“The food was overall good but not great or life changing. We are big fans of Vicia and were hoping for the same complexity of flavors but did not find it in all the dishes here - only some of them.We ordered:Gougeres - cheese fondue and popovers. Fondue was good but the popovers were kind of doughy and dense.Beef tartare - fine, not great - the tartare was a bit flavorless and flat despite being served with a jusFrench onion soup - good! No complaints.Mussels - the star of the show, 5/5, some of the best mussels I’ve hadPain perdu - a carmelized dessert with toasted brioche and Clementine’s ice cream that was delicious.Special shout out to the mocktail Papillon. I don’t like when mocktails are just fruit juice but this one really had the complexity and slight bitterness of a cocktail.Overall we would come back but there are flavor profiles of some dishes that could be elevated to make this a 5/5 meal.“
“It was a busy night but our server was very attentive. The food was delicious and at the end of the meal the server brought my friend a birthday dessert. We didn't mention it was her birthday but she must have over heard us talking about. What a charming place.“
“I found Brasserie to be a stellar dining experience in the STL upscale food scene. It's an intimate dining experience that is perfect for dates or nights out with friends. The menu changes since last year are pleasant and I now feel there is a great variety of options spanning throughout traditional french cuisine and done unexpectedly well. The service was slightly slow for a party of two, but a busy Friday night rush combined with an otherwise exceptional time helps overlook the wait. There is an extensive wine and cocktails list, including an assortment of well-crafted non-alcoholic drinks. I definitely recommend checking this place out if looking for an elevated dining experience in STL.“
“Delightfully quiet restaurant in downtown Kirkwood with a nice menu including their wine list. Friendly service with a reasonable price point for a nice evening. Good spot for a meal with a couple of friends or a romantic evening with the one you love.“
“The Avenue came highly recommended and lived up to its reputation. I joined my siblings for lunch here. The staff was friendly and attentive. The lunch menu was expansive and delicious. I recommend the pear cocktail and manhattan winter. W enjoyed the French on Mon soup, beet salad, penne with mushrooms, schnitzel sandwich, and classic creme bruise.“
“The food was fantastic! My wife and I had the quiche Lorraine. The service was great! And they had some really cool guitar players playing there on Sunday morning, the whole experience was just fantastic!! I can't not recommend this place enough!!!!“
“"From the moment I stepped into The Crossing in Clayton, I knew I was in for a remarkable dining experience. The exceptional service began with Sunny, who skillfully handled my reservation, and continued with David's warm welcome at the door. My server, Joshua, was simply outstanding, ensuring that my visit was nothing short of perfect.What truly set this experience apart was the meticulous attention to dietary restrictions for both me and my guests. It's rare to find a restaurant that genuinely cares and accommodates with such grace.The meal was unforgettable, leaving me talking about it for weeks. But the cherry on top was a chance encounter with Joseph on the sidewalk days later. His genuine follow-up about my experience showcased a level of care and knowledge that is unparalleled in the industry.The Crossing in Clayton is not just a restaurant; it's an experience where the staff goes above and beyond, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking culinary excellence and exceptional service."“
