Hard to pass up a reasonably priced 4-course tasting menu. I was eating alone and didn't have a reservation but I was happy to sit at the bar and eat.
Food was good, grounded and unpretentious. Had roasted beet salad (to not have every course be heavy heavy heavy), pici cacio e pepe (my one main gripe...it's not pici, was obviously extruded and not hand formed), duck confit (probably the most satisfying course) and salted caramel Panna cotta (pretty basic).

Simply fantastic food and service. NOT STL style Italian food, but instead authentic Italian fare. The food makes me feel like we are back in Italy. If you've never been to Italy, try Acero for dinner and you will get a feel for the flavors served like you were on your own personal trip. Excellent wine selection. We have received outstanding service on all of our visits.

We both got the 4 course meal so we had 8 different things to try and each was better than the last. The food was unbelievable! One of my strongest recommendations in STL. We had no idea and are so glad that we stumbled into this place.

This is as good as it gets. Our server guided us through a fantastic culinary evening with deep knowledge of the dishes (down to the sourcing of ingredients) and wine pairings to go with them. The Crudo had incredible flavor and POP! the Tagliatelle Ragu was authentic and on point, while the scallops were simply perfection. For dessert I went with an Afogato from their Simonelli espresso maker...and then I went to heaven. Will 100% be back.

We just had out first visit, and it was wonderful. Food was delicious. They were really good about accommodating a vegan diet. Our server Jerry was great. We loved it!

We had the four-course dinner and my wife had the wine pairing. The food was delicious and the courses were well-timed. The pairings were wonderful as well! This is the best Italian food I have had in St. Louis.

Just an amazing meal, I'm surprised this place doesn't get more press. A couple of minor service hiccups, but I'm already excited about my next trip back. The BYO tasting menu is absolutely the way to go btw

The food and ambience was so great. I love that they don’t use seed oils and the food is fresh and delicious. Our waiter was great too.

Life-changing. The food was life changing. Zern was quite possibly the best server I have ever had. He was an absolute delight for the whole table and went above and beyond. The whole wait staff did. The music was a little strange for a classy Italian restaurant, kind of club like? But when the food came out, we were absolutely enamored. This is not a frugal experience, but definitely one worth saving for!

My wife and I dined here tonight and the best description of the food was, sublime. Really outstanding, we both had the seven course chef's tasting menu, and each dish was consumately balanced. Service was impeccable. The wine list is impressive. The restaurant was a little loud at its peak capacity but elegantly decorated and lit, with a nice selection of modern jazz to suit the decor. This is a gem of the fine dining scene here in St. Louis.
