There's a great variety of dining options, from casual eats to more adventurous menus, and the local vibe really adds to the experience. Each spot feels distinct, and it's easy to make a fun day or evening out of hopping between restaurants. That said, I'm taking off one star for parking and safety. Parking can be limited and a bit tricky to find, and while the area is lively, it's worth staying aware of your surroundings, especially at night. Overall, Cherokee Street is a fun, diverse place for food and culture lovers. Just plan ahead for parking and stay mindful of your surroundings, and you'll have a great experience.

This area…read morewas really run-down and seemed really sketchy; the roads seemed pretty destroyed and surrounding buildings were mostly obliterated or inhabited. So, I wouldn't recommend visiting at night, as you never know what you may encounter. The Grafitti wall was much more longer than I thought it would be! The vibrant colors from various artists that join together to create a complete picture was truly astounding. It's actually so inspiring to see so many different artists working together, incorporating their own unique styles to create one single piece of artwork. If I took a few minutes to really take in and admire each grafitti, finishing the wall would take HOURS! I was skeptical that this mural was worth the trip to an abandoned area, but I'm truly so glad that I came to see this beauty. If you're in Saint Louis, you have to come take a look!

-- The Lovably Wild Aunt of St. Louis…read more If Soulard were a member of your family, she'd be that crazy aunt you can't help but adore -- the one who shows up already tipsy, tells stories that make your parents cringe, and might just leave with something from your mother's jewelry box. But here's the thing: you'd always ask if she's coming, because she's the life of the party. This neighborhood is pure character -- historic brick buildings, streets meant for wandering, and an endless lineup of bars, restaurants, and live music joints that feel like they've been here forever. Stroll the streets with a drink in hand, pop into a corner pub for some blues, or time your visit for one of the many events that take over the area. From Mardi Gras to market days, Soulard never fails to please the senses... even if it occasionally offends your nose. Honestly, Soulard should lean into its reputation even more -- imagine a Crazy Aunt Run in the spirit of the Mrs. Roper Romp or the Red Dress Run. The crowds are already here, so why not throw in a few more wild, themed events to keep the energy rolling year-round? It's gritty, it's charming, it's unpredictable -- and that's exactly why you'll want to keep coming back.

Are you shaw you want to hear about this neighbourhood?…read more OK then here goes. This is a really lovely neighbourhood in St Louis which has been seeing something of an urban resurgence and Renaissance around here, but it is still possibly the highest crime city in America and one of the highest crime cities in the world by many yardsticks, whatever a yardstick is. So this neighbourhood isn't safe by the standards of other cities, but it's not too bad by St Louis standards. And it's lovely, and I hang out here whenever I'm in town. We like the ice cream here, there's a Ted Drewe's not too far away too.

It's a new monthly CYE, that is going to expose us all to the fabulous and delicious diners within our great city of STL. Best of all, you get to do experience them with fellow Yelpers aka foodies just like yourself. David one one of the co-owners was the perfect host. You could hear his passion as he explained each item on his breakfast menu to our group of Yelpers/foodies. He shared which were his personal favorites and which contained house-made items/ingredients. Seriously, whatever you selecte, would be the right choice. Nobody was disappointed with their choice and everyone cleaned their plates. Max, this was a fun CYE. I am looking forward to the next diner, and personally, I am hoping to make it to each and everyone on the diner tour.
