Vin de SetDinner outsideGreat place for outside dining. Ambiance and View of St. Louis is perfect. Service was excellent but food was only marginal. I doubt I would recommend for great food unless you choose a basic like a steak.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMA M A Z I N GThis place is absolutely amazing. Loved every minute of being there. The people were great, the food was awesome, the view was perfect!!!!! Can not wait to go back!5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMBirthday celebrationWe went to celebrate my birthday. Everything was great and even got a hand signed card from the staff and a free creme brulee. This remains my favorite restaurant in St. Louis5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMmother's day brunchStaff was cordial (even with my 8 mo. old son) and flexible with seating requests. The holiday brunch had plenty of options, from the standard scrambled eggs and bacon to smoked salmon eggs benedict and tons of desserts. If it's a nice day, sit outside on the deck. Not a great view, but it's still enjoyable. For what we got in the brunch (which included a mimosa), price was reasonable.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMFresh locally sourcedVery good knowledgeable waiter. The ingredients in our dishes were fresh and flavorful, for example, ribeye steak from Rain Crow Ranch, you could really taste the herbs in the herb gnocchi, whole shrimp in the seafood special. We were there early in the evening so it was pleasantly quiet.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMWe ALWAYS go there for Mother'sWe ALWAYS go there for Mother's Day!!!!! One year I tried to make resrvations at a place we used to go to but I did it too late. I then made them at Vin de Set. They impressed us SOOOOO much that we've been going there ever since! We also go there for other occasions as well! We love it!!!!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMNight outMy wife and I went to Vin De Set as part of our night out away from our kids. It was a great place to have a nice combination of foo and drinks. The food was worth the price, and the service was great.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMhidden away location - delicioushidden away location - delicious food and at night the view of the arch from the heated indoor or outdoor seating is AMAZING.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMWill return.This is a really nice restaurant close to the St. Louis Ameren HQ. Very nice decor, open wood framed roof with skylight..
My wife's egg plant skins were a bit tough.
Seating was a bit cramped on the north wall (looking out toward Hwy. 40).
Didn't sit there but the two corner round booths looked really nice.
Also looked at the loft area for small party of 12 and that was very nice.
I'll be back.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMLovely Dining ExperienceA delightful breeze, a delicious mound of extraordinary fries, an eggplant stack to impress the most skeptical, salad with a light vinaigrette, and conversation with my best friend. It doesn't get any better than this. You will enjoy Vin de Set.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have been coming to VinWe have been coming to Vin De Set ever since it opened.

Elegant, without being stuffy. Great architecture and ambiance. And the food is wonderful. Had the escargot as an app then sea bass, my partner had the prime-rib. Spectacular.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a wonderful dinnerWe had a wonderful dinner and a very polite waiter. We loved being able to make a reservation. The only thing we would change is the music being played in the restaurant. Our preference to accompany such fine food would be music of a more classical nature; it would add to the ambiance of the dining experience.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were highly impressed byWe were highly impressed by the smooth operation of the staff. They worked together to make all comfortable and feeling like we were important to them. The food was delightful, full bodied taste without overwhelming our taste buds. Food was hot when it was supposed to be and cool when it was supposed to be. The staff listened and then went forward with our requests as needed. We also received a table side visit from one of the managers.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMLove this place. Food is outstandinLove this place. Food is outstanding with some of the best servers in town.

My only problem was that my meal was VERY salty. I would say it was a one off but 4 people at our table ordered it and everyone responded the same. The rest of the food and drinks were great.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMLove the rooftop restaurant!Love the rooftop restaurant! It was an amazing place to witness an April thunderstorm and downpour.
The food was great, with the exception of the ribeye steak. The steak was quite thin, and not great quality. However, the seafood was wonderful. The scallops were tender and interesting. The sea bass was tasty and perfectly prepared.
The maple dessert was greatly enjoyed by all of us.
I will definitely go back, but will stick to fish and seafood.4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMI went for the first timeI went for the first time this weekend and loved it!4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMWhat a wonderful way to spendWhat a wonderful way to spend Easter!

Everything was very good.3/31/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat atmosphereI've been to Vin de Set on two different occasions: first to enjoy a date night with my boyfriend, and the second (most recent) visit was to entertain my parents who came to town to visit. My boyfriend and I are big food and wine enthusiasts, while my parents are of the sturdy Midwestern country stock and prefer to keep their meals simple and without fuss. I still decided to take my parents to Vin de Set because I believed they could still find something on the menu and, if nothing else, at least enjoy the ambiance. Vin de Set has a great vibe for both the indoor and outdoor seating areas; I don't think many would disagree with this. Overall, my parents enjoyed Vin de Set and the service was phenomenal.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMHad a wonderful dinner, interestingHad a wonderful dinner, interesting menu that is not the same old same old.Lovely dining rm. and great for eating outdoors weather permitting.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMAs soon as we walked in, theAs soon as we walked in, the hostess noticed from the reservations that it was my husband's birthday. I thought that was a nice gesture. It was a great atmosphere and wonderful food. A little dissappointed they didn't have any chicken dishes on the menu. Wasn't near as nice sitting inside as it is outdoors in the summer, but it was still nice and quite romantic. Will definitely return.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMThoroughly enjoyed this restaurant.Thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant.
