What to know
Pavilion was born from Chef Nick Bognar’s desire to present a personal narrative through tasting menus — a place where his Thai roots inform classic sushi technique honed over nearly two decades. Nestled behind Sado on The Hill, the restaurant strips dining down to ritual and intimacy: limited seats, a fixed progression, and careful storytelling through every course. It matters because it brings a distinct, regionally rooted voice to St. Louis’s dining scene, offering an omakase that tastes like memory and meticulous craft.
