“My sandwich when I got home! 🤯🤢🤮“

“Enjoyed Sunday Brunch!!!!“

“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).“

“Great food, great people, great atmosphere.“

“Had a great time. Our meals were great. Two of us had pancakes with strawberries. One had the Old Timers and the other had new Cinnamon rolls skillet. That skillet was amazing. Waiter was very attentive and made sure we had what we needed.“

“Delicious food, attentive service, and cozy ambiance. Highly recommended for a delightful mea“

“Our visit in arnold was great. I didn't remember to take pictures until halfway through our meal. We had no wait to be seated. Our waitress was great, very attentive to the right amount. We always enjoy eating at Applebee's!
The atmosphere is always relaxed. You can tell they are working with an older restaurant, but it's pretty clean every time we've visited.
The last few times, they haven't had Cucumber for the Salads which is a downside for me but it wont keep me from coming back.“

“If you haven’t been to Cellar House yet, you’re missing out. It’s one of those rare spots that feels like a hidden gem — honestly surprised it wasn’t busier on a Friday night.
The bourbon selection is excellent, and they went above and beyond by making a custom Chinese Manhattan for us that wasn’t even on the menu. That kind of flexibility and attention to detail really stands out.
The food is clean, straightforward, and very well executed. The ahi sliders were perfectly seared — wouldn’t change a thing. The fries were crispy, clearly cooked in clean oil, and seasoned just right, paired with a bright, well-balanced aioli. The rigatoni had vibrant, developed flavors — highly recommend keeping it as is without adding meat. It holds its own.
Service was exceptional. We stayed about 30 minutes past closing catching up with a friend and never felt rushed. In fact, they offered another round. That level of hospitality is rare.
The patio ambiance deserves its own mention — relaxing, tucked away, and surprisingly peaceful despite being near a busy road. It’s the perfect spot to sip a bourbon or enjoy a glass of wine and unwind.
They rotate their menu seasonally, and you can tell they genuinely care about what they’re doing.
No notes, no requests — just a great experience all around. From a customer, a chef, and someone who needed a solid night to relax… thank you.“

“Heather our waitress was fantastic. Service was good. Food was so wonderful . I highly recommend it“

“Good Food, and a great time!!“

“The meals and service at Frankie Gs are always top notch and today was no exception. Me friend ordered the reuben sandwich and commented how good the marbled rye bread was as well as the flavor of the corned beef. I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap and asked the kitchen to add jalapenos. The wrap came out as ordered and was delicious. One negative: It was a cold day and supplies were being delivered through the back door. Everytime the back door opened freezing air blasted into the dining area. It might be helpful to put an intermediate door on the back hallway that could be closed during deliveries.“

“We always have great food and great service!“

“1st time there had to try their St Louis Style Pizza. It was very good. Great service.“

“fabulous place, food was great, friendly atmosphere!“

“This is such a great place to hang out with friends. Great food and friendly service. We always enjoy karaoke on Friday nights with Beth the KJ. Love that it’s non smoking!“

“Every table was full which is to be expected on Valentine’s Day and mardi gra on a Saturday. I was impressed with the staff. Everyone seemed to be operating smooth, busy, but smooth. There were older white women and a black women. I can’t express enough how great it was to watch them work together and so efficiently!“

“2nd time here while passing through with a crew I oversee and thought I'd buy them lunch. Had the steak sandwich again it's once again. delicious. Same chef as last time. Waitress, girl with black pigtails, sorry (forgot your name) was friendly and attentive.

Might be known as a biker bar but delivers in other areas.“

“Food is always amazing with the best service. We have never been disappointed!!“

“My favorite place to grab a bite to eat or drink after my Mt. Bike ride at Cliff Cave .“

“Great pinball bar!! The selection of pinball games is excellent. Bartender was a little to boisterous, but still nice. We went on a Saturday night, it was dead... let me tell you why. Karaoke, and it was HORRIBLE. Not that having karaoke is horrible, it's the few people that were there that couldn't sing. You could tell it was a few regulars and that's what is keeping more people from coming. We left because it was so bad. Will definitely be back though when no karaoke is going on“

“Our family loves every visit to Frankie Gianino's. They have excellent staff, great food, and family friendly prices.“

“I’m here to say one thing, go see Nina. That’s all you need to know.

Not only is she one of the most incredibly beautiful bartenders you’ll meet in your entire life (trust me, I’ve met plenty) she also has the best personality AND attention to service.

Your drink will never be empty and you’ll always leave with a smile, that’s truly unmatchable.“

“this place is a hole in the wall that's been here forever. it's what you would expect and then some. great for karaoke opens at 6:00 a.m. for breakfast and drinks been going there for years and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. keno and lotto“

“We went there as out of towners from Indiana. We had the strip steak sandwich, with waffle fries . It was Great! Nice atmosphere , the food was really good. It was a full house , our waitress Grace was busting butt and still gave us great service. The staff was really nice. We asked for a table , then changed our minds and wanted a booth instead, and the staff still was really nice about it. I give 5 stars.“

“Went through the drive thru and was told to pull around to a parking spot as our wedges were not quite done. 16 minutes later, as I'm heading inside to find out what in the world is taking so long, he was heading out with our food. I had requested a couple lives for my dogs, which they have often given them at the drive thru in the past, and he said he'd have to check to see how generous, I guess the manager, was feeling. When he brought out the food, I asked snotty the livers and he said, I'm sorry, I forgot to ask. So, I asked him to go check, after waiting this long, is how they were feeling generous! They were, they actually gave me quite a few! That makes my dogs very happy and therefore I'm very happy. Plus the food was very good, and hot! We had the 12 piece tenders meal, it was all very tasty, my husband really liked their baked beans! So, besides the wait time, everything was great! Would recommend and we will be back!“

“I just needed to add one of my favorite servers! I have been going more because of Haley! She is phenomenal! Please keep her around! Haley was patient, nice, and funny! She made sure to check on me every chance she got! Thanks again, Haley!“

“I'm sorry but so disappointed with my to go order. Wings look good, chicken tenders look okay but for the price I wish I would have just sucked it up and made my own. My biggest complaint is 9 for cheese garlic bread that looks like it was discards from someone else's meal. I have 3 pieces that have red sauce on them. So dry and not good. I'm not one to complain but seriously, it's so cheap. Make it fresh.“

“Sweet food and drinks with very pretty bunns..love them“

“This has been my favorite restaurant to eat at since I was a child. My grandma would take me to the Chippewa and Hampton location but that location no longer exists. So I live in Fenton now for 20+ years and I've been coming to this location since them opening in Gravois Bluffs. The food is usually on point.. Always fresh and hot. The staff is always hit and miss. They, alot of times, seem like they don't even want to be there. The very last time I ate there though the staff was scarce and the food wasn't the best. The waitress barely listened to our order. She first brought us the wrong food. Then it took an additional 40 mins to get our order. We ended up leaving after being there for almost 2 hours. The restaurant wasn't even busy. So I love the food but service needs to step up for sure.“
