Bocci - St. Louis ( Dining / Italian ). Located at 16 North Central Avenue, Saint Louis, 1 mile from the center of University City. Bocci Bar is the newest addition to the vibrant Clayton dining scene. Created by Frank Schmitz, owner of the popular Barcelona Tapas just down the street, Bocci Bar is a new take on northern Italian cuisine. Far from the checkered table cloth heaping pasta bowl Italian restaurant, Bocci Bar captures the rustic yet modern feel of a neighborhood Italian gathering spot. From the floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the sidewalk café to the warm wood tones that envelope all sides of the cozy interior, Bocci Bar is relaxed and rustic…the perfect spot to enjoy a meal among friends. Our menu is designed to encourage tasting and sharing. So whether you’re meeting a colleague for lunch or enjoying a leisurely dinner with friends, we invite you to experience the new Bocci Bar! boccibar.com

The Melting Pot Restaurant ( Dining / Other ). Located at 6683 Delmar in the The Loop. The Melting Pot is a fine-dining restaurant unlike any other in University City, Missouri. Without sidestepping our classy appeal, we embrace a casual comfort that is ideal for any occasion. Romantic dates don’t have to overcome a stiff setting, while group outings can loosen up without losing valuable time. Restaurants that pull this off are hard to come by, and the odds are even slimmer for places with tasty food. We hope we become your favorite restaurant, because we offer both. Our chocolate fondue is a sweet smell that is hard to ignore once you step inside our font door, though we recommend trying something from our other three courses, which include artisan breads and bubbling cheese fondue, freshly made salads with handcrafted dressings, and meats and seafood cooked in your choice of cooking styles and sauces. www.meltingpot.com
