“Wow ! What a great place from the food to the decor as soon as you step just inside the door it screams Mexico. I used their event room all day for meetings. Liz and Dave took great care of me all day. Dave was my right hand man, I will be back.“
“Stopped in for St Patrick's Day, I had the Ruben, it was very delicious and cooked to perfection, the fries were really good too and so was the sampler platter. The service was very good and our server was very accommodating and lively. Music was a bit too loud for talking at the table, but other than that my experience was great!“
“I wanted to try a place I had never been too while on my work trip. The food was fantastic and there was so much of it too! I called in my order and was told a time frame of 20 minutes before my food was ready. When I went in the bartender was super quick to ask if I needed anything and quickly got my food order! If I’m back in this area again I will definitely eat here again!!!“
“Chain restaurant, so food isn’t anything too special to meDrinks are alright.Came here to see a show, service was good despite being so busy. Our server came by frequently enough and the bar helped in lineBeen to bars where they will help someone who came much later after you’ve been waiting. THAT makes me crazy“
“We had a family nite out and this was the perfect place. Some of the other people were dressed half naked which was inappropriate for a family restaurant.No employees at the front door checked out anything.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible to all“
“James, our server, made it a fun evening. The food as always, was perfect. We had the caprese with lobster salad to start. Light and tasty. Then we had the 12oz Australian Wagyu, cooked to perfection and just about as good as Japanese Wagyu for a lot less. Served sliced and placed in the middle. We love Wagyu and this is a special dish. We were thrilled they had it tonight. We also had the pasta special, spinach tagliatelle with shrimp and scallops and a cheesy delicious sauce with bacon, almost like a carbonara. Not ultra creamy but super good. Big shrimp and scallops. Finally we had the Truffle Mac and Cheese which is addicting and awesome. We brought some home for our grand daughter. Napoli 2 is a great restaurant.“
“So glad this place exists in St. Charles! The frozen cocktails are delicious and strong. Narwhal's has the best drinks out of all the frozen cocktail places I have been to which includes places in Colorado, Florida, and other places in Missouri. The 40oz fishbowl is totally worth it! You keep the fishbowl and if you bring it back then you get $5 off refills. The staff is knowledgeable about the ingredients in the drinks like what type of alcohol is in them, etc. They also let you taste flavors before ordering them! Overall Narwhal's is a fantastic place to get drinks!“
“Really solid neighborhood restaurant. The zucchini sticks were decent. The prime rub was just delicious and it came on a plate of jus. Nice old school dinner. Wife got the dolmades. Really good dinner.Definitely going to be back and regularly.“
“Wow! This place was soo cool. I found it via Google search for a good Cuban sandwich. I realized that I came here as a child when it was just a bar. The atmosphere is soo cool inside. The food is the best part though. The Cuban honestly did not impress me visually, but when I took a bite... oh my! The pork butt was soo good. My mom had the famous Picadilly fish. She wanted to try the Mayfair salad, but didn't want the whole salad so they made her a side salad with Mayfair dressing. They make this dressing in house and its amazing. I had a cup of Gumbo with my sandwich and it was soo good. I forgot to get a picture of it, but I have to believe it was homemade. I will definitely come back. You should come try it too.“
“Can be a little loud when they are busy. Food is good and you get lots, won't leave hungry.Parking: Depending on how busy they are, sometimes parking is not great. Restaurant shares parking with a convenience type store/sandwich shop, and I believe a laundromat around the corner.“
“I would put myself in debt to eat this food, It's so incredible the head chef is brilliant, and the staff from the front of the house to the back make the entire experience a joy. the wild boar and polenta is writing home about worthy, and the tirimisu makes me emotional... the pizza is literally the only pizza in st louis worth eating and I'm from Chicago so I feel like my opinion is extra valid lol. there are a ton of "fancy restaurants" in St. Louis but table cloths and wine selection don't mean crap when the menu of a reasonably priced pizza joint makes your food look like McDonald's by comparison.“
“The sandwich was really good and there was a lot of it. It cost a bit more than normal but there was a lot of it. The waitress was very nice and we got our food fast, even though the place was very busy. In short it was well worth the visit.“
“The breweries cellar serving up some of the best beers made in the world. With an ever changing draft list and an extensive bottle list from the cellar on top of the private and personal experience the small but unique space creates, you are bound to have a great experience. The staff is great and incredibly knowledgeable.In addition my favorite experiences are the multiple special events they have a year serving up their more limited beers.“
“Decent venue, bathrooms pretty clean, seating nice. Alcohol is served here. They have metal detectors in use so if you have anything that can be possibly be used as a weapon, leave it in your car or you will have to make a trip back to your car.“
“Best bar in Saint Louis.The concept is great, only quality Lagers, in a bar with a welcoming, family atmosphere.What more ?The Lagers that were offered, from local and international breweries, were all great, but we especially remembered the milk pours, the spaghetti cocktail and the Malort shots.The manager is super nice too, and we meet great people there.“
“I ordered tonight for carry out and there was a small hiccup (no biggie) with our order they called right away to fix it. Picked up our meatball sub, a Naples pizza, a create your own, and garlic bread. This food was delicious, I’ve never had such a amazing white pizza (no red sauce) in my life. The meatballs were so tender and my picky kid ate all but one! The garlic cheese bread didn’t last long here it’s as good as home made (maybe better). We will definitely return and recommend. I hope next time we can dine it, from what I saw they have a pretty large dining room that can accommodate a nice crowd. The employees were incredibly friendly and warm. Loved the entire experience!“
“I’m giving everything five stars because the food and beer were good and the staff excellent, save one a-hole manager. Basically we were there on a busy running club night, and as a family of 4 having just arrived to St. Louis looking for dinner, we popped into Heavy Riff to give it a try. We waited in line with everyone else at the “front counter” and a lovely female bartender waited on us and let us know we could grab a table and then she’d help us on the side of the bar where it’d be less hectic for us to order (since we had kids in tow). This was very thoughtful and accommodating of her in the masses of young runners. We met her there and she offered great advice on what to order for kids (spice levels) and as a vegetarian. We were about halfway through ordering when Rick (I got his name later since he ruined the vibe of our experience) butted in and told her she was supposed to be taking orders at the front counter not side bar (about 4 feet away) and said she had to get back there. By his command she had to leave us hanging to wait for the “proper” bartender to take our order which was a few minutes later. He didn’t offer to help. Meanwhile as the staff was slammed with orders this Rick jerk just stood in the back and reined over the staff. He didn’t lift a finger. Even later when I went to settle the tab at the bar he stood at his throne position in the back scrolling, messaging on his phone. (Super unprofessional) I was standing right next to him and he didn’t ask if he could help me. I sure hope Rick isn’t the owner because if he is I would hope employees would quit. Rather, to the owner, it is time to find yourself a new manager as Rick is useless and frankly ruined the good energy we had going. I felt for the staff that had to deal with his power trip. Though we are staying fairly close by, we won’t be back.“
“It was my first time at Maggianos and Angela was our server. She had excellent service and was attentive. Their Irish coffee was really good and their take home entrees are being enjoyed now. Very glad to have had the experience that Angela provided.“
“Our first time here and it was great! Our server Genesis was sweet, bubbly, and attentive. The food was fantastic! Had burrata salad (off menu special), the Tiger rolls, and brisket dipper. Other than the au jus being a little too salty (which is prob normal, I don’t like things that are too salty) would eat it all again it was so good! And the servings are huge, we have enough leftovers for two more meals. The cocktails were also terrific- it’s hard to find a Vieux Carré outside the French Quarter but they make a good one! Sazarac was also delicious. Will be recommending this place to others and will definitely be back!“
“This place is one of my favorite places! They are welcoming and inviting! Steak is always seasoned to perfection. We have been celebrating our life accomplishments at this location for over 15 years and we are never disappointed! Reservations are a must and great for a romantic ambiance, special birthday dinner, and other occasions.“
“Tried this restaurant yesterday. Had a reservation for Valentine’s Day. The food was really good and the waiter was nice. The restaurant wasn’t really crowded when we got there and we still had to wait. The table we got was a high top by the bar, would have preferred a booth or other table in the dining area but all in all it was a good experience. I’d go back for another steak, it was delicious.Dietary restrictions: Peanut free facilityParking: Lots of spots“
“Stopped in on a whim Friday Night because I see the place off Page Extension all the time. Glad I did, the atmosphere of this place fits my style. Chill, with nice friendly staff and patrons. Annie and Eve behind the bar are so cool. Tried a pickle shot for the first time in my life, awesome, who knew! I think I will move right down the street so I can be closer. See you soon.“
“Had lunch today. Chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes and green beans as my sides for a lunch special. $ 9.95 The chicken fried steak was cooked to perfection and green Breana were so good best even. The service was fast and friendly. Great neighborhood bar.“
“Came on with no reservation and was sat right away. Amelia gave us wonderful and quick service but I feel she went above and beyond making multiple suggestions that made our experience even better. The staff was friendly and helpful, overall we enjoyed for a quick last minute weekday dinner!“
“We stayed at the Cheshire hotel and were fortunate to have Basso on the premises! We met a friend here the first night of our stay. The restaurant is in the basement. The atmosphere was inviting with gas lit wall lights, a center bar with booths and high tops. Autumn was a wonderful server. She was so pleasant and informative. We really enjoyed having her as our server. Happy hour is from 4 to 6. We tried the fried meatballs, which were great. The lemon ravioli and the shrimp pasta dish were both delicious. Prices were reasonable. When you dine, the food taste and quality are top priority, but when the food is phenomenal and the service and atmosphere are just as good, it makes the experience memorable. We ended up returning on our second night! Julie was our server and we really enjoyed her, too. She was helpful and interested in our satisfaction! We tried the Brussel sprouts, an heirloom salad with delicious bread. Our entrees were the butcher steak and the burger. The steak was wood fired and super tender! The burger was delicious. The fries and shishito peppers were very good. We highly recommend this hidden gem and thank Autumn and Julie for making our stay in St. Louis so memorable! Oh, try the Secret Door specialty drink, a next level Old Fashioned“
“We hosted a surprise birthday party for my fiancé at the Rec Hall's private room and it was a perfect space! The room was huge and even had its own outdoor portion for guests to use as well which we did not know about at first! The private room had ample table space for setting up food and tables/chairs/couches for guests to lounge and eat at along with its own private games as well. We really enjoyed using the two tvs to display a photo slideshow and a big bluetooth speaker to play music which were all provided already in the booking package. In addition to the private room being a great space for everyone, what really impressed my guests and I were how attentive and friendly the staff were! They attended to the guests for drinks constantly and helped us with setting up for the event as well as answering any questions we had at the time. They all provided great customer service and were always quick to help when we wanted to order more pizza for example. Everyone had a great time and we will all definitely be back!“
“Tried one of the RFT's top 5 that has the distinction of having been honored multiple times for serving the best St. Louis-style pizza in the region — without actually using Provel. It had a great crust, the cheese and toppings were good, too. It was ok, but you couldn't taste the sauce. I would definitely try again and ask for more sauce.“
“Food tasty, service was attentive and the prices were manageable. A nice neighborhood bar for a meal. Our waitress was exceptionally nice and met our every request with a smile. She was really busy and seemed happy. There were two other waitresses who seemed a lot on edge. There were two bus boys who helped during the evening. All in all a fun experience.“
“Great bar to enjoy delicious pizza and drinks and play a wide variety of pinball. The owners are awesome and always there to make sure their machines are in tip-top shape, and it's CLEAN!!! If you enjoy pinball, you should consider joining their league! Everyone there is friendly and welcoming. Their sister bar (The Silverballroom) is a must visit too!“
“Chris was our server and did an amazing job with checking in with us during our meal, which enhanced the quality of the service even more! Bar Louie St. Charles is me and my BFF favorite hang out spot to decompress from the hustle and bustle of life. We appreciate the service and quality food they offer!“
“What an absolutely divine bar. My husband, brother-in-law, and myself popped in here for a couple of late night cocktails while walking around St. Charles. Kubrick’s was extremely welcoming, wonderfully decorated, and they even had fun drinks of the month. I have a deep appreciation for the aesthetic of this spot, and the bartender was extremely friendly. Please do keep in mind that if you do not like cigarette smoke, this place may not be for you, as smoking is allowed inside. We will definitely be back when we are in Missouri again next year, visiting my in-laws for the holiday!“
“Had a great experience around 6:30pm on Friday night. It was pretty busy with a line to the door, however, the only reason the wait seemed long was because I was hungry and the menu looked so good! When we got to the front counter we were greeted by a nice, very hard working female. Food came quick after we ordered! My husband and I shared the Locoz fries with asada. This was my personal favorite. The fries were nice and crispy (not soggy at all). I loved the pico on the fries as well as their special sauce! Great ratio of steak, cheese, sauce, pico, etc. we also shared three gringo tacos (tinga, pastor, Camaron). My favorite was the pastor and my husband's favorite was the camaron which is shrimp. Beware, these tacos are messy ! Grab lots of napkins. The last thing we ordered was a side of esquites. It wasn't my favorite version of esquites but it was pretty tasty. I think next time I would have topped my tacos with it or tried a different side Next time I want to try either a quesadilla or burrito. They looks AMAZING!! Both big and cheesy!! They also have bottled drinks. I'm not a big beverage fan but this always excites my husband. He got a grapefruit Jarrito (picture of the beverage menu are listed with a picture of the cooler) Parking was hard on a Friday night. We parked across the street in the schnucks parking lot but there is also street parking“
“The most legit perfect “hole in the wall” bar I have ever been to! Heavy pours, family owned and operated! Service is pure perfection! AllAround great atmosphere! Perfect place to drink, feel welcomed, and awesome place to meet good people! Conversations are fun, witty and always interesting/ entertaining!“
“Our plane had issues so we had to stay overnight and we found this place. Hands down, the best atmosphere, and food around. You just have to experience it for yourself. ??❤️ Hospitality level 1000 straight Expert Mode!!! Check em out yall!!“
“I love this place! Especially the bartender Chris! He is my absolute favorite: kind, wise and an exceptional bartender! Love hanging out here in the dark gothic historic bar. Thank you for a great time ~ Please note the worst reviews are like 100 years old!“
“I don’t write reviews. It’s an incredibly rare occasion when I post something like this…but damn was the nightshift deluxe pizza worth the admission. Definitely in the top 5 if not top 3 pizzas all time, and I’m a fat retired Army guy that’s been around a bit and have had a lot of pizza. Well worth the visit for their Provel cheese that makes the thin crust pizza work. This is the first thin crust that breaks the top 10,5 and 3. Great atmosphere if you like a good neighborhood bar, I would go out of my way to visit this place again that happens to be by a hotel I’m staying while going home to take care of my Dad.“
“It was the first time having St Louis style ribs. They were fried and burnt to the consistency of charcoal. If that's the way there supposed to be then fine and not for me. The staff was very accommodating and let me switch them out for some dry rubbed smoked ribs and they were good. I also had the brisket and it was very good. I would go back again. Just need to know about the St Louis ribs. Not willing to give up.I was in town again and decided to give this place another try. The Mac- n -cheese, fries, popover, and this time the ribs were excellent. However the brisket was dry and tough. It really should not of been served. I've eaten at a lot of BBQ's joints and Salt + Smoke is not alone. They are all hit or miss.“
“Outstanding Yelp find. We were in the area and read a review about the best burgers in town. Gotta say, they got it spot on. Great service, very tasty burgers, served up hot with Very good fries. Overall a great location.....we'll be back!!“
“Judy does a wonderful job with the bar and makes everyone feel comfortable and safe when out for a good time. The Pub is probably my favorite bar ever, but then again I might be biased as I have many friends and family members that have all frequented the place in the past as well as currently. But it really feels like an extension of home every time I visit.Parking: Park in front or around the side and if you have to you can even park in back.“
“Coltranes has always been a pretty laid back place. The place has been around since I was kid. During the day it's not real loud or anything. They have 2 pool tables and a few golfing machines. If you're looking for a place to relax, be able to talk without yelling and enjoy some food then this would definitely be a place to check out.“
“Really cool place with good food. I enjoyed being able to try different drinks. I don’t drink beer but they even have a wall for cocktails and wine. It’s a cool concept. We had several different pizzas at our table. All of them were delicious but I thought the maple bourbon pig was the best. We will definitely be back.“
“One of my very favorite bars! I've been here multiple times and I'm always happy visiting and spending time here. The vibe is upbeat but chill, and they have a great year round patio. This visit in particular was on Mardi Gras, which was a great spot to have a couple drinks without actually heading down to Soulard. We sat on the heated patio and had a couple of drinks and were able to chat while still hearing one another. Bartenders are always helpful and friendly, and they have a good selection of beverages. I typically go for the 4Hands seltzers since they're my fav. It got to be super packed full of Mardi Gras go-ers, so we headed out after about an hour and a half. Always a good choice!“
“Low-key, neighborhood pool bar. Excellent bar-pool tables kept in good condition. Full bar service but a serious cocktail would be out of place here. Staff is always friendly and the place is generally packed, particularly if they're hosting a tournament or pool league competition. My favorite thing about this place is they have a challenge table where you can keep playing for free as long as their are challengers and you beat them! Definitely the best pool bar in town.“
“Do you love buffalo chicken pizza? STOP! This place has the best..hands down...first place...buffalo chicken pizza! I have ventured out to try others and they just don't compare. I am not even a pizza fan and I order it almost every time. Their entire menu is amazing. They have a wonderful steak sandwich. Every soup has been delicious. Now, the atmosphere isn't the most inviting, but do remember you are in a bowling alley. I will say the bar stools make up for it. I could sit in one all day. The most comfortable bar stools in St. Charles County. Tubby's is one of my go-to places.“
“We were very impressed with this restaurant. The food was very good, and they have the best Mexican food menu that we have found since moving to the St. Louis area a year ago. All the standards are on the menu, plus some very nice real Mexican options. The place is not fancy, but it is laid out well, except there is no real waiting area when it is busy. It was very busy both times we went. Service was great with a friendly staff. This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant. We have had Mexican all over the U.S. and have lived in New Mexico and Texas and have traveled all over Mexico. So we have a broad base for comparison. I would rate the food higher, but I have not tried enough of the menu yet.“
“Seems like a nice place if you like cigars. They have good drinks and outside seating which is a plus during good weather. Sundays seem to be popular with the fellas ladies. ? They don't serve food though, but overall a good place to hang.“
“Ice & Fuel is my go-to spot for what I feel is the best burger in STL. The cooked-to-order freshness is outstanding. With fresh, crisp vegetables and sides, it's hard to beat. If your cardiologist is more forgiving than mine, get a side of onion rings! Drinks are cheaper than most places and the pours are perfect. The staff is always courteous and attentive. Frequent visits and you'll be remembered - that's a great part of going here. My one complaint: It is loud. Very loud. Between 5 and 7 you're probably not going to have a few cocktails and catch up with friends. If yelling people is your thing, you'll love it! Overall Ice & Fuel is a great, underrated beer and burger joint. Check it out!“
“Made a pit stop after the botanical gardens on our way home. Gooooood Italian food, kids loved the chicken tenders,,,, oooh- the zucchini sticks- yum!! Wish I knew they had the onion soup- I would have ordered that instead of the chili. Good place to fill your tummy before hours of driving back home!“
“Not a bad little place. Food was delicious and quick, only reason I gave it 4 was the service and seating. Was asked to speak with someone, they passed me into a other and then we had three different servers between drinks, food order and water top offs. Friendly non the less, but not as simple as it could be.“
“Very nondescript bar on McKelvey road across the street from Maryland Heights Community Center. This was formerly The Drinking Horn and they have preformed wonders inside/ It's clean , roomy with new tables plenty of TVs for sports viewing and the best bartenders around especially Ronnie! They have Trivia at 7:30 on Thursday evenings and Karaoke on Friday They pour a respectable drink , offer pizza for purchase or you can bring in outside food. If you're in the area give them a try you might just like it.“
