Fantastic place for a full belly blowup dinner or just drinks and appetizers! We always have a great time and I can recommend anything on their large menu. Don't miss it! Also I think Tuesday night is trivia night and that was fun also.

We had a young man as our server and the service was horrible. Almost like we were completely forgotten. Was walking around to other tables serving them/ refilling drinks etc , never got our order taken after 30 min of sitting (it was not very busy at all) we finally just left.

I really like to see restaurants succeed so it's very hard to give this review but it's the truth. Horrible!!! Been here many times because the group we go with knows they can seat us anytime no problem. Food is all just heated up and brought out. Today the place smelt like sewage. No Joke! I could not even eat. Really wish this place could get it together. Remodel or at least clean up the place. Love how they have a firehouse theme but everything is poor.

Been to this place twice, and while I love the atmosphere and decor of this place the food leaves something to be desired. Both times they seemed a little heavy handed on the salt for the fries and the gravy. I do suggest getting their hot Italian sub as a wrap though because that alone was amazing. Also the service the 2nd time was on the slow side. It also didn't help the server kept forgetting who got what every time he brought something to the table.

The buffalo chicken wrap is delicious and they serve tall boys of twisted teas so it's enough for me to have one. The bartenders are always very friendly and I enjoy sitting at the bar with a drink chit chatting. Fun and friendly atmosphere.

Great food, great service. Just an honest good place to sit down and have a meal. Will normally have multiple sporting events on the tv's.

Not from the area but took my 92 year old mom here for dinner based on the reviews. I was so pleasantly surprised! Best lemon drop martini I've ever had. My husband ordered it for me while I was parking the car. It's not the venue for a good lemon drop martini. My mom also raved about her martini. My mom and I split a patty melt. She was in ecstasy. Thanks for a really good meal and a great memory with my mom.

Solid menu with good bar food, Family Feud trivia during the week is a good time. Their French fries and buffalo cauliflower wings are awesome. Service is usually pretty attentive and thorough. Nothing fancy but a great place to grab lunch or dinner in a casual setting.

New to the area and for the last 3 weeks we have been going to Firehouse Bar & Grill. Wednesday evening is Family Feud and they also have other game nights. Really looking forward to this being our hometown tavern, as I recently moved from NE Wisconsin and hometown taverns are a staple. The food here is excellent. However service is non existent. We ended up waiting 15 minutes (would have been longer as the a server was going to the table next to ours and I asked if she could send our server). After watching her go to several servers, she finally got someone to come to our table. We ordered two cocktails and an appetizer and after 35 minutes we found our drinks sitting on the bar. We unfortunately left before those drinks ever got to us. Recommend for take out only.

Party of 8. Arrived between 5:30-6:00. Food order taken quickly. Went downhill from there. Food took a long time to get. Six of us received our food at the same time. One received part of his order (salad & chili). His main dish came over half hour later. One lady didn't get her food until everyone else was done and carryout boxes were at the table. She only ordered a bowl of soup and a club sandwich. She was the first one to order in our group.Server kept blaming the kitchen. Tables came in after us, received their food and left. She was still waiting for her food. Her food should have been free. Heard the waiter say they would get 25% off. Had to ask another server for our bills. We were now sitting in a section completely empty. Three hours for dinner is ridiculous. Won't go back.

I usually dont like to jump to reviews as I have been managing restaurants and bars for the past 10 years but sometimes it's so out of hand I cant just let it slideI was there today with my family after funeral service for my mothers cousins memorial luncheon. All soft drinks were paid for but they didn't have ample servers available for the luncheon and the they were taking a very long time. My father approached the bar to get a beer (it was his one and only beer) where he was told to go back his section, I understand this as its the servers section. After the second time my father approached the bar after still not being served he was told by a busser "You better get back to your area!" Which then apparently it was escalating enough for the manager to come out and start exchanging with my father which within a few seconds my family and I started hearing threats of bodily harm asking my father if he wanted him to "take him outside himself" and he was "In for a world of hurt". After the exchange my parents began to leave (obviously) while the manager continued to yell obscenities at my father. If that wasnt enough, we called up there to get an explanation where yet again the managers temper went out of control and started yelling over the phone about it and ended the conversation before he hung up with with "well if it makes you feel better, put it in the Eulogy." I'm at a loss of words of how this business handles situations and communicates with patrons.

I love Dives and this St Louis Dive does not fail to disappoint. Service was a little slow it did look like they were a little understaffed with the bar tender having to service tables out in the bar area. But other than that food was good, drinks were good and not overpriced!
