“Ordered a veggie pizza and a salad. 4-cheese, mushroom, onion and dark olives. Not black olives, but dark Greek type olives. Pizza was Great. Only one size but enough for 2 people. The salads are made ahead of time, found in a care, but taste very fresh. Only an oil dressing is offered, but it was wonderful. We dipped the crust of the pizza in the extra oil dressing, yummy. Had the lemonade - delicious!”

“Great food. Reasonable prices.”

“I have tried Thai restaurants all over the United States. This place has some of the best pad Thai I have ever eaten if you like spice make sure to ask for level five because it’s the perfect blend of heat and flavor plus it just dang hot and I love it.”

“Great food friendly service, and a great atmosphere”

“This is THE ONLY place I see the owner and the emploies that know the customers names and seem to treat the regulars like family. I watched one person not know what they wanted and the owner said I know what you want, and brought some food, and that person said yes this is exactly what she wanted. Things like this happen all the time here. And the food is good :)”

“been my favorite place for over a year”

“Main Street is a great friendly atmosphere with even better food. I have eaten here for nearly 20 years and have always been satisfied. The waiters are top notch and make sure you have everything you need.”

“We had Kettelhut cater an event for us this weekend and honestly, we cannot say enough amazing things about them. We had them serve 2 lunches and a dinner service for over 100 people. I had so many people tell us how amazing the food was. A few people said it was the best food they have ever had at a Christmas tree meeting. Jeff was amazing to work with, even helping us in a pinch when our last caterer failed us. he made the process so easy, and always kept us up to date on everything and anything. Again, thank you so much for everything and we will definitely be using your catering services again!”

“Love the chili! Fantastic service. Staff are friendly & helpful. Always busy but never a long wait. The atmosphere is the best. We love sitting outdoors & enjoying the water feature, it creates a memorable experiences.

Kid-friendliness: My granddaughter loves sitting by the waterfall and she especially likes the frog that spits water out. How fun!”

“We ordered a pretzel bite tray for NYE 2024 and it was delicious. The cheese sauce that came with it was raved about by my picky teenager. The ambiance inside the bakery was wonderful. We hope to return soon to try their cinnamon rolls!”

“Tried this place with my family for the first time. Everything we got was sooo good and everyone was so helpful. The portions were even big enough for us to split up to save some for later. For the 5 of us it was $98. That was for regular drinks, Boba teas, our meals, and 3 appetizers. Our dine in experience was a 10/10, we will definitely be back!”

“Excellent staff. Excellent environment. Excellent food. Excellent drinks.”

“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).”

“Good service and friendly service”

“The corner cup micro bakery is a quaint little spot in festus Missouri that has awesome coffee and delicious baked goods. If you haven't been there, you're missing out!”

“Like many of us do, we eat at a lot of different Mexican restaurants, but we feel this one by far exceeds them all. Their food is delicious and always fresh. We feel that the margaritas are the best in Jefferson County. The people who own it are friendly and our service is always fantastic. What we like about the service is if you want to hurry up and eat and leave, they will provide that for you. But if you like to sit around like we do with our friends and have pictures of margaritas and not be rushed they will allow that also. We absolutely love we are never rushed. Hands-down, it is our favorite Mexican restaurant in all of Jefferson County and in the top three in the entire St. Louis /Jefferson County area. We are huge fans of the shrimp fajitas.”

“Simple food. Down home ambiance.”

“We SO enjoyed our brunch today- called for a last minute reservation for 10+ ❤️‍🩹 We could not have been more pleased! From the delicious hot coffee, fabulous entrees and considerate care from the wait staff it was an A+ experience ♥️Strawberry salad, and the Caramel Apple French Toast were two favorites ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Food is SO flavorful and fresh, service is really quick, and it's a really cute little restaurant. This will be heavily featured in my lunch rotation from now on.”

“just left & everything was amazing ! best customer service ever & amazing food ! will be returning customers !!”

“Used to have to go to Wisconsin to get Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream Company’s ice cream but now it’s available in our region. Stopped by for a shot of espresso over a scoop of ‘#*!*Serious’ (an affogato) and it was fantastic. Best ever. So nice to have a coffee AND ice cream shop under one roof. Courteous staff, too! Next time I’m going to take my wife and do a little local shopping. Beautiful downtown Main Street area.”

“We’ve never had a bad experience here and have only been a few times. It’s one of the only Italian restaurants in the area so they get pretty packed, but somehow we’ve never waited for a table and they’re fast. The food can take a second because it’s made fresh, but totally worth it. Best tortellini and Alfredo. Their drinks and deserts are pretty great to. Lunch time is the best!”

“I had lunch here with a friend. I got the pizza and salad lunch special. The salad was excellent! The pizza was pretty good. The service was great and my experience overall will bring me back”

“We stopped at this place tonight after going to an escape room. Very cool ambiance. Super friendly waitress. Amazing food! I’d come back to Festus just to eat here again. Will definitely be back and will definitely recommend to others.”

“First time there and what a fantastic time with friends and family! Staff, food, drinks, and owners are top notch! We will be frequent customers for sure! ❤️👍🏼Tom & Erin”
