“Been eating here for nearly 3p years.Always a great experience. The food and service are not like fast food at all. Very conveniently located in the small town of Cahokia, right in the center of the metro east area. Perfect spot to satisfy a fish crave.“
“This what you would call a typical Bar and Grill very comfortable all just recently redone everything is new and clean and nice staff is very friendly and fast foods not very expensive pretty good have a nice selection of beer and drinks to choose from nice place to have lunch with your friends and have a nice patio outside I don't think you will be“
“I have previously dined at Little Fox for dinner and drinks and I have always enjoyed it. Last weekend, I tried their brunch and it was just as good as their dinner menu. We tried multiple dishes, and they were all delightful. The Italian Benedict and Waffle & Lox were particularly amazing! The cocktails were amazing, as usual. The service was excellent, too. I highly recommend Little Fox.“
“This has been the most exceptional dining experience in a very long time. Me & my friend came in for a quick bite. We were greeted immediately & told to hang on a sec & it was literally a second. Mike the waiter was very attentive & took care to our almost every need. Chef’s kiss to Yellowbellly!“
“OMG!! Kim and Katie were phenomenal! The BEST biscuits and gravy I have EVER had. The chicken and waffles were AMAZING! And the skillet was outstanding!! My new go to place. Perfect all the way around. You are really missing out if you don't give them a try.!!“
Steak House • $$$
“The steak was amazing. My mother has never ordered a steak any way other than well-done and was floored by the medium well.The waiter was extremely knowledgeable and provided both a detailed history and flavor profile of select whiskeys/bourbons. This took the experience to a new level as we were able to apply that knowledge when tasting a flight.Amazing experience. Will definitely be back!“
“This is absolutely our favorite place for breakfast. The fresh bags are incredible and the gooey butter is out of this world. On a nice day we love sitting in their outside area. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for an authentic St Louis dining experience.“
“I come to this restaurant very frequently! I usually get a you pick two with the soup of the day and the St.Louis city salad. You can’t go wrong! And of course we finish off our meal with the worlds smallest ice cream sundae Vegetarian options: There is a daily vegetarian soup option“
“The owner Mike, was a delightful man and walked my boyfriend and I through his menu. We ended up sharing a full rack rib combo with a quarter pound of brisket and homemade applesauce topped with cinnamon. I've always been picky with BBQ because it's hard to find good ribs, but this place really was probably the best ribs I'd ever had. Not only were they "fall off the bone" but they were perfectly flavored with their apple butter BBQ glaze. They close early too sometimes due to selling out so make sure you go early!“
“Great service and regulars with burgers that blow away many of the more mainstream competitors. Needless to say it is a bar with all that comes with that but don't let that sway you from tasting the simple but complex burges, pizza and cheezsteaks they cook up.Relaxing, fun atmosphere that could lean a bit more on the DB Cooper briefcase carrying suited criminal of lore.“
“Great experience! Its like stepping back in time to the 1950 or even further back. Its amazing to think of the events this establishment has scene. One issue: the booths are the same size and structure that they were back then when Americans were considerably smaller. Its a VERY TIGHT FIT into the booths. Keep that in mind. Some guests may not fit but can sit outside across the street. Ill be back!“
“It’s been a while since I’ve eaten at Michael’s and honestly, I forgot what I was missing. Tonight’s dinner was incredible. We started off with toasted ravioli. They were delicious and the meat sauce was really flavorful. I ordered the filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection. I’m also a huge fan of the beer battered fries. The rest of our table ordered the gyro sandwich and gyro salad. Both were incredible-some of the best gyro meat I’ve ever had. The service was fast and friendly and I thought the prices were reasonable for the what had. I will definitely be back.“
“Five starts in every way! Adorable space, impeccable service, and delightful food and drink! I brought a friend and two older adults. We each had something different--biscuits and gravy, the stuffed French toast, and a burger. Everyone loved everything. We also had drinks. I love my gin and tonic and the black pepper and? Bloody Mary was delicious. I also took some sandwich cookies and some gooey butter cake home! Perfection! I can't wait to come back to the Blue Duck!“
“Everything about this meal was amazing. The food, the atmosphere, the drinks and the service were impeccable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone and will never forget this experience. Expensive but well worth the price for me. I am pregnant and they were incredibly accommodating and had a non alcoholic drink pairing option so I was able to still fully enjoy the entire experience.Dietary restrictions: I am pregnant so there are several things I cannot eat and they were able to accommodate all of them.“
“It was a pleasant experience they were so professional and the food was amazing and that instagram video brought me out and from the looks of things it brought a lot of people out that peach juice tho? this most definitely my new wing spot?????????“
“Wow! This place was soo cool. I found it via Google search for a good Cuban sandwich. I realized that I came here as a child when it was just a bar. The atmosphere is soo cool inside. The food is the best part though. The Cuban honestly did not impress me visually, but when I took a bite... oh my! The pork butt was soo good. My mom had the famous Picadilly fish. She wanted to try the Mayfair salad, but didn't want the whole salad so they made her a side salad with Mayfair dressing. They make this dressing in house and its amazing. I had a cup of Gumbo with my sandwich and it was soo good. I forgot to get a picture of it, but I have to believe it was homemade. I will definitely come back. You should come try it too.“
“The burgers and apps are very good. The fries are OK. The service was very friendly but a little slow. Plan for this to be a longer eating experience.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian patty could be subbed on all burgersDietary restrictions: Gluten free bun able to be subbed on all burgers.“
“I must have come on an off day, but my eggs Benedict was not good. The hollandaise was broken, and one of the eggs was undercooked. The sourdough bread was fantastic, and the cappuccino was delicious. The potatoes and salad on the side was fine. I would come back but get a different entree. The person next to me got pancakes and they looked delicious.“
“We opted for mostly drinks this time around, but still couldn't resist the chocolate tort. The cocktails are always exceptional! The Pho Sho and Garden Cosmo were the stars of the night! Service was impeccable, she was attentive without being overbearing!“
“By far me and my husband’s favorite place to get food hands down. We have eaten here many times and i have had just about everything on the menu at this point and I have not been disappointed with a single thing. By far my favorite thing here is the ribeye dinner meal for the price it’s wonderful and extremely filling. Being open late on weekends has come in clutch many times when it’s late and don’t want to cook for myself.“
“Last night , I spent hours searching for the best restaurants in St Louis and I stumbled upon this one. The reviews were amazing and let me tell you, the reviews were correct. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. We tried the bulgogi and rice bowl, the charred wings, and cheese fries. We also tried a peach shot, they didn’t taste strong but the results were. I normally don’t visit a restaurant more than once but I’ll be a repeat customer anytime that I’m in town. I also loved the customer service. The woman taking my order was very cheery and made me feel welcomed. Many of the customers are repeat customers that were also talkative and welcoming. I’ve been to hundreds of restaurants and this one is definitely in my top 5.“
“Overall, a great space near CWE to get sandwiches and burgers with friends. Good cocktails too!WAIT TIME: We had a dinner reservation for a larger party for 7:30 on a Saturday and we were seated immediately.FOOD: I ordered the classic burger and the guava lamp drink. The burger was very tasty and the fries are delicious! Would recommend. I heard from others in my party that the chicken sandwich was very tasty as well. The guava lamp drink was quite interesting looking, and it had decent taste. It was somewhat unique so only get if you’re ready to try some new flavor combos. It was very strong too.SERVICE: QR code menu was easy to access, and our server was attentive, often asking if we needed drink refills.AMBIANCE: The decor and layout works well, it’s a more modern look with lots of pretty lights and a bar. A great spot to come with a group of friends!PRICE: Dishes were roughly between $15-25, and drinks around $15. Pretty comparable prices to similar restaurants.“
“I could go on and on about how great the food is, but what really sets them apart is the service. Every person that I've run into appears to genuinely like working there. Just makes for an overall enjoyable experience and obvious that the owners treat them well. And the patrons benefit from that. So happy to have them in the neighborhood.“
“Sitting here soaking it in. Equal parts joint, hole in the wall, neighborhood icon. Clearly the locals know. You know?!My food was spectacular. Had the special. Smoked Corned Beef Ruben. PHENOMENAL! I'm a foodie at heart. Easily the best Ruben sandwich I've ever, and I mean EVER had. Accompanied by a proper pint and some of the yummiest Mac n Cheese. I really hope this is what heaven's like. Lol.Missus had the loaded pork sandwich. Solid. I tried it. Honestly though I could have replicated that elsewhere.My only regret is not being able to get all Jedi with my food capacity so I could have eaten/tried more. Incentive to come back I guess.I have a mileage rating I sometimes employ. I would say HogTown Smokehouse is a 75 miler. That is... if you're within 75 miles you be a fool to not stop by and enjoy.Say hi to Madison (Madi) our bartender while you're there.Cheers“
“Damn this place is fantastic. Date night, girls night, friends night...the atmosphere is sexy, the food great, and there's never been a drink that a single person we've been with wasn't completely wowed by. We love "Yellowbelly" on its own (especially for large groups/business lunches)- Lazy Tiger is a great addition to the place.“
“I had lunch a Beyond Sweet and I would highly recommend you stop by for a delicious meal. The owner, Dallas, was attentive to the patrons, the ambiance was nice, the staff is diverse, and the food was delicious. This is a different vibe for STL so go out and support this restaurant.“
“The Food was really good exceptional even better than I expected. The rice was fluffy not dry with bean sprouts onion green pepper and eggs I got special loaded with meat. The wings were on point and I will def be back. The service was fast and friendly and the food was served hot and fresh. It's a smallish front bout who cares the atmosphere was good and they are serious about their product. We will be back and we will bring friends“
“I’ll probably finish writing my novel because of Black Mountain. Perfect spot to relax and get some work done on a Sunday. It’s not a laptop spot per they don’t make it weird if it’s not too crowded. Great select of wines, great fries - feels like you’re in northern france or Belgium or even central west end at duffs or coffee cartel (iykyk)… extra bonus for the literal wood fire aromas soothing everyone’s soul“
“Austin helped us out this time, and I have to say he gave some of the best service we've ever got at this location. He was attentive, funny, kind, and overall awesome. I hope anyone who comes here gets him as your server. Keep up the phenomenal work my guy!“
“intimate, highly personalised. loved every moment, bistro crew is very attentive. people knew me as the one who came to every single one of the anat cohen quartetinho's march show with full smile (hi anat! + tal) because it is really lovely, quiet, and calm. highly recommend, please do see anyone you can here. the best jazz club in st louisVegetarian options: salad is such a banger“
“Wow! I can't brag about this place enough. A friend & I came for Happy Hour. The wings have a delicious sweet & spicy sauce, the brussel sprouts are cooked to perfection, the deviled eggs are so tasty, the burgers are chef's kiss & their drinks are legit. Our service was 10/10! The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming.“
“We tried the popcorn chicken fries sprouts and the cauliflower. Everything was well seasoned and tasted great. Just wish the sides of veggies were offered in a half size. The cauliflower was very very well seasoned. They had a live band setting up. Hudai was the name of the band. They sounded good ?“
“Hungarian Stew is Five Star! Dbl. cheeseburger large excellent taste! Crinkle fries done to perfection! Servicing the customer first has always been there since I been going. Mom & Pop (Micheal the owner) environment establishment that's making meals that are great tasting and good size portions. I'll keep coming back. Give them a try you won't be disappointed.“
“Was in St Louis for 4 days visiting a friend. We were trying to find a nice locals type place with a good selection of cocktails and good atmosphere. Thanks to Google we stumbled upon this place. It was nice just to sit the in the corner, have a drink, listen to quality music and play chess.“
“This is not exactly a place to go for a meal . It's a place to go for a beer and if you get hungry, they offer some yummy choices to go with your drink. Small with some tables and a bar, pool table, a neighborhood stop with that Smokey bar ambiance. Menus at the table, ordering at the bar. Burgers, hot dogs, and some surprise choices on menu like hummus, falafel, chopped salad. Portions small, prices fairly reasonable, service friendly. I enjoyed a small salad with a requested change of falafel instead of chicken. No problem and tastey with a hot honey squirt on top.If you're in the area , a nice stop for a beer and a nosh.“
“So very glad this gem was suggested to us by a local! And we were very lucky to hit a quieter time in the afternoon following a lovey Botanical Garden visit. Such a unique twist of offerings and most, if not vegetarian already, could be adjusted to vegan and GF choices. The food was excellent, the mocktails delicious! A gorgeous outdoor patio with a most artistic fire pit to enjoy the S’mores dessert. I will be back as I can’t wait to try another menu choice!“
“We came to St.Louis for a little birthday getaway and I had to check out this place and it did not disappoint! We started with dinner (with reservations) on a Saturday night. We found street parking nearby and walked a short distance. We were greeted by our server Antonia not long after we arrived. My partner ordered a NA cocktail made with NA spirits and I had the “plum blossom” cocktail- literally was such a great cocktail I wanted to savor every sip.For appetizers we got the krab rangoon and hush puppies with the amazing vegan ranch sauce (we asked for more). All of the food came out in a timely manner by the friendly servers. The flavors were perfectly balanced and sauces paired well with them. For dinner he got the “smoked maitake mushrooms” dish and I got the “mushroom ravioli with brussel sprouts.”My dish was served hot and the crispy brussel sprouts went well with the creamy and savory ravioli. My partner had his eyes closed and ate the slowest I’d ever seen him eat- he savored every bite (and he’s an omnivore!)For dessert we got the cinnamon roll bread pudding that was served with a cute birthday candle. It was served with a rich warm chocolate sauce. We scraped our plates clean! Our server Antonia was sweet, attentive, and personable with our experience. This place is one of my favorite restaurants I have ever been to and my (omnivore) partner said that was one of the best dinners he’s ever had in a long time.“
“Just a heads up they do have a sign that says they can search you before entering. We came in a Saturday night and it was busy! They had two customers celebrating their birthday so the bar decorated the entire place! There is a DJ in a booth. There is a stage to dance. Outside there is two covered seating areas, fire pits and tons of room for at least fifty people. The bartenders were very nice. They made us lemon drops which were delicious. The atmosphere is very neat, laid back and fun. They promote for 35 and up for the "grown and sexy." It is a club feel.“
“The staff was really nice and inviting. I love how they create their raviolis where you can see them. You get 4 for $10 and you can try two different flavors so the price isn’t bad at allThe ravioli are stuffed to the max. I got the cheese ravs and the jalapeño popper ravs. Cheese ravs were yummy maybe a bit more seasoning needed on inside. The poppers were good and had a nice spice. I also got the maple pecan gooey butter cake rav. It was awesome! But definitely have some water on the side because it is sweet!“
“Somehow I forgot to review SSC when I ate here a few months ago, which is weird because I tell everyone how great it was.The ambiance here is very nice and the service is fantastic. But of course the food is the driving force here. The beef tartare was an awesome and unique appetizer that you'll only see at a high end place. The broccoli salad was excellent and presented beautifully. The duck was by far the best I've ever had. Perfectly cooked on the inside with an amazing crunch and sauce on the outside. The chicken and pasta were also both great.I keep a list of restaurants in St Louis to try, from burger places to high end establishments. Sidney Street Cafe will remain at the top of that list and I'll be back for sure.“
“One of our favorite casual date night dinner spots. Creative and unique menu items, all taste great. Their liquor selection is pretty impressive as well. Patrick and his team do a great job, we will be back again... and again... and again.“
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Amazing"If I could give Polite Society 6 stars, I would! ? This has officially become my favorite spot in St. Louis for a romantic, memorable dinner with someone special. ? My girlfriend and I rarely return to the same restaurant, always eager to explore new flavors, but Polite Society left us craving more after our first visit. We simply had to come back - and let me tell you, it was just as incredible the second time around! ?Decor ?Stepping into Polite Society is like entering a whimsical world where the past and present collide in the most stunning way. ? The massive, multi-tiered bar immediately catches your eye, with its precariously stacked shelves bearing an impressive array of spirits. ? It's a sight that leaves you both in awe and slight trepidation, as if a gentle breeze might send it all tumbling down. ? Venture upstairs to the dining area, and you'll find yourself surrounded by a captivating blend of exposed brick, iconic wallpaper, and eclectic decor that transports you to a charming 19th-century home. ? The ambiance is truly one-of-a-kind, making Polite Society one of the most beautiful restaurants we've had the pleasure of dining in. ?Service ?♂️On both occasions, the service at Polite Society has been nothing short of fantastic. ? The staff is attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, always ready to offer recommendations and ensure that your dining experience is top-notch. ? They strike the perfect balance between being present when you need them and allowing you to enjoy your meal and conversation uninterrupted. ?Food ?️Now, let's talk about the real star of the show: the food! ? During our visits, there's always been at least one dish that leaves us utterly speechless. ? On our first visit, the cauliflower starter was a 10/10 - simply incredible! ? The steak with Brussels sprouts and fries was so mind-blowingly delicious that we almost ordered it again on our second visit. ?? Trust me, if you try this dish, you'll be tempted to stick with it forever!Our second visit (photos included!) began with a lovely broccolini dish that we thoroughly enjoyed. ? The mixed green salad that followed was a hit with me, although my girlfriend wasn't quite as enthusiastic. ?♂️ We concluded our meal with the Ragù Mafalda, which had great flavor but suffered from inconsistent temperature. ? Some bites were pleasantly warm, while others were a bit too cool for our liking. Despite this minor hiccup, the overall quality of the food at Polite Society is undeniable. ?In Retrospect ?Polite Society has solidified its place as our go-to spot for a romantic and memorable dinner in St. Louis. ? The enchanting atmosphere, impeccable service, and delectable cuisine create an experience that keeps us coming back for more.

“I had a great experience at this spot! The food was absolutely delicious and staff were friendly. The owner is a humble, down to earth guy. He shared with us the care and precision that goes into finding and processing the best quality ingredients for customers, which blew me away. I would definitely recommend checking them out!“
“Our first time here and it was great! Our server Genesis was sweet, bubbly, and attentive. The food was fantastic! Had burrata salad (off menu special), the Tiger rolls, and brisket dipper. Other than the au jus being a little too salty (which is prob normal, I don’t like things that are too salty) would eat it all again it was so good! And the servings are huge, we have enough leftovers for two more meals. The cocktails were also terrific- it’s hard to find a Vieux Carré outside the French Quarter but they make a good one! Sazarac was also delicious. Will be recommending this place to others and will definitely be back!“
“I rarely give 5 stars because there is always room for improvement.That being said, my entire experience was amazing! They remember what great service and a well-prepared meal mean.There was thought, time, and care taken with my food all for my eating experience.Very nicely done.For me personally you get 4¾ ?“
“Staff was professional and courteous, facilities are clean, well maintained, and inviting. Food was well made and reasonably priced. SawBoulderdash my first time there, and South Side Johnny the next night. Both bands were absolutely incredible! Without hesitation, I give 5-Stars!!!“
“I have been to Old Rock House a few times for EDM shows. It's very casual and fun. There are two floors which I love - you can be in the pit downstairs or hang upstairs for a more chill vibe and there is even some seating. There is also an outdoor area where you can get some air. They keep the temperature inside very balanced, though it gets hotter as the night goes on like most places. A bar on each floor which keeps the wait for a drink very short. They are really strict about the one drink per person rule (like if you're getting a drink for a friend, the friend has to be physically there too). I don't mind the rule but I saw others get a little grouchy about it. There is a $10 minimum. They have a great selection of liquor though nothing super fancy. Drink prices are normal and affordable for a music venue. The bartenders are super fun, especially the one named "Smash." I often see staff engaging with patrons and even dancing to the music, making the vibe really fun and welcoming. The crowds there, the times I have been there, are usually fun and polite albeit drunk. I have been offered drugs there a couple of times but no one was ever aggressive about it. There is staff everywhere so it feels safe. The crowd tends to be MESSY though - the STICKIEST floors! The bathrooms are a downside because there are only 2 stalls and the restroom is small overall. It's usually well stocked, though. The sound is pretty good for such a casual venue, too. I don't ever feel like it's muffled or too loud, the volume is balanced and it sounds good from both the bottom and the top floor. Lighting wise, they need more lasers! Parking can be a challenge at times (depending on when you get there) but there is a pretty big lot and a small area of street parking.“

“I would give this place 4.5 if that was an option, the food was delicious, the best thing in my opinion were the sides of the proteins, the carrots were probably the best ones I’ve had amazing, potatoes amazing and cauliflower very tasty. The meals as I said, 5/5!. The whole experience and service was maybe 3.5/5. The timing of the meal felt at first rush, we got the first course and we still had basically full cocktails, no much mention on the wines and pairings (we ended sharing a couple of glasses of wine we picked out the menu and turned out good). Despite my complaints I recommend this place, the food was good and with the changes coming with the a la carte menu, I’m excited to try other dishes.“
“I had a 3-course meal today starting with the Camembert appetizer, then the beef sirloin and the strawberry tartin for dessert, together with a glass of red wine. Everything was exquisite, my waiter Todd was extremely nice and delightful, and the atmosphere was perfect, with vibrant music to go along. I would definetely recommend to have an incredible lunch or brunch with an amazing view, topped with a visit to the museumDietary restrictions: Vegan options and gluten-free also“
“Hosted my daughter's 21st birthday. Plenty of room, all the food was excellent and everyone had a great time. Love the wings and the pizza for sure. They have slot machines but I didn't play any. It was a great place to host a large group.“
