Our Story

The culinary offerings at Casa Don Alfonso tell the story of traditions passed down for generations in the family homes of Southern Italy. These timeless recipes come from a magical place, ripe with culture and beauty. We are proud to offer St. Louis a casual approach to Mediterranean cuisine, and remain inspired by the Iaccarino family's hospitality and the charm of the Sorrento Coast.
