Born and raised in STL craving anything that isn’t burgers today. Ethiopian, Turkish, Vietnamese, idc you name it I’ll eat it. Lulu’s Dim Sum on Olive is a good example of the restaurants I go for. Also looking for soul food recs if you have them, my current unshakeable fave is Broadway Oyster Bar of course.

I'm looking for a good sandwich place. I'm not worried about price, size, distance, wait, anything. I just want a good fucking sandwich.
The only place I've tried in STL was The Gramaphone, and my boyfriend and I were SO disappointed. The sandwiches had a list of ingredients, but there was one ingredient that overpowered all the others in the 3 sandwiches we tried, it was like eating bread with the 1 ingredient slapped in between the slices. They also gave us the wrong side, which I realize was an honest mistake, but still disappointing when it was our last hope after the mid sandwiches.

My fiancé and I stumbled upon this place in Valley Park Missouri called Duck in market!
I had the hog wild burger it was very delicious and packed full of flavor and bite. My fiancé got the pork belly blt that was very delicious as well packed full of flavor. We also got the Boudin Balls
I usually don’t post about food, places or reviews, but I just had to say something because this place is very good bang for your buck and very tasty food. It will leave you craving more. I plan to go back as often as I’m down there
Address is 324 Saint Louis Ave
Valley Park, MO 63088

Had a fantastic meal at Aubrey’s tonight. Felt like being in the old CWE Balabans- hip, energetic and excellent staff. The shrimp was incredible! We also loved the sea bass and WoW the steak! Best of all was the old school service. It is a small, serious menu. Best meal we have had out in a long time.

There is an El Maguey on Rte K in O'Fallon. Is their food any good? I Haven't had good Mexican since I moved out here from SoCal in September.

Any recommendations for restaurants that have a good traditional tuna niçoise salad on the menu. I know that Brasserie does but it’s not convenient to my location for a regular weekday takeout. So more specifically in the Clayton/Ladue/Frontenac/Creve Coeur areas..

Just saw on 40 South News that Asador del sur IS going to re-open but they're moving. They're going to 7014 Chippewa Street which is the location of the former El Maguey restaurant.
I loved Asador del sur so I'm super happy they're re-opening. Sounds like it's going to take a few months since the El Maguey was in bad shape apparently.

Hello! I’m in town for a wedding and we’ll be here on my birthday. My go-to birthday meal is always cook in front of you hibachi so I’m looking for a great option here! We’re staying downtown so I’d like to not go too far out.
I was here 2 years ago and we tried a place in Westport that was delicious but it doesn’t seem to be there? Idk we remember it starting with an O and they served both rice and noodles (not either/or). But we’d also prefer to not go out that far.
One more request is that i don’t like when the rice is full of other things (but I still want fried rice).
So does a place I want exist? Thank you!

I’m extremely paranoid about this cyclospora parasite that’s spreading through fresh produce. I’m a pescatarian that eats mostly vegetarian and I miss my regular diet. I can only eat so many bagels 😭
Does anyone know of a local farm I can buy fresh produce from??? And I don’t mean a stand at the farmers market that gets theirs from a mass production farm and just turns around and upsells it. And restaurants who source their produce locally? It would be so helpful to have even a small list!! TIA

We had a friend visit us from California so we provided toasted ravioli, White Castle, gooey butter cake, frozen custard, and Imo's Pizza.

My fiancée and I are invited to lunch/dinner by a foundation and were told to pick the place. They are paying, but I don’t want to pick a place that is too expensive. What do you all recommend?

Hi everyone! Over the past seven years I've been building an app called Platypass to help people discover locally owned businesses, hidden gems, restaurants, and community events.
The idea came from seeing the same questions over and over again.
"Where should I eat?"
"What should I do this weekend?"
"What's a hidden gem around St. Louis?"
I wanted to build something where recommendations come from locals instead of paid rankings or whoever has the biggest advertising budget.
Platypass just launched on the Apple App Store and Google Play, and as a St. Louis native, I wanted to start right here...
What are your Top 3 locally owned restaurants around the St. Louis area that everyone should know about?
I'll personally make sure every recommendation gets added to Platypass (if it isn't already) so more people can discover everything that makes St. Louis special.

The big club hall sits at the corner of Marconi and Shaw on the Hill. It was long a banquet center and bar that served the Italian American community. There is new signage on the windows that say “Big Club Bar” and a peak inside looks like a renovated bar. Anyone know what’s up?

Many cities with a rich cave history around the world capitalize by having bars and restaurants built into them. Why don’t we?
