The 37 Best Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri

"Akar is the most magnificent restaurant in St. Louis that too few have had the pleasure to visit. Chef and owner Bernie Lee roots his food in memories of the Malaysian cuisine he grew up eating — and then amps up the flavors by a power of 10 with additional spice, extra texture, and more finessed ingredient combinations. Don’t miss the gnocchi served in a Malaysian curry, or seasonal specials like recent dishes in which Lee coaxes unexpected flavors out of locally grown maitake mushrooms." - Holly Fann, Joel Crespo
