We ordered the special event drink called Rio and a cherry blossom matcha latte. Both were good but make sure to adjust the sweetness if you're not a sugary person. Their drinks are on the sweeter side so the matcha latte we got we did 25% and it was still a little sweet but still it's a great place and the employees were very nice!

If you liked Tous Les Jours, this place is 100% for you! It has the same self-service gimmick then…read moreyou pay by the counter, so when it just opened I got super excited to try. It has incredibly nice vibes and is really spacious. There are some seating, and lots of trays and tongs. There is a wide selection of desserts and even drinks to choose from. I tried their mochi doughnut and brought a loaf of red bean bread. For anybody wondering, the bread expires in four days. Everything tasted good and wasn't too sweet. It was pleasing to eat taste and texture wise, and felt fresh. Olive Bakery is a nice place, I think about it a lot and I hope to come again even if it is a long drive. It is worth it.

Olive Bakery has quickly become a go-to for us. It's hard to order wrong -- everything we've tried…read morehas been fresh, soft, and nicely balanced without being overly sweet. The pork floss bun is my favorite: airy, pillowy bread with that perfect sweet-savory combo and creamy spread. The purple potato bun is just as good -- smooth, gently sweet filling wrapped in tender bread that feels comforting rather than heavy. Great variety, reasonable prices, and easy to grab a mix to share. We'll definitely be back.

Fun shopping experience with well stocked shelves from around the world…read more They now have Chinese, Mexican, Caribbean, Korean, African and other food shelves. We lived in China from 2011 to 2020 and this brings back all the fun of Chinese markets with friendly people, lots of Chinese and other languages spoken here. It is a melting pot of international shoppers! Great variety of cooking greens and specialized mushrooms. Also Asian style pots and pans, bowls, plates, and odd kitchen devices. Vegetables are much higher quality than a place like Shnucks and cheaper too! Enormous variety of frozen dumplings, stuffed buns, onion cakes, and others-and they're great and I buy them! Can't recommend this place highly enough.

This place has a huge menu, so it was a little overwhelming, but I think we did a good job lol. This place shares parking with other businesses, so parking can be limited depending on time of day. They have the standard big, banquet tables inside, and a fish tank for your little ones to enjoy. The service was friendly and DIRECT - so if you need to be coddled, you will not get that here lol. Be ready to eat and know what you want. I want to come back because I want to get their dim sum, and we moved from AZ where dim sum was available all day... so that was a bummer.

Party of 6 for a birthday and we ordered a number of delicious plates…read more * pan fried dumplings * sweet and sour chicken * crispy beef * beef fried rice, Hong Kong seafood noodles I can't remember the rest but there were at least 2-3 more... and everything was delicious. I've been coming here since I was a kid and it's never failed to be a great meal and good times. I'll always come back! Also the wait staff was so nice. Like extra nice. You'd think we were VIP or something and some of the other guests they knew by name and hugged them. What a great restaurant:)

My favorite place for dim sum. As long as you don't look too closely at the restaurant, you're…read morefine. If you look too closely, you will notice that it's not exactly the cleanliest, there's not a lot of attention to detail in the atmosphere and someone is usually smoking downstairs which drifts up into the dining room and is quite unpleasant. I only really notice it when seated at a table that borders on the staircase. My favorites are the shrimp long noodles and they pour a nice sauce over it and cut it with scissors for you, the shrimp and chive fried dumplings that the server brings in the cart that rolls around and makes for you, the salt and pepper shrimp or calamari, the pickled cucumbers, & the duck. Service is always friendly although there is sometimes a language barrier. Parking can be tricky, but it's worth the effort.

Since I have been posting all the places I took my brother on spring break, I feel I should mention…read morewe went for dim sum at Lulu's! We were in for an early lunch Sunday with that spring forward nonsense. And we loved picking things from the steamer cart and others. The flavors are awesome as are the textures. Different dumplings for different things and I got a few pics but missed others. I find the carts are great for meeting hunger where it is -- quick and can order as you eat rather than order all up front. Going with a bigger group is lots of fun for all the things you can try but even with just two of us a range of small plates really hits the spot. The cart folks check in often til you say no more for a while but appreciate that the owner also checks in.

Absolutely delicious! There was barely any wait time, and the service was quick. The portions are…read morehuge, and everything was also so flavorful:)

I've been a regular at Cate Zone Chinese Café for a long time and usually go once or twice a month…read more I always order the crispy fish and mala tofu, and up until recently, I loved this place enough to justify a 30 minute drive. Unfortunately, my most recent visit completely changed that. I went on Sunday, 11/23, the weekend before Thanksgiving. I worked from 6-3 that day and placed my usual order online around 1:00-1:30 pm for ASAP pickup so I could grab it before their lunch break. I even left work early to make it there. When I arrived around 2:40 pm, I was told my order wouldn't be ready until 5:00 pm and that I would have to come back. I showed them my order confirmation, which originally showed a pickup time around 2:50 pm. Even when I refreshed the website, it showed 3:30 pm, still nowhere near 5:00. The cashier, a young man, was dismissive and didn't seem to care at all that my time had been wasted or that the information given online didn't match what I was being told in person. This was extremely frustrating and honestly unacceptable, especially for a place I've been loyal to for so long. I wasted my time, left work early for nothing, and left without food. As much as I've loved Cate Zone in the past, this experience was enough to make me question whether I'll be returning.

My niece and I agreed that these soup dumplings are the best we've had since tasting them in NYC!…read more The soup dumplings are fantastic, the cucumber salad was crisp and perfectly seasoned. The menu is short, but all you really need to know is they have the best soup dumplings in St Louis. Chicken, pork or beef. We tried pork & chicken and loved them both. Ordering is done at a kiosk and then they bring your food to your table. We loved it and can't wait to go back.

Soup dumplings... as advertised. Small restaurant located on Olive east of I-170. Few seats…read moreavailable so plan to eat and run. Most seat 4 people so not good for groups. Also at peak times (lunch) parking may be a struggle. The dumplings were good. You get 8 per order ($10-$13 depending on filling). The table has vinegar, soy sauce and chili sauce available. A couple of other items available but it's mainly the dumplings. While good I'm being told the price has gone up recently. Honestly, I left still wanting something else to eat.

ome girlfriends and I went out to eat here because it was new to us. We were quickly seated, but…read morethen had to wait a while before we were addressed. That was a bummer. However, I will tell you that Eddie turned it around. He was incredible. Sure, normally wait staff will tell you "oh yes great choice" so I asked if he would actually tell us if things were bad. Now, he didnt say anything was bad, but he did say he felt this other dish was better than what a person ordered because it had more flavor and yada yada. A honest man. Love to see that. Japanese Curry = Little spicy, but great flavor. Yum. Wagyu and bacon bao = amazing. Get it. Pork belly boa = a little dry, bummer. Fried shrimp boa = good. Fries = 100/10. Perfectly crispy. Amazing. Also a little thing, but the light on table had three different settings and I just really appreciated that. Treat yourself to this small restaurant tucked away in Clayton and go visit by boy Eddie.

So lets start here, I went here for Clayton Restaurant Week. I wasn't excited to go but my friend…read moreshe wanted to try it. It was one of the COLDEST days of the year like 5 degrees out. We had reservations but it was so cold we went early praying that they had open seating. We were in luck the bar was open. Inside it was swanky, I liked the aesthetic. if you are looking for a place that's ultra private, this isnt it. but it would be an awesome date night. The bartender was welcoming and open. I was enthralled as they made the cocktails. They answered random questions and helped us picked something for our palate. I had the Paloma (Palo-Ho-HO-Ma) it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!! i mean like go just to get one of those. Then i had the sweet chili popcorn tofu. That was also good. Next I had Tom Kha. Refreshing spicy creamy soup. almost licked the bowl. Then i chose three different bao sandwiches. chicken, the pork belly, and the shrimp tempura. All the sandwiches were great, but after all the food i ate i was so full i couldn't appreciate them like they deserved. Now all the food AND the drink was for $40.00 You see I gave them 5 stars. I usually don't do that and this was my first time at the establishment. The food was so good that I started talking to the persons next to me at the bar and looking at their food selection. I will definitely be back . Are you still reading this, why aren't you in the car driving there yet.
