50 Best American Restaurants near Barnhart

“I've been going here since I was a little kid and their food is still unmatched. Old timey, diner-style restaurant with friendly service, to-die-for ice cream, and plenty of lovely memories. Also has great pricing and a claw machine I've won two stuffed animals from, which is in my opinion a good record. Highly reccommend mozzarella sticks, fries, and waffle cone sundae (mint chip is superior).“

“Had this on the want to go list for some time. Finally made it.
Neat little restaurant that’s a bit of a hidden gem.
Small location. Quiet with a great seasonal menu. Wait staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable of the menu.
We ordered wine and entrees. The serving size was appropriate and not too much.
We asked for a special dessert. The waitress worked with the kitchen to accommodate our request. It was wonderful. (See pics for ice cream. Caramel and scotch)
Would definitely recommend!!!“

“Our visit in arnold was great. I didn't remember to take pictures until halfway through our meal. We had no wait to be seated. Our waitress was great, very attentive to the right amount. We always enjoy eating at Applebee's!
The atmosphere is always relaxed. You can tell they are working with an older restaurant, but it's pretty clean every time we've visited.
The last few times, they haven't had Cucumber for the Salads which is a downside for me but it wont keep me from coming back.“

Might be known as a biker bar but delivers in other areas.“

“1st time there had to try their St Louis Style Pizza. It was very good. Great service.“

“I won’t lie, I work here, BUT I’ve been a HUGE fan of Taytros since they were in their first location. Food, drinks, music, and atmosphere have always been great! I still have yet to grow tired of eating here. The made in-house ranch, Asian glaze, homemade croutons, Cajun bbq shrimp, Kerris jalapeño poppin chicken with sugar snap peas or Angry Italian sandwich & fries are some of my top favorites. Paired with a hurricane, lous watermelon sunrise, or lavender lemon drop martini 🤌🏻💋“

“A great well established American sports Grill and Bar. Food is very good and generous portions! The onion rings are a “must” try! The pork tenderloin sandwich is another one of my favorites. Service was excellent. Established in 1991 I believe, it has carved its place into the Oakville community.“

“My favorite place to grab a bite to eat or drink after my Mt. Bike ride at Cliff Cave .“

“Great pinball bar!! The selection of pinball games is excellent. Bartender was a little to boisterous, but still nice. We went on a Saturday night, it was dead... let me tell you why. Karaoke, and it was HORRIBLE. Not that having karaoke is horrible, it's the few people that were there that couldn't sing. You could tell it was a few regulars and that's what is keeping more people from coming. We left because it was so bad. Will definitely be back though when no karaoke is going on“

“The food is always good, Ice cold drinks n love going to listen to the live music!!! They always have awesome live 🎶 Every where you look there’s Fun entertainment for everyone 🤩 Never disappointed!!!“

It was a full house , our waitress Grace was busting butt and still gave us great service. The staff was really nice. We asked for a table , then changed our minds and wanted a booth instead, and the staff still was really nice about it. I give 5 stars.“

“1 of very few places that still sells chicken gizzards & livers. Fan of Lee's (location not important) Famous Fried Chicken for over 50 years. Best chicken fried steak, bar none, I have ever eaten.
With so many more fried chicken chains open today, I'm so glad Lee's is 1 of 4 chicken places in existence from my childhood. All 4 still offer better tasting chicken than the new chains.

Parking: All locations. Closest to me is Arnold. Worth the 1-1/2 hr drive. Wish St. Francois Co. would open a few.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“We had such a great time at Webers thanks to Stephanie! She was super friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome the whole visit. We ordered a Busch Light (which was ice cold and delicious), toasted ravs, and a quesadilla, and everything was fantastic! Stephanie’s awesome service really made the experience stand out. Definitely recommend asking for her when you stop in!“
