New American Restaurants near Columbia, IL

“Came here with my husband and friends for a bags tournament. We had a great time and met a lot of cool people from the area. The waitresses and bartenders were really nice and nice to look at. Sky was the main girl that took our drink orders while inside and she was super sweet and conversational! Great place for good drinks and vibes.“

“So glad we found this gem in STL while we were in town today. There was a wait, which we expected, but we quickly found a spot at the bar. Service was great and the food was wonderful. Coffee was perfect. The strawberry French toast is to die for. My husband had the pastrami omelette and loved it. Was nice to meet and chat with the owner, Joshua, who was super friendly. Great breakfast spot! Can’t wait to go back next time we are in town!“

“Quiche was amazing served with mixed greens“

“Ate at Cafe Smoke Shack recently. The food was fantastic. Service was excellent and our waiter was very attentive. Giant portions, well prepared & we were all extremely pleased with our meal. "Stan, Matt & Marlowe were charming and cordial to all. The owner (Matt/Chef) is one of the nicest and most hospitable folks you'll ever want to meet. Truly cares about his customers. Stay clear of Bill... Why you ask? He was a smug, rude & a disingenuous individual. Brought in six (6) people & spent over $300.00 with no other customers dining that day. He acted like he did us a favor. All of the other employees were wonderful.“

“Best Gyro I have found in st.louis.“

“I have driven past this place daily for a long time! I am disappointed in myself for waiting this long to give it a try. A true hidden gem in Oakville’s back yard. A fantastic whiskey selection and the pork chop was to die for.We will be back asap!“

“This is one of the family's many restaurants around STL, but this place is the Daddy of the all. The other locations try to replicate this restaurant but have failed.

This place is the entire package, it is laid back, great food (best wing in the STL bar none), nice layout, corner supports bar. Everyone is super friendly, plenty of TV's, food is excellent, the atmosphere is electric, games for the kids, decently priced, cold drinks, outdoor patio if it's decent out - it's all that and a bag of chips.“

“Great place. It's like Cheers with the regulars.“

“great food and staff were amazing“

“You get 5 stars because of the daytime/night time bartender Ashley. Seems like she's the reason people come in this place that badly needs an identity. I stopped by late afternoon on a Tuesday and the bar was full with people that seemed like they have known her for years. Pretty impressive for a bar and grill that lingers on the Lemay border. Apparently they are under new management and he must be a retired Wal-Mart greeter because he hobbles around looking like he is ready to finish the meals people don't eat. Had the happy hour tacos which were unbeatable. Apparently they are the long time creation of a 20 year employee. I'll be back because in a day where service at a bar is hit or miss, this lady was on point with a bunch of high maintenance old men who play Keno, do shots and constantly complain about the TVs. Couldn't imagine someone else putting up with that.“
