What a great time and experience Extra Wavy is! I came here for a girls night and it ended up being such a refreshing new spot for us to check out. The decor is modern and fits well with the raw bar vibe, it's still elevated and an intimate space. I was in the midst of doing dry January but the cocktails my friends received looked wonderful and well crafted. Our appetizers were all delicious: hamachi crudo (I've never had anything like that before- loved the melon/ caviar combo), whipped ricotta was fire, and loved the butter that came with the ricotta. I had the burger for my entree and it was delicious- smashed wonderfully with the manchego. The real winner tho was my friends crab pasta. I've thought about it several times since and will definitely be getting that next time. Bravo, Extra Wavy!

Extra Wavy absolutely rules. The staff, the thoughtfully curated ambiance, the food, the drinks - genuinely everything is top tier. I love sitting at the bar and watching the bartenders be completely in their element. They have a weeknight happy hour that is quite excellent with creative discounted drinks and unique food options - perfect for a solo bar sit. The popcorn shrimp with curry mayo was, quite frankly, one of the best apps I've ever had. On the regular menu, the Plot Twist is also one of the best drinks I've ever had. You'd have no idea it's a margarita. They also have mini martinis!! A mini espresso martini as dessert? Sign me up. Their fries are advertised as salt and vinegar flavored, but don't let it scare you! It's not super strong and pairs so nicely with the flavors of whatever delightful meal you are eating. Seriously. How do they do that? Lastly, don't sleep on the chocolate cake. My friend and I were in awe by it. I love Extra Wavy. Thank you, folks at Yellowbelly, for making this new gem of a joint.

Extra Wavy is a really fun addition to the STL food scene. The atmosphere is upbeat and stylish with that cool bar energy that makes it perfect for a night out. It feels social, a little buzzy, and great for sharing plates with friends. Cocktails were excellent and the food was fresh and creative. The lobster roll The menu has a lot of interesting options that make you want to order a few things for the table and try a bit of everything.

Came here with a friend and it was soo good. Parking lot is a bit small so I had to across the street. Once I got there, we were seated quickly. Everything on the menu looked great so we decided to split a few things. We ordered grilled oysters, salt and vinegar fries, shrimp skewers, Panzanella salad and chocolate cake for dessert. There was much more I wanted to try! Service was great! Food came out in a timely manner. The space is much larger than I remembered. Will def go again and try some of the larger plates.

Came here with a friend for the happy hour. I'd never been here before but have heard good things. It's got a nice big parking lot and we were able to get bar seats right away on a Monday night. Their menu was great with lots of yummy seafood options. We got a chicken sandwich and fries off the happy hour menu to split. Both were delicious and we were in the mood for more so we got the shrimp. A stand out for me was the cocktails. I had three. A French 75, a lemon drop martini, and the cutest little cosmo marTINY which is a baby martini. Everything tasted delicious. The inside was beautifully decorated and the wait staff was very fun. The bartender chatted with us a lot and it was enjoyable! I would love to come here again, maybe for a company happy hour.

Dined here with my husband at the end of December, but haven't been able to stop thinking about our meal since! The restaurant interior is clean and sleek, and the vibes and service are immaculate. Our waiter that evening was incredible and so attentive; he gave us some great menu recommendations and was very accommodating. For drinks, we started off with a Plot Twist (cherry limeade vibes) and a Confetti Cowboy (smooth, nutty, and slightly tart). Both drinks were exceptional! For food, we ordered the scallop crudo, crab pasta, and lamb burger. The scallop crudo was light and citrusy, and the almonds on top were an interesting and unique touch. The crab pasta was decadent and delicious, definitely a must-order if you visit! The lamb burger was also delicious and flavorful. We added the salt and vinegar fries on the side, and I'm so glad we did. The fries!!! Omg they're so good!! If you love salt and vinegar chips, you have to try these. By this time we had also ordered a couple of the mar-tiny's. We got the Perfect Martini and the Cosmopolitan. Both were well-crafted and tasty. It was a fantastic meal overall, and we would love to visit again the next time we're in St Louis.

Burger and salt and vinegar fries

Came back for a light dinner - my husband and I split the burger and upgraded to salt and vinegar fries. Holy crap these fries are awesome. Great service again. Drinks were awesome. Definitely a cool spot that we'll be back to.

Been back 2x and can't recommend the fish & chips and crab pasta highly enough.... We got them both times . Massive piece of fresh fried fish with my favorite salt & vinegar fries. Oysters & mignonette are delightful, as are the crudos. A surprisingly large & busy space. Love this as a great dinner spot before bopping around the Lou!

Baked oysters
Thao N.

By far one of my top fav restaurants in St. Louis this year. The food at Extra Wavy is amazing. I highly recommend the baked oysters, the crab pasta, and the lobster doughnut. The service was amazing, with our server being incredibly sweet and helpful. The ambiance is unique and gives off vibes similar to Yellowbelly and The Lazy Tiger (which is all under the same group). I've been recommending Extra Wavy non-stop and am finally getting around to writing this review!

It was the lamb meatballs!!
Terrilyn L.

So where to start?, the Shazam set on auto?, The adorable design of the place with interesting art ? Or the delightful food in taste and presentation?? Or how the waitress had recommendations ready?!!!! Let's discuss the food and drink... that is a big reason I go to a restaurant.... I am a foodie... We had baked oysters with hot honey!! That's a tasty modern twist ! Then we tried the lamb meatballs... they were served in a white and red sauce.. delicious... the chicken thighs were moist... but normal.... We also had the crab pasta... great flavor there too! An incredibly pleasant experience... I will return! Oh and drinks!!!! My table favorite was frothy tequila based drink!!'

Fish and chips

This restaurant was so good last week, had to run it back this week. Make you sure you make a reservation as they even book the bar seats. Drinks, service, and food are top tier. This restaurant is the sister company to @yellowbelly so they knew how to get things right. I highly recommend the lamb meatball, lobster donut (made with sweet potatoes), and the classic cheeseburger.

Hot Take

That cocktail was to DIE FOR! A friend and I had a reservation here before a concert at Enterprise Center. We picked out an entree and a starter, and shared both. The food was perfectly cooked and presented beautifully. Our server was attentive and explained everything well. The interior is lovely, though the music is loud enough that it's a struggle to hold a conversation. I just don't understand why restaurants feel the need to have their background music at such high levels.

Whipped Ricotta
Maggie J.

We had a lovely girls night dinner at Extra Wavy the other night! First, the interior is so cute and charming so that won me over immediately. But the food and cocktails were delicious as well. Our waitress was wonderful and super helpful with our friend who has quite a few food allergies (thank you, Ali!) We'll definitely be back!

The menu follows right along with their creative, seasonal, and whimsical creations. I was here was a very last minute planned birthday gathering after a series of unfortunate events leading up to my birthday kept planning from happening sooner. There were only 6 of us, but they still made sure the dinner was spectacular and special for my birthday. The food was phenomenal and I need a whole series to go over the plethora of wines, beers, mocktails, cocktails, and more they offer! Having a mocktails list for my bestie was just an added bonus on top of everything else! I can't wait to come back again and try more deliciousness! Open the door, follow the hallway labeled "The Bellwether" to the elevator, select floor 3, enjoy the experience!

This is a very cute restaurant and gives you nice cozy vibes! Service was fast and efficient, which was nice for brunch. It wasn't too busy that morning. They also have a lot outside which makes parking very convenient. They have a pretty good assortment of options for breakfast and they had a special of a brunch burger, which someone in my party really enjoyed. I tried a tomato basil omelette which was OK. I think it needed a bit more flavor. The potatoes that came with it were very tasty.

The vibe is classic, elevated, and gives true cocktail lounge energy -- not loud or chaotic, just intentional and well put together. Now let's talk about what we came for: the drinks. We ordered the Old Fashioned flight, and when I say they did not come to play... they did not come to play. Each one was crafted differently, and you can tell there's real skill behind the bar. These are not bartenders -- these are mixologists. Every drink was balanced, strong (in a good way), and thoughtfully made. Quick tip: If you plan on getting the Old Fashioned flight, make this your last stop of the night... because you will feel it. Service was great, drinks came out in a timely manner, and the overall experience felt elevated from start to finish. Highly recommend if you're looking for a true cocktail experience in St. Louis.

Additionally, both Caesar salads were listed for a protein add when only one of the two had that addition. We did not call attention and tipped on the stated amount but this as a dirty way to trump up the bill and related tip. Beware! While the drinks/food are good this leaves a bad taste.

But the bartender was quick and the food, mac and cheese, came out in no time. The winter sangria was a serious drink. Not a punchy, fruity sangria. This was a winey sangria. It was a pretty serious drink. I'd probably get a weaker, sweeter drink next time, because that is my taste. The mac and cheese was pretty good. Quite hot! It came packed in this little bowl.

The cocktail list is solid, and the beer selection is seriously impressive, packed with a great mix of local breweries and unique options. There's also a nice outdoor seating area, but honestly, the magic of this spot is at the bar. The atmosphere there really brings everything together. One of the coolest touches is the large display of vinyl records, it adds a ton of character and gives the whole place a unique, almost nostalgic energy. We didn't try the food this time since we just stopped in for drinks, but it's definitely on the list for next visit. Looking forward to coming back and spending more time enjoying this gem of a spot.

Their drink program is STELLAR! Over the course of my group's visit we tried what felt like most of their seasonal cocktail menu. Highlights were the Mexitalian, Peach Bite, and Savannah Slammer. Nobody had a drink they didn't like! The LA vibe does come with the LA price though....whenever I pay over like $12 for a cocktail in STL I cringe a little bit. I'm a bit torn on the food. Best deviled eggs I've had in my life, and the Brussels sprouts caesar was lovely. The poutine was also super yummy. My Cuban sandwich was fine, as were the onion rings. They had a great crunch, but the onion on the inside was very thin. Plus a $2 up charge for 4 onion rings was a bit much, I thought. I wanted an entree they ran out of, so I could have just been tainted by that. Nothing was bad by any means! Dessert was good. We opted for cookies for easy sharing, and we liked them! Get the cookie dough ice cream with them. It was loaded with cookie dough. I'm excited to try them again, and hopefully get the entree I wanted! They also have a pretty good happy hour it seems.

The staff was hustling! Stews was busy, but felt comfortable and not crazy. The Menu had drinks on one side and food on the other. The patron next to me ordered a Mule and it looked really good so I ordered that and it tasted as good as it looked. I knew I had to get the Brussels Sprouts and they did not disappoint. It was a pretty good-sized order so I had some to take home for anther meal, yum! I also ordered Lo Mein and enjoyed that immensely, as well. We had somewhere else to be after eating so it was nice to get in and get seated, order drinks, order food all in a timely manner. It wasn't rushed at all, and everyone pitched in with serving and all of it. Well-orchestrated service. If you are trying to remember things that came before and you are thinking of the Wood Shack, you are correct! I thought it was but it had been a while so I asked and our server confirmed :).

Pro Tip: GO ALONE! lol the tables for one open a lot faster than they do for larger parties. The entire inside holds about 35 people. When STL weather cooperates, the front patio doubles the size of the place. Do with that what you will. You have been warned so plan accordingly! NOW FOR THE FOOD! Order The Salmon! Order the brussel sprouts. I wasn't a fan of the T-Pockets as they are NOT traditional crab ragoon. Think, jalapeño poppers but with cream cheese and crab. ORDER A COCKTAIL! I've had their Manhattan and an "After Dark". If you are a bourbon person, you can't lose on either of those. Drinks range from $10-$14. THE STAFF: The space is tiny and is always packed, that alone is a recipe for disgruntled guests and employees BUT NOT HERE. The Stew's team is always friendly and cool under pressure. They have seating and serving down to a science. Kudos! AMBIANCE: Think intimate bar in Japan. Can't imagine that, then visit Stew's. Thank me later.
