For modern Italian cuisine, Edera Italian Eatery has been satisfying customers in St. Louis’ Central West End neighborhood since the restaurant opened last October in the space previously occupied by Scape American Bistro (which shuttered in April 2019).

The eatery, which offers carryout and delivery via online ordering, comes from a partnership between chef Mike Randolph and the Koplar family, who also owned Scape. Edera, Italian for “ivy,” refers to the restaurant’s courtyard, which sports green vines during warmer seasons.
