22 Best Steakhouses near Clayton

“The food and drinks are always delicious! Josh the bar waiter is always friendly and the atmosphere is so calming!“

“First time that we have ate at Ruth Chris and the service and atmosphere were excellent. The food was decent, but expected something that was spectacular. Also went for wife’s birthday and all she received was three necklaces of beads. And daughter’s salad was not very good.“

“Excellent service, fantastic food, and stylish (and still comfortable) decor. Good cocktails and wine. Nice temperature control too. Best steakhouse experience that I have had in some time. I cannot wait to come back again.“

“Our service was second to none!!! Samatha, Savannah Jolie and Tim!! Food was incredible. The whole atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our family loved the entire evening. Thank you!“

“As a steak lover, I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. During my brunch visit, I ordered the steak and eggs, which came with an array of accompaniments: eggs prepared to my liking, cheesy grits, a side of sausage gravy, and a choice of either toast or biscuits. I opted for egg whites and sourdough toast. The steak was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The grits were incredibly smooth and creamy, making them an absolute delight. If you're a fan of grits for breakfast or brunch, Carnivore has some of the best in St. Louis.“

“I got steak, and it was great.
My wife got pork chops, which was great. Twice baked potatoes were great. The salad was good. Toasted ravioli was just ok. Desert cheesecake was good. apple pie was good.
Wish they had booths, not a big fan of tables will for sure go back.

Kid-friendliness: I would say it's a place not to bring small kids that don't listen.“

“Overall the food is very good.
The only issue I had was the noise level.
There was a table of 5 people next to ours that were extremely loud. So loud that it was very difficult for us to talk.

Someone should have told them to consider the other two tables in this small room and lower their voices. The more they drank the louder they got.“

“It is my daughter’s 16th birthday today and we made a reservation at their sister restaurant Bristol’s awhile back. It’s her favorite place to go because of the fried cauliflower. We got a call today and they had a fire so they couldn’t open but graciously made us a reservation at j Gilbert’s. My son got sick so I had to stay home but they called me and said they made her the fried cauliflower that she loves at Bristol’s tonight at j Gilbert’s!! My family said everyone is being so nice and definitely made my daughters night!! Thank you so much for all you did to make her 16th so special!! You guys are amazing!! I can’t thank you enough!!!“

“Carmine’s is my favorite steakhouse in St. Louis. I have been a loyal customer at all of the Lombardo family restaurants my entire life and Carmine’s is simply the best. The atmosphere is welcoming and the food is always 5 stars, never disappoints. I recommend eating here before/after a downtown event or game because the location is prime and has easy access to the highway. I always use their valet parking to avoid traffic at other downtown parking places.“

“Food was done well and quickly. Nathan, our server, was friendly and efficient. Great experience.“

“Great food, great service and a really great atmosphere.“

“Food was wonderful. Most people raved over the chicken. The corn was my favorite side. Crab cakes 10/10. Seafood dip is not the texture I'd call a dip. More like a spread but it was good. Drinks very good as well. I spent like $120 with my meal and 2 drinks.“

“The place was amazing. Great food and wonderful service provided by Tom. It had ambiance, something missing in many places. This had the charm and finesse that is often missed in the new LOUD places. This place was packed but still quiet and the perfect setting for a romantic dinner. Not cheap but well worth the money.“

“we stay alot there. always friendly service and staff. our rooms are always clean..very nice motel..“

“Lunch special on Tuesday was great. Carol S. is a wonderful server.“

“Here in St Louis for awhile for work. Door dashed their 7oz sirloin tips w/bake potato and grilled onions ! It was soooo delicious, the sirloin tips were tender and were flavored very well as well as the grilled onions ! Must have, very good and received my food hot !“

“Excellent service, I had the Charcoal House Special, rare, with the mushroom sauce and blue cheese over the steak so it melted. If you're getting an expensive steak, get a fine wine to compliment it. I got the Jordan Cabernet, over $100 for the bottle but well worth it. (filet mignon)“

“Our Bone In Ribeyes were cooked to perfection, delicious and greatly priced. We saw two different tables complain to get free food. We have zero complaints.“

“Great food and prepared as I wanted it .“

“Excellent steak and good service.“

“🚨 IF THE RESTAURANT SEEMS EMPTY WHEN YOU WALK IN, PLEASE DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR AND STAY!!! Al’s has a limit of only 10 people max dining per night, and for good reason! My husband and I walked into the restaurant feeling like we had entered a time capsule. I see reviews talking about the musty smell, but all that I could think of when I walked in were nostalgic memories of my grandparents and a generation lost. This is a historic restaurant and landmark, and I loved every ounce of my time there.

Let’s start with the main thing: the food was unreal. It is the epitome of fine dining, and every last thing that we ordered was made to order. It was fresh, and there was not one item that did not scream perfection. The escargot was amazing, as well as the lobster bisque appetizer. I got the Chilean Seabass, and my husband got the fillet with coldwater lobster on top Oscar-style. WOW 🤩 we eat at a lot of fine dining restaurants, but we have never had an experience where there was not one thing that was either not cooked perfectly or that we didn’t instinctively love. But not here. You have to try it to believe it.

The service was unmatched. My husband and I were somewhat concerned as we first walked in because there was only one other table in there; but we soon realized that it was intentional by the owners and allowed us to have the most intimate dining experience of our lives. It’s almost as if we had rented out the restaurant for our entire meal, and it felt so personal and special. It truly can be summed up to say that it was an experience, not just a dinner.

Our servers had each been working there for over 40 years, as well as the chef. Gary and James (our servers) were excellent. The passion and the ownership that Gary oozed when speaking about the restaurant and every facet of the food and its history was palpable.

We pray people will give Al’s a chance - we truly will never forget our experience there, and we pray blessings over the owners and staff as they continue to preserve a piece of history with honor, integrity, and DELICIOUSNESS!“

“While visiting from out of town we decided to try out Longhorn Steakhouse and were pleasantly surprised. Our server De Janna was prompt and very nice. We had the chickens wings as apps - delicious! The steak, salmon chicken Parmesan and ribs were all very good. We would recommend“
