Bair's All-American Sports Grill

Sorry my Missouri friends. Bair's missed the mark in more ways than one. However, all is not lost. With a little bit of attention-to-detail from the kitchen staff, Bair's could be a good southside spot.

Burgers: I have started noticing a lot of burger places do this; meat temperatures and descriptions right on the menu. Mostly, I find it unnecessary but in certain cases, it lets you know that the restaurant takes pride in cooking meat to temperature.

3 burgers were ordered at our table, 2 medium, and one medium-well. They all came out over-well. All tenderness and texture was lost. The accompanying fries were lukewarm at best. The funny thing is, the menu had this bold pitch about the quality of the meat. "Fresh, never frozen all american..." That's great! Just treat the meat with the same respect that it is shown on the menu .

Some thing's to consider: When you serve a burger with the lettuce, tomato, and onion on the side with the top of the bun off, it gives me the wrong impression. It looks like you are just trying to make it look like more food is on the plate. It's not really a big deal. It's just kind of off-putting. I don't like assembling my food before I eat it. Also, can we get a toasted bun?

This place has pretty good bar food and burgers. Which isn't usually my thing, but every once in a while it's great. I've never had a problem with service at all, and all of the staff have been very friendly.

This place is great. The menu is huge! I will be able to go here dozens of times and never have the same thing. Everything I saw on the menu looked great. Will definitely be making quite a few trips here during football season!
