Polite Society Restaurant and Bar

It's rare that a restaurant hits fully on every single dish. This is one of those experiences where everything was so good I couldn't pick one dish over another. Yes. It's that good.

The deviled eggs with pan fried capers... amazing.
Salt Roasted Beets with fennel and apple... wow.
Roasted Rabbit with Acorn Squash and Mushrooms... just so good.
Seared Scallops... will definitely be back for more.
Cheech cocktail with mezcal and amaro... wonderful smoky bitters cocktail.
We then asked for a similar cocktail and got one the bartender made up there that was smoky bitter and mildly chocolatey. Yum.

Fantastic service. Cozy beautiful atmosphere in an old building across from the park.

Easily one of the best restaurants in St Louis.

Wow. Wow. What can you say? This place from the service, to the atmosphere and ultimately the food is amazing. This was a great neighborhood restaurant where you see people walking their dogs as you enjoy the food. The absolute must is the Crispy Broccolini. It was so amazing we ordered a follow up order. The salmon had crispy skin, the Pork Osso Bucco was falling off the bone, Pumpkin Pesto Ravioli was fresh, it was all excellent. Service was great as well. This is the place to go to relax and enjoy a meal with family. A must go if you are in the area

Come here regularly when in town for work. Staff is extremely friendly. The manager running the front of the restaurant is super attentive and very considerate.

They noticed I spilled sauce in my shirt, immediately came by with soda water and a clean rag so I could clean myself up. This isn’t service you get at 99% of restaurants.

The menu rotates periodically and is always fantastic. There is a great wine list and cocktail list. I highly recommend stopping here no matter the occasion.

Vegetarian options: Many appetizers are vegetarian and a few dishes have the option to be vegetarian upon request.

The food here is amazing. The carpaccio is solid and the crispy broccolini is perfectly seasoned. Both great appetizers. Osso buco was beautiful and the Bistro Steak cooked to perfection. Great specialty cocktails.
