    Celebrating 60 bday and it was above expectations . Every course and wine pairing was perfect. Absolutely delish and like no other. Not rushed thru meal, small and intimate without being aloof.

    Amazing service. The food was delicious. Love that most everything is created in house and/or sourced locally. The only place where I find eating mushrooms an enjoyable experience.

    The farm-to-table aspect of JDevoti was appealing as many of the Italian restaurants in the Hill area of St. Louis aren’t. Food is super fresh. The menu is a 4-course fixed price. We only has to choose one of two entrees which are offered. The night we were there we opened with an appetizer of arancini, then moved onto a salad. For our main I had scallops and my friend had lasagna. Both were memorably delicious. To end the evening we had olive oil cake with a scoop of ice cream. Food in Italy is so tasty because it is fresh. The food at JDevoti is equally amazing. So unique yet reminiscent of food from Italy. We will be back for sure.

    Review takes into context the above average cost of a dinner for two. Good food, good environment. The menu is too rigid. Understand the focus on seasonal but it’s still too rigid. Service was variable. Server was inexperienced but host and support personnel were fantastic.

    Total disappointment. don't like new fixed menu. Old system much better. Service wea very slow, even with dining room less than half full. Was not offered any bread with meal (at $60 a plate?). Had often recommended you place previously, but will not be doing so going forward. We started with you when you first started down on Manchester in the "Grove". Dave and Barbara Hackett

    Our dinner was delicious, perfectly prepared and seasoned. We especially liked the salad with wild mushrooms and the cod dish. Wait staff are friendly and attentive. Our experience was significantly diminished by the pacing & wait for each course from start to end. It took 1-1/2 hours before our main course arrived. Given that the menu is prix fix with only one choice and the restaurant was less than half full we were perplexed by this. We enjoy having a leisurely meal but this was too slow. We will probably return less often because of it. Another issue is that the dessert course does not have a healthy option which would be nice given the prix fix price structure and the number of people with dietary restrictions.

    Wonderful restaurant with a chef determined menu. The food of the meal was very good. The wine pairings for the 4 courses were spot on. The price/value was a bit proud. This place is ideal for dining, however the courses were too drawn out and the wait staff could have been more present. When they were present they were very good.

    This is one of our go to restaurants and we have always enjoyed our food there immensely. Because of the lack of workers and kitchen help, they have changed their menu to a prefix format. Dinner this time was less tasty than usual. The Ceasar salad course lacked the tang of Ceasar dressing. The third course was the chowder, it was very bland, lacked salt but it did benefit from the garlic olive oil drizzle, albeit not enough. The dessert pie tart had a fabulously flaky crust and very tasty ice cream. I hope next time they'll have a better choice of courses. My Boulevardier was not as good as I've had elsewhere. I would still recommend the restaurant.

    The new four course dinner was great. I am a long time fan of J Devoti. Tonight reinforced my opinion. The wine pairing, which is very reasonably priced, was very good. The fettuccini with ricotta and mushrooms was wonderful; it had great flavors. The pork was well cooked with nuanced tastes. The chocolate tart was a great finish. Just superb!

    we were looking forward to the set menu and wine pairing. Unfortunately our service was fair at best and the wine pairings were very skimpy. We sat for 25 minutes before our first course and wine came out. The food was good, but the overall experience was just average.
