    We sat in the dining room to the right as you come thru the front door. The young man who was poring beverages and refilling bowls with your delicious food was absolutely wonderful. Our reservations were for 3:45 and he really moved throughout the room which was full to capacity. He not only took exceptional care of us but really saw to the needs of all your guests. He did a great job and was really working hard. If you can please be sure to send our compliments to this young man. We love Lemp Mansion and always try to get our reservations in for all the holidays.

    I always come for the fried chicken, gravy and mashed potatoes. This visit on Mother's Day did not disappoint. Our server, Max, made sure our food dishes never ran short but yet maintained adequate distance so that we did not feel smothered. I can wholeheartedly recommend Lemp Mansion for dining. B. Brill

    Had a great time pre Mother’s Day meal. A wedding was going on and you would not have known if you did not see the beautiful bride and her party waiting at the front door to be escorted to the wedding venue.

    Phenomenally service Mayako, & Matthew, servers at the Lemp Mansion! My birthday celebration experience will be the memorable birthday of all. I felt as an honorable guest, with Mayako gone along with singing "Happy Birthday" to me. Along Matthew, narrative his story about spooky stories. I felt like a princess royalty that day. This 250st birthday of the Lemp Mansion, in St. Louis, highest recommendation, suitable for any occasions.

    This is a cool spot to dine. The house is beautiful and we loved the history. Drinks were great, french onion soup was delicious. Mains were ok, nothing great, but the homemade desserts were fantastic! Fun server that gave us history of the spot, and dont forget to check out the house! We would definitely go back, but don't expect gourmet dinner.

    I made reservations on the website 3 weeks prior only to be sat in what the man who sat us referred to as their "overflow" seating. It was cold, dark, damp, and extremely noisy. The food was ok but when we got our check it was 2xs what they advertised on their website! I called and spoke to someone who basically said it was to pay their staff but that she will have their marketing team adjust their website! Not an "I'm sorry" nothing! Don't waste your time or money!

    I love this place, the food is always excellent and never fails to be delicious, tasty along with hot. The staff is so attentive and warm along with welcoming. We had the Shrimp stuffed with Crab cake and remoulade sauce. Lordy it was so scrumptious and big. Sides of homemade mashed potatoes with seasoned zucchini and squash. The dinner salad with Mayfair dressing and homemade croutons rocks, with the fresh hot rolls to boot. Let's not forget the frozen tasty Pina colda too. Big Shout out to Waiter Matt and Chef Matt as they made the 60th birthday party a hit with all.

    We LOVE coming here for the Sunday fried chicken family style dinner. The chicken is delicious! The sides are awesome! My particular favorite is the real mashed potatoes and cream gravy. 🤗 We always look around to see if we can detect any of the family members that tragically died in the mansion. It is always a lot of fun.

    It was our 3 year anniversary. It was the first time we ever went to the Lemp Mansion. Our server was Great. He did a wonderful job. The appetizer was to die for. We had the Parmesan baked artichoke hearts. Food portions were super I have my lunch for work on Monday. We saw you have fried chicken Sundays. We will be there next week. Thanks again

    We brought our 9 and 11 year old with us and they loved it. The ambience of history woven throughout the restaurant was fascinating to them. Our waiter, Adam, was excellent. Food was delicious. French onion soup is a must! This was the first time in a long time our glasses stayed full and we never had to ask for anything. The staff anticipated our every need. Definitely plan to go back.

    This was our second time at the location CNN calls one of the top ten spookiest buildings in the world. The prime rib special was excellent. My wife enjoyed the fettuccine Alfredo. Service was good, although I will say our waiter was very busy with probably one table too many. Definitely recommend. We plan to gi back for the dinner theater.

    We had dinner with our daughter- we came to visit her and this was recommended. The chicken valle douge was the best of our meals- I had chicken piccata which was dry and my husband had the meatloaf. The vegetables were very good- cauliflower and broccoli (but I love broccoli). You get so much food for the price, and the service was good. For a haunted mansion I would have liked more information from the wait staff. There was a murder mystery going on which looked like do much fun. The bar is beautiful - old antiques everywhere and there was a guided tour going on outside the mansion. I would go back for the murder mystery dinner which would be fun with a group.

    We were very excited to go to Lemp Mansion. Sadly we were very underwhelmed. I ordered the chicken Parmesan. My chicken was very dry and the sauce had very little flavor. I hardly ate any and my server never asked why i had only taken a few bites. Just not what i wanted and would have ordered something else but our server didn't seem concerned so we just decided to pay our bill and leave.

    I’m not sure if we caught the kitchen on a bad night or the positive reviews are for the hotel and dinner theater, but this is not a restaurant I’d recommend to others. For starters, there’s no wine or cocktail menu. Limited drink options. A bit strange for a restaurant with $20-35 plates. The wait time was atrocious. We arrived at 5:45, ordered food at 6 and it came out at 6:55, leaving us little time to eat (had another engagement at 7:30) and no opportunity for desert, which we’d hoped to get. Worse—we ordered soup/salad and Jambalaya, dishes that should take 10-15 minutes at most. The jambalaya was…terrible. It should not be on the menu. To their credit, a hostess came by and realized the dish hadn’t been touched. Asked if we wanted a box and when we said “no, it’s not any good,” she spoke with the server and had it taken off the tab without us asking, but the server seemed…indifferent? Disinterested? We’re frequent diners in St. Louis. We’re an easy quick turn $75 tab with drinks/entrees/dessert and the server seemed annoyed we were there. In all just an absolutely terrible experience. Sadly won’t be back.

    Took a date for the first time there and she fell in love with the place. Then our server came out and killed it and had us laughing. Finally the food came out and not a bad thing came to the table. We will be back for sure
