Handel’s Market delivered an exceptional meal from start to finish. The steaks were prepared perfectly—beautifully cooked and elevated even further by their amazing steak butter sauce. The rolls came out fresh, warm, and baked to perfection, and the salads were crisp and delightful.

The ambience is cozy and thoughtfully done, with the charm of a historic building adding so much character. I loved the two separate dining rooms, each with its own inviting feel. There’s ample parking both on the street and behind the restaurant, which makes the whole experience even easier. They also have a full bar stocked with everything you could want—wine, beer, seltzers, bourbons, and more—and the service was friendly and attentive throughout the evening.

This is upscale dining that still feels comfortable, making it perfect for a date night, a celebratory dinner, or simply a great meal with friends. Prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the overall experience. I’d definitely recommend making reservations. There’s also an outdoor patio that looks absolutely adorable—can’t wait to try it when the weather is nice.

Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience here! Emma S. was our server, and she was very friendly. She gave us super fast service on our tight schedule in town from Indiana. Such an adorable place we highly recommend!

This place is worth the fight for a parking spot. I had the vegan burger for the first time and it won’t be my last. It was the best vegan burger I’ve had in the St. Louis area. It was perfectly seasoned and cooked and appeared to be a handmade patty. The fries were also excellent - great crispy outsides and fluffy on the inside. Make the trip. It is worth it!

The best place in Florissant to have a meal with friends and family. Beautifully decorated from the light fixtures, and decor all the way down to the coffee service. They repurpose old whiskey bottles as water pitchers and their to go boxes etc. are not plastic. So, they get 5 Stars for their E-Rating. The French Onion soup is delicious and their pasta dishes are decadent. They have vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free items on their menu as well. They have a penny press machine for collectors and they have the cutest wooden blocks, painted by an artist showcasing all the cornerstone businesses in Florissant. Definitely a place you have to visit.

I absolutely love Hendel's!! We are frequent guest to this restaurant but always treated like family. As regular customers the staff has gotten to know us by name. The food is always good. The service is always top notch!! I ordered the 10 Oz. Strip steak today. It was delicious. They had red velvet cake for dessert. I got a slice to go. It was delicious!!

This has got to be the hidden gem in florissant. Tucked away in a beautifully historic neighborhood and some of the best food and atmosphere I've seen. I love this place.

Hendels is the place we fell in love, found out we were having a boy, and our go-to date spot for a sure-thing good meal and great service.

Ratings (regular/ Gluten free)
Food: (4/4)
-this is a best-for-the-price-point class place. Food is always good. Every item on the menu is pleasant, well prepared, and as described.
Service: (4/5)
-they can make most things GF. Which is awesome.
Atmosphere:
The vibe is great. It's a hustle and bustle kind of place where the staff is SO hospitable and the fellow diners are kind also. Maybe a little TOO nice (since the volume is on the upper range of talkable).
Drinks:
Seasonal cocktails are good but nothing I really write home about. HOWEVER, I've found if I just order a classic cocktail (negroni, old fashioned, Martini, etc), it is always fantastic.
