    By all means enjoy the four course meal option. Gave the four of us a lovely assortment and plenty of food. our waiter was a delight and my personal favorite food was the beet salad. By the time I got to dessert I couldn’t finish the chocolate torte which was delicious, too! The only downside was that the sidewalk and entryways were ice packed and treacherous🥶

    Acero is a reliable delight. My wife and I have been many times for special occasions and for the first time brought all of our children to celebrate together. The bill adds up, but the value is there. Service is attentive but not intrusive. The food is delicious. The atmosphere is special.

    What a great time! Greeted by Keith as soon as I sat down. After my guest had arrived, he reviewed the day's specials, and also the tasting menu options, as that is what we wanted. He made some great recommendations. The seafood Crudo was outstanding, as was the Tagliatelli with mushrooms. My Walleye was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Our wine needed to be decanted, and Jake handled those responsibilities perfectly. Keith checked in on us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed, even after we were finished with our meal. All in all, it was a delightful 4+ hour meal!!! Cudos to Keith and Jake!!!

    Incredible dining experience. The food was perfection, with the raviolo, walleye, crudo and chocolate torte all beyond compare. Definitely recommend the wine pairing, as it enhances the experience significantly. Jake's recommendations and attention to detail, along with a stellar background music playlist made for an unbelievable evening to remember!

    Food is delicious and unique while the Italian wine selection is outstanding and one of a kind in this area. This is now my favorite restaurant in all of the St. Louis area.
