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).“

They had almost everything you could imagine to eat. I sat down at the kitchen table and was eating away. Truly a bigger on the inside moment,“

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

“We ordered a deluxe pizza and it was by far the best pizza I have ever eaten. You could taste the quality in every ingredient. The only bad thing is... I am now ruined for eating only your pizza ?.“

“ate there for the first time today. had a steakhouse burger , fries. the burger said to have come with Carmelized onions and steak sauce. i couldnt taste the sauce over the over powering saltiness of onion rings they put on it. the "caramelized" onions were breaded like the fried pickel appetizer we had. I couldn't even eat but a few bites. had a root beer float which was good. now the service was great and she had a great demeanor. I don't believe I'll return. I've added a photo of what Carmelized onions are supposed to look like..they are not supposed to be breaded...“

“This is my new favorite place!!!! Holly, the head chef, is absolutely amazing. I had a stroke and it effected my hand dexterity, so when she seen me struggling with my first order of avocado toast, she didn’t hesitate and made me a new one AND cut it up for me 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻. The food and service was excellent!!! I’ll definitely be back“

“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.“

“Excellent service! Delicious food! Best chicken quesadilla I ever had!! Beautiful building! It looks antique. Gorgeous! Everyone was pleasant.

Parking: There is plenty of parking to a point. They were busy that night, so I had a little trouble finding a spot at first, but finally got one on the very end on the right. 🙂

Kid-friendliness: I wouldn't bring a child to a Bar & Grill because it's more of an adult atmosphere. I'd find a babysitter. My personal opinion.

Wheelchair accessibility: I didn't pay much attention, but I'm sure someone with a wheelchair could get in there. I think there was a ramp that leads inside in front.“

“Billy ,Terry and staff did an amazing job today with 2 benefits going at the same time. Place was packed. Service and food was on point. Thank you“

“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“

It was a full house , our waitress Grace was busting butt and still gave us great service. The staff was really nice.

“I have lived in Arnold for 12 years now and have never tried That’sa Nice’a Pizza but have always heard great things. Today I decided I had to try it and I am sold. So good! I was very surprised when the guy who delivered it said that they had a little trouble getting one of the pizzas out of the oven. A small area tore a bit so they sent me an extra nine inch pizza to compensate. They absolutely didn’t need to do that but was such a sweet thing to do. Will be ordering from here from now on. Not only delicious pizza but also amazing service. ❤️“
