New American Restaurants near Florissant, MO

“We were in attendance for Monthly Girlfriend luncheon. Only 1 of us 4 had visited Hendel's in the distant past and she chose the restaurant. You don't see a lot of truly warm and cozy restaurants nestled within the neighborhood that's prospered. The food was good and service was excellent and as we have visited restaurants month after months, it's obvious that cooks aren't same. There is space for indoor & outdoor eating with limited parking. Nice afternoon luncheon experience ?Parking: Free parking in rear where u have a short walk from vehicle into establishment, but if full being that it's sitting in residential area, one can park on side street, no meters, & without inconveniencing residents.Kid-friendliness: Kids were running around where we sat indoors but no one seemed disturbed by their antics ?“

“"From the moment I stepped into The Crossing in Clayton, I knew I was in for a remarkable dining experience. The exceptional service began with Sunny, who skillfully handled my reservation, and continued with David's warm welcome at the door. My server, Joshua, was simply outstanding, ensuring that my visit was nothing short of perfect.What truly set this experience apart was the meticulous attention to dietary restrictions for both me and my guests. It's rare to find a restaurant that genuinely cares and accommodates with such grace.The meal was unforgettable, leaving me talking about it for weeks. But the cherry on top was a chance encounter with Joseph on the sidewalk days later. His genuine follow-up about my experience showcased a level of care and knowledge that is unparalleled in the industry.The Crossing in Clayton is not just a restaurant; it's an experience where the staff goes above and beyond, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking culinary excellence and exceptional service."“

“Really nice spot to grab lunch. Service was amazing. Very cheery and great spirited wait staff. Veggie Sandwich, Mushroom Asparagus soup and of course the key lime pie was very delicious. The ambience was great. Highly recommend coming here for a bite if you are visiting Alton.“

“OH MY GOD THE STUDS TASTES BETTER ON DRAFT. If you love Fitz soda then you HAVE to come here. The BBQ pulled pork was delicious and the floats are the real attraction. Would give food a 3.5 if I could but typing on a phone so yeah. It's not that the food is bad. It's just doesn't quite live up to the price point in my opinion“

“I must have come on an off day, but my eggs Benedict was not good. The hollandaise was broken, and one of the eggs was undercooked. The sourdough bread was fantastic, and the cappuccino was delicious. The potatoes and salad on the side was fine. I would come back but get a different entree. The person next to me got pancakes and they looked delicious.“

“Really yummy :)) everybody inside was friendly and welcoming in a very genuine way that makes you feel very cared for. The ribs were soo well cooked and the pulled pork was tender (reminds me of being home w my dad who always makes ribs for us). I always love mac & cheese but especially here. The atmosphere has a really sweet/homey feel, definitely recommend going“

“Greeted immediately upon entering by friendly staff. Service was great, food cooked to perfection. ?? Atmosphere had a great vibe. Compliments to the bartender on the Drinks. They were great as well. Overall, great first-time experience. Will definitely be back to try more options on the menu.“

“We have been going to Gentelin's for about 10 years and the food is consistently excellent. My wife and I were there last night and we both had the filet mignon. I also ordered a crab stuffed portabella mushroom to complement my steak. Talk about YUM! Ryan is the owner and chef, and he takes personal ownership in maintaining the outstanding quality of the food. He also has a special talent of bringing together the right ingredients to make each menu item wonderful. A recent example is the Crabmeat Stuffed Chicken - to die for! The salads are also very good and they offer a $5.00 appetizer from time to time, last night's was Philly Cheesesteak wontons, yummy and very creative! The food always comes out in a timely manner and is always the right temperature. They also have a very good beer, wine, and drink selection too. Ryan has assembled a GREAT team and Beth is our regular server. She is outstanding, professional, and very attentive to our needs. We have had other servers when Beth isn't there and they too are top notch. The restaurant offers a beautiful view of the Mississippi river for added ambience. So if you are in Alton and looking for great food, Gentelin's is the place for you!“

“Very efficient ordering system. The line is to go to the counter and order your meal. Once you’ve ordered, you will be seated and your meal will be brought your table.Food quality was excellent. We enjoyed a novel quiche , and a large portion of avocado toast.The desserts are on display as you are waiting to order, and we were tempted by a chocolate caramel pastry with a nut crust.Parking is easy, and prices are reasonable.“

“Our first visit to Alton, IL and my wife and I found State Street Market. The food is fantastic, Erin served us and her recommendations were spot on for our tastes. We both had the BLT and Avocado sandwich. The portions were very generous. Took some asparagus and mushroom soup home. We live in St Charles, but will visit often. Hope we see you soon, Erin.“

“Adrien was absolutely amazing. If I could give 10 stars I would. The atmosphere was so welcoming so fun, so St Louis I’m from Chicago and we pride ourselves on having the best food in the country. What they got going on here SLAPS ??? I will be back.“

“We were visiting from out of town and not used to everything closing early so we came in around 9p and even though the kitchen had closed they prepared our meal with smiles and the very best attitude. Our server was excellent and the meal was absolutely delicious like melt in your mouth OMG delicious! and the drinks were top notch also.If we were local we would be here all the time.“

“The Avenue came highly recommended and lived up to its reputation. I joined my siblings for lunch here. The staff was friendly and attentive. The lunch menu was expansive and delicious. I recommend the pear cocktail and manhattan winter. W enjoyed the French on Mon soup, beet salad, penne with mushrooms, schnitzel sandwich, and classic creme bruise.“

“I have been to this place a few times and it's been consistently good. They have a great ambiance and service. We tried the 4 pork gnocchi and the spicy shrimp diablo. Both the dishes were very good. We tried a few of their cocktails - a few different Mezcal cocktails and it was good. They have happy hour every day from 3-6 PM. For dessert, we had the beignets. It lived up to the expectations!“

“The food was different. Not exactly the pizza I expected, especially for the price. Some of the pineapples tasted iffy. The salad was an excellent mix of greens and chicken. Some cheese would have nice. You line up to order, and they bring your food to the table AND still expect a tip. It's pretty much the same service as many fast food places. It was nice to have real utensils and napkins. That was a good touch. The dining room was neat and mostly clean. Some of the staff were very friendly and some....not so much.Parking: Even after the rush, parking was sparse.Wheelchair accessibility: It is.“

“This is definitely a hidden gem that is a must go to! It is set in an old building with natural hardwood floors and a view of the river. Beautiful quilts are hung throughout and the restaurant is meticulously clean! The staff were constantly cleaning tables and keeping on top of everything. The Pulled Pork Sandwich was tender and flavorful. The Turkey Club was absolutely delicious with fresh lettuce and tomatoes. We had the Turtle Pie and Toll House Brownies for dessert which were both incredible. A table near us had carrot cake and it looked amazing too! Our service was also great! Everyone was very friendly!“

“It was a busy night but our server was very attentive. The food was delicious and at the end of the meal the server brought my friend a birthday dessert. We didn't mention it was her birthday but she must have over heard us talking about. What a charming place.“

“Delicious catfish and spaghetti served hot and fresh in clean space with comfortable patio seating. Nice strong drinks. Terrific, fast and personable service. Mature crowd, great throwback music; no thundercats makes for pleasant atmosphere.“

“These people here can cook! I was visiting from Colorado and this is all I ate while in St Louis. The prices are resonalbleand the food is plentiful and tasty!! (Don't forget ya Vess soda) The area is a lil sketchy being right on off the Metrolink but we all family...its good ?“

“Aside from the carbonation machine not working (and I therefore couldn't get a Shirley Temple, nor my friend, her Cherry Coke), the food came out in a timely manner, our waiter was very polite and patient, and the prices were fair for the amount and quality of the food“
