Great food but the service was really slow. That may have been because it was a party of 7. Nonetheless, we sat down at 7:40ish and didn't finish until almost 11. That said the service interactions were fine when they did happen. I would absolutely go back. The ribeye was perfect cooked!

I love this place. A relaxing atmosphere, warm and friendly staff. They have a great brunch and buscuits with pimento cheese is delicious. This visit was for lunch, I had a chicken sandwich with steak fries and my friend had a fried bologna sandwich with a side salad. Both sandwiches were really good. After asking for the check our waiter brought us a tablespoon serving of rainbow sherbet. I'm not sure what prompted this, another reason why I love this place.

We’ve eaten outside at St. Anselm’s several times and it’s been a great experience. The service is attentive but not obtrusive. The kitchen is known for its steak, but we opted for fish. Both the dorade and the trout were nicely prepared and presented. The kitchen really shines in its imaginative use of vegetables. The grilled okra is tender and tasty but somewhat overwhelmed by the spicy dip. The dorade is served with pickled cherry tomatoes that are a great complement to the fish. The trout is accompanied by a fennel cabbage slaw that elevates the dish. I was a little disappointed that the draft beers are offered only in a 9.5 ounce size but full size cost. Overall the menu leans toward the indulgent so be prepared if you normally eat light. The private patio stalls outside are a great alternative if you want to avoid the crowded dining room.

St. Anselm totally nailed it. Those pimento-cheese biscuits? Unreal. I followed them up with a perfectly cooked New York strip, bacon-fried mashed potatoes, and creamy spinach, and everything hit the spot. The vibe is laid-back but buzzing, the staff is super friendly, and it just feels like the kind of place you want to linger at with good food and a glass of wine. Already dreaming about my next visit. Hopping more different food on the menu .

Such a great place. Food was phenomenal, service was excellent, definitely will return!
Honestly we had party of 3, the food was so salty, inedible rosemary potatoes. Too much rosemary makes for a perfume taste in any food, The salmon was an inch and a quarter thick! Never seen that in my life! The chocolate Martines were meh! Deviled eggs and mushrooms were very good! Won’t be back!
