“Vincent and all the other workers are the most kindest people! Every time I come in I feel so welcomed and love the smiles and happy attitude! An amazing group of people :)”
“When in town, I try to stop in since we do not have Lions Choice. The roast beef has been great each time but the fries are consistently undercooked or cold. I also am not sure why I end up encountering the same most unpleasant drive thru team members, who also never provided me with a receipt. A simple smile can go a long way. Thanks for the Roast Beef!!”
“Just went in this morning, super clean and unfortunately I didn’t get her name but the gorgeous girl with curly hair working today was amazing, super sweet and very easy to talk to! ?”
“Dan the manager was very nice. I missed up my order and he came and explained everything to me. I appreciate his patience with me and my questions.Update: I got to eat and my bagels were hard. ??”
“I had heard that this location has significantly improved since the last time I was here (many months ago) and it most definitely has! The whole restaurant is very clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They have the kiosks for ordering but if you need anything, the staff is very accommodating and attentive. The food was ready very quick and it was great quality. We will definitely be back to this location!”
“Excellent dinner. Easy to make reservation. Service was excellent, friendly and prompt, great flow/ timing of presenting food. The food itself was excellent! My only wish is that hot sake was an option.Dietary restrictions: Did very well with gluten and dairy free options. Staff was knowledgeable on allergies and appropriate menu items.”
“"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."”
“Louie was amazing!! The food and service were the best part! Our waitress Emma went above and beyond!! She took the time to explain the dishes and be super personable!! Ask for Emma, she’s the best!!!”
“This restaurant is very clean, and the service is wonderful. I recommend the Chicken Tikka Kabob. The meat is so tender that it melts in your mouth, and the flavor is amazing. It comes with a side of salad and rice. The rice is so fragrant and delicious. The salad is fresh. The samosas are good too. You get two per order, and the green chutney on the side is yummy. They do make their baklava in house.”
“This place is great for desserts. The twisted cake with ice cream which is the chimney cake tastes great and has 9 flavors. This was our first time trying this place today. If you want something else, they have shakes, waffles, crepes, mini pancakes, Italian soda and ice creams of variety of flavors. This place is smaller in size and has about three tables to sit near the window and two other sitting areas to the left of the cash register. This place is a nice addition to the ballwin area.”
“Exquisite food! Service was excellent as well. We will be returning to try more of the menu. Each course was timed perfectly and was enough to not leave you craving more. Overall a great dining experience.”
“Awesome ice cream and amazing atmosphere. Prices were ok for what you received. We would definitely go back to try other flavors. Strawberry shortcake won. Service was very helpful and patient.”
“This place is amazing! I love soup dumplings and Tiger Soup Dumplings is a great restaurant to try them. The traditional steamed pork dumplings are my favorite with their rich flavor. The drinks are excellent too and are so flavorful. I will be visiting this place many times. It's a new favorite!”
“Such a wonderful dining experience. Very elegant and stunning restaurant. The food was amazing. The lamb chops were so tender, I thought I was eating a filet mignon. So juicy. Definitely worth the experience.”
“We frequent Teleo Coffee with our family after moving to St. Louis. As a European, in my first months living in the US, I visited so many coffee shops where I could feel the cozy atmosphere and smooth, delicious coffee like in my homeland, and I found it here. This place has become like a second home to me, especially thanks to the friendly baristas and owner of the establishment. This is the very moment when you come to this cute house with a huge bright veranda and they greet you and call you by name. They also participate in donations, helping different organizations during certain periods with a small percentage of drink sales, which is amazing!P.S. Barista Sarah recommended the Lavender Vanilla Latte to me on one of my first visits, and I've been kind of addicted to this latte ever since. Highly recommend. Thank you, Sarah!”
“This is my first time visiting this absolutely beautiful restaurant! I was pleasantly welcomed by the owner and shown to my table. The ambiance is beautiful & traditional Syrian/Mediterranean which immediately takes you away from where you are. The service was excellent. Every dish I tried was absolutely delicious! I had the stuffed grape leaves, a light traditional soup, and the beef dish served with a light yogurt & vegetables. If you haven't tried this wonderful establishment, you must give it a try! Very unique and a well needed addition to this little cove of Creve Couer! I will definitely be returning often & bringing others!!”
“A little out of the way on the loop, which can be nice if you want a bite without yelling to talk with who you’re with. Street tacos were great, absolutely recommend. A little pricier, but you can tell they use quality ingredients.”
“We were excited to try the Tavern tonight for the first time. We were a bit underwhelmed. I only got 3 scallops for a $45 entree (even Disney will give you 4 for the same price). Additionally, the fries and baked cookie had a burnt aftertaste from the oven. For $150, we thought it was significantly overpriced for what we got.”
“The food was overall good but not great or life changing. We are big fans of Vicia and were hoping for the same complexity of flavors but did not find it in all the dishes here - only some of them.We ordered:Gougeres - cheese fondue and popovers. Fondue was good but the popovers were kind of doughy and dense.Beef tartare - fine, not great - the tartare was a bit flavorless and flat despite being served with a jusFrench onion soup - good! No complaints.Mussels - the star of the show, 5/5, some of the best mussels I’ve hadPain perdu - a carmelized dessert with toasted brioche and Clementine’s ice cream that was delicious.Special shout out to the mocktail Papillon. I don’t like when mocktails are just fruit juice but this one really had the complexity and slight bitterness of a cocktail.Overall we would come back but there are flavor profiles of some dishes that could be elevated to make this a 5/5 meal.”
“Recently, I tried Spiro's Restaurant for the first time, and it was a pleasant surprise. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. I decided to try their lamb gyro, and I was not disappointed. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the tzatziki sauce added the perfect touch. The portion size was generous, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience that I would definitely recommend to others looking for delicious Greek cuisine in the area.”
“Have been here many times, never disappoints. Recently tried the French toast, which was delicious! Waiter dissappear for quite a while and had to ask someone else to get us the check but other than that, no complaints.”
“Such a unique place to have a meal. Their menu is filled with plenty of choices and they have the best smoothies around. And on top of that the staff is super helpful in the place is super clean. Definitely worth coming to if you're looking for something new to try.Parking: On this particular occasion it was very easy to find a parking spot at 2:00 p.m. however when I've been there during regular lunch hours there were no spots available at all and I parked in one of those spots that was for one of the other businesses there and on my way back to my car that particular business that I was lucky that I didn't get towed. Just warning you so you don't make the same mistake I did.”
“This is absolutely our favorite place for breakfast. The fresh bags are incredible and the gooey butter is out of this world. On a nice day we love sitting in their outside area. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for an authentic St Louis dining experience.”
“Delicious curry sauce, fresh rice, and freshly fried katsu, always the best for a quick meal and a great deal for your dollar. Despite not having the event, Katsuya was very nice and amazing to help plan catering to an event. If you're looking for large catering options for a great price, please stop by and ask, they're amazing!”
“Ok so this was my first time here, and I absolutely loved the atmosphere. Very cozy and welcoming. There is also an outside patio for dining, which is also super sexy. I opted to sit at the bar and order my meal. It was a nice cozy spot in the corner by the front door. A waiter suggested it when I walked in. I don't remember his name, but he is awesome because it was absolutely perfect. I was waited on by a super sexy bartender named Abby. Very welcoming and sharp. She was on the job.Moving on, I ordered the 14oz New York strip, seafood pasta, and the calamari. The calamari was the best I've EVER HAD. You have to try it. There are no small stingy pieces. All thick juicy cuts and battered to perfection. My steak was just "OK." I expected more from this place, but it just wasn't there. I grill a pretty damn good steak myself, so I'm hard on restaurants when it comes to steak. The pasta was also just "ok." The pasta noodles were overcooked, so it had that gooey sticky feel, and the sauce it was cooked in obviously wasn't made with high quality, rich ingredients.In closing, this is a classy, laid-back place. Perfect to bring a date. The service is sufficient and friendly. The food that I ordered in particular left me wanting and expecting more. Quality ingredients are a must when ppl can spend $130+ $30 tip for a meal, and that's just 1 person! The portion with the steak could've been better for that kind of money, for sure. Many restaurants post pandemic have taken shortcuts on quality ingredients and good portion sizes. Ppl don't mind paying for good food, and you actually feed them. It's so bad that it has kept me from going to higher class restaurants altogether because there is simply no value anymore.Parking: They have a couple of small parking lots. However, if you co.e when they're busy, you may have to part on the street.”
“Food was YUM, service was friendly, and the space and location is so cute. In the heart of the hill, a must-go-to place for a hot or cold Italian sandwich that tastes authentic and made with love. The Grace was my fav! With Italian sausage, pepperoni, cheese and red sauce.”
“absolutely loved everything about this place! the food was delicious and came out fast for a busy friday afternoon. the (i’m assuming) owner was extremely attentive to all the customers and his staff was very friendly! i will be back to try the other items on the menu :)”
“These guys make great gyros! They're super friendly, the place is spotless, and I always leave full and happy. I can't recommend this place enough - very simple and tasty!”
“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.”
“The food is excellent, but it's the great service that we have received every time we have visited that puts this restaurant on top. I feel good service can be hard to find, but we are never disappointed by the 'Shroom.”
