It truly pains me to write this because this place has so much potential to be amazing. However, don’t let the charming atmosphere fool you—the staff will eventually ruin the experience.
Here’s what happened: We were enjoying a lovely evening until it became obvious that the servers were rushing us out to make room for others waiting. What’s especially frustrating is that we were one of the few groups actually spending money on drinks, rather than just eating and enjoying the “free” music.
The most disappointing moment came when one of the older staff members (later we found out was the owner) removed my wife’s half-full glass of wine from the table while she was in the restroom. When I politely asked for a refill, her response was shockingly rude. Hoping for some clarity, we asked another server if there was an issue, and she admitted she was overwhelmed. For someone in the service industry, this level of unprofessionalism was incredibly disheartening.
Overall, it felt like they had no interest in creating a welcoming environment or encouraging repeat customers. It’s such a shame because this place could easily become a staple in the area. Unfortunately, we’ll have to chalk this up as yet another example of a poorly managed St. Louis restaurant. A truly disappointing experience.

Small little neighborhood bar and grill in a very residential area off Clayton Rd west of Clarkson. Does not look like a bar and grill from the outside since they are next to a preschool. The food was pretty good but not great. I had a burger that was ok. The place is very small with only about 10 tables inside. It feels cozy but also a bit cramped. They have live music several nights a week which is nice but they automatically put a $5 charge per person on your bill so be prepared for that. The music was ok but I think a bit loud for the small space.

The food is delicious and the service is great. I love thy they have live music and support local musicians. The place is small so be prepared to wait if you go in a weekend.
