Chicken and waffles was great, even the waffle with strawberry coulis and the most delicious whipped cream. The savory food was alright. Their espresso machine was broken which was sad. Overall, it was a nice experience."

A group of us came in for dinner following a Yelp event that did not involve food (yes, it does happen from time to time) and had a great meal. First up, I had a chicken wing. I tore it into 3 pieces so I could try each of the sauces. All are made in-house and extremely well crafted. My favorite was the szechuan. I really enjoyed the way the heat sneaks up on you about 30 seconds after it first hits your palate. Next up was their burger. It is a couple of patties of nicely seasoned beef with gooey cheese and crispy fried onions on a griddle-toasted pretzel bun. About as perfect as a burger can be! They served a barbeque sauce and a mustard sauce on the side but neither touched my burger although I did dip a few fries and enjoyed both. Note: you better be hungry if you order their burger. It is no joke...and no, you won't have room for dessert. I feel as though I need to dig deeper into their menu now..."

A few people didn't know what it was, and while I love spatzle, I've never had it that good. The deviled eggs were some of the best I've ever had, and I have had deviled eggs in hundreds of different places. The French onion soup was very good. I had the salmon and it was just incredible. The tuna poke appetizer was the most unique tuna poke I've probably ever had. Maybe not the absolute best, but just a wild flavor that was very new and different. People will think I'm making this up if I only praise the dishes, so there were a few that weren't perfect. Three people had the steak and all of them said it was fine, not amazing. It's not the end of the world, but I would probably avoid that. Absolutely want to go back again! Excellent meal!"

The menu had something for everyone, and the entrees was beautifully plated and as delicious as they looked. The wine menu was lovley and the cocktails were interesting. I enjoyed the Bourbon Murray. We may have found a new fave in St. Louis!"
