I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Sam at Arch Rivals for his wonderful job as the emcee of…read moreThe ARC Angels Foundation Trivia Night event on Sept. 8, 2017. Sam made everything in the planning stages so much easier than we had experienced in the past. He listened to our needs and requests, had wonderful suggestions, and offered easy solutions for just about everything. As we threw curve balls at him in the days leading up to the event he took care of each one. His planning and preparation was outstanding. During the evening, when we added in some additions and changes, Sam handled them seamlessly--as if it was all part of the plan from the beginning! He kept up with the schedule and kept everyone engaged. The categories were terrific and the questions challenging but fair. Many of our guests praised the job that he was doing. All in all it was an incredible evening and Sam was a big part of it. We plan to ask him next year for his services at our 2018 Trivia Night!

I've been attending trivia at Syberg's on Dorsett for about 3 years running, every Tuesday; I think…read moreI've missed maybe a half dozen times when I was out of town. It is by far the best trivia I've ever taken part in. The rounds are organized properly and coherently, the questions are varied and provide a good balance of challenge and fun, they mix up the categories regularly, each round is its own game, unlike some other annoying trivia nights where you need to know 95% of all the answers ALL NIGHT in order to get any sort of prize, and it's all free to boot. One of the big selling points(for me at least) for this trivia night is that there are rules to the game, and they are actually enforced, which is a good thing unless you're pretty much an ass. As Murph has said on more than one occasion, "It takes a special kind of person to cheat for a $10 gift card." but at other trivia events there are, in fact, no rules about cell phone use, so the music rounds are more about who can more diligently press their Shazam/Soundhound to the ceiling than what people actually know. It's just so damn satisfying when you dig deep and actually come up with the answer for some of this stuff, I mean, no one else in my group was going to know that Nick Guilder sang Hot Child in the City, hell, they didn't even know it was a guy singing. Now, aside from the trivia nights at Sybergs, this company does events and such, and I didn't really have much of a use for that until recently, I just enjoyed it at Syberg's. The event that we needed his service for happened to be a small charity event in town at a place called Deserts on the Boulevard. We pretty much walked up to Steve at Syberg's and asked if he was able to do it, exchanged emails and off we went. After he cleared up that he was free on the night in question we were locked and loaded. Steve Murphy, or Murph as we call him, is the owner of the company and usually the guy behind the microphone. This is a good thing too, because the man has his shit together. When we were setting up our amateur event he was helping us along the way with little suggestions here and there to make things run more smoothly and efficiently, he has clearly done these sort of things and understands how it all works. Other than just making everything just a little better, even stuff that he wasn't directly involved in, he has something you just can't teach, he has the voice, and on top of that he just speaks in such a way on mic that is somehow better than other DJs, he has presence. This guy could announce for the Cardinals and no one would miss John Ulett. Our event went off without a hitch, he arrived early and coped well with the venue's poor systems and could have easily brought his own if we had not been misinformed about the facilities we had at our disposal, though he did have some extra stuff anyway that made it better than it might have been. So he was more prepared than we had told him to be basically. I encourage anyone having an event needing DJ services, Karaoke, Trivia nights, or anything involving a man with a deep sexy voice, to use Sound of St. Louis. P.S. I *hate* writing reviews, but these guys deserve some exposure.

I am going to echo Sean's review and say that Steve Murphy is awesome, and he clearly knows what…read morehe's doing in the DJ-ing business. I've also been attending Syberg's trivia for awhile now--about half a year--and it's by far the BEST trivia night experience I've ever had. He definitely has "the voice" and I swear he could do radio or be an announcer!! I'm generally not so good at trivia but every so often there will be a question or two that I happen to know to help our team out. Best of all it's free! He DJs at multiple locations too so if you can't go to Westport, hit up a different Syberg's or Helen Fizgerald's. We had the pleasure of having Murph DJ for our charity event at Desserts on the Blvd. The sound quality wasn't so hot but that wasn't his fault. His voice is really clear, though, so I never have problems understanding him. I like how he mixed it up with an audio round too. it definitely got everyone's blood flowing! Sometimes he does visual rounds too which I think is very brilliant and innovative. The questions are usually spot-on in terms of increasing difficulty and #15 is always a "give me" question which is nice if you sat through a whole round of celeb trivia not having a clue about it. But that's the great thing about it...each round you get a chance to win a giftcard, and the rounds are totally different. Seriously. Hire this man. For your party or whatever. If we ever get married (LOL) we are SO hiring Murph!!!

What a fun experience! We had six of us in our group, so we did the girls against the guys. Maybe…read morethat wasn't real fair, because I think the score was girls 11, guys 4. Our host and emcee were fantastic. They made the game feel like we were actually there on a live show. He even wore a sparkly jacket to make it feel more realistic. We did the classic experience, so we had a little bit of Family Feud, Wheel of Fortune, and Price is Right. They do have drinks for purchase at the counter before you go back. A wide range from water, soda, beer, wine, and canned mixed drinks. I think I saw somewhere that they had chips and cookies as well, but really you're only there for an hour, so a beer is good enough. I would definitely recommend this if you have a group get together sometime. It was a great experience and I'm sure we will be back.

We loved all of the games literally. There was not one game that we didn't have fun in. I do feel like it was very competitive as it should be and I love that. They offered drinks as well. The hosts were both amazing and they were literally made to do that job. I can't wait to try it again with my family and friends!

Shamrock's is definitely a local favorite, and for good reason. Not only do they have great food…read moreand plenty of drink options, but their customer service consistently goes above and beyond. I've been here quite a few times and have rented the room in the back for private parties for a local club I'm part of. The food and service have always been top-notch. Tonight, though, was a little different because I brought a group of 16 freshman high school girls to Shamrock's for their first homecoming dinner. I worked ahead of time to make everything as seamless as possible and to make things easy for our waitress, and everything worked out perfectly. But honestly, none of it would have gone as well as it did without our waitress, Lexi. The girls all said their food was delicious, and they had such a great time. They also didn't have to worry about being too loud because Shamrock's is a bar and restaurant, so there are plenty of people around doing the exact same thing. Lexi was attentive, knew how to work with the girls, and seemed to understand that this was their first time going out to eat on their own without their parents. She made the whole experience so much easier and more enjoyable. The bar area is also nice and spacious, so some of the parents were able to sit on the other side and stay out of sight while still being close by. It gave the girls a little freedom while allowing the parents to keep an eye on things. The food was great, too. Unfortunately, we were so busy looking at all the pictures we had taken before dinner that we completely forgot to take pictures of our food! I love their Sham Bowl, which is always delicious. What I really love about Shamrock's is that it truly works for just about any occasion. You can stop in for a drink, have a nice sit-down dinner, host a luncheon with friends, or rent a space for a community or civic organization. We've even been there for lunch with a friend who had just had a newborn baby. And now I can add freshman homecoming to the list! From community meetings to celebrating new babies to giving a group of teenagers a special night out, Shamrock's really can be a place for all occasions. I'm very glad we have an establishment like this in our community, and I'm especially grateful for staff members like Lexi who make the experience even better.

So what was it like? The service is a mixed bag. You have to go to the service, it doesn't come to you. The menu is not too complicated. We came for pizza. And all the pizzas have an artist name. We had the Francis Bacon. It's a meat pizza that's pretty good on top but the crust was so burnt it killed the pizza joy. At $18.50 this pizza shouldn't be charcoal around the crust. On the other hand the salads were excellent. The small ranch salad was a delightful mix of romaine with bacon, heirloom tomatoes, Parmesan with some very thinly sliced onions and a delicious ranch dressing. This was the best $5.49 salad I've ever had and it was the redeeming dish for our meal. Overall the food was satisfactory in quantity but take ten points off for the burnt crust. We put in our order at the bar where we had to wait in line. Minus 10 points. The salad arrived quickly but the wait for the pizza was longer than expected. I guess they need extra time to burn the crust. Now as to ambiance. There isn't any. It's a neighborhood joint. The stools are too high and the benches outside are too hard. But in the end we enjoyed it. It's a neighborhood joint.

We hired Millennium Productions for our wedding highlight video (which also came with "special…read morefeatures" such as our ceremony vows, introductions, speeches, and dances.) Our videographer, Judd, was professional, talented, and took the time to connect with my husband and I before our ceremony. We loved his artistic ability to incorporate the important details of our wedding into our highlight video; we felt that he really listened to us and what we wanted. The finished product was great; very professional, cleanly edited, and something that we will cherish forever. However, there were some slight communication problems in the weeks leading up to our wedding and the turnover time wasn't clearly explained beforehand (we waited 4 months for our 3 1/2 minute video, almost twice the amount of time we were initially told it would take.) We also were confused about the editing process and what exactly constituted as our "final edit." While ultimately our edit requests were met, I felt like I was being annoying by asking. Not a feeling you want when you've spent thousands of dollars on a service. All of these things were very minor though and we would still highly recommend them. All in all we're VERY happy and LOVE our video! If there were a way to give 1/2 stars, this would be 4 1/2 for sure!
