Nevertheless some of the best donuts in the city can be found here. Check them out whether your in CWE, downtown or just want the best the city has to offer in donut culinary! read more

Yoooooo. Yall know donuts are my LIFE. I'm so happy to finally get around to trying Pharoah's donuts. I got 2 vanilla sprinkle donuts for my daughters. They were so delicious, soft and perfectly sweet. I have been back twice since then. They are a little pricey. I spent six dollars on two donuts. The customer service is also great every time we come in. Will definitely come back for my twice a month cheat breakfast meal. read more

OMG! Best donuts I have ever had, hands down. In an era when the Dunkin Donut has shrunk and it takes three or four to feel full, Pharaohs is bucking the trend. I walked to the small location in the Central West End. Parking looked limited. They bring the donuts in from another location but they were still warm when I got them! Can't recall if any seating inside but there are sidewalk benches on the street outside. Easy to walk or drive past the small and unassuming storefront so keep your eyes peeled. Black-owned and staffed business. Very friendly folks. Highly recommended. read more

The ascetic of Pharoahs Donut is not much. They can do much better to make it more appealing. They don't have any decor. The service was nice. There was only one staff member present. She did a great job of taking care of us. She suggested other things as well. The donuts are amazing. The were fresh and very delicious .

One of my friends loves this donut place and says it's one of her favorites in Saint Louis so I decided to give it a try! It's a small hole in the wall donut shop in the Central West End (kind of discreetly tucked away into a corner). Inexpensive and no frills. I like the glazed ones' texture! The cinnamon one was a bit harder and a bit too sweet (but they are donuts after all)! read more

Pharaoh's has become a household staple given how reliable the quality is and how well-priced everything is. It's so easy to overlook it on a walkabout in Maryland Plaza because it's a bit of a hole-in-the-wall, but it's definitely worth checking out. Service was quick and good. They've got all the classics and some fun ones that seem to be on rotation/based on season. The classics are as you'd expect them to be. Some of my favorites that I've tried are the cinnamon roll one (the perfect combination between a light, glazed donut and the flavors and swirl of a cinnamon roll) and the apple fritter (just such a solid pick with flavor and texture). They close pretty early and can run out every so often, so it's recommended to grab your donuts earlier in the day if possible! read more

I've been to this donut shop several times. I've usually had the chocolate long johns. Each time I've had them, they are very messy to try and eat and the paper is wrapped around the chocolate side so that when you try and pull it off it removes a lot of the chocolate. The chocolate that is on the long john seems to have a more finely granulated sugar texture. In other words, it's not a smooth type of chocolate. It also doesn't seem to have a very chocolatey flavor to me. I won't say that their donuts are bad. It's just that I guess I prefer a different type of donut. The service is always been prompt and polite. As far as the interior of the shop goes, it's fairly plain with one main glass case with the donuts displayed. read more

*It's true. I didn't believe it, but it's true. This is the best donut in the country! I've lived in this city for 5 years and I've never been here because there is another donut shop much closer to me that is fabulous and I've always thought, how much better could Pharoah's really be to warrant an additional 15minute drive. Well friends, the raves about this place are all warranted and I have been taught my lesson - I just didn't know what a fabulous donut was until now! Their yeast donuts have the perfect mixture of fluff and chew, you get just the slighted hit of of fried goodness, the glaze is sweet with out being overwhelming - though you need a napkin handy like all good donuts. In fact, I've always hated long johns - if you're going to give me THAT much donut it should be filled with custard or jelly, but not here. Their frosting has real flavor and their dough is so good I could eat a donut without frosting and be happy. I now like long johns....but only at Pharaohs. Their Boston Cream was right on with real custard not weird frosting in the middle and their jelly donut was somehow still the weird confectionary jelly but better than what the other places use. They also don't overfill, which I appreciate. Their cake donuts - perfection. There are an unbelievable amount of donut shops in this town, some of which I would give you side eye for bringing to my home, but many of which I'd be happy for. After all - it's hard screw up fried dough and sugar glaze. But screwing up and mastering are two different things and Pharoah's has mastered the donut in a way that in my 40 years of life I had no idea you could. This is the best donut I've had in the country. Unknowingly buying a home far away from this bakery was the best thing the universe has ever done for me because I'm already fearing for my health and waistline now that I know I'm living in the same city as the best donut in America. read more

This little hidden gem in St. Louis is everything you'd want from a local mom-and-pop donut shop. The donuts were incredibly fresh and delicious, paired perfectly with a simple cup of black coffee. The shop has a slightly run-down vibe, and the area might feel a little sketchy, but that's part of the charm - it's authentic, unpretentious, and clearly loved by locals. The service was friendly and the staff are funny. For what you'd expect from a local mom and pop shop, they're doing awesome, and I love supporting small businesses like this! Definitely worth a visit. read more

Don't expect frills, but do expect yummy donuts and friendly service at this dive doughnut shop. Parking is off street by meter. It's a very small store front you can easily drive by, I did. The area was clean. There is no dining in or tables or outside. It's carry out only. The selection was still pretty good at around 930 on a Sunday. There is a single smallish case. My kids got a few varieties. I got a blueberry cake type. The prices were a steal. We took our doughnuts over to another business across the street to enjoy. The doughnut were fresh and overall pretty good. I've had better, but still tasty. I would have no issue returning. read more

The donuts are fantastic. Now I ain't going to lie. For a baker's dozen of donuts you're looking at $35-36 dollars IF you ask for a variety without specifying specific donuts. But I imagine it's at least slightly cheaper for, say, a box of 12 glazed. I'm speculating. I personally think $3 per donut is nuts, but the product is great and I love dictating where my money goes, vis-a-vis a family-owned black business. The parking is Maryland Plaza/Euclid parking, so it's only convenient between the hours of 6:00am and 8:30am. But the service is very friendly. Two thumbs up. read more

Love the location, love that it's black-owned, love the donuts, do not love the service. This has become our go-to donut spot because of the location, variety of donuts, and I always love supporting my people. The service has been wacky ~60% of the time I'm there. I almost always walk out with a dozen (or three) donuts, and it always feels like a bit more of an ordeal than it has to be. But still, the donuts are so dang good I keep going back anyway. The cinnamon crunch donut is a family favorite, the cheesecake stuffed donut is super yummy, and overall every donut has been great. read more

Okay donuts. Okay service. Overall, disappointing. I will add maybe the other locations are better but there were no menus to know what was available today , there were more donuts in the back she didn't even mention were an option until I asked, the lighting was so poor I had to turn on my phone flashlight lol. I just feel they could have spent more time on the inside of the store. As a first time customer I knew nothing but when I arrived I was given no assistance on what was offered, had no ideas of pricing as their were no signs and even when I asked if it was cheaper to get 6 donuts the answer was it just depends on which I pick. I was suggested visiting this donut shop as I love donuts and always try to hint a few donut spots in a new city but this one was not for me. Its been a very long time since I have given a two star review but everything was just subpar and disappointing... read more

Soooo I'm a bit of a donut snob, I was in town for work and these were good but not the best I've ever had. A real small biz vibe though and really quality donuts. It's a little slow moving so if you're in a rush and it looks busy I'd say move on. But, you can place orders ahead and pick up. The guy that did that also had to wait in line though and it wasn't made yet so I don't know. read more

I was so happy to read they were opening a location in the CWE right on Maryland. I came this morning around 8:30 and they had a steady flow of customers. I got the cinnamon roll, Apple fritter, pink sprinkle, and a cinnamon cheesecake. I loooooove their apple fritters they are amazing and a very generous size.

I've been a loyal customer for a long time and have easily spent thousands of dollars on Hank's cheesecakes for both personal celebrations and professional events. The product itself has always been worth every penny. That said, I was disappointed to learn of the new policy charging $2 simply to slice a cheesecake. When purchasing a $25-$400+ cheesecake, an additional fee for a task that takes roughly 20 seconds feels unnecessary and, frankly, a bit off-putting. While I understand that rising costs are impacting businesses everywhere, this type of nickel-and-diming can feel discouraging--especially to long-standing, repeat customers who have consistently supported the business. Hank's Cheesecake remains exceptional, and the product is second to none. I hope management reconsiders this policy, as it slightly detracts from what has otherwise been an outstanding customer experience for many loyal patrons.

It really helped us to be able to make our decisions before ordering. We tried about 3 different jellies: lychee/coconut, aiyu is just sugar that has a flavor so we opted to pass once we asked right before trying it-it had a brown look to it. They do have a note that tapioca is not ready until 1030 AM each day. I ordered passionfruit with lychee with 50% less sugar with light ice. It was just right in sweetness. I like the tartness of passion fruit and that amount of sugar allowed for that with a slight sweetness. I loved that the seeds are in the juice. The drink was delicious. Additionally, I ordered a matcha green milk tea for the morning with tapioca. My daughter got the mango slushie with mango boba-so good!! The prices are really great and this spot is adorable on the inside. . The location is 2 doors down from Daiso!!!!!

I'm so confused. They ended up redoing my drink. This isn't the first time we've come here and they don't give you extra boba even if you pay for extra. SKIP!!!!

For a last minute, celebratory dessert stop, Cyrano's hit the spot…read more My partner and I went because we saw a Google review that mentioned the bread pudding being so delicious that it "altered his brain chemistry." Honestly that's what sold us! Arrived and promptly ordered that dessert and the carrot cake. Then the server told us of their "to die for" tiramisu and my partner immediately said yes. WOW let me tell you from a first hand experience two people do NOT need three desserts. Cyrano's gives you AMAZING portions. Just one would have been enough lol. Anyways, the carrot cake was my favorite. It was so big I had enough to take home! The tiramisu was good but it was being overpowered by the carrot cake that evening. As for the brain chemistry altering bread pudding.... That google review was 100% correct. It was delicious. 10/10. No notes. Please order it if you go to Cyrano's. The ambiance was a little dated but still looked nice. The staff was kind and quickly resolved the missing ice cream situation.

My friend loved their raspberry mocha. We both had the lemon rosemary chicken (mine with pasta, hers with mashed potato) and loved it. Dinner tends toward an older crowd some come on the later side (7 and after) to avoid bigger crowds and parking issues.

I had to be different and go for the savory option - "Italian" w/c is Black pepper and green onion beignets topped with Italian cheese & a side of Marina sauce for dipping. The beignet bites reminded me of a fancier version of a pretzel bite only with that soft and lighter texture compared to a pretzel. Glad to also see them offering GF options for those with gluten allergies/ gluten intolerance. The vertical banner with the business name outside along with the Open light up sign were the two things outside that directed me to the entrance door to check out this place. Looking forward to coming back to trying one of their sweet traditional beignets. Friendly & efficient customer service. Only concern I had is the place felt cramped and I know the owners are doing their best to maximize use of the space. Just wondering if there has been any possible ideas to make that indoor space feel more open especially with option to dine in.

When you walk in you pick up a tray and some tongs and get to look through all the different glass cases of baked goods. You pick what you want and then pay at the counter. They have both sweet and savory options. I opted to get their matcha donut and a savory hot dog pastry. They also have specialty cakes, as well as espresso drinks. I love the variety of options they have and feel that their baked goods are overall fairly priced. I can't wait to go back and try something new!

Truffles has been around for a while and has been on my list, but I never made it in until just…read morerecently for a birthday dinner with friends. I loved that the location had a good parking lot and was easy to get to. The decor and ambiance are designed to give you a feeling of luxury. We had a party of 6 and the round table we were placed at was the perfect size for conversation but still had room for all of our food and plated. Waitress was very helpful and attentive. The wine and bourbon list was massive and I recommend that you do your research in advance. It is way too big to really explore at the table. Bourbons were kind of high priced but, "fine dining" so expected. House salad is really good and fresh with nice light, balanced ingredients. We tried the korean cauliflower and bread service for apps. The cauliflower was ok but I wouldn't order again. It was a little disappointing that they charge for bread service. A single order comes with 5 pieces of bread, connected but tearable, and each a pretty small finger-sized piece. The board they served it on had a well full of olive oil and that was a mess. It was hard to pass without spilling and hard to share the oil since you had to pass the whole big bread board with it. Definitely a form over function thing that caused some frustration. Most of my party got steaks and all were very happy. 2 of my party got their steaks tuscan style and although they really liked the flavors on the meat, they wished they had not gotten salads first since the tuscan style plate replaced the usual potato and veg side with an arugula salad (so double salads for those folks). One person got the pork chop and it was massive, seemed like he liked it. I got the tagliatelle ragu and it was a good portion, not obscene but I had leftovers. It kind of tasted like pot roast pasta in a decent way. I don't know if I would get it again but I was not disappointed. 2 in our party ordered dessert, creme brulee and chocolate torte. The chocolate torte was phenomenal and one person said they would have come just for that. Not a lot of non-alcohol after dinner drink options. I ordered drip coffee and it was better than most I have had after dinner at supposedly nice restaurants, although it wasn't amazing. Some at our table ordered port and the bottle was humungous - a very amusing presentation. We were celebrating 4 birthdays among our 6 diners and they brought us a very nice plate of warm, gooey, chocolate chip cookies cut into quarters to share. This was a PERFECT birthday acknowledgement. We didn't need a big dessert per person or one to share with 6 spoons. It was small, delicious, and a gracious gift. If I could do half stars I would give 4.5. There were some small misses that I would not expect from a restaurant of this caliber. It was a lovely dining experience and I would go back in a heartbeat. I really like when a restaurant lives up to its reputation and I think Truffles does.

We started with the Korean fried cauliflower and it was honestly some of the best I've ever had. The batter was light, fluffy, and crispy, and the gochujang sauce with the mayo was sweet and sticky in the best way. Since it's a butchery, we had to try the steaks. I ordered the 4oz filet Oscar style. The meat was tender and very well seasoned, the crab was fresh, and the homemade hollandaise really pulled it all together. My husband had the ribeye. It was a flavorful cut, a little fatty (as ribeye tends to be), but exactly what you'd expect from that cut. The steaks come with a twice-baked potato and vegetable (or you can swap for different vegetables). The potato was flavorful but fairly dense. We also did the bread service - it was good, but felt a bit pricey for the portion. We ended with the flourless chocolate torte, which was very rich and the perfect way to finish the meal - especially on Valentine's Day. Overall, the food was good and the menu is solid. The quality was there, but the portions, bread service and sides didn't fully meet expectations. That said, it was still a lovely experience and a great date-night spot.
