    Soul Food Sunday did not disappoint. I was in the mood for ox tails and Google sent me directly to YOUR PLACE DINER. I'm so glad to have stumbled upon such a neighborhood gem. The space is clean, has a full bar, dining area, with a separate entertainment area on the lower level. There was a live band section, dart board, jukebox & bar. Outdoor patio was also a nice touch. Niecey was a peach! Super welcoming; pleasant & gave me a tour of the establishment when I told her it was my first time in. The food was superb at an excellent price point. Ox tails were fall-off-the-bone delicious! Cabbage, Mac & cheese all made me wanna slap my mama. I'll be back very soon. ~Christy

    Definitely soul food experience. Menu is different based on days of the week. Friendly server. Street parking.

    Catfish nuggets, potato salad and string beans

    WOWWWW... Yes... that's the best way I can describe my experience. I used multiple search engines to determine where to eat when I came to STL and this spot came up multiple times with great reviews and I am so glad that we were able to dine here while in town. The restaurant was about a 15 minute drive from our hotel which was in downtown STL, we took an Uber so we did not have to worry about parking. When we arrived the line was to the door but it moved quickly. While we did dine-in, we ordered our food first and then were directed to seat ourselves. The menu changes (I assume daily) and on the day of our visit, hubby and I ordered catfish, potato salad and green beans (I had traditional style but hubby ordered fried spicy green beans). We sat and waited for our food to be prepared, which may have taken about 15 mins (give or take a few) but either way, the wait didn't feel like it took long because we were able to enjoy the sounds of R&B from multiple eras and also had the pleasure to engage in light conversation with the owner, Ms. Yvette, the security guard and bartender - they were all personable and a little humorous. But when the food came out, all conversation stopped because hubby and I did not come up for air until we finished eating our dinner, which was WHOA-licious!!!! To translate, that's dangerously good! lol. The flavor of the catfish was superb! I ALWAYS put hot sauce on my catfish but decided not to and I'm so glad I didn't. The flavor, seasoning and texture were on point; it was perfectly golden brown and crispy. The traditional string beans, which were cooked in turkey were delicious, and supple; while the potato salad was fresh, tasty and had great texture. The fried, spicy greens beans had excellent flavor and were firm - neither hubby nor I had ever heard of or tasted this style of string beans and were thoroughly impressed! The portion sizes of our meals were great also! We mostly cleaned our plates so didn't have room for dessert but whenever we come back to STL, we WILL return (and save room for dessert next time)! If you are looking for a good vibe, warm atmosphere and want to WOW your palate, this spot is a MUST!!!

    10/10 The customer service, other customer's energy, the wait time, THE MEAL !! Amazing wait time-planning a trip to drink and eat soon!!

    Amazing service, food, atmosphere!! The wait time was short the customers there was extremely helpful for a first time visitor! I plan to visit again soon for drinks plus some

    After getting a great recommendation for this spot I decided to try it out for myself. The staff was great with helping with the menu and offering options. It's a really nice setup for sit down and or take out. The food is where this spot truly shines. The oxtail was tasty and juicy. The wings, mac and cheese and fish were all tasty. The portions are big which I am a fan of and don't forget to get a dessert. They aren't always thesame but always satisfied the sweet tooth! Now I know why this spot was talked off highly and I will definitely be back!!

    Got wind that there was a soul food restaurant that just open yesterday, so I had to try it. We drove across town and I'm glad we did. Thankfully the dining room was empty - since we are still in a pandemic - I was comfortable dining in. I prefer to eat my food fresh from the kitchen as opposed to reheating once I get home. First thing I noticed was the full bar . Although I did not indulge this time, I'll try one of their specialty drinks next time. We were greeted by the friendly staff upon entering, seated promptly and provided the menu. The first thing they did was to offer to change the channel from sports to a kid- friendly option my 5 year old granddaughter. That got them three stars right then and there! We placed our orders right away, and the server even accommodated us with an off-menu option for my granddaughter. Within minutes our food was served and overall everything was delicious. I had baked ribs, macaroni and cheese and greens. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, although I prefer my own greens (I'd still order them again). My daughter had the fried catfish. OMG. The batter was seasoned perfectly and fried to crispy perfection. Although this place is about a 30 minute drive from my home, I will def be back. The service alone is worth the trip!

    Fish and chicken dinner.

    While traveling with my 86 year old auntie from NY to AZ we stumbled upon this place. We searched Yelp for dinner and the food pics caught our eyes. Auntie was excited. Upon arrival, we were quite surprised. You can tell right away the owners took great pride in every detail. The music enhanced the ambiance. The staff helped auntie to her seat. We ordered the fish and grilled chicken. Truly to die for!! So thankful we found this place and the amazing staff.

    If you're looking for a great soul food experience, this is the place. Today we got oxtails with dressing and cabbage, catfish with yams and Mac n cheese. When I say EVERYTHING was AMAZING...it truly was. You can take out or dine in, but the dining area is small. However, The entire experience was amazing from the time we walked in the door until the time we left. The servers, the food, and they offer a military discount, even though the food is reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend.

    Generous portions of food are served warm and delicious! There is live music downstairs! The service is different than what is familiar to me. Instead of a waiter coming to your table, you go to the bar and place your order! Tonight I ordered the nachos! Tonight was the Rapper showcase and Art Show!

    These dudes are so sweet q

    *Cash only! Buuuut worth it*…read more I was in Saint Louis for one (1) night recently in early autumn, and my pal, STL Yelp Community Manager Max R, suggested our group meet here for a queer dance party on a Saturday night. UMMMM, YES PLEASE. My boyfriend and I showed up around 10:30 and were ecstatic to find how low-key and unique the place was, and knowing how inclusive it is makes it all the more badass. He grabbed us each a can of Hamm's, because when in Rome, and we headed out to the back area to meet our friends. This was where I became truly invested. Livery Company has a fabulous outdoor space, and when I say "fabulous," I mean it feels like you're hanging out in someone's backyard, except you are at a bar. It was about 55-60 degrees on this particular Saturday, so pretty chilly, but we still very much enjoyed ourselves around the big bonfire that was burning, because we were surrounded by both people we knew, and people who were welcoming even though we were new. The entire vibe of Livery Company is divey-inclusive-comforting, and I think that's the highest compliment I can give. I'm SO glad we were invited to this particular space during a very quick trip to STL. Thank you for existing, Livery Company.

    Quintessential Dive Bar!…read more When you look up South City Dive Bar on Google, Livery Company on South Broadway should be the first one on the list. Everything about it makes it the quintessential South City dive bar. Emily Ebeling has been a city business owner for quite some time. She first opened Livery Company on Cherokee Street, and her clientele grew quickly. Years after she closed that location, the South Broadway has just as much appeal as its predecessor. Cheap bar and unique music. What else can you ask for? LC hosts artists from different genres, but mostly singer-songwriters. They have a monthly songwriters showcase where local musicians share brand new works. I have met some very cool people and now have more talented friends than ever, all because of Livery's commitment to local artists. And the beer is cheap. Yes, they had me at cheap beer. You can get domestic cans for two dollars each, and many of the craft beers are four dollars. I can drink all night on less than a twenty dollar bill. That has dive bar written all over it. And cash only. I am a huge fan. Establishments that welcome diversity and celebrate local talent are well-appreciate. Cheers to Livery Company!

    Stopped into the Saturn Lounge and instantly loved the vibe. This place has such a chill, laid-back…read morefeel that makes it easy to settle in and stay awhile. 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.

    It's a very cool lounge. 2 rooms. Records on the wall. Very brown and dark with records on the wall…read moreand music playing. Order at the bar. This is not my favorite. 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. I felt so cozy here... It made for one of my preferred eating out in the city in winter experiences.
