Finally had a chance to visit Nettie B's. This small unassuming place I was told had great food…read more The actual restaurant space was anti-climatic. It was a big open space with a couple tables on one side and the chefs counter on the other side. In the corner was a lady greeting people who would take your order. There were no menus, the lady said the restaurant was transitioning to fish and seafood only and the menus were not completed but she could name off what was available. She did and I decided to go for the Salmon po boy with fries. I almost fell over when she said $17 and some change. OMG! Po boy usually taps out at $14.99 at the most, unless it is lobster. So already the bar was raised because a $17 po boy better be damn good. While waiting at one of the tables, the lady brought over my tableware for dine in. A plastic cup with plasticware and packets of condiments. I get it, COVID, but for a $17 sandwich with fries, I was expecting the dine in experience to be a little better. My food is ready and the chefs did a nice job of presenting it well in a styrofoam box for takeout, even tho I planned to dine in. So, moral of this story is that the food all comes in a takeout box. Including their pricey seafood boils. I know seafood is expensive, but if I am going to drop $30 for a takeout order, I'm expecting something better than just a styrofoam container you would put fried chicken in, what do you think? I enjoyed the salmon po boy, it was good, but not $17 good. Fries were hot and fresh, so I am giving this 4 stars because the food was good, the ambiance just wasn't. The price point is too high for me, but if you live in Illinois and want a seafood boil this is the place for you! I guess.

Peacemaker Lobster and Crab was absolutely amazing. We ordered a ridiculous amount of food because…read morethere were so many things on the menu we wanted to try, and somehow, nearly everything we ordered was a hit. We started with Stella on tap, which just felt appropriate while visiting St. Louis, especially after touring the nearby Anheuser-Busch brewery. It was easily one of the freshest Stellas we've ever had. For food, we tried the lobster mac and cheese, lobster bisque with pieces of lobster, a pound of steamed crab legs, fried green tomatoes, and the warm lobster roll. The lobster roll was phenomenal. We shared it, but I honestly could have eaten the entire sandwich myself. The real standout, though, was just how perfectly the seafood was cooked. Both the lobster and crab were juicy, sweet, and tender with just the right amount of chew. Nothing was rubbery or overcooked, but it wasn't soft or mushy either. I genuinely don't think they could have cooked the seafood any better. The fried green tomatoes were also cooked perfectly and something I was excited to try since you don't see them on every menu. Unfortunately, they were a little too spicy for my personal taste, so we didn't finish them, but that's definitely more about my spice tolerance than the quality of the dish. The atmosphere was another plus. It's a really cute setup with great ambiance, and our server was wonderful. We also walked right in without a reservation and had no wait at all, which has honestly been one of our favorite things about eating our way through St. Louis. Coming from California, we're used to having to plan ahead for popular restaurants, sometimes weeks in advance. Here, we've been able to discover some fantastic places without having to plan our entire trip around restaurant reservations. I will say, this was probably the most expensive meal of our trip. The one pound of steamed crab legs was $65 market price, and the lobster roll was $37 market price, so Peacemaker definitely isn't the cheapest place we've eaten. That said, considering the quality of the seafood and how much we enjoyed everything, it was absolutely worth the splurge. From the crab legs to the lobster roll to the bisque and mac and cheese, everything we tried was delicious. Combine that with the atmosphere, great service, and being able to walk right in, and this was easily one of our favorite meals in St. Louis. I'm actually hoping I can convince some of my coworkers from my training class to go back with me before I leave Missouri. I think that probably says everything you need to know about how much I enjoyed it.

Peacemaker has been on my to-try list for YEARS, and we finally got around to trying it out on…read moreFriday night (funnily enough, right after visiting the aquarium)! The outside is very unassuming, as are most restaurants along Sidney St. in my opinion, but upon walking to the table for our reservation the first thing that caught my eye was the wooden plank ceiling which really fit the expected vibe of a seafood restaurant with more of an upscale feel. After being seated, our server brought us some water in these cool colored mason jars which added to the character of the entire restaurant. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed as she checked in quite a few times throughout our dining experience and answered our questions in full. We started off with some cocktails: the Port Royal as well as the seasonal slushie, the Yodermelon. Both of them were quite delicious, with the Yodermelon tasting exactly like a refreshing watermelon slushie; you could barely tell there was any alcohol in it! The Port Royal was very good as well and fit the seaside vibe with the rum & pineapple mixture. For the food, we got the seasonal salad which was a Tomato Salad with tomatoes (obviously) beneath a bed of arugula, peaches, pickled red onion, feta, croutons, dill, & a pistachio pesto. Although I really enjoyed all of the different flavors, I do wish the salad was mixed a little bit more as most of the pesto dressing was at the bottom which made it difficult to coat the rest of the salad as we ate. I ordered the Snow Crab Legs as my entree which came complete with a bucket & bib. The clarified butter & roasted lemon to drizzle really complimented the crab. There's something really satisfying about having to work for your food after you're already paying for it since, at the end of it all, you feel accomplished! Despite my love of crab legs, I can't help but feel like I should've ordered something else, though. They were delicious of course, but a side wasn't included despite the somewhat steep market price which meant I was left with a pile of crab legs and nothing else to snack on (besides my girlfriend's lobster roll & chips, thankfully). I was still left feeling hungry after making my way through the crab, so even a recommendation of ordering a side may have swayed me into having a more satiating meal. In short, it felt like I ordered one of the things on the menu that didn't have much character at a restaurant filled to the brim with it. I guess I was just hoping for a differentiator in the preparation or presentation that made this meal feel more unique, which I didn't really get. In summation, I was very pleased with Peacemaker Lobster & Crab and will definitely be finding my way back in the future, likely for a coveted Lobster Roll, but I will be passing on the crab legs next time.

That said, the experience can be very inconsistent. The bar drinks are almost always made far too sweet, and we've had several issues with the food over the years.

Unfortunately, when we've brought these issues to the staff's attention, they have sometimes been argumentative instead of trying to make it right. When everything is prepared correctly, the food is absolutely worth the visit. However, because the quality is so hit-or-miss, it's difficult to know what kind of experience you'll have each time.

We placed drink orders and then had the tough choice of deciding what we were going to eat. We decided to start with the Alligator Sausage & Shrimp Cheesecake. Sounds weird, but it's delicious! It is in no way a traditional cheesecake. I've added a photo of it, but it was after I had already cut it up. It comes out looking like a piece of pie. I looked at the menu and went to my fave - Shrimp Voodoo Tacos. They were so good! It came with a "side" of Jambalaya. The side was a full dinner portion! In fact, I was so full, I brought the whole serving home and my husband had it for dinner and it filled him up. He got the Fried Oysters. It's a great place for people watching. The last time we were there, a woman walked in with a birdcage and bird. You don't see that every day in a restaurant! The place is just good food, good drinks, and good vibes.

The bourbon drinks rising star- 4 stars. Rustic charming restaurant. Reservations required because this is not a big place. I made reservation and have been wanting to come here. The aroma wanting on our server was fish. Fresh fish should not have a smell. Drinks: ordered the rising sun bourbon drink. It was unique and delicious and highly recommend. I like it was served with no ice. My co-workers drinks were served with ice and they were removing the ice. Appetizer: crab stuffed mushrooms. The texture was good but you can smell the crab. The smell put me off but it was temperature hot and it tasted good with lots of crunchy texture. Service: a bit slow but we were deep in conversation. My co-worker order wine with his meal it arrived half way during the meal. Bread: free bread was provided but it was so dry even with it being drown in butter it was inedible. It did have a nice hint of garlic but it was as so dry, I took one bite and left the rest of the bread. Main: ordered the double pork chop with Brussel sprouts. Wow a ton of brussel sprouts! I love Brussels sprouts so I was cool with that. They had great texture. My pork chop was fantastic and cooked perfectly to well. I like that nothing was too salty. My co-workers ordered wagyu ribeye and filet. Both of my co-workers were meh. The filet was ordered medium rare and it came medium well. My co-worker that ordered the wagyu ribeye ate 1/4 of their steak. They love carrots and only ate 1 piece. I looked over and was shocked their place was almost not touched, I asked what is wrong. They provided me a piece of their wagyu ribeye and it was not Wagyu. It was tough like choice and it had a weird texture and taste. It tasted like it was going bad. The carrots were cold and the polenta was inedible. I gave my co-workers a taste of my pork chop and they said I made the better choice. The plating needs work. The Wagyu ribeye beef was thrown on the side of the plate when it should have been the star on the plate. The filet was served with mushy something. I gave them some brussel sprouts because their dish looked sad. Sadly I was disappointed that my co-worker had meh to bad dinners. I will only come Back for their pork chop or find another steakhouse.
