First impression was COOL Place for Sunday Lunch and Football with friends. Â Menu has everything you could desire. Â Server was not friendly. Â No smile. No welcome. Â Just, "What do you want to drink?" Â Asked about appetizers....reply from server, "I asked you what do you want to drink?" Â WOW! Â Funny thing, server messed up the drink order still. Â Would have walked out there but we were hungry and wanted to watch the game. Â Service only went down hill. Â Not one Your Welcome to our Thanks. Â Giving still two stars over one star because the food was AWESOME. Â Just the experience was a bummer. Â We will not be going back.
Review Source:We wanted to try something different from the ordinary for lunch so we drove to Kirkwood to find a new place to eat. Â
We were driving from the north so we had to make a uturn to get into the parking lot. Â Kind of a pain and there may be a better way in from that direction but we must have missed it. Â We got there about 11:30 so there wasn't much of a lunch crowd, and honestly only a couple of people came in while were were there. Â However the place was extremely clean which is always a plus. Â
Our waitress was great, very attentive, never allowing our drinks to drop below 1/4 empty. I had the Louie Burger. Â Bacon and cheese with an over easy fried egg on top. Â Although a little messy and almost to big for my mouth, it was delicious. Â
Seems like a nice place and would be a great place to stop after work and have a couple drinks. Â I may have to do that sometime.
I was pleasantly surprised! Â I met up with my brother here for dinner and a catch up time. Â I got there and no one greeted me which is kinda off putting. Â Maybe I didn't see a sign that said seat yourself, either way, finally the bartender told me to sit wherever (it was pretty empty). Â I ordered the chicken nachos and they were REALLY good. Â I was super surprised. Â I figured they'd just be ok, but, these were tasty! I ate so much and only finished half! hello lunch. HAHA. Â the waitress paid attention to our needs and checked in reguarly. Â Overall decent experience.
Review Source:I'm so glad that Bar Louis has thrived in the downtown Kirkwood business district. I get tired of seeing restaurants come and go in Station Plaza.
A trip to Bar Louis always requires a little patience --- a group of ladies stopped in for lunch during the Kirkwood Holiday Walk, a heavily advertised event to get people shopping and eating in Kwood on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Â As the weather was unseasonably warm, we opted to sit outside and soak up some rays with our drinks and lunch. Â The host warned us that sitting outside might slow down service a bit since he hadn't planned for outdoor seating that day. Â Fair enough---we thought we had a general idea of what a reasonable wait might be. Â He should have said that service would move at a glacial pace. Thank goodness we didn't have anywhere to be--it took 20 minutes to ORDER our drinks. Â Similar time frames accompanied the ARRIVAL of the drinks, the ORDERING of the FOOD, the ARRIVAL of the food, the PRESENTATION of the checks, and the PAYMENT of the checks.
Our waiter apologized, but then proceeded to complain at every interaction about how swamped he was. Â We were understanding, but you really don't want to feel like a burden when you're plunking your cash down at an establishment. Â He was a downer. Â In his defense, he didn't seem to be getting help from the manager which makes me think the entire restaurant was understaffed that day.
On to the food---everyone enjoyed their meals--ham and brie, caramelized onion flatbread, tzaziki/hummus/tabbouleh platter. Â The bloody marys were amazing---and I detest tomato juice! Â And really, the food, drink, and conversation were the focus of the afternoon, so all ended up okay.
The Bar Louie girls -- the high school group of six -- decided to celebrate our second anniversary of getting together by going back to Bar Louie -- where it all started!
Three of us got there 30 minutes "early," so we speared a lovely rounded booth facing all the TVs. Got water, reviewed the imbibement list and took a little minute to decide.
Our server (We kept calling her Susie, but then explained to her why we called her Susie, and she got a hoot out of it.) was just spot-on with the leisure and flavor of our table! I wish I could remember her name, but she was absolutely delightful and extremely attentive.
Tuesday is $1 burger night. Well, you gotta know the $1 burger is lettuce and a bun -- it says so explicitly on the menu. No arguments from us readers!! You want cheese, bacon, mayo, grilled onions, raw onions, tomatoes -- Â anything else -- it costs extra!! For the most part, additions are 50 cents extra. Mayo is 25 cents extra.
The dollar burger menu encourages you to order a basket of fries or tots. Ask how much that costs -- 'cause it ain't $1. We asked. And we asked how many that basket would serve.
OK, here's the rundown: one basket of fries or tots costs $4, and it serves 2-3. BINGO! You got the picture.
We started out with a cone basket of calamari with its lucious ketchup-horseradish sauce. It was wonderful. I wish we'd ordered two.
Then we were on to the burgers. Everybody got exactly what they ordered, brought out by the "kitchen"? Not sure, but he was fabulous. And we got a basket of tots.
By this time our sixth attendee had arrived, and she was giving her burger order to the kitchen guy. He was taking it all in, but then Susie was there, so she took over. Great service!!
And we ordered another basket of tots. There's just something about tots that reminds me of childhood. And, yes, tater tots were already invented when I was a child. (So was fire.)
The burgers just hit the spot! Great buns, a good-sized patty with nice beef flavor and a reasonable amount of lettuce. Add a little ketchup and a lot of mustard (both free), dig into the tots, and you gotta a great meal! I added Cheddar to my burger, so it was a $1.50 burger. There were four cheese options: Cheddar, Pepper Jack, American and Provel (I think).
That second basket of tots was HOT-HOT -- fresh out of the tot-maker!! Yum!! The six of us did not finish that second basket.
A fabulous evening with good friends, good food, good service!
I wanted to enjoy my Columbus Day outside (don't be jealous but yes, I do get the holiday paid off) so after a run my friend and I decided to sit on the patio at Bar Louie for lunch. Â The place was pretty much dead, so there were only two servers inside. Â There were only a few people on the patio, so we sat down and waited for someone to come to our table (the sign inside told us to seat ourselves). Â Meanwhile, ten minutes later, we were never helped, and I was getting hungry! Â I finally went inside and asked the bartender if we could sit outside so that she knew we were out there. Â Once our waitress came out, we ordered the brie and raspberry salad (me) and the trio nachos (my friend) and woodchuck beers (for both, of course!). Â The salad was around $9, so I figured it would be large enough for my meal, but it wasn't. Â It looked more like a side salad than lunch meal, or maybe I'm just used to 54th Street's amazingly large salads for the same price. Â The salad was good, the brie was a good compliment to the fruit and the dressing had a nice flavor to it. Â My friend enjoyed her nachos (and the chips were good plain, I had to steal quite a few since I was still hungry!) and our waitress brought out more chips when we ran out. Â The highlight of the meal was the Woodchuck cider beer. Â It tasted wonderful and was the perfect temperature, even came out in a frosted glass. Â Kudos to places who use frosted glasses! Â If I'm ever in the area and want a casual place to have a drink or appetizer, I'll come back, but not for dinner or a nice lunch. Â I think it is more geared to drinks and bar food anyways.
Review Source:Hmmmm I am not sure how to begin this review. I am not sure If I like this place or if I need to give it another try and see If I have a better experience. We had lunch here the other day and we sat outside in the patio area. The first thing I noticed is the overload of tables and chairs that were not placed in a manner to allow people to walk around, but instead shoved next to each other creating a maze of confusion.
The service was very poor. Our appetizer came out wrong the first time which is no big deal really. When they came out with the new appetizer they came out with our full meal too, so we had 3 extra large plates on our extra small table with no fork room whatsoever. (we could have picked an extra large table to accommodate) but we didn't.. We did not receive silverware so we asked. Waitress comes back with water but no silverware. I had to get up and go inside and ask for silverware and napkins.
The food was good, nothing spectacular. We had burgers and I thought they were just okay. The price for everything was not steep but not cheap either. I still do not know how I feel about this place.
Does this place really deliver based on all they hype it gets? I don't think so.
Could the patio area use a little organization? Oh big time.
Will I be coming here again? Maybe, maybe not.
Love this place, especially for Happy Hour (5-7:00). Â They have great specials ($3 drafts, $5 cocktails, half-priced apps, and more). Â The patio is great on a nice day, but it fills quickly so try to get there earlyish if possible. Â The inside has a bunch of nice TV's so it would make for a great place to catch a game. Â The menu is a notch above standard bar food and offers a little more variety than you may expect. Â Service can sometimes be a bit slow during HH since it's so busy there, but it's not bad.
Review Source:Imagine a chain of bars that really want to be upscale. Now make the food average and a little pricey for the level of quality presented. You have Bar Louie.
We were there at lunch time on a Sunday. The adobo shrimp skewers were tiny shrimp served over undressed greens. Color me unimpressed. The blackberry, orange, & brie salad probably should have been good, but was only 'meh'. Not-so-fresh berries killed that one. The Sesame Tuna sandwich was pretty darn good and I'd have it again. Unfortunately, nothing made me think we'd ever go back, given the large number of better options in the area.
Waitress- airhead. She forgot our order, spilled beer in my friends lap and as she was asking us if we wanted another round, some guy came up to her and she just started talking to him as my friend was in the middle of ordering. Not only did she just ignore what my friend was asking for-- she immediatly walked away after this giggly conversation with dude A, about 15 min later came back to our table all giggly and said "oops wernt you guys ordering?" REALLY!!! enough said
Review Source:While the food and drinks are good, the service always seems to put a bad taste in my mouth. My friends and I always seem to get the same waitress. I'm sorry to say I don't know her name. She has dark brown, curly hair, and she usually wears it up. Anyone remember Darlene from Roseanne? She looks just like her, and her attitude isn't far off either.
The first time I was graced with her presence, she quickly jotted down our order without so much as a smile. When she brought out our food, we realized there was no silverware. After trying to get her attention for 10 minutes, she finally brought some over.
If you need another drink, extra napkins, or your check, you had better be quick. This woman is faster than the tasmanian devil. She stops by your table only for a brief second, just barely letting you get the words, "May I have another dr..." out and she's gone. Too bad for your friend who wanted to ask for a to go box. He'll just have to wait.
My first experience with, let's just call her "Darlene," was enough for me never to go back to Bar Louie again. But I was certain that someone with such a piss poor attitude wouldn't be there for very long. I was wrong. I've been back 3-4 times, and she's always there. And the service is always awful.
This weekend, my friends and I grabbed a table in the corner. She proceeded to card all of us, even though only half of the table was ordering drinks. After taking our order, she came back and told us we would have to leave because two people in our group were under 21. I had never seen this policy enforced at Bar Louie before, and I'm convinced that it wasn't because my friends were under 21. No, it was because the last time she was our waitress, we tipped her according to the service we received.
My advice? If you're going out, avoid this place. This waitress is a buzz kill.
Oh Bar Louie, I could have given you a better rating... but I didn't. Â There's a number of reasons for this: the prices keep climbing consistently higher, the air conditioning is continually set on "deep freeze," the place can get louder than a thousand screaming Justin Bieber fans, they never have enough umbrellas for the patio, and food really isn't that remarkable. Â There!
When Bar Louie first opened its Kirkwood location, I was a fan. Â They have a solid menu of American bar food: sliders and nachos, salads, burgers, pastas, pizzas, brunch on Sundays, etc. Â The BBQ chicken salad was my go to - it had everything I wanted in it: a tangy BBQ sauce ranch dressing, pieces of grilled chicken, avocado, corn and the most to die for friend onion straws on top. Â But it's a salad! Â So it's healthy! Â
Anyway, no mind - it was good, and when we could sit outside under an umbrella - we did. Â The inside was ok during off hours, but you needed to strategically attempt to position yourself out of the way of a blowing air vent, and hope a sports game wasn't on or else an audible conversation would not be possible. Â There are a LOT of TVs inside for avid (ie rabid) fans, which St. Louis is known for, so beware. Â
But as time has gone on, Bar Louie's rating, in my humble opinion, has gone down. Â The prices of the food has increased although portion sizes have not and the quality of the ingredients in the food doesn't seem as good as it's been in the past. Â Also, the staff isn't the most attentive to refilling empty glasses, turning down the AC when asked to, or making sure the order comes out correctly the first time.
At one point, I would have given Bar Louie four stars, but I can't in good conscience now. Â It's a good place for a pricier meal, but I don't feel the overall quality really lives up to the prices.
Every once in awhile, I will come across a place that seems to revel in averageness and mediocrity. Â Bar Louie IS that place for me in Kirkwood. Â There is absolutely nothing that stands out for me. Â I've been for dinner, for drinks, with large groups, with small, with all guys, with guys and gals... and every time we seem to get pretty crappy service and okay food. Â
The beers are usually brought out quickly, and the food is pretty solid for bar fare. Â Usually, though, the waitress or waiters mind will wander and we'll end up being forgotten for a good thirty minutes somewhere throughout the night. Â This isn't a big deal, but there is no reason for me to get excited enough to overlook certain flaws. Â It also isn't a big enough reason for me to subtract more stars.
Alas, Bar Louie struggles and wrestles with it's own averageness, with nothing to seperate from the pack. Â It is exactly what you will probably imagine in your head if you try to imagine a relatively average to below average bar, with young aloof waitresses, greasy food, decent prices on a Bud Light draft and nothing to differentiate it from any of the other bars in the area. Â It's still an okay place to go if you're with your friends though.
I like bar Louie! Not love, but definitely like. It's a good place to celebrate the weekend (or mid-week) with some food and drinks whilst enjoying the company of your friends. Not "super trendy," there's a lot of different people who seem to frequent here.
They have a full bar as well as a cute martini menu. The drinks are strong and the beer selection, though not vast, is interesting. I haven't had a lot of their food, but they do appetizers well! The pretzels are fabulous as is the dip trio.
Service is prompt and on very select occasions, they have live music. Not extremely unique, but can be a good night!
This place is your typical bar in a swanky area of Saint Louis. I usually like meeting my girlfriends up here for a cocktail or two or coming here with a crowd of friends. The bar itself is nothing too special considering this is a chain but honestly, the food and the menu at this joint is not to shabby. Their mac and cheese or their hummus plate is pretty darn good!
Review Source:Carry out success story! Â My husband and friend brought home some carry out for me so graciously after I had a late night out the night before. I ordered the grilled veggie wrap minus mayo and the rice/beans for my side. I wanted to be somewhat healthy, but I needed carbs to help my destroyed stomach. Well, go me because I ordered well. The wrap was loaded with fresh veggies, humus, and a little cheese. The rice and beans had a terrific flavor. Â I will definitely get at least two meals out of this, maybe three. The wrap was huge! Â I'm glad I stayed away from the fried junk and tried something new!
Review Source:Packed? Not even close, but perhaps that is because we were there for lunch on a Tuesday. There were only three other tables, two of west county ladies who lunch (4 or 5 at each table) and one with two business men having a beer lunch.
I was there with two co-workers, we all had Tuesday off and meet up for drinks and lunch. Our drinks were Bud Select, Margarita and Tickled Pink. I was drinking the Tickled Pink on the recommendation of our waitress. I told her I liked vodka, and I think she made her suggestion based on that and the fact I was in a pink polo. It was kinda sweet, but vodka served in a martini glass - I'm game.
We started out with the Bruschetta, which was served in a giant size Martini glass. It was light, flavorful and a perfect start to a afternoon or cocktails and munching.
We then continued our feast with three small plates, we each got to choose one. Our three were, Grilled Chicken Nachos, Loaded Fries and Chicken Wings (Szechwan). The Szechwan was great, spicy with a sweet tang. The loaded fries were good, for my taste they could have been crisper to handle the weight of all the toppings. The G. C. N. were the best of the three, one person could make it a meal.
Our waitress was perky and fun. When we were ready to go, she told us she only had two more hours to go on her shift and she'd love us to stay.  A few times she was slow bringing the next  round of drinks, but that wasn't her fault. I could see the bar where I was seated and the bartender had a problem staying within her work area.
Great ambiance, I had fun and the food was above average bar grub. I'll go back.
This Review is Specific for Brunch
A year ago this review would have been exactly the opposite, 5 stars. Â Last time we went here for brunch they had bottomless memosa's, they gave everyone a bag of donut holes with chocolate or rasberry dipping sauce and a bigger menu. Â
They know have brunch everyday, and the remainder of the menu is available as well. Â The brunch specific dishes didn't sound all that appetizing so I went with some of my favorite things from the regular menu. Â One person in our party did get the breakfast burrito which was pretty big and looked pretty good. Â The dishes coming out were pretty large. Â
The only reason this got two stars was because the price was reasonable. Â To the Bar Louie management: you want to be a real brunch spot - bring back the memosa's and donut holes.
Biggest let down ever on the biggest bar night in STL. Â It seems like whenever I walk into this place it is a big disappointment. Â I was told that this would be the place for the night last Wednesday. Â Aside from the dreadful weather I thought getting there about 6:30pm to start my Thanksgiving bender would be early enough.
After a $25 cab ride (mistake number 1) to the location I approach the inside and flag down a waitress to see if I can put my name down on a list for a table since I'll be having about 8-10 people following me here shortly. Â She explains that's not how it works and that I'm on my own basically to fight the rest of the yuppie bar crowd for a spot. Â Dumped next into the bar area from the door I'm immediately swarmed by bald 40-somethings in bad sweaters and miller lites trying to reclaim their college livers while their trophy wives and 20 something kids look on at how much of a fool dad looks around all his friends. Â If I had an alarm for "GET OUT NOW" it was blaring as loud as the tornado sirens were later in the evening (mistake number 2). Â Bartender sees me, immediately takes my order, grab my drink and start scouting tables large or large enough for my fellow drinkers. Â
Spot a table, center of the restaurant, beautiful TV with the Blues game just about to start ANNNNND reserved. Â Ok, I can't put my name down but someone was able to call ahead and reserve a table? I thought I put on my best Kirkwood resident impression but apparently not. Â Drink is halfway down, time to head back to the bar. Â 3 or 4 guys, not bar backs but guys who apparently work there stand at the receiving area chatting as I try to flag down the bartender again. Â One of the "guys" takes my drink order and gets it for me. Wow it is weak and a diet, not looking good. Â
So looking for tables has now turned into who is finishing their meals? Found two prospects right next to the bathrooms, great! Room to stand, can still watch the game, friends still haven't arrived and I can grab a table before they get here and be a hero and hopefully salvage some of this terrible evening. Â Waiting patiently for the the first table I spot a blond who is on to me. Â Standing at the edge of the table as the couple moves to get up I swear I've never seen someone run as fast as this woman did in heels to cut me off. Â That's ok, I got the next one which, was probably the better option towards the back since there was lighter traffic around there. Â
Friends arrive, waitress was epic and took great care of our group the rest of the night we were there. Booze was flowing, life was good. Gets to be about 8:00pm when I was told that group for the reserved table was supposed to arrive and 8:30 rolls around and they finally show up. Â Thought it was funny because this group was all under 21 and the waitress who was serving them was none to pleased to be serving iced tee and water all night. Â I was a bit annoyed I lost prime bar position for a booth too small for my group. Â
All in all, this place is way too crowded and small to handle the amount of people that were in there that night. Also taking names for tables and having patrons have to fight for one themselves is kind of silly.
This place is ALWAYS packed, but that does say something when it comes to judging whether Bar Louis is good or not.
The drinks are good, the food is good, and the prices are average. However, since it is always so crowded the service can be slow and it just gets annoying always being shoulder to shoulder with the other customers and fighting for tables.
Their patio is my favorite part, and it is HUGE! Yet again, good luck getting a table out there unless you get there early.
Their happy hour specials also rock my socks, so judging by my comments above, I obviously like it here. I do wish it would magically get less crowded when I arrive, although the likely hood of that happening is quite slim. The verdict - I should just get over it and keeping on happy hourin' it up at Bar Louie!
Went here last night for dinner with neighbors. The service was below par - we had to ask over and over again for the extra items we wanted. Our drink order took forever - and she forgot that we ordered appetizers.
I personally really like the food, and the selection for when I go with family. The patio is dog-friendly which always has me coming back, it is for sure not the service.
My favorite things to eat at the Bavarian Pretzel Sticks, so good! And their Buffalo Sauce Calamari I think it pretty lip smacking good!
If you are looking for good service and friendly workers, make sure to go to the location in the CWE.
It's Friday night, & initially I was going to eat at La Salsa. Â But, when I got there, the kitchen was closed at La Salsa. Â So, I ended up eating at Bar Louie. Â My drink came a bit slow, but afterwards the service was a bit faster. Â The food was good. Â I had the shrimp po'boy. Â It didn't taste what I had at my fave restaurant in Galveston, but it was all right. Â The bread was wonderful! Â The fresh fruit was delish! Â It had bananas, strawberries & honeydew melon & wasn't the usual fresh fruit like I had before. Â The side relish was a bit too spicy for my taste. Â There was variety on the menu. Â I liked the fact that they have several non-alcoholic drinks for people who don't drink. Â Overall, I was satisfied. Â The decor is typical barish with the dark wood paneling. Â I would sooo come back here to try different things & the non-alcoholic drinks.
Review Source:I'm pretty much on the bandwagon with most of the other yelpers on my opinion of this Bar Louie location: just okay. I frequented the Oak Park, IL location when I lived in Chicago and enjoyed it. This location was entirely too crowded when I went with my mom on a Weds night (I later learned here on Yelp that it's $5 bucket night which may have something to do with that). My mom ordered a white wine spritzer, and what she got was a glass of wine on ice with a lime wedge, no seltzer. Her salad was under dressed and we had to ask for more dressing, which wasn't easy since it was so crowded. My food was good - I had the Blue Louie burger which is my go-to burger when I'm there. It was tasty as always and the fries were good.
Who knows, it may be a better place other nights of the week, but it was definitely too crowded for eating dinner. I miss my Chicagoland location!
My husband and I met some friends at Bar Louie for drinks and the UNC v. Duke basketball game last Wednesday. Our friends had been there for a little while, so they had claimed a table in the very crowded bar. The waitress was quick to come over and take our drink order, but that is where the quickness ended. We ordered the $5 bucket special (a great deal!) and informed her that we were going to look over the menu to order our late dinner. The two of us quickly decided on food, but the waitress was nowhere to be seen. She eventually came back to replenish our beer bucket, but by that time we had waited too long and neither of us were hungry. The highlight of the night was the music and the company!
Review Source:This was one of my more likely choice between salsa class and work.  I usually would get  a glass of Malbec and bruschetta. (It comes in a huge martini looking bowl.) Their food is decent and I haven't had horrible service here. Prices are decent too. This place is usually packed from people ages 20-50 and a good happy hour place to be. Their patio is nice at least until a train comes by.
Review Source:Out of all the bars in Kirkwood, this one is probably my least favorite, simply because it gets WAY too crowded. Â The prices are decent, food is okay, but it's nothing to get excited about. Â You'll pretty much see people of every age (college to retired). Â I do like going here in the summer when the patio is open....very relaxing.
Review Source:The atmosphere at this place is pretty good. Â There's a good mix of people in the bar, ages and types alike. Â The music isn't bad, and there's a ton of outside seating. Â I also enjoy the food. Â It's cheap cheap cheap and you get plenty for the price. Â It's not the best food in St. Louis, but if you are here for the happy hour, it's easily one of the best deals.
I just can't get over how uncomfortably jammed this place always is. Â I have tried to go here on a Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Monday...it's the same story. Â Doesn't anyone in Kirkwood work? Â It's always jammed. Â I have never been able to go right in and sit down, on nice nights I have never gotten an outside table, and quite frankly, I often just leave and hit up one of the many other bars in Kirkwood when this place is like this. Â
Also, and I'm sure this is a result of the droves of people coming to this place, but the service is abominable. Â I have never waited so long just to get water. Â
So, to summarize: the bar is good, the food is good, the place is over crowded most of the time and the service is sub par.
I really wanted to give this place a better rating. I really like the atmosphere. It has a good mix of people, from college-age to young professionals to 50-somethings.
There is also a really nice patio. There is plenty of seating. It did take us about an hour to get a table outside, but it was a Friday night at about 9 p.m., so that's to be expected. It is next to train tracks, so it can be a little noisy when a train passes through.
The reason I couldn't give Bar Louie a better rating is because our service was simply awful. Our waitress was barely visible, and when you finally ordered a drink, you could expect to wait at least 15 to 20 minutes to actually get it (even though the bar inside was about 10 steps from where we were sitting). My friend was just drinking water, and she never found the time to refill his glass. We asked her to remove our food plates, and she never did, even though we sat there for over an hour. It wasn't even very busy by the time we were eating and drinking.
This was only my experience...the other outside waitress looked like she was doing a good job. She was actually conversing with her tables and bringing them drinks!
Also, if you are sitting outside, try to not sit right next the the building. The speakers are there, and it was pretty loud and hard to hear the person next to you talking.
Been here twice now.
First time we went w/ a large group of 9 for a birthday. Â I got the salmon w/ black beans and rice. Â Not bad, but not that great either, small amount of fish and a lot of rice.
We did LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the loaded tator tots....great as an appetizer to share.
Next trip I got the Steak Quesidilla and it was very yummy! Â My friend got the grilled cheese w/ bacon....also very tasty.
There is a rather large drink menu so that was fun, and I got an AWESOME Cosmo, but later when I ordered it again it tasted totally different. Â Maybe I'll never know what I got the first time. :(
They do have a large patio here w/ a band (not sure which nights) but if you think you're getting a seat out there w/ music, you better come early. Â We put our names on the list and then got a table inside and ate....by the time we were finished they called our name so we went out and had another drink. Â We did learn that you can also bring your own chairs and hang out on their patio and get drinks or whatever, so that might be the best idea.
This hands down my favorite bar, at least in a decent distance from where I live. Â The service is always above-average, and the food isn't bad at all. Â There is always a great mix of people, from the fresh-faced 21-year -olds to the retired types enjoying dinner on a Friday. Â Did I mention they have $2 pints on Mondays?
Review Source:It's a chain in trendy downtown Kirkwood, located a stone's throw away from the train station!
I met a friend here and I hadn't seen her for a long time. Â We are talking years. Â We planned to eat and catch up. Â
We had a hovering server. Â He wasn't very patient waiting for our order and after the food was delivered, it was obvious that he wanted us to vacate our booth. Â We were there on a Saturday afternoon and there were plenty of empty seats!
The food wasn't anything great. Â Nothing to make me go back there.
