“Can’t believe it took so long to find this place! The pizza and pasta had an amazing combination of flavors! The drinks were perfect and generous pours. The service with Rosie Zoe and Brooklyn exemplary. The bar and atmosphere are so very cool. COME SEE WHAT YOU ARE MISSING OUT ON! Sorry, we forgot photos of the food!“

“The Crossing Restaurant did a remarkable job the other evening when we dined there. We had impeccable service and outstanding food. I loved being able to do the four course meal with some of the specials. It was wonderful to see the dining room full in this well-established restaurant in the heart of Clayton. I remember being wowwed when I first dined at The Crossing 25 years ago and it is still just as fabulous! We cannot wait to return.“

“My fiancé booked me a special dinner for my 30th birthday. Big ups to our server Greg! He did a phenomenal job. He was friendly, attentive, and very funny. He's definitely the type of server you want to go back to. We also enjoyed our food and drinks. We will be back! We loved every minute of our experience.Thank you again, Greg and the Capital Grille staff!“

“The food is absolutely delicious! The burgers are huge and delicious, and quite well cooked. The barbecue sauce was tangy and delicious with the Gateway Burger. I was looking forward to trying the onion rings, but ended up not having room after the burger!

Some reviews have mentioned the service - the servers are not overenthusiastic in their greetings as other restaurants, but the service is damn good. They have a very subtle style of attentiveness, not always asking if you need something but noticing when you do, keeping an eye on you. They check in at the exact points - when the food hits the table, after two bites, and when your plate is just about done. There were two servers today and they were both multitasking and on top of all their tables, and their demeanor just happens to be more casual comfort. Definitely wouldn’t dock them any service points. If you do tend to prefer more enthusiastic service, it might not be the best match, but theirs is still a service style that will get you what you need.

I’m not currently living in STL, but will definitely be returning next time I’m in the city!“

“Great service and the food is amazing“

“I think this may be my new favorite restaurant in St. Louis. The ambience alone is absolutely beautiful, but combine that with amazing food and impeccable service and you have a winner. Best oysters I’ve ever had, and those Gruyère puffs are insanely good. I had the Bavette steak, and my husband had the chicken cordon bleu… Incredible! You cannot miss out on the drinks; the cocktails are so good and the spritz hour is a great deal. Highly recommend!“

“The All American Cheese Burger, was awesome“

“I had a bunch of other things on my mind when I stopped in with the wife for lunch. Consequently, my photo game is weak on this one. This may be more of a 3.5 than a 4-star but I'll round up based on service.

Chicken satay was a miss.

L1 (can't believe I didn't get a pic) for lunch. The dish was the lunch portion of pad ga paow. It's on the menu as a spicy dish. I was asked how spicy and said 'medium plus a little' and loved the amount of heat.

Tofu didn't overpower the dish and I appreciated the smaller bite size. Carrots brought some sweetness to the dish. Green peppers were most left on the plate. Green beans added a little crunch. White rice cut the heat a little and the dish came together in a great way. I walked in looking for something I haven't tried and this dish answered the mail. Really good!

The sauce was the boss!

They ran out of lemons for the drinking water and solved that with a little container of lemon juice.“
