High on service |
16806 Chesterfield Airport Rd St. Louis, MO 63005 United States +1 636 532 7684 http://www.stl-eat.com/AnnieGu... |
"Fun and casual" is the name of the game in this American restaurant. Owners Thom and Jane Sehnert are friendly and well-known in the St. Louis community and culinary scene. Annie's serves great food, but that is somewhat offset by the cramped dining area and the lengthy wait. This restaurant is known for its steaks, but it also serves smoked meats, pork, fish, ribs, burgers and more. Outdoor dining is available. Review © 2007, Wcities |

"Owner Joyce Leimkuehler prides herself on running an establishment with a friendly and casual atmosphere. Visitors return again and again for the food and service.

Satisfying wining & dining |
4141 S Grand Blvd St. Louis, MO 63118 United States +1 314 832 3779 http://www.royaleorleans.com/g... |
The decor leaves a little to be desired, but the food keeps guests returning again and again. The atmosphere and dress are usually casual, but don't be surprised if things get a little "dressy" on the weekends. Diners tend to be more in tune with the local nightlife on those nights. Try traditional Italian dishes such as chicken cacciatore, spaghetti with meatballs and veal parmigiana. All the entrees are served with a fresh salad and buttery garlic bread. Wines are available, but the choices are limited. Review © 2007, Wcities |

50 televisions and eight satellites |
2765 N Hwy 67 St. Louis, MO 63033 United States +1 314 921 0626 |
Kenrod's All-Star Sports Grill sports bar is well known for its programming, as it has eight satellites and 50 televisions, which broadcast sports into every nook and cranny. However, it should be equally renowned for its cooking. The food never fails to satisfy and appeal. In fact, it might just be worth a visit even if you are not a sports fan. The all-time menu favorite is the massive, juicy cheeseburger, which is made to order. Rest assured that all entree portions are more than the average person can eat and are well worth the price; you might want to consider sharing unless you are extremely hungry.

Malone's is the kind of bar where you can watch nearly any sporting event you want on TV: any sporting event on at least one of its seven TVs.

A combination sports bar and family-oriented neighborhood pub, Duffy's is a good place for a casual meal. Burgers are the specialty, thick and juicy, and offered with a variety of toppings. The Chili Rounder is another favorite with regulars, but you will need a big appetite to finish it. Sample the crispy chicken strips for an appetizer or entrée. Various soup and entrée specials change daily. The large bar also serves food from the menu. Duffy's has another location at 6662 Clayton Rd in Richmond Heights (+1 314 644 3700).

Frozen custard, milkshakes and ice cream |
6726 Chippewa St. Louis, MO 63109 United States +1 314 481 2652 http://www.teddrewes.com/Drewe... |
This place has been a favorite in St. Louis and a landmark for ice cream lovers since 1929. Mr. Drewes' cool, creamy delights are served upside down in order to prove just how creamy and thick they really are. Do not be alarmed by the ever-present line, as it moves along pretty quickly. An ice cream-style stand, complete with neon lights and twinkling bulbs, makes this a lively family hangout. It is so relaxed that the menu is handwritten. Try an array of frozen flavors, from pineapple, strawberry and chocolate chip to other odd titles such as the Terramizzou, Fox Treat and the All Shook Up. Visitors will miss a treat by not trying a Concrete. Review © 2007, Wcities |

On Track at West Port Plaza |
314 West Port Plaza St. Louis, MO 63146 United States +1 314 434 7222 http://www.trainwrecksaloon.com/ |
Given the wood-plank floors and the large model train that circles the bar, customers here might really think that they are revisiting the Old West. The antiques scattered throughout the dining room date back to the late 1800s; even the booths are antiques. If the thought of Bison Tongue does not set your mouth to watering, you might just stick with a regular hamburger. Guests regularly order the bison and ostrich specialties, but the menu has something to appeal to everyone. Try the two-inch thick Trainwreck Chop, a Caesar salad, a glass of beer or wine and one of the house desserts - may be a mousse! Review © 2007, Wcities |
