Comfort Food Restaurants near University City, MO

“Tumeric is one of our favorite Indian restaurants. We have been here numerous times, and we were always happy with the quality of food and service here after each visit. The wait staffs have been friendly and welcoming. Tumeric provided a pleasant and soothing ambience in addition to comfy booth seatings.They sold out of chicken 65 tonight, so my partner got the Kale Palak Chaat. This was an interesting dish where kales was disguised in a yummy way - crispy and flavorful. We also got Paper Dosa and Butter Chicken. We tried a few places served Dosa in STL but Tumeric's Dosa is the best! I highly recommended the Paper Dosa here. Basically, Dosa is a thin, crispy, Indian style crepe made from fermented rice and lentil batter - definitely a vegan friendly item. You can pick your own fillings such as potato/egg/chicken or lamb. My favorite is the potato filling. Their butter chicken served with Basmati rice on the side was finger licking good!!!! The sauce was very buttery/creamy, and the chicken was very moist. It's even better when warm fresh Garlic Naan dip in the sauce. Highly recommend!!!Vegetarian options: Paper DosaKid-friendliness: High chairs“

“Oxtails and shrimp were ???. Amazing flavor amazing taste. I also got the rice and peas and cabbage. They were cooked perfectly, I only wish the flavor was as amazingl as the oxtails and shrimp, that were again loaded with flavor. All in all, great experience, would for sure go back again.“

“Good Thai food. Have had better but the flavors and drinks were all on point! In my opinion the service was below average I felt very rushed from the moment I sat down with my group. A few of the orders were not quite as ordered and a fair bit of confusion.Dietary restrictions: Both Vegan and Vegetarian along with gluten free options!“

“DLT duck sandwich, roasted pork belly and cheese fries.The most delicious ones are the French fries, and the grilled pork belly is well seasoned, with a balance of sweet and salty, and the overall taste is great. If you don’t worry about taking in too many calories….“

“My wife and I stopped by this morning before a four hour drive home for breakfast. I had the smoked pork chop with eggs and a biscuit, my wife a vegetable omelet. Both were fantastic, the portions were large and the prices very reasonable. The service was great. Highly recommend.“

“Randomly googling vegan restaurants in St Louis (already knew I'd have to drive to the side south) and this gem popped up - WHAAAAT? It's only 5 mins from me. I finally made it today right before they closed and it was worth the wait. It was a little hard to find tho but the Nae Nae Philly and Fries #chefskiss ? Well done! I will definitely be back. ???“

“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“

“One of the city's best chicken places. Feels right at home in the Maplewood collection of eateries. Casual dining -- concrete floor, plastic cups, paper plates. The menu consists of the basics ... chicken, baked beans, cole slaw, bread... and they stick to these basics to do them well.“

“Nice Restaurant. I am Rumi Akter.“

“We hosted a private event at the restaurant. The owner was very accommodating. We even provided our menu selections ahead of time to have a smoother experience. I had the Salmon & Veggie Pasta and it was $26.99. I even had leftovers! I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“I am a Assistant Travel Coordinator for a non-profit organization that is located in Concord NC. I called this location in hopes of getting a catering order put in place for when we were going to be in town. I spoke to Lamon Credit and I have to say that he is absolutely AMAZING!! Most of the time when I call places and try and place a larger order for a date that is further out they get frustrated and make me feel like a burden. NOT LAMON!!!! He was so respectful and made sure that I was well taken care of. He made me feel appreciated and that he was happy that I called to place an order with him. This has been by far the best service I have EVER received over the phone. We will defiantly be contacting them again when we come back next year!PERFECT! PERFECT! PERFECT!“
