Food was just Ok for the pricing, they didn’t sear the duck fat so it was gelatinous and chewy…

Amazing happy hour. The food and drinks incredible.

Stayed at the hotel and had amazing avocado toast breakfast. Beautiful decor and friendly service.

Me and my husband went here for our 10th Valentine’s Day dinner (we came on 2/15). We didn’t realize it was inside of the Chase Park Plaza, but we did not mind. We are older millennials and loved it. The food is incredibly novel and full of flavor. I found that the food was cooked reasonably in that I didn’t feel full and disgusting after eating, I felt comfortable and light (aka, food wasn’t saturated in butter like a lot of restaurants do).
I have no idea why this has 4.1 stars, I have very high standards for food and this place was shockingly good... more like 5.5 stars!!! Service was excellent too. The servers are on their game.
I highly recommend their signature beet salad (truly, the best salad I have ever had in my life) And the lobster bisque Is the best lobster bisque my husband has ever had, and he too has very high standards for food. I ordered the chicken entree, which was absolutely amazing. My husband ordered a burger and they actually cooked it medium rare for him like he requested.
We will be back!

Went here Xmas eve after mass at the new cathedral, (Basilica). It was one of only two places available online to book last minute on Xmas eve, so had low expectations! It was a wonderful surprise! Food was delicious and the server was totally professional and working hard! It still had a few empty tables the entire time we were there! I almost don't want to share this good review because I think we'll make this a tradition! The Chase looks gorgeous at Christmas and it was super festive to be there, great for pictures! The decor in the restaurant is lovely, minus the horrible chairs! They don't go with the classy subtle vibe. Total fail by the designer! If they had better chairs the whole place would look higher end! Also has a beautiful big wooden bar along the one wall, which could be a better focal point! Not sure why this place isn't more popular! I recommend it.

Awful syrup on top of avocado toast. A simple vinaigrette would have otherwise done the job nicely.

Been here for breakfast 4-5 times while I syaed at the hotel. Food is pretty good, atmosphere is fine, but the service is pretty bad. Will commonly not have your order taken for 20 minutes or greater, with food taking even longer to reach the table. Appears to be a staffing issue, a mixture of lack of people and the current employs dont care.

Stayed at the hotel for several days for a conference. Food is meh. Service leaves a lot to be desired. Stopped by tonight to grab a glass of wine and the hostess said I would have to come back in 20 minutes because they couldn’t let anyone else in for a while. Hmmmm…there were SEATS OPEN AR THE BAR!!! Sadly, I doubt this restaurant will make it. Mediocre food and bad service never do!

We arrived promptly at five when they were to open, and had to wait a few minutes for service. Our waiter was obviously pressured as he was the bartender and the waiter. He did work hard, running around taking care of everyone, but it was obvious that the restaurant was understaffed and he had a bit of an attitude, but softened a little during the course of the meal. All in all I have to give it a just ok.

We walked in on a Friday evening and the restaurant was empty. We should have walked back out. The waiter was good and engaging, but not overly knowledgeable. The appetizers were very good, but the entrees were terrible. Hamburgers were very thin and overcooked to what was ordered and the buns were dry. The Sole was okay, but not very favorable. Just not an enjoyable meal at all.
The food, without exaggeration, was exceptional. We went with classic French dishes Coq au Vin and Croque Monsieur. We also had the beet salad and a cream of mushroom soup. All we're perfect, as was the wild mushroom appetizer.
Our server was also our bartender, which slowed things a bit. Here's the bummer: the place was empty on a Saturday night!
Additionally, the few people there weren't really dressed for the price point, but that makes some sense given it's the more laid back dinner option at the Chase. Still, this probably isn't a "special event" place, given that some of the patrins chose this over going out and getting dressed.
The prices are pretty low considering the quality of ingredients and the menu in general.
One more little tidbit in case the manager reads this: Stop putting french fries in metal cones and dousing them with truffle powder. It doesn't make them fancy. It makes them worse and looks stupid.

The service was horrible. We how to reservation and we're told to sit down and somebody would seat us, while other people just walked up and went right in. When they finally seated us, we had to ask for our waiter.... we had to ask literally for every single thing, including waving down a waiter after having been seated with no water or coffee etc. Then every step of the way through the meal we had to ask over and over again. Cream please? A tiny amount of cream came 5 minutes after we got coffee, and then had to ask for more and wait longer. Ask for butter with our meal. When it didn't come we asked for it to be delivered, and then a tiny amount of butter arrived, and then we had to ask for more and wait for it to come, all after the food was no longer warm. We had to ask for more water, you name it. When we asked 4 butter the last time we asked for the bill, and he went to go get the bill before the butter.
We went to a 1904 World's Fair dinner cosponsered with the Missouri History Museum. The food was good, the drinks were good & the customer service was great. The staff was so hospitable. We loved it.

The 1904 World's Fair dinner held jointly with the MIssouri Historical Society was OUTSTANDING. I would like the Executive Chef, and all the other chefs to know we appreciated their enthusiasm for the dishes they created. We would attend a dinner like this again in a heartbeat. I know the Preston does wine dinners, but we preferred the signature drinks served with each course. Not everyone is a wine aficionado, and the signature drinks are much more fun.

Awesome night of custom cocktails and wine paired with multiple courses of excellent food. Halibut , pork belly , duck dogs, salad, chicken, etc. the chefs and St Louis Historical society did a tremendous job presenting 1904 Worlds Fair experience for everyone.
