Nick Elenas Pizzeria - Saint Louis

Fantastic food! However, I can't understand why you're not open for lunch... it really puzzles me.

The food was definitely a 5-star experience, as was the atmosphere. Our server was excellent as well. However, I had an issue with the pocket doors that separate the two halves of the restaurant. They were located behind our table, and the servers frequently passed through them. Unfortunately, it was a particularly cold night, and the draft from those doors made it quite uncomfortable. I'm usually not someone who gets cold easily, but I found myself getting up 11 times to shut the doors. When I mentioned this to our server, she replied that they needed to go back there. I explained that while I understood they had to pass through, the real issue was my having to get up so many times to close the doors. She didn’t offer an apology, which was disappointing. It wasn’t like we were lingering; there were five of us, and we ordered 4 extra-large pizzas, 3 salads, garlic cheese bread, and dessert, spending about $25 each. We settled our bill and left, which didn’t ruin our evening, but we hope that in the future, the staff will be more mindful of the need to keep those doors closed when it’s freezing outside.

I ordered four large pizzas for a family of six and there were plenty of leftovers. I requested a large salad when I placed my pickup order, but they accidentally gave me a small one. No problem, though—they made it right by telling us to keep the small salad as well! The pizzas had a fantastic blend of delicious sauce, the perfect amount of cheese, and fresh toppings. The crust was just right—not too thin and not too thick!

Nope. The pizza is ordinary; Pizza Hut ordinary. I got a New York style pizza with prosciutto, sausage, and pepperoni. The sauce had good flavor, but the pizza as a whole did not stand out visually or in taste, and definitely not enough to justify the price of $24 for an 11-inch. The breaded mushrooms were okay. The breading had good taste, but I think the moisture of the mushrooms ruined the texture on the inside of the bread ball. Slimy. Well priced beers. The restaurant is run-down and has a dirty feel.

Just had some pizza my aunt brought over and this is way better than Imos, my new go to pizza spot
