We were here for a birthday and had a group of 7. Our server was good but seemed to be covering the entire back room which meant longer wait times. It wasnt a bother however.

The lighting and music were at a good level to keep a conversation and see the menu. The menu is huge, and you can find anything you want on it. The chips were typical corn tortilla chips, but the salsa was outstanding, not too hot, and plenty of cilantro for your taste buds. The main dishes arrived in a decent time. I had the spicy Tacos with chicken and chorizo; it was fantastic, a little spicy. The chorizo had a smoky flavor, and the chicken was not tough. Side dishes, rice, and beans. The rice was not sticky at all, and the beans had a smoky flavor unlike that of other Mexican restaurants. They were very tasty. The extra beef taco was filled with beef, no shortcuts there. Wife had the pableno dish. I tried the beef, which was very tender, and the pableno was excellent. My daughter and my wife said the shrimp were bigger than at most restaurants and had a great flavor. ( I'm allergic and could not try the shrimp) My daughter's dish was the spicy Nachos. Again, the beef was the most tender I have ever had at a Mexican restaurant, and I loved the white cheese queso and chorizo. It all just came together. This Mexican Restaurant is definitely a winner in my book. I will be back to try many other dishes. By the way, we went on a Monday night around 7:00 pm, it was not very busy at all.

This is the problem when you don't have people that are fluent in Japanese culture running a sushi…read morerestaurant. I'm in the process of moving to St. Louis and on my travel here this evening I saw this sign for this sushi place and I thought, it's been a while since I've had good sushi." Granted, my expectations for good sushi in farmland Missouri are not real high. But what I got in my interaction with the staff and what they gave me as an order was frankly embarrassing. I feel bad for those unfamiliar with sushi and Japanese culture who come to this place and think they're getting an authentic experience. I will tell you: they are not. It started when the server asked me whether I wanted to see the menu or I knew what I wanted. Generally, as a vegan, I have very few options, so they're pretty much the same wherever. Sometimes I might be able to get a good shiitake maki roll, but nine times out of ten, I'm limited to avocado and cucumber rolls. I asked if they had inarizushi. Blank stares. The server had no idea what I was talking about, none. I repeated it and she answered back with "unagi?," which is barbecued eel, definitely not vegan. We tried a third time and she asked about egg. I said no that's tamago. ‍ Frustrated, I broke down and looked up inarizushi on Wikipedia, which provided a picture. She exclaimed, "Oh! Tofu skin!" The itamae (sushi chef) nodded and said the same. Now I don't know about you, but even as a vegan who enjoys "tofu skin" in a variety of dishes, that sounds absolutely horrid. But there it is, listed on the menu as tofu skin. My heart actually started to hurt a little, because the Japanese words are descriptive in nature, not just of the ingredients that's contained with each roll or piece, but of the culture that goes into it. But then came the confusion of the pricing, where instead of sets where you get six pieces of a particular maki roll in one set or two pieces of 稲荷 in one order, every single piece you order was individually priced. I'm positive this is to maximize profits, because after ordering only two tofu skins and six avocados my bill was over $19. Seriously? For middle of the sticks Missouri sushi? There was no place to sit at the sushi bar while I waited, and I stood around uncomfortably feeling like I was in everyone's way while I waited for my sushi order. Eventually, I noticed there was a bench in the entrance alcoveand I sat there to wait on my sushi and immediately started a review on Yelp, knowing that I was going to write of my disappointment while giving a three star recommendation. When I got my order, the inari was the smallest I've ever seen. Seriously, I'd get bigger pieces at a Lawson's near the train station, and no doubt tastier and more filling. Worse was this abomination of avocado sushi prepared in nigirizushi style. I've been all over Japan and had never seen avocado served like this, especially when I was expecting a maki roll. I just sat in the car, and I immediately marched back in and said, "Look, I don't want this. I don't think you guys know what you're doing." I tried to explain to them how I was expecting a maki roll and they had no idea what was talking about. How can you have a sushi restaurant when you don't understand the basics of sushi? They were all confused about why I wanted my money back and why I wasn't happy. I didn't really want to get in a debate or a discussion of cultural misappropriation, but if you're looking for an authentic sushi-ya ... brother, this ain't it. I finally just looked at the chef and I said in Mandarin 我不买 "I won't buy it." And that seemed to end the discussion. The restaurant was packed. People seemed to be enjoying it, and the workers were very nice, but they don't know what they're doing. This is not Japanese sushi, it's just the Temu of version of Japanese cuisine bastardized for an American audience. Don't even get me started on putting hot mustard packs in my to go bag. Just really disappointing and inauthentic.

Today my bestie and I took a trip down to Kimmswick and made a stop at the Blue Owl Restaurant &…read moreBakery for lunch. It had been years since we had visited, and we were excited to spend the day walking around the little town and enjoying a meal at one of the places it's known for. We arrived around 11 a.m., and it was the perfect timing. There was plenty of parking, and we were able to walk right in and get seated. After lunch, we spent about an hour shopping around town, and when we came back through, the parking lot was packed and the sidewalks were much busier. I would definitely recommend arriving earlier if you want a more relaxed experience. Even though it was August, the weather was surprisingly beautiful, with temperatures in the low 70s, so we decided to sit out on the veranda. It was such a great choice. The view was peaceful, there was a nice breeze, and it felt like we were enjoying lunch somewhere special rather than just sitting inside a busy restaurant. It made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Our waitress was wonderful--very attentive and friendly. We must have been on the same wavelength because every time I asked for her opinion between two choices, she picked the exact one I was already leaning toward without me telling her. Her recommendations were spot on! We both ordered the trio, which allows you to choose three items from a selected menu. We each started with the white chili, and it was perfect for the cooler summer day. It was warm, comforting, and full of flavor. For my main dish, I chose the turkey melt on a croissant. The croissant was flaky, buttery, and absolutely delicious. I'm trying to cut back on carbs, but that plan went out the window because it was just too good. I did save half of the sandwich for the ride home, but there was no way I was leaving that croissant behind! My bestie ordered the chicken salad croissant, and she loved it as well. She said the chicken salad was flavorful, moist, and delicious, and the croissant made it even better. Of course, we couldn't leave without trying dessert. The Blue Owl is famous for their Levee High Apple Pie, but neither of us were really craving apple pie that day. Instead, we went inside to look at the dessert display, and that might have been the hardest decision of the whole visit. Everything looked amazing! I was torn between the chocolate cream pie and the French silk, and ultimately chose the French silk. It was very smooth and rich, and the flavor was delicious. My only complaint was that I personally would have preferred more whipped cream on top, and the crust was a little firmer than I like. It wasn't bad at all--it just wasn't my favorite dessert choice. If I went back, I would probably try something different next time. My bestie chose the gooey butter cheesecake, and that one was a winner. The crust was made from a gooey butter cookie, and it was such a unique and delicious twist. Overall, we had such a great day in Kimmswick. It was the perfect little escape before summer ends and school starts back up. A beautiful walk through a charming town, great conversation with a best friend, and a delicious meal made for a wonderful day. We're already looking forward to coming back!

I wish I had taken more photos because we were walking around oohing and aahing and saying, "Wow, look at this!" and "Look at that!" so much that we were already getting enough looks from people. This was easily one of the nicest grocery stores we've ever been in. The selection was incredible, and everything looked so fresh and appetizing. Coming from California, there were so many options we just don't have available to us back home. I was especially impressed by the huge selection of premade and pre-prepped meals. As someone who doesn't really cook, I kept thinking that if I lived in this area, I could probably eat a lot healthier simply because there were so many fresh, convenient options ready to grab and go. I also loved seeing so many individual-sized meals, which would be perfect for anyone shopping or cooking for just one person. And the prices! We obviously expected things to be less expensive than California, but we were still surprised by how reasonably priced everything seemed. It was genuinely hard not to buy one of everything. We're staying at a hotel that provides breakfast and dinner, so we showed some restraint and mostly picked up snacks, drinks, and water for our room. We did, however, venture into the dessert section, which was absolutely mouthwatering, and bought one of their gooey butter desserts. Good grief. PURE SUGAR. It may legitimately be one of the sweetest desserts we have ever eaten. This is something you need to eat in a fudge-sized portion, but ours came in what felt like a bread-sized paper tin, and they sell even bigger ones! I cannot imagine eating that much at once. Definitely a dessert to share...with several people. We also tried a Zevia cream soda and really liked it. We specifically chose it because of its ingredients and my husband's dietary restrictions, so finding a drink he could have that also tasted good was a nice surprise. We liked it enough that we'll be looking for more. If we were staying in the area longer, I absolutely would have gone back to try some of the prepared meals. Great selection, beautiful store, reasonable prices, and an impressive amount of fresh and convenient food options. We went in just to look around and left wishing we had a Dierbergs back home.
