Love the music here. Everything else could be improved. Tables are set really close together, even the “premium” seating. It takes over an hour for food to come out. About 30 minutes after we ordered food, we were told 5 more minutes. It took like 25 more. A Tostino”s style pizza cost $20. After first drinks were ordered, it took over 20 minutes for them to arrive. Once they went dry (and we nursed our drinks), I finally went to the bar to try to order another. Our server saw me there and asked if I needed anything. So after ordering from her, those drinks came much faster. This place could make so much more money if they actually checked on people more often. The only reason I return is the intimate atmosphere with amazing musicians. Do the rest better!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Blue Strawberry.

Great intimate venue for live music. Nice cocktails. Food needs work.

I heard the award winning Boseman Twins Band and they were phenomenal! The atmosphere has a nice vibe, good drinks and nice food ! Great for a night out on the town in St. Louis.

Music is always good. They do a great job bringing in local and excellent talent. Its a lovely smaller venue, sound is great, special cocktails and wine is good. Unfortunately their food selection is good, but some of it os Not good. French fries are some of the best!! Do not get the seafood ravioli, its not cooked like a a pasta ravioli, it's flash fried or something.... Salads are decent. It takes quite some time to get food because their kitchen is small. They are goinf to make a larger kitchen.

Great venue! We had a private show there and the staff was on point. Quite possibly the easiest team to work with. Katie was phenomenal, as what your tech guy. The bartenders and kitchen staff were all so friendly and polite. We stuck around for karaoke after which was also pretty great!

Great mix of talented people on Karaoke night

The food was good and came fast and hot. But it is fairly expensive. Also strange to watch a show while servers kept working and people were eating and drinking like it's a restaurant, which it is. The show I attended was also excellent and the sound is great.
This music venue is perfect for mature adults. The Motown Review group was excellent. Unfortunately the table service was way too slow. Our server Diane was clearly overworked. The assistant manager Anthony tried to seat us in the back and our ticket clearly said first come first served.

Purchased two premium tickets to see Emmaline for a date night with my woman back in August, showed up for the even last Friday night only to find that they had overbooked and they tried sitting us in an area that had absolutely no view of the stage. Ended up leaving before the event started. Still have not received a refund on my two premium tickets. Was completely disappointed with the entire experience and would not recommend this to anyone.

I loved this place the venue awesome, the food was not good and the service was nice but really slow the pasta was way over cooked and there ice in my drink melted before it got to my table. But I would come back to watch a show but I wouldn't order much next time.

Unbelievable performances on Wednesdays by local talent.

The performance we saw today was phenomenal, easily worth the ticket price and then some. Unfortunately, the dining experience dragged the afternoon down.
The show was sold out, and it looked like the management decided to squeeze in every possible table to maximize profit. The result? A packed room where guests had to shimmy sideways just to reach their seats.
To make matters worse, there appeared to be only one waitress handling half the room - about 40 people - with minimal help. She was clearly working as fast as humanly possible, but the wait times reflected the impossible workload. It took ages just to get our non-alcoholic drinks, and we never received or were asked about refills during the entire two-hour show.
Food service was equally slow. We weren’t even asked for our dinner order until nearly an hour in, and it arrived another 30 minutes later. My pesto fettuccine was unfortunately a miss - overcooked noodles and a sauce so salty it was hard to enjoy.
I don’t fault the staff: they were doing their best under impossible circumstances. This one’s on management. For a sold-out show, there should have been more servers and better spacing between tables. The talent deserves a top-tier experience, and so do the guests.
If you go for the entertainment (and you should), eat beforehand.
