Pi is St. Louis’s first wonderful tasting deep dish pizza. They have several different menu choices to make everyone in your group happy.

Seriously, if it’s good enough for the President of the United States, everyone should give it a try. They’ve even won awards for the best St. Louis Style Pizza even though they don’t have that style on their menu, just thin crust. So if you are in the mood to try some great deep dish, or just want one of their amazing appetizers, go ahead and stop by today.

If you take a trip to St. Louis, or even if you’ve been a resident in the area, you need to stop by Fitz’s (yes the home of the root beer). This may be the only place where you can watch a vintage root beer bottling line while you eat! And that’s not all; the food is great too! Fitz’s has great hamburgers and other bar food. It’s a great place to bring the family so they can watch the bottling and it also is a great place for going out with friends as there is a bar upstairs that is open late. So come check out Fitz’s today!
St. Louis Pizza Haus
6602 University City
St. Louis, MO 63130
314-862-4287
As a local and family owned pizzeria in the Loop in University City, it’s possible that not many people have even heard of the Pizza Haus. They have a distinct flavor to their dough that makes it quite addictive. They even have several beer choices instead of the typical one or two. The pizzas are thin, but they are doughy on the inside, so it’s not like you’re eating a brick. This may be because of the brick oven they use to cook their pizzas. It’s a nice little pizza joint with huge windows overlooking Delmar. So go ahead and try one of St. Louis’s hidden pizzerias!
