We had a very good experience dining at the 5 Star Burgers. We arrived toward the end of Happy Hour so it was pretty busy but it soon thinned out so we could get a table and get started with some really good angus burgers. We really appreciated that there was no antibiotics or growth hormones in the beef. We'll be back for more burgers and those sweet potato fries.

This local restaurant just opened itâs fourth location in the St. Louis metropolitan area (one in Clayton, two in St. Louis and now in Chesterfield). Made from scratch and right in front of you, these calzones will fill you up, are extremely tasty and only run $9 -$10. Nice change from the normal lunch options. Quick delivery to our nearby office as well. About 15 creatively named selections to choose from along with a half dozen salads and a couple of hand crafted desserts - everything is made in-house. My favorite is the âMeat Me In St. Louieâ w/ pepperoni, Italian sausage, three-cheese blend and garlic. My daughter goes for the âCock-A-Doodle Noodleâ which is stuffed with mac-n-cheese, roasted chicken & mozzarella.

The quality of the food is excellent, and the service is pretty good. I love the Winslow's Burger. The meat is tender and it is quite tasty and juicy. Also, the bakery has exquisite pastries.

Famous for Chuck Berry, the Father of Rock & Roll and first person inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Chuck Berry, inaugurated the Duck Room and played over 200 consecutive monthly concerts here. Today this a pretty unique venue to eat, drink and listen to live music. The atmosphere is amazing with what seems and endless amount of memrobilia filled rooms of all manner of collectables.We popped in for luch and sat in one of the booths. The staff are bvery friendly and our food arrived very quickly to the table.I expect it is a completely different vibe during the evenings but it is clear from what we saw that the place is considered to be a bit of a treasure.

Visited for a late lunch, place was busy but no wait. We were seated and the staff was very courteous. We ordered the fried calamari which was a huge portion for an appetizer. We ordered 1/2 mufulleta sandwich ( you can get whole/half/quarter) and a seafood stew. It was quite bountiful and delicious. We took most of it home and had another dinner from it. I can't forget to mention the beers on tap and served at a perfect temperature. This is definitely a place to return for drink and/or dinner.

Recently dined here as part of an Aniversary celebration. Apologize for not remembering our servers name. Young lady wiith blond ponytil, that was attentive and knowledgale. Quick note on this she was friendly and upbeat but neither my spouse or myself noticed any of the other servers even smile during our stay. Did not affect our meal in any way, just seems curious.Anyway BH had Oysters Rocekefeller and I had Lobster clam chowder as an appitizer. The Corn chowder was probably the best soup I have ever had. Oysters were very tasty also. Bh had a small Filet, and I had the rib-eye, both were cooked exactly as requested and very flavorful, various sides - Loster mac n cheese, brussel sprouts (amazing) and grilled asparagus were all excellent. Could not complete more than half the bounty and had a woderful lunch the next day of the leftovers. Keep this in mind when you get your tab, and it is a it pricey, but well worth and you are actually paying for wo meals each with the large servings.

I really enjoyed having nightcaps with my friends at this place.You definitely feel like you're in a German pub or timber lodge or Masonic gathering or something. The couches are old and rustic, as well as the tables and the setting. The walls are adorned with "olde" stuff. It's my kind of place!The people there seem to be mostly of the more chilled out persuasion. Bartenders seem pretty chill and friendly. I had a cocktail that I think was called Aztec Gold, which was basically like a dessert drink, very tasty. Perfect end to the night!For a brief period of time, there was a live pianist and bassist playing some jazzy tones. A wee bit pricey if you're just getting basic drinks.. so go for an interesting cocktail or unique brew.

This place was packed on a Thursday evening so lucky we got last minute reservations. Our meals were absolutely outstanding. The Heirloom tomato and burrata cheese salad was my favorite, although my husband liked his local peach salad a lot. He declared his branzino fish dish the best he had ever had and I agreed after a couple of tastes on my part. My morel pasta was wonderful. The only downfall was since I have to be gluten free, the gluten free pastas are not as good as regular, but the dish itself was a treat. The flourless chocolate cake with ice cream was divine. Definitely would go to this restaurant when in the area next, but would try the tasting menu to get a wider sampling of this wonderful cuisine.

Used to have to wait for a table...but the place was slower the night we went. Service pretty good....NOT for a quiet dinner but good atmosphere. The pizza was excellent and the toppings on my favorite salad (Bada Bing) plentiful. Great place to people watch and take in the vibe of The Loop....right on trolley line. Hard to resist the desserts next door...(create your own cookie and icecream sandwich combo!)

We do like stopping here. We were hoping a Tuesday afternoon after 1230 they would not be packed. Forgot schools in session and tourist season is slowing. Very good service from Danielle!Seated right away close to the bottling line. Unfortunately was not runningI knew I would have a root beer float. They are huge, ice cream is excellent and running over the sides of the glass. Never disappoints. They have other flavors we saw cream soda and orange.My wife had the fish tacos. Loaded with fish and other things served on soft tacos. Side was black beans and rice. There were also two diff side cups of sauce for the tacos. She thought this was very good.I ordered the turkey pastrami Reuben. Disappointing. The marble rye was good but the turkey pastrami was plain turkey fried on flat top and then had added cheese and very little kraut. Did not eat half of it nor did we take with us. My side was the slaw, just ok. We will go back and I will order diff food but always the root beer float.
