    Impossible burger
    Maggie H.

    I dislike rating 4 stars for restaurants just because I wasn't wowed, but I'm reminding myself that I've got nothing bad to say, that this is not a low rating, and that my dining companion also was not wowed. I'll throw Barrio a bone, too: I'm a picky vegetarian with what some people consider is poor taste, so don't yinz listen to me anyway. Ready? Go! I've walked by Barrio so many times the last few years on the way to Clementine's or Sasha's. I finally checked out and experienced the menu when Sasha's was too packed to seat 2 people a couple of weeks ago. Barrio was so much less busy than Sasha's (well, obviously). We ate outside on the sidewalk across from Concordia Park. You order at the bar and they bring the food to you. My veggie burger was good. Not the best burger I've ever had, but it accomplished its goal of getting eaten. I can't remember whether I finished it there or took it home to finish. We weren't in a drinking mood, so not much else to review here.

    We found Barrio randomly looking for something to eat while we were out. The bar is in a neighborhood part of Clayton near one of the elementary schools. There are lots of windows and natural light. The bar keep and our waiter were very attentive, we were there mid afternoon/early evening and it wasn't busy at all. The food was decent. The fish was cooked well although the sandwhich was very plain. The fries were delicious (love a good fry) The salad was delicious. They don't use traditional dressing and I was worried because I'm not a fan of mustard and it's mustard based but it was nice! The crispy chicken on top added flavor and texture . We might return on a day when it's not close to the end of the night.

    Onion Rings are to die for! Great spot with lovely patio. Burgers & Tacos. Both delicious - we will be back!

    I've been to this spot a couple times for drinks but never the food since it was so late. This time I tried the food and the best is the Killer B Burger. Everyday out it from the burger the brisket, bbq sauce was amazing. Didn't like the turkey burger kinda dry and the chicken sandwich was okay as well as the fries. If you do go get that frozen cherry limeade. It was fire. Love the patio to sit outside and eat and it was great service.

    Now a regular in our rotation, I'd say we come at least once a month. In addition to great burgers, their Caesar salad, Caesar salad wrap, rotating specials, quesadilla, and fish and chips are all amazing. The cocktails are great, they have an amazing wine selection (they're owned by Sasha's wine bar), and the staff is amazing - friendly and accommodating. The patio is excellent and they open the windows on nice days. Something for everyone and super kid and dog friendly too!

    Central location to stop by for a drink or get a quick bite. I selected this place for my Friday night end of the summer get together / birthday celebration because it was central for both my STL city, and STL county & St Charles county friends. Pup friendly patio is an added bonus. Parking was a challenge on Friday night which appeared to be concern of a handful of guests. Dan, the owner was easy to work with throughout the planning process until the day of our event. No option to reserve ahead of time but owner knew ahead where he kept looking out for tables that would clear up. Great venue option if you also prefer to order / pay at the counter at your convenience instead of having to request split checks. Drink options available whether boozy or mocktail or NA were all available. I unfortunately forgot to take photos of my frozen Cherry limeade boozy drink for the night but I do have photos to show how this venue brought our group together. I wanted churros but will have to save that for my next visit. A memorable time together & next goal is to try to attend first Friday karaoke event.

    I've seen this place quite a few times being in this neighborhood and never stopped in to see what it was about. Today after grabbing ice cream next door we decided to stop in here to grab a drink to cool off. The woman at the bar was pleasant and nice while we ordered and she served us. She recommended the vodka frozen lime slush type of drink. It was mixed well and service was fast. The inside of this place is a little on the smaller side but they have plenty of seats outside. We didn't get a chance to try the food but from looking at other customer's plates it seems to be good. If you want a quick drink and it to be reasonably priced. Give this place a try. P.S. If you enjoy IPA beers they have a good variety of choices.

    This bar was so cute! Perfect for a random stop and have a drink or a bite. My friends and I loved it. The vibes were definitely relaxing and the service was great. The staff were very helpful and quick with orders.

    This place is nice to grab lunch at. We had a group of 8 and they let us push tables together which was helpful. The cocktail I ordered was delicious and the Brisket Sandwich was great, with a hint of heat in the BBQ sauce. Service was pretty quick. A friend ordered the Onion Rings and they were amaaazing! I think the only thing that rubbed me wrong about the place was the prices. They seemed reasonable for a sandwich with a side, but everything was priced a la carte. It was just a little shy of " worth the money."

    Nice diversion during my walk!  Chili dog is amazing and the crinkle fries are perfection!

    Stopped by while on a walk on a gorgeous afternoon. Chili dog was amazing and the crinkle cut fries were perfection!

    Came in out of snowy cold weather into a warm and casual space where I could see the sidewalks and street outside but was so very glad to be enjoying this small but inviting dining space. Nothing fussy about the food, just easy dining with sandwiches, burgers, fries, soups and beverages. Casual fare for any taste.One server but meals were served quickly and graciously. Nice dining experience for lunch.

    Great place to come kill time when there is a wait list at Sasha's down the block. I came on a Thursday night and they had live music! The menu is short and simple. The drink menu has some cocktails, wines, and beer. The food menu has burgers, sandwiches, salad, sides and shakes. .|\---/| | o_o | .\_^_/..2021

Clayton was busy, so street parking was hard to find. Once seated, we were greeted with friendly service and were brought water. I ordered a ginger beer with cranberry juice added to it for a refreshing mocktail. We ordered the Squeaky Cheese to start, the golden-brown cheese curds were gooey and had the perfect crunch. They were served with marinara and a serrano dill aioli. The aioli had just the right amount of spice, complementing the dill flavor. The marinara was saucy and also good. I ordered the Bacon Jam Burger with fries. The burger was juicy, sweet, and had a nice crunch. The bacon jam was subtle, but it enhanced the overall flavor. My only complaint was that the bottom bun came out a bit soggy causing the burger to lose structure as I ate it. The fries were thin and crunchy!

The space itself is very chic and modern. Our event was on a patio on an extremely hot and humid day. While the idea of the glass ceilings is nice to let in the natural light, it unfortunately made me feel like I was roasting in a greenhouse with the sun coming in - the fans didnt do much for air movement and unfortunately there was just no breeze that day so the open balcony didnt help! I also found the chairs to be very uncomfortable. They are deep and may be comfortable for a tall man, but for a women of average height, you cant sit back in the chair without your legs sticking out straight like a child so you have to sit forward on the edge of the seat and try not to slump. I ordered the Forest Park Fizz which was just ok. The charcuterie board was suffering from being in the heat so I cant fault them for that, but the beef filled pastries and the risotto balls were both pretty lame. I would come back to try a different drink and something else from the menu but definitely not on a super hot & humid day!

    Wright's Tavern is Clayton's neighborhood upscale seafood and steakhouse: a small dining room, an…read moreintimate bar, good luck trying to get a reservation before 10pm. For those of us who eat at 5 and are in bed by 8, that's a non-starter. So for a birthday dinner we did the thing you're not supposed to do, showed up on a whim at 5 p.m. on a Thursday with no reservation, fully prepared to be turned away. All four bar seats were open. We took two. Sometimes the shot goes in. The room is modern chic with an old-school soul, green-and-white striped plates, the footprint is small, the kitchen is open, and the staff are polished and professional without being stiff. Jose, the bartender, has been behind that bar for most of the time the restaurant's been open, and he was the best kind of host, warm, unhurried, and honest. Yes, walk-ins are possible. No, don't count on it; some nights there's a line out the door of people hoping to squeeze in. Get there early and pray, or plan on a late supper. The Old Fashioned was solid, served over a mound of crushed ice with a fat orange wedge, which is not how I usually take one, but it went down easy. The crab cake, though, won the night, among the best I've ever had, on par with our favorite Chicago steakhouse...Bavette's. Thick, honest pieces of crab (not filler pretending to be crab), a perfectly crisp golden crust, a scatter of chives, sitting in a buttery sauce you'll want to chase with bread. Order it. Share it only if you must, even though I'm about to tell you to share everything else. Confession, I don't like spending money on pricey salads. Moreover, I don't like blue cheese. And yet the wedge, which they graciously split into two plates for us, turned me into a living contradiction. I'd order it with enthusiasm. Don't look for me to bring that spirit to any other restaurant, this is an exception, not a new rule for me. Crisp iceberg, blue cheese crumbles, a crunchy crumb topping, and a pool of herby vinaigrette underneath. Then there's the bacon: not bits, a full thick-cut slab draped over the top like a trophy. Bacon GOLD. It deserves its own line on the menu...Wright's Tavern, follow Bavette's lead and put the bacon on the menu, we'll all thank you for it. Now the steak. We went with the 22 oz. New York strip, and for what you're paying at a place like this, I expected the main event to be the main event. It arrives pre-sliced, showered in chives, sitting in its own jus. Beautiful plate. The flavor was spot on, no complaints there. The problem was the cutting. I don't know whether it was the cut itself, whether it got pre-sliced with the grain instead of against it, whether it didn't rest long enough, or whether the steak knife just wasn't up to the job, but I was sawing our medium-rare steak. More pressure than I'm used to, the knife catching on the fat, and by the end I'd left a small graveyard of partial segments and rubbery fat on the plate. Maybe it was just a bad cut on a good night. It happens. But at a steakhouse, the steak is the franchise player, and the franchise player had an off game. The side, though, quietly stole some of the steak's minutes. I'd never had dauphinoise potatoes, so I had to try them: paper-thin sliced potatoes baked au gratin until the top goes golden and the middle turns creamy. Excellent. And here's my free consulting for the kitchen: crumble some of that wedge-salad bacon over the top as bits and you've got a stellar side. You already have the bacon. Just walk it across the kitchen. Dessert brought it back. The apple cinnamon cheesecake is really light, none of that giant, dense brick that's the calling card of many cheesecakes, topped with soft spiced apple slices and a streusel crumble, and it was excellent. The scorecard: crab cake and cheesecake were the spotlight, the salad and the potatoes were the surprise, and the entrée was, oddly, the letdown. If Wright's Tavern were a TV character: it's Don Draper. Stay with me. Handsome, clearly talented, a real man's man and a ladies' man, magnetic in a small dark room with a drink in hand and flawed in a few key places. Everything Don touches at the office is brilliant; it's the thing that should matter most in his life (being a father, husband, good business partner) that he can't quite get right. That was our steak. I'm giving Wright's Tavern some grace here, because everything else was so well delivered and this little nook of a restaurant has "future regular" written all over it. I'm coming back for another steak, and I'm expecting redemption. Until then: 4.5 out of 5. The only thing keeping this from a perfect score is the one dish that's supposed to carry the team.

The restaurant felt very upscale - service was extremely attentive and fantastic.

My personal favorite was the crab cake - I've never gotten so much crab meat in one before and the sauce was incredible! Caesar salad was good too. The steak to fry ratio on the steak frites was a bit off (steak was fairly small) but I appreciated that they don't skimp on sides at all! The French dip was the most meat I've ever had in one. Sadly, we were not able to save room for dessert, but I cannot wait to go back! Worth every penny, absolutely.

    There's something about a place in Clayton insisting: don't call me a wine bar, I'm a wine dive…read more Okay. We see you. You're a wine bar. Nothing divey about a hip cocktail or hip deviled eggs -- these are sophisticated modern twists, the exact move wine bars make and dives don't. A chalkboard of specials and weathered seating gesture at the aesthetic; the rest of the room knows. Kendall Roy of restaurants -- comes from privilege, wants badly to be of the people. It's a bit, and mostly the kitchen and bar back it up. Nevertheless, we arrived to a full room, hour wait for a table, but we fortunately arrived to snag the last first come patio table. The bar was also full, by the way, which felt neighborhood like, people clearly like this place during happy hour. The old fashioned makes the case: Old Grand-Dad Bonded, pickled rye, cognac, butterscotch bitters. Two whiskeys and a bitter you won't find at an actual dive. Rich, a little sweet. The harissa deviled eggs keep going -- fried shallots, roasted red peppers, cilantro, marinated tomato jam. You know, just like the old dive with the $1 PBR.Deviled eggs for people that don't like deviled eggs. However, we love deviled eggs...foreshadowing. The short ribs are the headline -- fall-apart tender over whipped potatoes substantial enough to stand up to the meat, gravy spot on. Eats like a perfectly executed roast dinner. The brie burger is the sneaky second hit, genuinely decadent, bacon with the cheese melting into the beef. The service was good and pleasant and that felt more like dive-friendly, where you might expect a wine "bar" to be snooty or full of themselves. 4.4 Stars Picking Nits: hip deviled eggs that reach past what they can hold. Tomato jelly on top is a lot going on, in the wrong way, and the egg disappears under it. These are trying to be hip deviled eggs more than they're trying to be good deviled eggs. Every ambitious kitchen has one plate that tries too hard; this appears to be one. A 5 needs those eggs landing, in the same way the entrees excelled. Regardless, we'll be back.
