Salted Caramel Old Fashioned
Jennifer C.

Leaving a YEE, I checked to see what was in the area and stumbled upon this. Buried within a side mall is this gem of a place that specializes in Whiskey/Bourbon. The owner was super friendly and even seemed happy to have me there which was awesome. I settled on a glass of Salted caramel Old Fashioned which packed a punch! He mentioned to me about their other special offerings and they also have a small bites menu to help offset those libations. Definitely a nice change of pace

Absolutely amazing experience! You get to sample and bottle your own bourbon! Everyone who worked there was awesome and friendly! The setting and environment was freaking neat! The classic vibe with an old timey feel. Freaking epic!

We have been wanting to venture in for a long time. Finally got the chance to. We did a barrel and bottle tasting experience and it was awesome. Very neat experience. Staff is extremely kind and well versed. We tasted 22 barrels. Wheat, Rye, Barley and Bourbon barrels. We were able to take notes and decide what we wanted to create our own bottle. Really fun, learned a lot and this would be a great gift for the Whiskey lover! They have alternate drink choices for those who don't want to do the tastings and some small eats including pizza, charcuterie boards and Bavarian soft pretzels. They have live music multiple nights each month. It's a comfy, homey and masculine vibe. If you are looking for a unique experience this is a wonderful option.

Great service, great drinks, great music!! We're happy to hang out here on a a Saturday evening!

We had a fabulous time at this place . My husband did the tasting and creating his own blend. Stephen , the owner was so fun and helpful through the whole process . Great experience!!! Highly recommend.

I just had to come back and write about Barrel House! My husband and I love this place! We frequent it often and always enjoy it. The drinks are really good. I don't like whiskey but they offer some drinks that are not "whiskey forward "and they're very tasty. My husband almost always has their barrel aged Manhattan. It feels like you're welcomed into someone's home. The owners, Denise and Stephen, are warm and inviting. The couches and chairs are comfy. It's like being in a living room. There's often live music on the weekends. We've met some fun people while hanging out there. It's truly a great place to spend some time!

Such a unique find thanks to Yelp! Had the chance to chat with the owner Steve about the story (and he used to be a haberdasher too!). Service was excellent, the selection of brown spirits was unique and tasty and the ambiance was friendly and relaxed. Whether you're just having a cocktail with a friend or doing one of their special tastings or bottles I highly recommend.

We stopped in to check out this new business about a year ago and we were instantly, and warmly, welcomed by the proprietors Denise and Stephen. We have since spent many wonderful hours listening to music as we enjoyed our delicious bevs. We made our special "blend" bottle last fall as we celebrated our anniversary and will do it again, soon! What a great opportunity to create something uniquely our own! If you haven't already been to The Barrel House StL, you need to get there. Have fun!!

Barrels of whiskeys to taste!
Brent E.

In a strip center but don't let it fool you. Amazing selection of whiskeys. Owners are very knowledgeable and friendly. Drinks were well made and delicious. Limited menu but the pretzel was large and good.

Blend flight, live music, cool people. What more could you ask for?

Such a cool place! I got the blend flight and it was a really cool experience! Got to chill in vibey environment, sip some whiskey, and listen to some good live music. If that's also your kinda thing, this is the place for you.

From start to finish, for flights, cocktails, or the bottle experience, if you love whiskey this is the place for you. I've described it before as a speakeasy but brighter and with windows. Live music on most Fridays and Saturdays can be fun, or just have a quiet sit and sip on a Wed, Thur, or Sun. There are a bunch of special events, too. This has become my home away from home mostly because Stephen, Denise, and the rest of the staff are so welcoming and helpful.

What a unique place I just stumbled upon! A super relaxed atmosphere, where all things whiskey and bourbon are truly celebrated. Family owned and locally sourced. There is nothing not like about the wonderful people that own this place and what they are starting here! I am so excited to have something like this not only in STL, but also out in the county!

Was visiting St. Louis and went here with friends. Enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. Food and drinks were delicious and beautifully presented. Hosts Steve and Denise were friendly and knowledgeable. Am looking forward to going back the next time I'm in town.

Or another week day for a different special. I like the mom's corned beef with the unexpected grilled cabbage. The horseradish could be a little more spicy but I would order that dish again. The burgers are juicy and worth the extra bites! Also sit on the patio with your dog as they have a special menu for them too. My critiques of the restaurant are that they aren't so busy so the cooks do not move fast or they need to limit the menu to help speed up efficiency. The other is that the note to detail by the staff lacks as you have to remind them of what you ordered multiple times. Accessibility note: the restrooms are odd to navigate as I almost walked in the kitchen before finding the right path. The curb cut to the restaurant is placed well and has the pedestrian strips and the parking lot is shared by multiple businesses and you have to navigate around the parking lot landscaping.

Private event spaces and packages, several membership options, and humidor locker rentals round out the offerings. Great selection, friendly service, and a comfortable atmosphere.

My husband and I came back to dine for our anniversary. Service was EXCELLENT from host stand all…read morethe way until we paid the bill. Tim was outstanding! I spoke highly of the brisket ravs in my last review and my mind remains the same. The house salad is the way to go. The accompaniments work so well together. The dressings are delicious! My steak was cooked as I liked. I love the tableside serving of steak and au jus for the mash. My drink was well balanced and fresh with a hint of sweet. I'll be back!

Twisted Tree is known for its incredible selection of steaks and its signature tableside steak…read moreservice. Your steak arrives on a cart over an open flame, still sizzling and cooked to perfection exactly the way you ordered it. The ribeye cap is especially hard to pass up whenever you see it on the menu. Although the steaks receive much of the attention, Twisted Tree is far more than just a steakhouse. They offer several fish selections, along with pork, pasta, and chicken dishes, and everything is consistently well executed. I once enjoyed an outstanding scallop and risotto special, while also stealing a few bites of steak from my neighbor's plate. The endless house salad is so freaking good that you could honestly order it alone and leave full and happy. The house-made croutons are fantastic, and the two dressings are even better when combined together. Be sure to try the chipotle corn, which is truly unique and absolutely delicious. Most importantly, save room for the wedding cake. It's a must! I'm looking forward to my next visit.
