    Our table was ready when we arrived. Our server was very attentive without being overbearing. The wine list was very good. The food was excellent, especially the trout. Loved the homemade ice cream and sauce.

    Excellent service - wonderful suggestions and all over it with his support staff. Food came quickly and was very hot. Meatballs EXCELLENT. Onion soup, Beef Ravioli, and Veal Parm were perfect, and thanks for that side of unbelievable meat sauce! Met the manager at the desk as well - super nice dude who's name of course I forgot - but he stopped to talk a bit I came two nights in a row, sitting at the bar with Abby night one who was equally as wonderful and professional. Both servers really took pride in the restaurant and looked very crisp in their appearances. I could tell CG has excellent standards! ONLY note - maybe put salt and pepper on the table? I might have added a little salt because I like food a little salty, but I still loved everything and everyone. Great job - will be by every trip I make to STL. TD
