Olive & Oak
Whether you're a die-hard supporter or a first-time visitor, stadium eats are part of the matchday magic. But with so many options, how do you know what’s worth your hard-earned money?
At Pitchside Plates, we make it easy. Our goal is to help families and fans score a feast on a budget, one bite at a time.
In this review, we checked out one of CITYPARK’s most buzzed-about food stands: Olive & Oak. Known for bringing fine-dining roots to casual eats, they offer items that stand out from the typical stadium fare.
🎯 What We Tried:
🧀 Toasted Ravioli – a St. Louis classic with a crispy golden shell
🍟 Cheese Steak Fries – loaded with melty cheese and shaved steak
🍔 Smashburger – not on every menu board, but we found it (after a bit of a hunt)
If you've ever wandered the concourse debating between options, this review is for you.
🍽️ Olive & Oak Food Review: Flavor, Value, Shareability
Every dish we try at CITYPARK gets rated across three categories:
✅ Flavor – Is it something you'd crave again after the match?
✅ Value – Does the taste match the price, especially for families or groups?
✅ Shareability – Is it something you can split with friends or kids and still feel satisfied?
Here’s a quick teaser:
The toasted ravioli had the crunch we wanted, but we’ll tell you whether the dipping sauce held up.
The cheese steak fries were a forkful of flavor—but do they justify the cost?
And the smashburger… well, we had to track it down, and there’s a reason it’s the a hidden gem in the stadium.
