We have some amazing restaurants in our city, and we love highlighting new culinary gems at LOUtoday. But there have also been so many great local restaurants that have closed over the years (Decca, we miss you) — and sometimes, we get a little hankering for a meal from a place that no longer exists. Sigh.

This got us thinking about the local restaurants from yesteryear that make our readers feel that same nostalgia — the spots that would be your go-to choices for dining out if they were still around.

Personally, if we had a time machine, we’d head straight to Toast on Market for the The King and never look back.

OK, your turn. Which City restaurant or meal would you give anything to eat one more time? Whether they closed years ago or just last week, we want to hear from you. Let us know and we may feature you in an upcoming newsletter.
