OMG!! I went there for lunch. I so wish I could have taken a pic of the Tina Turner Shrimp n Grits! When the waitress set it down in front of me I quickly dug in. Amazing!!!! The best I've had outside of New Orleans! A converted gas station turned into an amazing Cajun eatery! The atmosphere was great! Service was very attentive. The owner was at the front door welcoming us in. I'm so glad I found this gem. I can't wait to come back for dinner and maybe brunch! I highly recommend this place! read more

We ordered the wings, fried green tomatoes, and blackened catfish. The wings and fried green tomatoes were actually very good, so I wish I could say the same for the rest of the experience. Unfortunately, the blackened catfish had a very strange, not-so-fresh taste that neither of us enjoyed. When I brought it to our server's attention, I was basically told there was nothing that could be done. Our server, Sarah according to the receipt, never introduced herself and was inattentive and unpleasant throughout the visit. I asked to speak with a manager, only to find out she apparently was the manager. I then asked about speaking with the owner and was told the owner would not do anything to accommodate the situation either. That was probably the most disappointing part. I understand that every customer is not going to love every dish, but good customer service is about how a business handles a legitimate concern. There was no attempt to make it right, offer an alternative, or even make us feel like the concern mattered. Considering how empty the restaurant was, the lack of attention and customer service was especially surprising. We tried this place because of the attention it received on TikTok, but unfortunately this will be our first and last visit. The wings were good, but good wings are not hard to find. Customer service is what makes people come back, and this experience gave us absolutely no reason to. Hopefully management eventually realizes that keeping customers matters just as much as getting them through the door in the first place. read more

First off, it was VERY hot. There was no AC, so there were a couple of fans running. Despite the fans, and their garage door being open, it was still extremely hot. There were also too many tables in the dining area. They had a band performing in the space. While the band was great, they took up space that could otherwise be used to create more space between the tables. As a result, I was shoulder-to-shoulder with another table. It was VERY uncomfortable. My biggest complaint was the wait times. After waiting about 15 minutes to be seated, I waited almost 20 minutes for my server to take my order. Then I waited about 45 minutes for my food and drink to arrive at my table. Also, another party arrived after me, but got their food before I got mine. The long wait times were as a result of them being severely understaffed. My server, who didn't spend a lot of time with me, was also bussing tables and working behind the bar. While eating my food, I noticed that they forgot the side order of turkey sausage I also requested. The owner stopped by my table, and I told her. However, after waiting about 20 minutes for my turkey sausage (and another cup of water), I flagged down my server, and told him to take the turkey sausage off my order, along with the slice of lemon cake I also ordered, and just give me my bill. (As it turned out, neither item was included in my order that he took.) While my food was good, it was overshadowed by the overall bad experience. VERY disappointing. read more

Austin and I are working on a project in St. Louis Missouri and we're looking for a place that sells the soul food that reminds us of home. We need to look no further! A coworker suggested quaint Café and we were not disappointed! The food is amazing, the staff, friendly, and engaging, decor wonderful, and did I say the food was amazing??? First of all, the menu huge, especially for a restaurant that is not particularly large. This first experience ensures that I will do my absolute BEST to try every one of the dishes on it! I had the shrimp habachi and it was PACKED with flavor! The shrimp were cooked to perfection, which honestly I haven't seen many people do here. To keep it 100. I'm from New Orleans so I know good shrimp when I taste them! Check this place out. I think you're really gonna enjoy it! read more

This place is newly opened in Benton Park. I was hesitant, because I have a sissy palate and don't like Cajun or soul food. I'm so glad I went. I loved everything about this cute little place. They've done a beautiful job redecorating and personalizing. The inside has high top tables and smaller low top tables. It's an old gas station, so they have huge garage doors that are open in the nice weather. Even if you sit inside on nice days, you still get a little of that patio feel. There is also seating at the bar. The outside has picnic bench style seating, which I'm not a fan of, but it's far from a deal breaker. They have fire pits and wildflower gardens. It's really lovely. I got a shrimp po' boy and asked for the remoulade on the side, which they obliged. It was fanfriggintastic! The shrimp were fried and perfectly cooked. They were of average size, which was perfect for the sandwich. There was so much shrimp. I ate probably 8 pieces just to make room for the sandwich to close. The bread was soft and fresh. I got waffle fries which were huge and delicious. They were out of cole slaw, sadly. The cocktails were great, as well. The service was outstanding. James was delightful and attentive without being overbearing. We had everything we needed. The entire staff were fantastic. I only live a few blocks away, and this is going to be a regular spot for me. read more

The staff and ambience were absolutely amazing. I got a chance to meet the owner and she was an absolute pleasure. They embody the meaning of hospitality that I've searched for since moving from Mississippi and let's not forget about the food I had the fish and Gouda grits plus tropical lunch koolaid let's just say I almost hurt myself eating and drinking so much I will most definitely be back. read more

On the outside you wouldn't think nothing about this spot but once you come inside it's like you stepped into a wholenatha place! The inside is beautiful and welcoming, the customer service is amazing! As for food: Duck Noodle Hibachi - A+ This was the most wonderful dish I have tasted. The duck was so tender and amazing. The noodles added a great touch to a hibachi style dish and the flavors they put into this were amazing! Smashed Turkey Burger - C+ This was okay. I loved the idea of a smashed turkey burger but it's hard to cook turkey like beef. Turkey meat loses its juice the longer it's cooked(can't cook turkey too long) especially if it's smashed and that what happened here. The burger was dry but did like the fresh veggies on the burger and THE FRIES!!! The fries were killer, they put some kind of crack seasoning on them cuz I cleared those in seconds. Not Yo Mama Cajun Chicken Pasta - A This was definitely a great pasta! The chicken was cooked perfectly as well as the noodles. The sauce had the little spice to it from the Cajun seasoning and I'll definitely get this again! Red Foxx Fish & Grits - A- I gave this dish this grade because the catfish was amazing as well as the shrimp. Also the grits were made with Gouda cheese with elevated the dish as well as the other flavors. Oh the desserts simple A - they both were amazing!! Banana pudding had actual banana in them. Get that Arnold Palmer - I know you'll enjoy it! read more

Took almost one and a half hours to get 2 meals. We sat at the bar and were never updated about status of meal. The lady seating everyone was kind and kept everyone updated. Wait for a seat is expected but too long of a wait for food Food was ok we had the burger and chicken w/waffles read more

Now this spot rocks with big flavors. The owners are so friendly and everything is sooooo delicious. So #stlouispescatarianapproved I got the shrimp burger because I rarely get to get a burger and it came with Gouda cheese. Holy smokes. My friend got the catfish and I snuck several bites. The spot is cute. read more

The food is so flavorful. The service was amazing. They had a band playing on Wednesday night. I had the shrimp hibachi, that I meant to eat half and take the rest home, but somehow finish my plate, because it was so good. read more

All the food was sooooooo good. We had ordered to go. While waiting there was a band playing music the vibes were immaculate especially since we were the only ones there. I had the chicken not yo mama Cajun pasta. It was fire. The only thing I wished was different was having more garlic bread with my meal. One just didn't cut it. I also ordered the angus burger. That was also really good. All the toppings tasted so fresh. The fries were well seasoned 10/10 recommend. read more

I was extremely disappointed with my experience. I found a hair in my food, which was completely unacceptable. When I brought it to the manager's attention, they had a rude attitude and didn't seem concerned about the issue. To make matters worse, the only resolution offered was taking $2 off my order, which did not reflect the seriousness of the situation. I expected much better customer service and a more appropriate response. Unfortunately, I won't be returning. read more

Food is great, but the 1 hour wait is not! I won't try as often as I would like. I hope the wait is shorter next time. read more

Atmosphere and service where great, but prices to food ratio as well as flavor is lacking. I ordered the fried green tomatoes and they were a 7/10, I got the sticky wings and they weren't anything to right home about I give them a 5/10 and my friend had the Cajun pasta she said that lacked flavor. It wasn't nasty just the price didn't equal the portion size or flavor profile. They were not busy and food came out fast. read more

So far I've enjoyed the catfish and the po boys. Good vibe and nice folks running the place!

Delicious food!! Yummy drinks, friendly staff and nice patio. You can't confront with anything on the menu. read more

My same plate of food (veggie hibachi) was offered to me three times after I had already confirmed its incorrectness. Despite waiting patiently, even when the restaurant wasn't quite busy, the food was finally made right. However, by the time it arrived, everyone at my table had already finished eating. I managed to eat some of it, but it was just okay. I took the rest home and threw it away. I decided to cook something myself instead. We won't be returning to this restaurant anytime soon. The playlist was great though :\ read more

Everybody Eats hands down has some of the nicest people I've ever met! An impromptu stop on a walk with my fiancée has now become my go to spot for some of the best wings I've had in the city to this day. The patio is also a huge vibe and dog friendly. Our server Corey was extremely helpful and awesome. The owner came out to talk to us and let us know they do live music on Wednesdays and we'll for sure be back. She also gave us a heads up on the banana pudding. Get the banana pudding! read more

So I came in on Sunday August 9th, 2026 and the owner who was very rude from the beginning was awful. She approached my daughter in a negative manner and then approached me in a negative manner as well... she asked how many in my party I said technically 3 however the 3rd person is own her way. She said the only seating is outside I said oh okay.. how long for the seating on the inside she stated 2 hours mind you I drove 45 minutes to get here but she didn't know that. I explained okay I will sit outside. So she reiterated that it would be a 1 hour wait for food and I said okay what's the problem what's with the attitude? She said let's start over again and refused my service (mind you I didn't cus I didn't yell or anything) she didn't want me to have a negative experience and wanted me to come back a different day! Absolutely not her energy horrible, customer service horrible I will not support an establishment like this! read more

Very disappointing ... I ordered fish and grits and after a hour I was brought shrimp and grits. The young man apologized and said their menu had changed and he wouldn't charge me for it. Then he offered to bring a piece of fish on the side and I keep it. I said ok. He brought the bill and said he discounted the piece of fish. I was charged full price for the shrimp and grits that I didn't order or care for and charged an additional $9 for the piece of fish to make it right. We asked to speak with the manager and the young man said he would just take the fish out his tips. We felt bad because he was young and just decided to pay the bill as it was. The last and final straw was we couldn't get a printed receipt. He said he closed the check and ran the card but it didn't print I won't go back nor will I recommend it to anyone. read more
