Best Casual Restaurants in Downtown St. Louis

Absolutely phenomenal meal! We came back after 5 years and food and staff were still amazing!

Food was good and service was ok/good. It was a slow night and should have been able to do better but they were very distracted

Invited a group out during a conference. We intentionally had plenty of time. The bartender/server was solo on a quiet Tuesday dinner service; she was quick with drinks attentive. The chef was accommodating of an allergy in our group.

This weekend evening at dinner time when the local baseball game was on-going should have provided personalized and individualized care. However, with one bartender and one server (I so no food runner or assistants or managers either) the service was slow. When it happened, the server was marginal but the bartender, Toni, was absolutely fabulous! She not only made you feel welcome and appreciated, she made the BEST Paper Plane in the Universe! The mix of doos that we selected was well presented and tasty. The menu however is very small and Pennydrop is more of an upscale bar with a small bar menu as opposed to a full service restaurant with an amazing bar. When the baseball game finished and a crowd from the game flowed in, the service slowed even further and lines at the bar were much longer. With a few more staff members, the experience would have been maximized. Regardless of this, I will be back for my next Paper Plane before I head out of town.

The service for ordering and delivering was extremely slow, but the waitress and waiter were professional. Your food was very good, though a bit pricey. My overall rating in very Good.
