Bar Moro - Mediterranean restaurant in Clayton - 7610 Wydown Blvd, USA

This was an absolutely perfect experience! The head chef and sous chef were both so kind and excited to share their food: the quality, where the meat was from, the diets of the animals, and how the food was cooked. The food was phenomenal. The lamb was perfect! We had other things (names I cannot remember)

#stlouispescatarianapproved We had the best experience at Bar Moro! @stlouispescatarians on instagram. 🖤 The Restaurant - Black and clean chic, the chairs had fur throws draped over their back and the vibe was cozy! The bathroom had dried roses in small vases, a cute touch. 🖤 The Service was Amazing… See Heather immediately discussing dinner and drinks! 🖤 The Drinks - We ordered the Gin #4, the Blanco Spritz, the Kalimotxo and an off menu Bar Moro take on a #hottoddy - much appreciated! 🖤 The Tapas - We had the egg & caviar, salt cod croquettes and tuna toast…all fabulous! 🖤 The Salad - Tomato tartare folks with a to die for sauce. We asked for bread to sop it up! 🖤 The Entree - We ordered the pescado al pil pil with mushrooms and more heavenly sauce…we asked for MORE bread! 🖤 The dessert - The queso cheesecake…you better stop… it was a Basque style cheesecake so light and fluffy! Don’t walk..Run to this restaurant!

May have been an off night for this place. Appetizers were great but the carne entree was burnt to a crisp. They brought out a second plate which was prepared much better. We were then offered a complimentary dessert of some sort of bread with chocolate sauce and again the bread was burnt to a crisp. Kind of perplexing how poor the quality was.

Beautiful restaurant. It's very dark and there are candles sprinkled throughout and a crystal net. We sat at the bar which looks into the kitchen. It is a very small space and lots of hustle and bustle around you. There's a complimentary coat check. We split 5 small plates and shrimp as a main between two people and were very full, could've done without one or two small plates. But they were all delicious. They have a nice sherry and vermouth list, great gin cocktails and others. Excellent drinks and beautiful glassware. And excellent service.

The entire staff was amazing! Had to try the world’s most expensive cured meat, Iberian ham. Nutty, buttery flavor. Worth it! Christina recommended some great food pairings and brought out extra bread. Courtney recommended an exemplary full bodied red wine. They have a wonderful assortment of canned seafood that pairs well with alcohol. Sturgeon was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Complete with a delicious garlic/mushroom sauce. I went as a walk in for a seat at the bar a bit after 4 pm. 10/10 would go again!

My husband and I have dined here several times this Fall and had excellent experiences each time. Each course was delicious (especially the lamb entree, endive salad, oysters from Maine, and the Basque cheesecake). I especially enjoy the Smoke & Choke specialty cocktail and a Madeira to pair with the cheesecake. Lovely atmosphere and attentive but not intrusive service from each waiter we have had. We will definitely be back.

I practically never give 5 star reviews, but Moro surprised me so much I will be coming back for more. We had pepper dip, mushrooms, shrimp special, followed by tuna main special. All dishes were absolutely amazing explosions of flavor. Well balanced on both flavors and textures. The tuna dish scored lower on my grid, while tuna itself was perfectly cooked, the sauce it came with resonated way too much with the pepper dip. The server explained it was different peppers and technique, but flavor wise for me it just didn’t marry well with tuna.

Lovely place, fun seating outside, sexy interior. Stopped in on a whim on a Sunday evening. Had amazing 3 course paella for 1 option... green olives, salad and delicious paella. Great wine selections from Spain, had many favorites on their wine list. A great new hot spot whether date night or dining with friends or even solo. Wait staff knew I had a business call and were observant to know when I was ready for that next course or a second glass of wine. A perfect evening and high recommend. I will be back often.
