    The service was outstanding. Appreciated meeting and talking to the owner, and getting some of his recommendations off of the menu. Will say, I was a bit surprised when the bill arrived. I ordered the meatloaf, and did not realize the price until the bill arrived. As most meat loaf lovers will attest, if it is on a menu, it's got to be pretty good, so you order it. The owner if let me know that it was a special recipe from a former restaurant that me had in California. I will say it was very good. However I found out after the fact that it was $27. It did not have a price on the menu, and was surrounded on the menu by some other entrees in the $17 - $19 range, so my mistake for assuming it would have been in that price range, and not asking the price prior to ordering. I would never have ordered a meatloaf entrée for that price. Would have totally opted for one of the steak entrees instead, that were recommended by the owner. This is a recommendation for the restaurant to please update the menu to reflect all prices, that would not be features such as fish specials where the prices may fluctuate. Some customers feel uncomfortable asking about prices. I guess a recommendation for future customers, would be to ask if you want to know, as this is a great restaurant with an amazingly clean menu and food preparation, and will prevent a bad taste in your mouth after the fact if you don't want to pay $27 for meatloaf.

    All said the food was great and the wine as well even the service ! We dined for dinner and w appetizer and wine and tip we spent about $140 for 2 ! Which even though in my opinion best food in town it will not last in St.Joseph w/out cheaper menu options . Also never heard about it before that day it ! So maybe a little more publicity to boost popularity! All in all like a KC dining experience in St.Joseph and that's the first in my opiinion!

    It is expensive and you don't get extra food. However i enjoy a bit of high quality food on occasion. They lamb, butternut squash ravioli was interesting. Seasonal options such as a carrot curry soup are icing on the cake. The service was first rate.

    We had a great time with superb food for our dinners. The decor is interesting and eclectic in a location that is working to improve. The outdoor eating area was very nice.

    I have lived in the St. Joseph area for 36 years and never had this quality of food, prepared perfectly and with fantastic service. Too costly for frequent dining (for me) but in all aspects I got more than expected. Can't wait to go back there soon! No need to drive to Kansas City for quality any more, now that I've tried Bad Art Bistro
