Restaurants near Defiance

“Defiance Ridge winery was gorgeous, in its natural setting as well as the structures, multiple patios cantilever into the side if the hill. It appears to have a spacious event center with lovely full fireplace. The wine was deleesh, my selection was Alpaca White blend. Good selection of brew and cocktails....their participation in the Harvest Host program was a welcome resting spot for the night.”

“I am so glad someone re-opened this business in downtown Defiance! Please stop through and check this place out! The good was delicious! I went for the reuben and my companion went for the Frisco burger. It did not disappoint! The sandwiches were delicious and the portions generous. The staff was plenty and helpful with our selections. They upgraded the interior but kept a few of the squirrel decor from before. The outside had lots of seating and we took advantage of the beautiful weather to sit outside. The wait staff was very attentive and made sure they kept the iced tea coming, and checking on us from time to time. I highly recommend this place whether you are driving or even bicycling through. This is very close to the Katy Trail, so you can park your bike and have a sit down.”

“We went to the new location in Wildwood on Father’s Day, with some friends, and it was refreshing watching the children playing games, and families together. This place is going to be a great success in Wildwood. Congratulations, we certainly enjoyed ourselves yesterday.”

“Had an excellent time at SCW. We hosted a bridal shower and the weather, setting was perfect. Being able to bring your own food is a awesome. The owner checked in on us multiple times. Just wish he would've left the black lab out 😂”

“I hosted a baby shower for my daughter in the Barrel Room and it was the perfect place. The staff was so accommodating from the beginning to the end. Brooke and Emily had quick response times and very professional. Matt was our server and he was top notch along with the food on this special day! Thank you so much!”

“Remarkably yummy Italian joint near Maryland Heights. They have a massive pizza oven and their dough tastes like it's made from truly Italian 00 flour - thin, crispy and delicious. The pasta is pretty special, too.”

“Absolutely the best Indian food in st Charles county. Had the goat curry and it was so good! I got the high spice level but if you can’t handle the heat they have mild levels as well. The sugar cane drink was so tasty and the ginger paired well with the spice. Highly recommend Persis Indian Grill. We will be a repeat customer!”

“Tasty treats, service?

We ordered four cookies: the Strawberry Cookie, Oreo Cookie, Birthday Cookie, and the Toffee Cake. Each one was absolutely amazing—rich flavors, perfect textures, and a real treat for me and my two daughters! Crumbl consistently delivers on quality, and we loved every bite.

However, the service on December 2nd around 6 PM left a bit to be desired. The middle-aged woman taking orders seemed impatient as we decided between two cookies, even though there was no line behind us. It made the experience less enjoyable and felt unnecessarily rushed.

To the Crumbl leadership team (CEO, COO): Please ensure all staff are trained on the importance of friendly and welcoming customer service. It's just as vital as the quality of your cookies.

Overall, the cookies were fantastic, but a little more kindness at the counter would make the experience perfect!”

“Soooooo delicious! The cake frosting reminds me of heaven scent 😋”

“Best Gyro I've had in years!”

“When I needed a cake for an impromptu party I decided only 12 days ahead on, I picked up the phone and called Sweet Spot Cake Shoppe and reached out to Donna. I had a kinda, round about idea of what I was after, but honestly I just wanted 1/4 sheet 1/2 chocolate 1/2 white with LIGHT icing and I wanted the USMC Globe and Anchor logo and a RR track around the perimeter. Her FIRST ATTEMPT (that's right 1st) was a Grand Slam. This cake is for a Vietnam Combat Veteran Marine and I wanted it perfect. SSCS blew my expectations out of the water. In fact, I'd say came in about 20-25% less than the same at the big chain bakeries, not to mention it was one fresh, perfect cake, nothing misspelled or 3" of frosting on top of some dried out 4 day old cake that was mass produced. Made to order and more affordable! 5 stars across the board! Thanks for making the party complete!”

“I ordered a mix of cookies for my husbands 60th birthday party. I brought in a sample pictures of how I wanted some of them decorated. They turned out awesome! She did a great job. Everyone raved about them and asked where I got them. So I spread the word! I would 100% recommend The Cookie Box! 😁🍪”

“drove over 45 minutes to take my whole family out for my dad's birthday dinner and Kay was amazing! perfect weather for patio seating and she even brought out a candle in some fried oreos for him! such an awesome place! my dad blew out his candle and said for his birthday wish, he wished we lived closer 🤣 thank you guys for being so sweet and accommodating!”

“The Hawthorne Inn is one of the best restaurants just outside of the St. Louis area. My boyfriend and I make the drive out from St. Charles, MO. The service is always exceptional, and the food is absolutely amazing. I’ve never had a dish I didn’t like. Their house salad is one of my favorites. The prices for the quality and portion sizes are very reasonable as well. Perfect place for dates, special occasions, or any occasion at all, as their menu offers a wide variety from soups & salads, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, and various dinner entrees.”

“I did a party for my mom's retirement and everything from the planning with Chrissy to the absolute immaculate service with Sasha was easy and everyone was very kind and helpful. We will be booking again and Thank you for the amazing experience!!!”

“Servers and their assistants were friendly, professional and helpful. All the food and drinks were excellent. We had several courses. Everything was beautifully seasoned, never bland or heavy handed with the salt! The sauces were delicate and exciting and were not too much or too overpowering. One off the best Italians restaurants and one of the best overall. We’ll be back and bring our friends.”

“Empanadas are tasty. Coffee is great!”

“Great atmosphere and experience. Would highly recommend!!!”

“Great flavor, I got this Jalapeño Burger, I might not have read the menu right but not always a fan of sweet and meat, but this was great!!!! Service was okay. Friendly, just busy im sure. The greek fries are quite good, the other member of my party got the Fish n Chips, the tartar sauce is quite amazing!!!!!

“New Melle Baking Company provides baked goods for our Chamber meeting. The scones today were amazing!! Thank you for always having us covered!”

“I ordered a gluten free, chocolate cake with chocolate icing and raspberry filling for a friends 30th birthday party. Everyone absolutely loved the cake. Some of us compared it to tasting brownie like, as it is a very thick cake. They were able to make the cake with a two weeks notice & they were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I will definitely be coming back when I need more special cakes made!”

“They won best restaurant of 2023 for a reason. This place is absolutely insane and less people should sleep on it.”
