El Molino del Sureste

The 37 Best Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri | Eater

"Brothers and business partners Alex and Jeff Henry are quietly doing great work at El Molino del Sureste, where they share the foods of the Yucatán. The double storefront space on South Kingshighway includes a mill, where the team grinds and nixtamilizes rare and unique heritage varieties of corn sourced from local growers. That depth and heart translate directly into the nostalgic, home-style dishes the Henrys loved as children, as well as Alex’s more cerebral dishes, like white chocolate mole draped over Japanese scallops. The treatment of seafood is gorgeous, and don’t miss the incredible conchinita pibil. El Molino del Sureste continually evolves while elegantly engaging with memory and tradition.Holly Fann" - Holly Fann
