I found The Salsa Bar after reading some reviews online. It is located next to a Jazz club, so it would probably make a nice place to grab a bite before going for some music. My food was okay, but not terribly thrilling. I ordered three Chicken tacos, and they seemed a little devoid of taste. However, there was a...
Fletcher's Kitchen and Tap is an excellent restaurant in Belleville. From what I have heard, Fletcher's is THE place to eat in town. Based on my experience dining there, I would definitely agree. The food is really delicious. The kitchen really prides itself on the amazing quality and taste of its fare. I recommend the zucchini! It is the best...
Whalen's is a large bar conveniently located close to UMSL. It's a great place for drinking on the cheap and relaxing a bit. There are two pool tables, a bar, jukebox, and lots of table seating. Every bartender I've met has been really nice. Whalen's isn't a fancy place, but it is a comfortable place to talk with good friends....
Joe Boccardi's is awesome. It has a laid-back, family feel to the restaurant and amazing pizza! I had a seafood pizza. It has several kinds of seafood and was delicious. It was too much to eat, so I took home leftovers and had another meal the next day. I tried some of a meat pizza, and it was excellent as...
Bias Winery was recommended to us by a local. We were told it was near Hermann, so we thought on the outskirts of town, but it is a lot further than that. It is located in Berger, but the drive there is very pastoral and beautiful. You have to cross railroad tracks without stopping arms, so make sure that you...
I had a wonderful time during my stay at Lazy Day Campground. It is primarily an RV campground, but it has a couple places for primitive camping. The woman managing the grounds was extremely kind and very helpful. She made our stay a great experience. Lazy Day Campground has lots of amenities: outdoor swimming pool, hiking trails, small fishing ponds...
Pacific Brew Haus is definitely worth a visit! Located in downtown Pacific, this beautiful restaurant and pub is wonderfully renovated and has plenty of character. There is a large menu serving all kinds of food- sandwiches, pizza, appetizers, burgers, ribs, fish and chips, etc. There are about thirteen beers on draught, ranging from A-B products to local breweries such as...
Boogaloo is a cool place. The food is great, the interior is nice (features swings on one of the bar sides!), and the overall feel is really fun. Everything I have tried here has been excellent, and the menu has a wide variety of choices. Boogaloo stands out among St. Louis restaurants through its unique feel and interesting fare. This...
California Pizza Kitchen is always a fun time. I like the light, laid-back atmosphere and the excellent pizzas. Service at this location has been good. It can get a little loud at times because of its attachment to the Galleria and the presence of children, but it is a great place to meet before or after a round of shopping....
BlackFinn has excellent flatbreads. This location has an outdoor seating area, but we opted to go indoors. We were seated in the room with the bar, which was a little too dark for my taste. In the early afternoon, it felt like it was late at night and sort of messed with my sense of time. The service was really...
Blue Sky is a great place to go to get a meal or enjoy drinks. If at all possible, I try to stick to the patio, but during the day, the interior is okay as well. At night, the music gets fairly loud and often is pretty bad. Actually, the same can be said for the outdoor patio as well....
Aasabi Bistro is a very welcome addition to the area! This restaurant offers sushi (the specialty rolls are really excellent) in addition to lots of dishes from all over Asia- notably Thai, Chinese, Korean, and Cambodian. I had never tried Cambodian food before, nor had I ever seen it offered on a menu. I got to try several of the...
