“The food is amazing. Weve tried nearly everything on the menu and it has yet to disappoint. The weekly specials that are off menu have also been really good. The small patio typically houses a small band. The inside is nice and quiet. The wait staff is really knowledgeable and very kind. The food is made to order. The steak has been consistently cooked to temp. Highly recommend. The new chef is great“

“Just drove from St.Charles MO with my husband and daughter today to get out of the house. Saw reviews for Bluff City Grill, and we decided to stop for lunch. The crab stew was amazingly delicious 😋 I had the stinger salad, and the hand breaded chicken strips on the salad were delicious too. We had buffalo chicken dip, and mozzarella sticks for appetizers-- both super delicious too. I had a glass of the house sangria which was super good too. Excellent service also. Definitely going back next time we're out this way. Highly recommend this restaurant for it's food, service, and atmosphere.“
