New American Restaurants near Frontenac, MO

“Definitely start with the Parkerhouse rose with honey truffle butter. This was a perfect place for a multigenerational family to have dinner. The menu has something for everyone and everything we ordered was well prepared and delicious our server Danny was fantastic handling a large group I will return.“

“"From the moment I stepped into The Crossing in Clayton, I knew I was in for a remarkable dining experience. The exceptional service began with Sunny, who skillfully handled my reservation, and continued with David's warm welcome at the door. My server, Joshua, was simply outstanding, ensuring that my visit was nothing short of perfect.What truly set this experience apart was the meticulous attention to dietary restrictions for both me and my guests. It's rare to find a restaurant that genuinely cares and accommodates with such grace.The meal was unforgettable, leaving me talking about it for weeks. But the cherry on top was a chance encounter with Joseph on the sidewalk days later. His genuine follow-up about my experience showcased a level of care and knowledge that is unparalleled in the industry.The Crossing in Clayton is not just a restaurant; it's an experience where the staff goes above and beyond, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking culinary excellence and exceptional service."“

“My wife and I ate there for the 1st time and we'll definitely be back soon! The slinger brought me back to my college days eating at Courtesy, although this place is a heck of a lot nicer! 10 out of 10 I'd recommend to anybody!!“

“Great brunch @ Russell's ! The cinnamon roll is a must try. And it's huge!!!! The portion sizes are very generous, probably could have shared the BLATE. Everything was fresh and the menu had lots of variety. Definitely excited to go back and try some other dishes. Cute, clean restaurant. Indoor, outdoor, and covered patio seating. Friendly staff and the bakery items are all so tasty. I especially love the cupcakes and brownies. We went on a sunday around 10:30 without a reservation, the wait was 30 minutes but we expected it so didn't bother us.“

“I have eaten here before, as well as The Shack and The Corner Pub and Grill (sister restaurants next door) - as I have Celiac Disease, and I just wanted to write a quick THANK YOU review, which I do not do all that often. Wonderful atmosphere and the food was amazing. They go out of their way to ensure your needs are met. Special thanks to Chrissy for helping to coordinate a reservation for my family reunion. And very special thanks to our waiter Aaron, as his demeanor and attention to detail really made it meaningful and memorable. My entire family was very impressed and this helped solidify the fact that we had made the right choice for dinning on our special occasion. Please visit them if you have not already. Thanks again!“

“I am VERY biased as I work at The Barn... but I think this place is the bomb! The only challenge we ever have is sometimes there is a wait.... but that is a wonderful problem to have for us... and ALSO we now have a waitlist that you can join online... so having to wait is soon to be a problem of the past!PRO TIP #1: When I am working on Sat & Sun as the host... say the code-phrase "I go Coo-Coo-for-Cocoa-Puffs" to me and I will move you to the front of the list!PRO TIP #2: "Rutti-Tutti-Fresh-And-Fruity" also works as the code-phrasePRO TIP #3: This DOES NOT work on anyone else at The Barn, just me!“

“OH MY GOD THE STUDS TASTES BETTER ON DRAFT. If you love Fitz soda then you HAVE to come here. The BBQ pulled pork was delicious and the floats are the real attraction. Would give food a 3.5 if I could but typing on a phone so yeah. It's not that the food is bad. It's just doesn't quite live up to the price point in my opinion“

“By far me and my husband’s favorite place to get food hands down. We have eaten here many times and i have had just about everything on the menu at this point and I have not been disappointed with a single thing. By far my favorite thing here is the ribeye dinner meal for the price it’s wonderful and extremely filling. Being open late on weekends has come in clutch many times when it’s late and don’t want to cook for myself.“

“We sat outside for lunch, cute patio, comfortable and inviting. The server was very good, we didn't have to wait for anything, drinks were very good the Hanger steak & fries was the absolute best Hanger steak I've ever had, the chimichuri was a great compliment to the steak. My husband had the Blackened Chicken Alfredo it was amazing, the sauce had the best flavor and the chicken was cooked perfectly. We definitely will be back!!“

“I could go on and on about how great the food is, but what really sets them apart is the service. Every person that I've run into appears to genuinely like working there. Just makes for an overall enjoyable experience and obvious that the owners treat them well. And the patrons benefit from that. So happy to have them in the neighborhood.“

“Katie was ex exceptional. She tomed her visits to the table well, and anticipated refils without disrupting the conversation. She answered questions with ease. Her timing was impeccable. She was attentive without hovering. Her service embodied true caring about the dining experience of her guests. The kitchen staff was also excellent. Everything came out hot, fresh and perfectly timed. Overall, outstanding experience.“

“Really yummy :)) everybody inside was friendly and welcoming in a very genuine way that makes you feel very cared for. The ribs were soo well cooked and the pulled pork was tender (reminds me of being home w my dad who always makes ribs for us). I always love mac & cheese but especially here. The atmosphere has a really sweet/homey feel, definitely recommend going“

“The real note to make here is that our server was absolutely outstanding, she was so pleasant, knowledgeable, kind and attentive to our table... Probably the best server / waitress I have encountered in a very long time. She was a delight. The food was very good. The only thing I had some pretty mixed emotions about was that we were asked to leave after 75 mins due to an incoming reservation. We had a reservation at 5:00 and there was a table at the bar we moved to to finish our cocktails... the couple that was with us were a little more bothered than I was over it, but I would probably still go again. It was a overall a good experience.“

“Just found out about Timothy's restaurant and love it. The staff and food are amazing. They worked hard at wanting to please us and give us a wonderful evening. I had the dinner special being offered that was a pasta with morel mushrooms. So good. The salad I ordered was the house salad that was a variety of unique lettuces and vegetables with goat cheese and I think a buttermilk dressing. So good. There was Asiago bread on the table. We stayed late talking and while having wine with our friends, I watched the staff work setting up the tables for the next day and was impressed with their professionalism on how the table was set up with precision. Everything was lined up on its mark. Only carrying and handling the water & wine glasses at the bottom. Cloth napkins. Etc. Everything you would expect from fine dining and a five star restaurant. We had a cocktail before dinner that was a special offered by the bartender, it had fresh fruit & herbs on top, very good. The wine section was outstanding and enjoyed a couple of bottles in our group. Highly recommend this intimate place for its food, drink, service and atmosphere. Really a hidden gem. We will be telling our friends and will go back often.“

“We have been using AofE for many years now for our office lunches. Our order has been correct every single time! It is always fresh and delicious! Their desserts are YUM!Our board members always comment on how much they look forward to and enjoy the lunches provided at our meetings. They communicate well during the ordering process. Staff is always friendly and professional! The owner Ann is amazing to work with! Thank you!“

“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“

“We had an amazing dinner tonight at YaYa’s! The sea scallops were exquisite and are the best we’ve had in St. Louis. The salmon salad and gnocchi were delectable, as were the cocktails. The icing on the cake was being served by the one and only, Andy Samberg!! I can’t believe he works here! The service was amazing as was his comedic nature! Everything about this place was top notch.!! We absolutely will be back! BEST.NIGHT. EVER!! ☺️“

“We realize it was Valentine's Day, so that may have been the culprit here. But... we were encouraged to order all our courses up front, which we won't do again. Each subsequent course arrived long before we were finished with the previous one, leading to a crowded table and a sense of being rushed, which wasn't what we were seeking for a VD meal.... Food delicious, wait staff lovely, all else good. But timing of the courses was oblivious to the pace of consumption.“

“Friday lunch was delicious. The atmosphere is lovely and refined. The Peppe’s and spinach salads were very good. The entrees of veal piccata and grilled halibut were excellent as well. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra music was a wonderful addition to the experience. I can’t wait to return in spring when I can dine in their outdoor garden.“

“Visited Bar Louie on a Tuesday with my 19 year old son. We both enjoyed our meal as well as the service from our waiter. He looks like “Post Malone” lolI had a mushroom & asparagus flatbread and my son had a four-cheese flatbread. I ordered a happy hour Martini that my waiter recommended…WAKE UP CALL!It was delicious and perfect because I asked my waiter to recommend a drink that wasn’t too sweet. He nailed it! Want to go back and have another one! This Bar Louie is right in the middle of Beale Street which is a great environment with a variety of great places to eat, drink & shop!“

“The food was below par but everything else was great. I got a table right away and was served by Kaitlyn. If you are able to request being in her section, do it! I was never worried about waiting to oder and when I did, my drink came very soon after. I got the garlic French dip and I think it's over priced for how little good lean meat you get. A few bites had too chewy of fat. Half of the homemade chips were crispy so that was nice, but I would've loved every chip to be able to break in half and not bend.Still, you should go and give this place a shot!“

“Just finished dinner and it was great. Our waitress was wonderful as was the bus boy. I had the bacon lettuce & tomato sandwich with fries and a cup of their wonderful potato soup. Wish I had gotten the bowl it was so good. I'll know better next time to get the bowl. Plus we shared an order of potato skins which were also very good. Highly recommed their food and service.“

“Cobalt is a very unique experience. The drinks were incredible. You can tell they put a lot of care in the development of the cocktails. The food was really good, but what I loved the most is that she allowed us to go at our own pace. We never felt rushed. We will definitely be going back.“

“Great atmosphere with fast and professional service.Went for brunch and the food came out very quickly. Almost too quickly, in fact. Leads me to believe everything I ate was made in advance and had been sitting around. The waffles were completely cold and soggy and the chicken lost all of its crispiness. The chicken itself was high quality, though. Wish it had been made to order.6.3/10 Clucks. Potential for much higher if it was fresh.“

“We had dinner here before seeing a show in Kirkwood. This was our first time eating here and loved it! I have to eat gluten free so had the salmon and it was delicious!! My fiancé had the pasta with clams and said it was really good too. I would recommend eating here whenever you're looking for a nice place for dinner!“

“Great place to eat after a visit to the art museum or walk in the park just minutes away. Food & drinks were good. First time having brisket toasted ravioli. There is a nice fireplace in the middle. We watched some of the ducks & other birds on the water. Indoor & outdoor seating. You can rent paddle boards & wake boards here.“

“Winslow's Table absolutely deserves 5 stars. One of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had; eggs cooked perfectly, crunchy hash browns and bacon, fresh tortilla and the perfect amount of heat in the hot sauce. Espresso had a nice layer of crema, smooth, no acidity. Very friendly staff and nice seating indoors and outdoors.“

“Ice & Fuel is my go-to spot for what I feel is the best burger in STL. The cooked-to-order freshness is outstanding. With fresh, crisp vegetables and sides, it's hard to beat. If your cardiologist is more forgiving than mine, get a side of onion rings! Drinks are cheaper than most places and the pours are perfect. The staff is always courteous and attentive. Frequent visits and you'll be remembered - that's a great part of going here. My one complaint: It is loud. Very loud. Between 5 and 7 you're probably not going to have a few cocktails and catch up with friends. If yelling people is your thing, you'll love it! Overall Ice & Fuel is a great, underrated beer and burger joint. Check it out!“

“Old school bar/restaurant! Smell of cigs and cold beer can get any better reminds me of childhood because I was born in 70's Wed and Saturday the best fried chicken you ever ate! You get mashed potatoes and green beans. The fried mushrooms are bomb with the horseradish dip. Cheeseburger is strong! The Willy onion rings are fabulous. It ain't fancy but the food/cold drinks are the main attraction. Sits by a train track hear the whistle! Service is fast and friendly! Family owned.“

“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.“

“Loaded was sooooo good! My husband and I got the split tray of crab Rangoon and bbq nachos and oh my goodness they were so good. I would drive 4.5 hr again to eat here!!! They have a large selection and next time I want to try the dessert nachos!“
