Drove by on our way into town to our hotel. Noticed the mural outside and then the décor inside drew me in. Had brunch here on Saturday and I'm so happy that the hype didn't just come from the interior design. The food was SO GOOD!!! I had the crab cake benedict which was suggested by our bartender, Mary. As someone from the Eastern Mid-Atlantic who has had a lot of crab cakes, I can honestly tell you that these were amazing! The seasoning and the overall manner in which these crab cakes were made makes me think the owner/chef came from the East Coast! My boyfriend had the brisket hash and he inhaled it so quickly that he didn't even save me a bite ? Came here for brunch and decided not to do the bottomless drinks because you could only choose one drink the entire 1.5 hours. Makes sense but as a visitor who will not be coming back anytime soon, a little variety would be more appealing.
As previously stated, the restaurant is really cute inside. There's a free arcade on the second floor. The restaurant's got a girly, cowgirl feel to it. The menu has a lot of Southern favorites with a twist! Menu is available via QR code on the wooden coasters. Prices were cheap compared to the rest of the city. Portions were large but doable. Flavors were on point! And staff was especially welcoming and attentive! We sat at the bar, per usual.
They've only been open for a week but I definitely feel like their popularity will blow up soon! So glad that we caught them before they're too busy!!!

I rarely write bad reviews and I loved The Diver, however my fiancé and I went in there today and it was empty maybe 3 tables inside and 2 outside. We sat in there for over 15 minutes and not even a glass of water was offered to us. How much longer until we would have been served. We also waited to be seated it wasn’t like we just sat ourselves. Such a shame.

Had reservations for 4 pm. Door is locked. I looked in and someone is telling me no. They didn’t come to the door or anything. Just waved me off. Very unprofessional.

From the cocktails to the barbecue, this is my new favorite place in River North. As someone who lived in STL, I know barbecue and this competes.

Had a reservation and upon walking in the music was so insanely loud, I had to almost yell to to say my name to the host/worker-It was pretty empty, no one outside and maybe an 8 top inside and a person at the bar-However the table of 8 was so loud it sounded like 20 people, screaming and yelling-We did not want to be inside with blaring music and screaming people so we thought about sitting outside but we just decided to leave-Not a great vibe and no need to have music blaring that loud + screaming people-There was no way we would have been able to talk with the noise inside, plus it was just annoying-

Really really fun place! They have a great great happy hour ($1 wings that are actually tasty) and delicious margaritas. Would definitely go again!
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED!!!HAD RESERVATIONS FOR A BIRTHDAY AND EVEN GOT A CONFIRMATION MESSAGE FOR THE RESERVATION, SHOW UP AND THERE ARE CHAINS ON THE DOOR!! So embarrassing!The restaurant next door was nice enough to accommodate our party with extending their bottomless mimosas as we arrived at its end

We’ve gone to this place when it was the diver & enjoyed that experience. We went again today & the service & atmosphere was not the same. The server came up to us & said “hi, how can I help you” no introduction at all! I didn’t know I was at a drive thru. I asked about their brunch & he shot my question down by saying “it’s 330 brunch is over”. I was like ok! Is happy hour still happy happening from 3-7? He shot that down again & said nope. No alternatives or specials were mentioned. We were sat before 330 & we were patiently waiting for our server to attend us. There is nothing on the menu that specified what days for what specials. If your servers are going to be unwelcoming at least put the information in the menu so they’re not annoyed by our questions! Don’t waste your time at this place.

Don’t miss it! We had the pulled pork they were out of Brisket but let me tell you 10/10! Drinks were good we were there on Friday night don’t remember our servers name but she was awesome! We came in from Florida and I told myself the last thing I wanted to do is go to a country themed bar estaurant because we have plenty of those here but I am so glad we went and will definitely be back!
