Esca, part of the Bengelina Hospitality Group, brings a taste of the coastal Mediterranean to St. Louis, MO. Drawing inspiration from the French and Italian Riviera, Esca offers a menu featuring "The Cuisine of the Sun": rustic, fresh, and deeply flavored dishes prepared with olive oil and cooked over charcoal and wood.

Complementing the exquisite cuisine is a bar boasting a wide selection of classical cocktails and a vast array of aperitifs, amari, aromatized wines, and anisettes. The wine list, overseen by Bengelina's own Luciano Racca, is carefully curated to enhance the dining experience.

Situated in St. Louis' Delmar Maker's District, Esca provides a Mediterranean culinary journey in a vibrant and inviting setting. Guests can immerse themselves in the flavors and aromas of the region without leaving the Midwest.
