“Longstanding "outer" Clayton restaurant with solid menu choices, especially for families with kiddos. My burger was prepared perfectly, and it was bigger than more well-known burger places. Fries were meh at best. Cokes tasted fresh, almost the way McDonald's nails the beverage department. Hadn't been there in years; hadn't changed in years; still a very solid, albeit low-key, experience.“

“What a menu! And you can also customize fresh ingredients into a salad or pizza. Was staying at a hotel nearby and wandered in for dinner solo. Delicious food and nice safe area. If I lived here I'd be here every week. I forgot to take a pic before but as you can I loved it ?.“

“Great little spot for Happy Hour drinks and for Dinner as well. Fast and friendly service with quality ingredients and delicious food! Our dinner party had the Wagyu burger, 4 Pork Gnocchi and Fish and Chips along with the Arugula & Asparagus salad. Everything was expertly prepared and amazing. Nice wine selections as well. Highly recommend. This is a cozy spot and on the weekends - you'll need dinner reservations.“

The Bear's Den American • $
WUSTL, Clayton

“This is a fine dining establishment, like seriously gourmet. While the culinary experience wavered in the wake of the global pandemic, this year has proved to me that the staff shows a real commitment to students. The only thing that could currently better butter my bread, so to speak, more effectively is if they reintroduced their fine chicken and waffle delicacy.“

“Had brunch at the bar. Courtney was friendly and very helpful as it was our first time here. Hubby's Kentucky hot brown was delicious and my burger and potatoes also! I kept dipping my potatoes and peppers in the béchamel sauce on the hot brown! Courtney also made a mean martini! Fantastic!“

“This was my first time visiting. We were in the area, and I had heard the name before. Our waitress was very friendly and had a sense of humor. He always was checking in on us to make sure we were satisfied. The atmosphere was nice and clean, basic bar/grill style. I appreciated the very wide ranged menu. There was something for just about anyone. We got some crayfish & crab cake appetizers that were mighty good. I got a seafood pasta that was loaded with seafood and was also tasty. My wife really enjoyed her sandwich. I would definitely come back again.“
