A family-run business with a long history, this restaurant and hall combines dedicated service with a classic setting. It is an ideal location for couples wishing to celebrate in old-world style with the conveniences of a modern, full-service event space.
The Rose of the Hill is a St.Louis institution whose doors have welcomed hundreds of hungry diners for over a century. In its past life, as the storied Old Ruggeri’s, the banquet hall entertained guests such as Frank Sinatra with its famed culinary offerings. This tradition of warm welcomes, top-notch service, and delicious food continues with the Favazzas, who took over the premises in the early 2000s. A business with family and community at its heart, the establishment is named for the favorite flower of Mrs. Favazza Snr. With one eye on the past and one looking to the future, they have remodeled the building whilst restoring much of its former glory. Guests will be charmed by its original features, such as its dark wood bar and restored cloakroom. Its large dining hall can accommodate a sizable gathering under its vintage chandeliers, flanked by stone columns. Guests can also relax in the venue’s outdoor area, whose rugged, exposed red-brick walls and pizza oven create a relaxed, city vibe. Couples need not worry about the weather thanks to its floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing guests to enjoy the beautiful sun whilst being sheltered from the elements.
The Rose of the Hill’s staff prides itself on customer service, which is head and shoulders above the rest. Couples can work with the venue’s wedding coordinator to organize every last detail of the big day, from decor to the floor plan. Favazza’s catering team will keep tummies from rumbling with their delectable dishes of classic Italian cuisine. The party can dine in a number of styles, including buffet service, a seated dinner, and a cocktail reception. Guests can raise a glass to the happy couple with the venue’s extensive bar service. This expert team of bartenders and mixologists offers an exquisite selection of wines and beers, as well as a champagne toast.

Quentin answered immediately any questions we had during the planning process and offered his help and expertise along the way. Additionally, the bar service and wait staff were top-notch, the decor was beautiful, and Rose Of The Hill provided us with a spacious venue and ample parking for our large group. We, with 100% confidence, recommend Rose Of The Hill!

As the bride, I didn't even have to think about my own decorations for the venue. The staff did great every step of the way. At the end of the night, the staff had everything cleaned and packaged up for us to take home, they wrapped the top of our cake and helped gather any gifts. I can't recommended Rose of the Hill enough!

Choosing Rose of the Hill for our reception venue was arguably the best choice we made in our wedding planning. Due to COVID19, we worked with Quentin and the Favazza's team over t...
he course of 2 years through all the ups and downs of postponing, rescheduling, and coming up with alternative plans. What I appreciated from the start was Quentin's open and honest communication. Unlike other venues we toured, he did not feed us with misinformation or fill our minds with unrealistic ideas for our budget. He was realistic with what he had and what he could do to make our day great. We had a small COVID friendly wedding in 2020 and had our reception this year close to our 1 year anniversary. It was truly the best and most stress free reception ever. Everything was taken care of and the venue was gorgeous for our event. Our guests raved about how charming of a venue this was and that it was the best wedding food they had ever had (what else would you expect from Favazza's??). Quentin and his staff went above and beyond taking care of all of us and my husband and I had one of the most enjoyable nights of our lives surrounded by friends and family. I have not a single regret about this venue and recommend it without reservation.

We cannot offer enough praise and gratitude to Rose of the Hill! We hosted our July 10th wedding there and a terrible storm knocked out their power. Quentin and his team worked so...
hard that I (the bride) barely even NOTICED. We are so grateful to them for their hard work.
Quentin also has a great sense of humor which makes what may be an otherwise stressful event (planning a reception) easy-schmeazy-lemon-peazy.
Rose of the Hill is a perfect St. Louis location and our guests loved the cozy atmosphere and delicious food. Do yourself a favor and book Rose of the Hill for your St. Louis wedding -- you will not be disappointed!

This review is a few weeks over due, but we want to give a HUGE thank you to Quinten Dunk, John Favazza and all of the incredible staff of Rose of the Hill. We could not have asked...
for a more perfect reception. We continue to receive so many compliments from guests about the beautiful and intimate space, incredible food, and overall fantastic service. Quentin went above and beyond to make sure the entire reception ran smoothly and timely. When we were looking for reception venues, we wanted a venue that was very inclusive in terms of tables, decor, food, liquor, etc - and Rose of the Hill checked all of our boxes. All of the decorating is included in your price as well as food/bar service. Our parents and Grandparents were treated with incredible VIP service. We wish we could relive our reception at Rose of the Hill experience all over again and we cannot wait to make frequent trips to Favazza’s restaurant because the food is absolutely incredible!

Quentin was so fantastic the day of the wedding. He kept everything moving smoothly and on time. He really is amazing. The food and overall experience was just outstanding. Our family and friends are still talking about how they loved the food and how much fun they had at the event. We can't recommend them enough!

ting Quintin made sure our minds were at ease. We had chair covers for the wedding party and gold bows for the guests. The bows were tied off to the side and looked so elegant! We had the back wall draped and lit. Beautiful! Quintin even put out gold fabric on the dessert table to make it pretty. We started with passed apps and champange to set the mood and boy did it. Quintin made sure the bride, groom ,and both sets of parents wanted for nothing that night. I walsked into the room that evening and was blown away with how beautiful it all looked. The food was delicious, the staff friendly, and it was just a perfect night. I cannot think of anything I would change. Thank you for such a magical and amazing night for our daughter!!

Rose of the Hill is amazing! I wish I could say everything I wanted in just one sentence but truly it is the experience that matters the most. My family has known this business for...
years, my sister had her reception at Rose of the Hill just last year before my wedding. I loved it so much that I knew I wanted my reception there of course.
First off, they are a package deal of a location. They cater, service staff, decorate, bar package, and a wedding coordinator. Plus much more! They can accommodate to certain dietary needs such as gluten free meals. We had someone that needed a gluten free meal and they were able to not only make a total gluten free meal, but have it still be close to the food we were serving. On Wedding day the wedding coordinator made sure our guest who needed the gluten free meal was served the correct meal.
The venue is such a good size, from having a small reception to a large reception! There is a plenty of room to dance on their dance floor! The venue is a bought out restaurant that the company uses to host receptions specifically. So they have parking free of charge, and the bar is off to the side from the main dance floor and eating area, so those family members who just want to hang out at the bar can do so.
The service is amazing! Quentin, he is the main wedding coordinator and does an amazing job from prep to the day of! He makes sure the entire reception runs according to schedule and helps along the way but behind the scene. I swear there were times I felt like he was reading my mind when I was in need of him or something, cause he was already right there ready to help! Trust me when going with this location for your wedding, you will not be disappointed.
They decorate, set up, provide a cake knife, they serve cake!, bird cage for cards, tables for escort cards, table linens, chair covers for head table, vases for bouquets of bridal party, great restrooms, included bar, and much more. Honestly this venue is a dream! Not going with this company is a mistake. I will always recommend Rose of the Hill to my friends getting married.

We cannot recommend Rose of the Hill enough! The value and service they provided blew us away. I couldn't believe how many things were included in the package we chose! We had pass...
ed appetizers, a champagne greeting, bows on the backs of the chairs and draped dance floor lighting. Plus, they took care of the flowers for the reception, which was a huge money saver!
The space is great. Our guests had plenty of room to dance and socialize. It was elegant and beautiful and exactly how I imagined. The bar area is so fun!
The food was amazing. - all of our guests raved about it. They were so helpful with their suggestions on what to try.
Quentin is amazing! He made everything so so easy for us. He was ready and waiting for us when our bus pulled up. He called and texted me to run things by me to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. He is extremely organized, calm and professional. He also has a great sense of humor, which was much appreciated during wedding planning! He delivered drinks to us and to our parents and made sure our every need was taken care of. He literally carried our plates to our table for us and made sure we had enough. Everything was so smooth, and we didn't have a single problem all night. It was all thanks to Quentin and his team.
I want everyone I know to have their reception here because I would love to go back! If you are looking for a wedding venue in St. Louis, Rose of the Hill is the absolute perfect place!

My husband and I had a fantastic experience planning and celebrating our marriage at Rose of the Hill. Although we kept it pretty simple, I truly believe that if there was anything...
under the sun we could have wanted, Quentin and John would have made it happen for us.
In the price of our package, Rose of the Hill included flower arrangements on the bar and in the hall entrance, and well as flowers on the tables. They included linens, cutlery, plates and glassware too. That made for an even simpler planning experience knowing that that was going to be taken care of for us. They allow you to bring in your own dessert, which we did, so the only outside vendor we needed to bring in was the DJ. The coat room attendant was wonderful, there is ample surface lot parking, and we heard wonderful things about the charming bartender, who throughout the night seemed to remember everyone's drink of choice.
The evening of the reception, Quentin made sure that everything was absolutely seamless. Cocktails at our table were always full and he kept us updated on the time to make sure that we were following the schedule we had shared with him. (But was open to making changes on the fly if we had wanted more time to mingle, do our first dance later in the evening, etc.) He made sure my mom always had a full glass of wine, and he even went as far as making plates for our older guests so they didn't have to walk to the buffet. THAT is service. Seeing someone take notice of my family and their needs without me mentioning it to him really spoke volumes of the Favazza family and type of service they are committed to providing for their customers.
The food, as every other review has mentioned, was phenomenal. We served toasted raviolis and eggplant manicotti as passed appetizer as guests were arriving. For dinner, we served Sicilian Chicken, Italian Beef, Green Beans, Roasted Potatoes, and Penne ala Rosa. The garlic bread, salad and cheese & relish platters were all included in our package. Absolutely everything was delicious.
I can't recommend Rose of the Hill enough. You will not be disappointed in the service you receive.

My Son-In-Law chose Favazza's to host our rehearsal dinner for our family and friends since their wedding and reception were in the city. We had lunch one afternoon to try out the ...
menu. We were hooked. Even folks who live in St. Louis and the surrounding area do not always get the chance to really experience our city's Italian restaurants. Favazza's was the perfect choice! Our guests had 3 entrees to choose from, salad, open bar, dessert and a fabulous atmosphere on the patio for our evening! The service (Hi Pam and Lisa) was outstanding! Late arriving guests (due to flight problems) were accommodated as well as gluten and nut-free guests! I cannot recommend your venue enough and yes, we'll be back!

We had our rehearsal dinner at Favazza's. When we called to make a reservation, we were already aware that they didn't take them on the weekends (our rehearsal was on a Friday nigh...
t), but thought we'd give it a shot anyway. They were actually willing to put us on a call ahead list so that we would still have priority when we got there. As soon as we all arrived, we were seated immediately! The food was delicious, the service was fantastic (our server, Eric, had a great personality and was very accommodating), and we couldn't have been happier! We'll definitely be back, even just for a random meal here and there!

We just had our wedding reception at Rose of the Hill on June 23, 2018, and could NOT be happier with our choice!
First of all, Quentin Dunk is amazing to work with. He's extremel...
y helpful throughout the entire planning process, but the best part is how great he is on the actually day of your wedding. Quentin checked in with my husband and I SO many times to make sure we were getting everything we needed, he took care of our family and friends incredibly, and if there was a job to be done, Quentin jumped right in there to do it.
THE FOOD. Oh my goodness.... DE-LICIOUS. We decided to do a Family Style dinner and it was an absolute hit. Everyone commented on how quickly the food came out and how nice it was to be able to sit down while still getting to pick and choose what they wanted on their plate. And everyone said that the Penne with creamy tomato sausage and sage was their favorite =)
We would have our reception there all over again. DEFINITELY recommend.

Our wedding reception at Rose of the Hill in November 2017 could not have been a better! Quentin and his staff were a delight to work with and get to know. Quentin does not play a...
ny games and always had an answer for us right away when we would send him an email about reception details. His ability to work with our other vendors and allow us to add some special touches to our reception was a pleasant surprise. The overall experience of booking the facility and planning the reception was without a doubt one of the easiest parts of planning our wedding thanks to the team at Rose of the Hill. On the day of our wedding, Quentin and his staff did a fantastic job of catering to not only my husband and I, but also to our parents and grandparents which really allowed them to fully enjoy themselves. It was so nice to walk into our reception and know that everything was under control. We were able to actually enjoy the reception and didn't have to worry about a thing. Our guests are still raving about the food! To Quentin and everyone at Rose of the Hill - thank you again for making our wedding so memorable!

We booked Rose of the Hill by Favazza's for our daughter's wedding reception in June of 2017. Her original choice burned down and we were in a panic to find a reception venue . R...
ose of the Hill is beautiful. Quentin worked with us to plan every detail and meet our requests and budget. The food was FANTASTIC. All our guests showered us with complements. The credit goes to Quentin and his staff. The entire experience with Rose of the Hill was pleasant, professional, and we could not have found a better venue. We highly recommend Rose of the Hill.

We were glad we could step in after the tragic mishap at the other venue. I hear they are...

We just had our daughter and son-in-law's wedding reception at Rose of the Hill this past Saturday night. We were extremely satisfied with our experience here. John and Quentin h...
elped us throughout the process from our first booking the date months ago, until the reception Saturday night. Quentin was extremely attentive and helpful all during the actual reception Saturday night, and was ready to help with anything to make sure we were happy. We had many guests come up to us during, and after the reception to tell us how nice a time they had and how great the food was. The food items are the same served at Favazza's restaurant, and all prepared with excellence and good taste. We couldn't have had a better time, and will be sure to recommend Rose of the Hill to all of our friends.

rovided both before and during the wedding that me, as a bride, had nothing to worry about as the big day came, and then while the reception was taking place. If I ever had to plan another wedding I would only consider hosting it there! Flawless

The Rose was excellent: The venue itself has such character, from the old, massive wooden bar, to the paintings on the walls, the wooden chairs, to the roses they put up around th...
e rooms. The coordinator, Quentin, was extremely helpful leading up the wedding helping us to incorporate parts that were not initially on our menu of options. He also did an excellent job day-of, ensuring everything went right. I hope I have the opportunity to come back as a guest sometime, the place was wonderful, the evening was wonderful, and I have no complaints, which says a lot.

We had our wedding on 9/16/17 at Rose of the Hill. Quentin and his staff waited on me, my husband, and the rest of our party hand-and-foot. My glass and plate were never empty!
...
I would definitely recommend the Family-Style so that toasts and speeches can be going on while the courses are being served to your guests. Everything went smoothly and darn near perfectly...
Make sure your DJ or band has a good sound system because The Rose is big and spread out-- so that everyone can hear the music as well as any announcements.
I recommend getting the second bar for beer/wine so that the main bar is not congested. We did, and it worked out great!
I also recommend a photo booth because The Rose had a perfect spot up front near the bar for one!
The Rose actually ran out of my preferred beer, and someone ran out immediately to get more. I knew nothing about it until weeks later. That's service!!
The only recommendation for The Rose itself is to have their wait staff (during family-style receptions) make sure all guests know they can ask for more food! Some knew, and some didn't! With that said, though, there was always wait staff around to help with anything and everything...
I feel like I am rambling, so I will end with the fact that Quentin is a blunt, to-the-point, fast talker, and he is absolutely AMAZING! He cares about every detail you care about, makes sure you are having a great time no matter what, and he assures that everything and everyone is running smoothly and doing their jobs... We had the best wedding ever!

several of our wedding guests tell me that the food was the best they had ever had at a wedding! The room was absolutely perfect and the staff was incredibly professional and courteous. I would not have wanted to leave all the little details in anyone's hands other than Quentin's! He made sure we were happy and that our drinks were full all evening! Wish I could relive our wedding reception over again. Would recommend Rose of the Hill to anyone looking for an elegant venue, excellent food, and professional service for their wedding or other event!

We had our reception for 250 people in March of 2017. The event went flawlessly. The manager, Quentin, was great to work with. The staff was friendly, folks never had to wait long ...
for a drink. We had a plated dinner and it was served quickly and the food was great! Lots of compliments.
We had a live band and were able to dance the night away. All the guests commented on how good the food was and how beautiful the venue was !
Rose of the Hill is not the cheapest, but they are by far the best VALUE in the city of ST. Louis. Phenomenal food, great customer service, and we had a great night! Thank you, Rose of the Hill.

n was very professional and made planning easy. Me and my family were very impressed by the service the day of the wedding. I was not feeling well at the beginning of the reception and Quentin went out of his way to make sure I was okay and even went to Favazzas to get whatever I needed. We have received many compliments on our wedding, especially the venue and food. If you want a beautiful, unique venue with excellent service and food, go with Rose of the Hill.
