“The staff was very helpful on the phone, answering the questions I had about the online ordering for catering, and helping me adjust my pick-up time. The food was ready right on time, and the staff member who loaded it into my car was very courteous. The food . . . was amazing - the best shrimp and grits ever! And the chunks of turkey in the red beans and rice - delicious!“

“Been coming here since a little kiddo and my grandparents ate here on the opening day many years ago. As a family, we have over the years kept coming to Chuck A Burger for the outstanding food. Amazing burgers, chili fries, the shakes are wonderful and my all time favorite the chicken and bacon wrap and the pineapple shake. I get my wrap grilled with blue cheese and it's delicious. Also delicious tea, sweetened and unsweetened. My mom and me still stop by at least once or twice a month. Curbside service is fast and the employees are so friendly and helpful at all times but, also when trying new items or ordering for others as well. I really appreciate their great attitudes and their amazing customer service. This will always be my quick and delicious food stop. Many teenage memories as well 😊 Take a moment and stop by for lunch or dinner. You will be so happy you did and also full.“

“This is the perfect venue for any large gathering or celebration - the best food,m and an awesome atmosphere!“

“Ok, here’s the thing… I love food. And when I say I love food, you might think I’m a huge person or a food critic or a chef or just a dramatic fan. Well, I am actually an artist, and I… I can tell you in no uncertain terms, that the food we received was *high art.* I don’t mean the kind of pretentious high art food that is served in tiny portions and so beautiful that you almost don’t want to eat it. I mean that it was masterfully created—flavorful, textured to perfection, filling, and lamentable *only* in that I wish I’d had room for more. We started with the stuffed mushroom appetizer—which I’ll admit is not usually my favorite, but my wife generally loves—served upon a sprinkle of arugula and a slashed drizzle of balsamic glaze. Imma tell ya… I like stuffed mushrooms now. My wife ordered an entrée of eggplant Parmesan—one that she doesn’t care to make often for herself only because (and I’m quoting), “It’s a pain in the a$$ to cook.” I ordered linguine Pomodoro with added shrimp and had the steamed mussels appetizer served with my entrée, so that I could add them in (as I *do* love a tutto mare). Since my wife’s entrée was one of her favorites, and I don’t generally care for it, I left her to it, concentrating on my own. I shucked all the mussels and strained their accompanying shallots and bacon into my linguine leaving the garlic and cilantro pesto behind for bread dipping. OH [*clap*clap*clap*]—I forgot to mention the bread. They served a fantastic mini loaf of the softest bread topped with caramelized onions alongside fresh grated Parmesan in olive oil. Upon our finishing it off, I asked for a second helping. Back to the entrée… My first actual bite was of the mussels, and that bite was fantastic. Then I had one of the shrimp… and… here’s the thing… I am a poet, and I also write children’s books, so when I tell you that I simply do not have a superlative sufficient to describe the shrimp, you know I’m being serious. It was warm, seasoned, and snappy as shrimp should be, but it gave me pause—as Anton Ego in Ratatouille. * First, doubt—that I had experienced something so specifically wonderful before * Then, a quick scan from childhood to now for confirmation * And lastly, the comfort that can only come from those happiest memories of childhood—Christmas mornings on receiving more than you could ever have hoped for, Halloween nights’ preparations for what giggles and terrors were to come, and burrito-you ensconced in soft blankets straight from the dryer Then of course, the rest of the dish, twirled and slurped—not too quickly… every bite a confirmation and yet still a revelation. Here again, my only lament that I must see a portion of it boxed to leave room for dessert. And… dessert. Oh, boy… Seeing all of the items, my wife and I—in celebration of our 26th anniversary—decided on the sampler. Listen up, folks: flourless chocolate torta, crème custard napoleon, and gooey butter cake. JFC are you serious? Every bite more sumptuous—more scrumptious than the last. Every bit a reassurance that I will return. Our server, Chelsea, was commendable not only for her menu knowledge and sense of humor, but it’s not for nothing that she was absolutely on top of it with regard to my tea refills (which were many, as our dinner took place after a dehydratingly-busy workday for me). We will definitely be returning to Eleven Eleven, whereupon I intend to try a few different items, my palate then flooded with new sensations—new wonders… my only lament that I will not ever have that “first time experience” again.“

“First time visitor here, and Square One really left a great first impression! I brought a group of 8 in for a birthday dinner, and the staff really went above and beyond to accommodate a short-notice reservation for us. Unfortunately I don’t remember our server’s name, but she was phenomenal as well. Food was fantastic, our waters were always filled, and finished dishes didn’t sit around long. Would definitely recommend and will visit again!“

“the food was great, the service was great too! Maya was our waitress. when we left I forgot my purse, and I didn't realize it until the next day! went back and they had it set back for me, completely intact! great business!!“

“Great food and excellent service“

“The food came through door-dash still hot it was seasoned to perfection & so delicious it was also a nice size portion & my first time trying I’ll be back 🔥“

“I just hosted my bridal shower at Jerry's Cafeteria, it was a beautiful day and stress free due to not having to worry about food, utensils, plates, beverages, and table linens. such an easy set up when we arrived ❤️ highly recommend“

“My most favorite place to eat in Granite City!! The food is amazing and I eat there almost everyday. Great Place with exceptional food!“

“My 4 year old LOVES to cook, everyone was so welcoming and helpful when we visited! Everything is always clean and organized and the food is delicious! It was nice to prep meals and provide a great learning experience all in one! My little chef and I will be back!“

“Love having more queer, chill spaces ❤️“

“I love the healthy options. Something to satisfy a wide variety of tastes. Good size portions. We often take some leftovers home. The mother earth bowl and forbidden rice are stellar. Just add a protein if you want more. I highly recommend the salmon. Our grand kids like the child options. The restaurant can be noisy inside so we usually eat outside on their patio or order ahead and pickup to go. The line to order may seem long but the food comes out fairly quickly. You can always use the app to order ahead and then eat there when you pick it up.“

“Fantastic chicken and waffles!“

“amazing. The owner is hands down top notch“

“First time at Mac’s tonight! We met Mac at the register and he was so kind and gave great suggestions! The food was delicious and while we are sad we didn’t get to try the onion dip (it was sold out!), we’ll definitely be back! The games to play at the table were a huge hit for our son. Don’t change a thing, it’s totally working.“

“the service was amazing the waitress was very helpful and very pleasant“

“Very customer oriented..it’s always good never disappoints“

“NOBODY makes a Popeye spinach omelet like they do! Also love the arch skillet; some jalapenos at breakfast help you wake up in the morning!. The potatoes are fresh - they don't come frozen, out of a bag!“

“any time I order here the food is great! I highly recommend the deep fried gooey cake as a dessert…thank me later! (you can tell the food is made with love!)“

“We visited the Art Museum last week and then had lunch at The Panorama resturant at the suggestion of a friendly person we met earlier at the Half and Half in Clayton. This person told us about how great the brussel sprouts were at the Panorama and so we had to try them and they were fabulous. All of us, including my mother, who is 88 years young, thoroughly enjoyed the meal. We set next to the large wall of windows and the sun shone perfectly, lighting the room with a beautiful warmth. The server was excellent and the menu becons our return.“

“Spectacular venue! Great food, drinks, and sound. Can’t wait to go back for the next show!“

“Food and service was awesome.“

“Nick (Grass) took care of us very well. Not only was he very friendly, but let us know various types of drinks and the prices of them as well! We would absolutely refer him to anyone we come in contact with looking to have a great but valuable time!“

“waited 15 minutes after being seated while wait staff just ignored us. we finally asked the hostess if we could place our order. a waiter came out finally, no apology for our wait. we placed.our order the he never came back. we waited 15 minutes after ordering and never got our beverages. it wasn't super crowded, only the patio was full. it's a shame because they do have good food but I will not be returning. Do not recommend if you ever want to eat. I have never walked out of a restaurant like that in my 42 years. it was terrible“

“I took a high school Culinary class here on a field trip and the service was phenomenal. Dana was the best server and so sweet. There was a wide variety of delicious food to choose from and everyone left full and very happy. Will definitely return!“

“Couldn't decide what we wanted to eat. My husband said let's try Jordan Fish Chicken and Grill and I said I guess. When I got there to pick up my food they were really friendly and their customer service was on point! They asked if I would like to try their honey hot chicken wing and I said sure, I won't lie I was skeptical because some honey hot sauces are too hot, but it was PERFECT! I even spilled the sauce all over my coat, smh... our food was good also. Next time I will be ordering the honey hot chicken! Thank you and see ya' next time!“

“I visited the Ferguson location today w a friend who will be moving away from STL shortly. We were both first time visitors. Cathy was cooking and the food was amazing. My friend had the Friday Special (catfish, shrimp, and wings) while I chose the Thursday special of wings and shrimp. Both dishes were perfectly executed, tasty, and not at all oily. 10/10. Please support this small business.“

“An FYI for St Louis area friends. We had brunch at Eclipse (Moonrise Hotel) and the food prep was excellent! It's a shame that we were the first people they had today; they opened at 9am and we arrived at noon. 😬 Give them a try!“

“This is one of the best eateries inside the St Louis Union Station Hotel for breakfast & lunch. I’ve eaten there all week & had not one complaint. The burgers were one of the best burgers I had for lunch & dinner outside of NYC. Great place. You will not regret it.“

“The ambiance was very warm and welcoming. Marquise our server was most knowledgeable and helpful. No one rushed or hurried us. The food was excellent and we were impressed that chef took time at the end of our meal to come by our table and have a conversation. We will surely be back!“

“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.“

“The Avenue came highly recommended and lived up to its reputation. I joined my siblings for lunch here. The staff was friendly and attentive. The lunch menu was expansive and delicious. I recommend the pear cocktail and manhattan winter. W enjoyed the French on Mon soup, beet salad, penne with mushrooms, schnitzel sandwich, and classic creme bruise.“

“I had a fantastic Tuesday night dinner. They were offering a $30 3 Course Dinner, but I went with the $25 Pepperloin Steak.

Before ordering, I enjoyed a Tito's Extra Dry Martini with a Lemon Twist. The bartenders here are masters of their mixologist skills. Trust me I know, they've made my a lot of cocktails.

Once my entree arrived, I totally impressed with all three items. The asparagus was prepared perfectly. It wasn't too hard and not overly soft. It had just enough snap. The Loaded Baked Potato was the size of a fist, which is a perfect size. It was fluffy and was topped with butter, cheese and bacon. The steak was truly the piece of resistance. It was super tender and they served it a true medium rare. The kitchen truly knocked it out of the park with this meal. I was a happy diner.

Good food and good service will have me returning to Gentelin's, time and time again.“

“We traveled up to Crown Candy on a Saturday morning for lunch, we heard about the massive BLT and their Malts from one of our vendors at work. BLT? Worth the drive. The Malts? Amazing. Even our 9yr old was beyond satisfied with his grilled cheese and ice cream. I would also like to add- we had around a 8 minute wait outside to be seated at a table…. The wait truly didn’t feel very long due to their amazing staff. The waitress constantly kept coming out and checking on us, letting us know it wouldn’t be much longer. Our waitress at our table was amazing. I truly recommend you stop in here even if it’s just for ice cream or a malt. The atmosphere, service and food is just all around great.“

“Always a lovely meal at Almonds! Their pan friend chicken is the dish I keep coming back for. Its a love at first taste. Despite my favoritism, anything written on the chalkboards are wonderful. Almonds is an excellent and consistent spot to meet up with friends to enjoy a comforting meal.“

“Door dash was great.
pros: great rib tip tender& juicy
chicken was average
potatoes salad great
CONS: No option online to choose sides
spaghetti noodles over cooked, saucy and spicy ??‍♀️“

“Absolutely delicious. Hands down one of the better BBQ joints in the St. Louis area. Apple butter ribs were a major hit at work. 10/10 will go here again“

“Great atmosphere before any sports event!“

“Good food good drinks clean bathrooms it’s a whole vibe hood energy great bartenders“

“It was such a great time! Food excellent, wine even better and the atmosphere was so awesome. Low lighting just a great vibe“
