks might be into it. Just go expecting a fun bar serving slightly adventurous American bar food, not "Italian restaurant".

PS: Very limited veg options

Great place to eat, friendly staff, and great beers!!!

I love this place. Great food and drinks. The boneless wings are the best in the area.

Great food! Great place to try some creative food combinations.

Steak sandwich is the best I ever had. Great beer selection.

This place is amazing love their Cajun pork chop I keep on going back and I've never had anything bad from there. Would give this place a 15 if I could I would recommend for families couples friends to go. This is by far my favorite place to eat

Absolutely the best IPA in the city is made here. Their brewer is a master at his craft. Just wish it was closer to home.

Always a great time, good food and beer selections. The staff is laid back, professional and humorous. One of my go to places.

Knowledgeable and courteous servers. Tasty food (meat lover's pizza and cod sandwich) with great beer. Good time!

Cugino's for company lunch, 20 people. Wait time was reasonable. Good ambience, clean, good neighborhood. Food and service were excellent. Would totally recommend this place. House salad dressing the best ever! The only thing I would add is spaghetti and meatballs to their menu and garlic bread with their pasta dishes. I had Cajon pasta and it was superb. Bravo Cugino's!

Great food! They brew their own beer! The staff is super nice and knows their stuff! Love this place!!!

The food was very good. Atmosphere was decent too. Price was ok. 5 star.

I love that they made a front patio. They are being very safe.

Always a good time, bartenders are amazing, food is great, wings are OUTSTANDING. Largest beer selection on tap. Me and my wifes favorite place. Gibby is the best bartender in the universe btw.

Great food and great beer. Always have excellent service. Love it here!

Quick service casual dining experience, lots of seating and great burgers are highlights for me!

This place was great! Service was amazing, whiskey was on point, the meatballs! Oh, get the meatballs and a beer and thank me later. They are a perfect combo.

Narrow Gauge Brewery had totally changed this place. Excellent good and craft beer

Local beer selection is put together with thought. The barkeeps are educated and serious about their job. 6 tv's all different and ready for any sporting event you're looking for. This ain't your average watering hole and grub stop. The separate restaurant has a more welcoming for families and simple dining experiences.

Food is delish! Great fun & comarady! They are starting a brewery in their biz! Whoa!

Loved the chicken Masala everything was fresh and very tasty had an amazing waiter. The drinks where good as well can not wait to go bk and try new things ps get the gravy fries yummmy

Just had the stuffed meatballs.... I m now questioning everything in life. These are that good!

The craft beer was okay, food service was okay. Just an okay place.

Fantastic eats! Great atmosphere and tons of flavorful custom, unique brews on tap.

Went for mother's day and it was great good. The margaritas were amazing. Would definitely go again.

This place is good for some vegetarian foods and pescatarian foods. Not a huge selection but at least 2 selections of each category.

Best hops in St. Louis, amazing food to go with their amazing beer.

Dont eat the wings! I am a huge fan of wings. I will try wings almost everywhere I go but this time it was a bad choice. The breaded bone in wings were not good, plain and simple. The "award winning" wings sauce Hot Honey is in my opinion bland and not hot at all. Maybe there other sauces are better but I won't be giving the a try anytime soon.

They've recently changed their menu, so I can't speak for everything on it now. Aside from all the new items they've added, you can't go wrong with the steak sandwich or the pizza, or most anything they have. I don't think I've had anything I didn't like. They make great drinks and have an extensive array of beer on tap and many micro brews too. Late night Friday and Saturday generally has a younger type crowd packing it in. We go there with our family all the time and a few times without the kids and it's always great. They have a side that is more of a restaurant feel, they have a more sports bar atmosphere on the other side with an additional room to hold even more people. Great for bigger groups.

The only thing better then the food was the service. Eating there 3 times now and the experience seems to get better.

St louis Italian and great craft beer, what is not to like.

Really enjoyed the food, had the chicken spiedini. I had the Trippin' Bs IPA from Narrow Gauge, it was very good. Look forward to going back and trying some more items.

Excellent food, fair prices, great beer selection, friendly staff, conveniently located to my work. The chicken modiga sandwich is real tasty. A great, unique experience and an easy recommendation.

Great food, beer, and service. Never had a bad experience. If I had to nitpick, I would say their beers are a little pricey for the size of the pours compared to some other breweries, but it's hard to complain.

I just tried this place for the 1st time after living in Hazelwood for 7 years. And can I tell you the food is amazing and the customer service is the best I have seen in awhile. Please come and try the large selection of beer. And the Cajun pasta is to die for.

Nice hometown place that has been there for quite a long time & happy that they still are. . They have great flavor chicken & steak dishes- Very tasty !! An interesting twist on nachos, very different and so good. More than enough for 4 people. Can have simpler less expensive dishes or sandwiches as well. Love the outdoor seating option & cocktails are good too ! Outdoor seating is nothing fancy, but in this area it's hard to come by & thats why we like it there too. I think its good for families as well as couples of any age & a place to gather with friends. Service was good for us & we really like the laid back atmosphere.

My family and I are here eating pizza,nachos chicken the food is great. Service kind of slow. I will come back

Great food, excellent beer selection. Took last minute reservations for 11 people for a 1pm reservation.
