“I have enjoyed this place immensely! I have a mutual friend who works as a lead bartender at an another establishment close by. She introduced me to Andi who seems to really lead the staff and the customers when you walk in! Andi is always gracious and welcoming and always makes a point of saying hello and wanting to know what I need or my group needs! I love this place and I appreciate how welcoming Andi is!! Thanks Hive!! ?“
“WOW!! This place has really upgraded their food menu. Just had some of the best Corned beef, cabbage, and red potatoes in memory. All scratch made. They are introducing a new menu with many new options that are in-house made. Some of the best "fat" hot wings I've tasted. Real chicken tenders made using fresh chicken breasts. In-House made onion rings with a killer batter. Yes, this is a smoking environment. So it's not for everyone. But, if you like a sports bar environment, with upscale food and great service, at very reasonable prices, give it a try.“
“Loved the atmosphere and the staff. Music was playing the entire time. A great place to play pool. Plenty of tables and great prices. Only negative was the cigarette smoke smell was heavy and I’m not a smoker. 4 stars instead of 5 because Smoking is allowed inside and was difficult for my non smoker lungs to stomach. If you are a smoker then this is your place.“
“James, our server, made it a fun evening. The food as always, was perfect. We had the caprese with lobster salad to start. Light and tasty. Then we had the 12oz Australian Wagyu, cooked to perfection and just about as good as Japanese Wagyu for a lot less. Served sliced and placed in the middle. We love Wagyu and this is a special dish. We were thrilled they had it tonight. We also had the pasta special, spinach tagliatelle with shrimp and scallops and a cheesy delicious sauce with bacon, almost like a carbonara. Not ultra creamy but super good. Big shrimp and scallops. Finally we had the Truffle Mac and Cheese which is addicting and awesome. We brought some home for our grand daughter. Napoli 2 is a great restaurant.“
“So glad this place exists in St. Charles! The frozen cocktails are delicious and strong. Narwhal's has the best drinks out of all the frozen cocktail places I have been to which includes places in Colorado, Florida, and other places in Missouri. The 40oz fishbowl is totally worth it! You keep the fishbowl and if you bring it back then you get $5 off refills. The staff is knowledgeable about the ingredients in the drinks like what type of alcohol is in them, etc. They also let you taste flavors before ordering them! Overall Narwhal's is a fantastic place to get drinks!“
“Wow! This place was soo cool. I found it via Google search for a good Cuban sandwich. I realized that I came here as a child when it was just a bar. The atmosphere is soo cool inside. The food is the best part though. The Cuban honestly did not impress me visually, but when I took a bite... oh my! The pork butt was soo good. My mom had the famous Picadilly fish. She wanted to try the Mayfair salad, but didn't want the whole salad so they made her a side salad with Mayfair dressing. They make this dressing in house and its amazing. I had a cup of Gumbo with my sandwich and it was soo good. I forgot to get a picture of it, but I have to believe it was homemade. I will definitely come back. You should come try it too.“
“It’s been a while since I’ve eaten at Michael’s and honestly, I forgot what I was missing. Tonight’s dinner was incredible. We started off with toasted ravioli. They were delicious and the meat sauce was really flavorful. I ordered the filet mignon and it was cooked to perfection. I’m also a huge fan of the beer battered fries. The rest of our table ordered the gyro sandwich and gyro salad. Both were incredible-some of the best gyro meat I’ve ever had. The service was fast and friendly and I thought the prices were reasonable for the what had. I will definitely be back.“
“Can be a little loud when they are busy. Food is good and you get lots, won't leave hungry.Parking: Depending on how busy they are, sometimes parking is not great. Restaurant shares parking with a convenience type store/sandwich shop, and I believe a laundromat around the corner.“
“The sandwich was really good and there was a lot of it. It cost a bit more than normal but there was a lot of it. The waitress was very nice and we got our food fast, even though the place was very busy. In short it was well worth the visit.“
“I would put myself in debt to eat this food, It's so incredible the head chef is brilliant, and the staff from the front of the house to the back make the entire experience a joy. the wild boar and polenta is writing home about worthy, and the tirimisu makes me emotional... the pizza is literally the only pizza in st louis worth eating and I'm from Chicago so I feel like my opinion is extra valid lol. there are a ton of "fancy restaurants" in St. Louis but table cloths and wine selection don't mean crap when the menu of a reasonably priced pizza joint makes your food look like McDonald's by comparison.“
“The breweries cellar serving up some of the best beers made in the world. With an ever changing draft list and an extensive bottle list from the cellar on top of the private and personal experience the small but unique space creates, you are bound to have a great experience. The staff is great and incredibly knowledgeable.In addition my favorite experiences are the multiple special events they have a year serving up their more limited beers.“
“The Pageant in Delmar is a music venue so good, it's like Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory for music lovers. You step inside, and suddenly you're in a world where every note is golden, every joke hits like a punchline ninja, and every seat feels like it was custom made for your booty. It's the kind of place where you can't help but tap your feet, nod your head, and occasionally wonder if you accidentally stumbled into Narnia instead of a concert hall. And the comedy nights? It's like they've distilled pure hilarity and bottled it up for your enjoyment. Plus, the staff? They're like the Avengers of hospitality, ready to save the day with a smile and maybe a quick dab of emergency glitter if needed. In short, if happiness had a headquarters, it'd be The Pageant.“
“Best bar in Saint Louis.The concept is great, only quality Lagers, in a bar with a welcoming, family atmosphere.What more ?The Lagers that were offered, from local and international breweries, were all great, but we especially remembered the milk pours, the spaghetti cocktail and the Malort shots.The manager is super nice too, and we meet great people there.“
“Had a wonderful time with wonderful food. The service was great. This was a gift from my daughter and her husband for my retirement. It is a fancier, pricier place, but who doesn’t want to do that once in a while for a special evening out. Go and enjoy a relaxed night out on the town.“
“I ordered tonight for carry out and there was a small hiccup (no biggie) with our order they called right away to fix it. Picked up our meatball sub, a Naples pizza, a create your own, and garlic bread. This food was delicious, I’ve never had such a amazing white pizza (no red sauce) in my life. The meatballs were so tender and my picky kid ate all but one! The garlic cheese bread didn’t last long here it’s as good as home made (maybe better). We will definitely return and recommend. I hope next time we can dine it, from what I saw they have a pretty large dining room that can accommodate a nice crowd. The employees were incredibly friendly and warm. Loved the entire experience!“
“I’m giving everything five stars because the food and beer were good and the staff excellent, save one a-hole manager. Basically we were there on a busy running club night, and as a family of 4 having just arrived to St. Louis looking for dinner, we popped into Heavy Riff to give it a try. We waited in line with everyone else at the “front counter” and a lovely female bartender waited on us and let us know we could grab a table and then she’d help us on the side of the bar where it’d be less hectic for us to order (since we had kids in tow). This was very thoughtful and accommodating of her in the masses of young runners. We met her there and she offered great advice on what to order for kids (spice levels) and as a vegetarian. We were about halfway through ordering when Rick (I got his name later since he ruined the vibe of our experience) butted in and told her she was supposed to be taking orders at the front counter not side bar (about 4 feet away) and said she had to get back there. By his command she had to leave us hanging to wait for the “proper” bartender to take our order which was a few minutes later. He didn’t offer to help. Meanwhile as the staff was slammed with orders this Rick jerk just stood in the back and reined over the staff. He didn’t lift a finger. Even later when I went to settle the tab at the bar he stood at his throne position in the back scrolling, messaging on his phone. (Super unprofessional) I was standing right next to him and he didn’t ask if he could help me. I sure hope Rick isn’t the owner because if he is I would hope employees would quit. Rather, to the owner, it is time to find yourself a new manager as Rick is useless and frankly ruined the good energy we had going. I felt for the staff that had to deal with his power trip. Though we are staying fairly close by, we won’t be back.“
“Tried this restaurant yesterday. Had a reservation for Valentine’s Day. The food was really good and the waiter was nice. The restaurant wasn’t really crowded when we got there and we still had to wait. The table we got was a high top by the bar, would have preferred a booth or other table in the dining area but all in all it was a good experience. I’d go back for another steak, it was delicious.Dietary restrictions: Peanut free facilityParking: Lots of spots“
“Great food, great portions, great atmosphere!!!! It’s so romantic!!!! I feel like I’m in Italy!!! ??Vegetarian options: There are many options!Parking: There is parking everywhere and even in the garage!Kid-friendliness: My kids love Italian!!! This place is awesome!!!!Wheelchair accessibility: Great place for wheel chairs as well.“
“Stopped in on a whim Friday Night because I see the place off Page Extension all the time. Glad I did, the atmosphere of this place fits my style. Chill, with nice friendly staff and patrons. Annie and Eve behind the bar are so cool. Tried a pickle shot for the first time in my life, awesome, who knew! I think I will move right down the street so I can be closer. See you soon.“
“Our first time here and it was great! Our server Genesis was sweet, bubbly, and attentive. The food was fantastic! Had burrata salad (off menu special), the Tiger rolls, and brisket dipper. Other than the au jus being a little too salty (which is prob normal, I don’t like things that are too salty) would eat it all again it was so good! And the servings are huge, we have enough leftovers for two more meals. The cocktails were also terrific- it’s hard to find a Vieux Carré outside the French Quarter but they make a good one! Sazarac was also delicious. Will be recommending this place to others and will definitely be back!“
“This place is one of my favorite places! They are welcoming and inviting! Steak is always seasoned to perfection. We have been celebrating our life accomplishments at this location for over 15 years and we are never disappointed! Reservations are a must and great for a romantic ambiance, special birthday dinner, and other occasions.“
“Had lunch today. Chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes and green beans as my sides for a lunch special. $ 9.95 The chicken fried steak was cooked to perfection and green Breana were so good best even. The service was fast and friendly. Great neighborhood bar.“
“Very nondescript bar on McKelvey road across the street from Maryland Heights Community Center. This was formerly The Drinking Horn and they have preformed wonders inside/ It's clean , roomy with new tables plenty of TVs for sports viewing and the best bartenders around especially Ronnie! They have Trivia at 7:30 on Thursday evenings and Karaoke on Friday They pour a respectable drink , offer pizza for purchase or you can bring in outside food. If you're in the area give them a try you might just like it.“
“Stan's is a fun little dive bar with a following of regulars during the week and karaoke/party folks on the weekend. Karaoke is often loud and jam packed, so choose your nights wisely if that's not what you're looking for. Otherwise they have cheap drinks, pool, basic snacks (chips etc.) to help soak up the booze or you can bring in real food. Can also be a chill spot to grab a drink in the early afternoon and catch a game and you'll often find Stan hanging out at one of the high tops with his people. As others have mentioned the bathroom set up is strange..2 toilets close together, separated by a wall with no stall doors - so if you want privacy double check that you've locked the door to the bathroom itself. There's also a cool little laundromat down the street, so if you time it right..well, you get the idea!!!“
“Wow ! What a great place from the food to the decor as soon as you step just inside the door it screams Mexico. I used their event room all day for meetings. Liz and Dave took great care of me all day. Dave was my right hand man, I will be back.“
“Came on with no reservation and was sat right away. Amelia gave us wonderful and quick service but I feel she went above and beyond making multiple suggestions that made our experience even better. The staff was friendly and helpful, overall we enjoyed for a quick last minute weekday dinner!“
“We stayed at the Cheshire hotel and were fortunate to have Basso on the premises! We met a friend here the first night of our stay. The restaurant is in the basement. The atmosphere was inviting with gas lit wall lights, a center bar with booths and high tops. Autumn was a wonderful server. She was so pleasant and informative. We really enjoyed having her as our server. Happy hour is from 4 to 6. We tried the fried meatballs, which were great. The lemon ravioli and the shrimp pasta dish were both delicious. Prices were reasonable. When you dine, the food taste and quality are top priority, but when the food is phenomenal and the service and atmosphere are just as good, it makes the experience memorable. We ended up returning on our second night! Julie was our server and we really enjoyed her, too. She was helpful and interested in our satisfaction! We tried the Brussel sprouts, an heirloom salad with delicious bread. Our entrees were the butcher steak and the burger. The steak was wood fired and super tender! The burger was delicious. The fries and shishito peppers were very good. We highly recommend this hidden gem and thank Autumn and Julie for making our stay in St. Louis so memorable! Oh, try the Secret Door specialty drink, a next level Old Fashioned“
“This place is sooo good!!! The flavor is on point every time and never misses. I have been here months apart and my food was well put together every time, which is rare in my opinion for restaurants. A lot of taco places are bland and tasteless and overly Americanized. This place is well versed in toppings, homemade salsa, and flavor. The owner is very sweet and personable. You have to try the fresh homemade juices.“
“I've lived in STL for over 40yrs and last night was my first time here. I've clearly been deprived all that time. Fun, quirky, cozy place with great service and ample room to spread out and have fun. As others have said, great dive bar, hidden gem, etc. In the case of this place, it's both the journey (to get there) AND the destination (a place you want to be) all in one. From the super cool 100+yr old one lane bridge on the road in, to the money stapled to the ceiling, this place would be equally at home in places like New Orleans or Chicago. I will definitely be back.“
“Food tasty, service was attentive and the prices were manageable. A nice neighborhood bar for a meal. Our waitress was exceptionally nice and met our every request with a smile. She was really busy and seemed happy. There were two other waitresses who seemed a lot on edge. There were two bus boys who helped during the evening. All in all a fun experience.“
“Great bar to enjoy delicious pizza and drinks and play a wide variety of pinball. The owners are awesome and always there to make sure their machines are in tip-top shape, and it's CLEAN!!! If you enjoy pinball, you should consider joining their league! Everyone there is friendly and welcoming. Their sister bar (The Silverballroom) is a must visit too!“
“Tried one of the RFT's top 5 that has the distinction of having been honored multiple times for serving the best St. Louis-style pizza in the region — without actually using Provel. It had a great crust, the cheese and toppings were good, too. It was ok, but you couldn't taste the sauce. I would definitely try again and ask for more sauce.“
“We hosted a surprise birthday party for my fiancé at the Rec Hall's private room and it was a perfect space! The room was huge and even had its own outdoor portion for guests to use as well which we did not know about at first! The private room had ample table space for setting up food and tables/chairs/couches for guests to lounge and eat at along with its own private games as well. We really enjoyed using the two tvs to display a photo slideshow and a big bluetooth speaker to play music which were all provided already in the booking package. In addition to the private room being a great space for everyone, what really impressed my guests and I were how attentive and friendly the staff were! They attended to the guests for drinks constantly and helped us with setting up for the event as well as answering any questions we had at the time. They all provided great customer service and were always quick to help when we wanted to order more pizza for example. Everyone had a great time and we will all definitely be back!“
“Friendly's is a great atmosphere. They have any and every sports game on, the TV 's are plentiful, the drinks are cheap, and there's plenty of games to entertain the family. The staff are always nice and helpful, and give you that nice hometown feeling. I strongly suggest stopping by!Wheelchair accessibility: It is handicap accessible.“
“What an absolutely divine bar. My husband, brother-in-law, and myself popped in here for a couple of late night cocktails while walking around St. Charles. Kubrick’s was extremely welcoming, wonderfully decorated, and they even had fun drinks of the month. I have a deep appreciation for the aesthetic of this spot, and the bartender was extremely friendly. Please do keep in mind that if you do not like cigarette smoke, this place may not be for you, as smoking is allowed inside. We will definitely be back when we are in Missouri again next year, visiting my in-laws for the holiday!“
“The most legit perfect “hole in the wall” bar I have ever been to! Heavy pours, family owned and operated! Service is pure perfection! AllAround great atmosphere! Perfect place to drink, feel welcomed, and awesome place to meet good people! Conversations are fun, witty and always interesting/ entertaining!“
“Good food.. just wish the waiter would have worried about our table just as much as the larger table. Not good for it to take 1.5 hours before your main food arrived.. but could have just been a off night.. still like the place and will go again in the future.“
“Our plane had issues so we had to stay overnight and we found this place. Hands down, the best atmosphere, and food around. You just have to experience it for yourself. ??❤️ Hospitality level 1000 straight Expert Mode!!! Check em out yall!!“
“I love this place! Especially the bartender Chris! He is my absolute favorite: kind, wise and an exceptional bartender! Love hanging out here in the dark gothic historic bar. Thank you for a great time ~ Please note the worst reviews are like 100 years old!“

“Chris was our server and did an amazing job with checking in with us during our meal, which enhanced the quality of the service even more! Bar Louie St. Charles is me and my BFF favorite hang out spot to decompress from the hustle and bustle of life. We appreciate the service and quality food they offer!“
“Fun local bar. If you're looking for a cheap friendly spot to grab a drink or watch a game this may be a decent spot. All of the folks at the beer seemed like regulars and they were all very friendly. There is also a full-sized ping pong table that was free to play so our group had some fun playing each other while enjoying our drinks.“
“Outstanding Yelp find. We were in the area and read a review about the best burgers in town. Gotta say, they got it spot on. Great service, very tasty burgers, served up hot with Very good fries. Overall a great location.....we'll be back!!“
“Judy does a wonderful job with the bar and makes everyone feel comfortable and safe when out for a good time. The Pub is probably my favorite bar ever, but then again I might be biased as I have many friends and family members that have all frequented the place in the past as well as currently. But it really feels like an extension of home every time I visit.Parking: Park in front or around the side and if you have to you can even park in back.“
“A great time was had by all! I love the Famous Bar, a martini bar that has two pool tables! Yes, please! The bartenders are great! Always friends and attentive. The martinis were superb! I always love bringing new friends here to experience this hidden gem!“
“What a super cool bar. Kimmie was arevbartender and she was super friendly and definitely knew her job. She served us very cold beers and kept the shots coming. Probably 70% females and everyone including doorman was very friendly and respectful. They have a killer jukebox, pool table, and darts. Bathrooms where very clean and over all just a laidback chill place to spend a Friday night. I will be heading back soon. Highly recommended!!!“
“Excellent little bowling alley in the top of a cupcake shop. This place is a time capsule back to the 60s with wood panel everything, billiards, jukeboxes, and excellent bowling equipment. Went for a 5 year olds party and they had a blast. The owner did a lot of decorating as well and we had no problem with anything.“
“Really cool place with good food. I enjoyed being able to try different drinks. I don’t drink beer but they even have a wall for cocktails and wine. It’s a cool concept. We had several different pizzas at our table. All of them were delicious but I thought the maple bourbon pig was the best. We will definitely be back.“
“This is a 10 star place. The atmosphere is great, the service is top notch and the food was spectacular. No wait time and the waitress checked on our table throughout. We had ribs, burnt ends, and lean brisket. All great! Definitely try the cracker Mac and cheese, it's to die for!“
“One of my very favorite bars! I've been here multiple times and I'm always happy visiting and spending time here. The vibe is upbeat but chill, and they have a great year round patio. This visit in particular was on Mardi Gras, which was a great spot to have a couple drinks without actually heading down to Soulard. We sat on the heated patio and had a couple of drinks and were able to chat while still hearing one another. Bartenders are always helpful and friendly, and they have a good selection of beverages. I typically go for the 4Hands seltzers since they're my fav. It got to be super packed full of Mardi Gras go-ers, so we headed out after about an hour and a half. Always a good choice!“
“The food was very good. Our sever "Jennifer" was kinda rude and did not return after paying check. Coffee and Juice is not included with brunch it was on or the other which seemed odd to me. I will be back just with another sever.“
