We came in with a party of 6 people they told us it would be 1 hour no big deal as we where waiting the lady working the door starts talking to the other worker and said that's a party of six so I told them a hour because I don't want to deal with that big of a group right now even though we have the room. That's when we left. They missed out on are money. You work for the customer it pays not to talk about them before you even let them in to eat. I'm in construction in stlouis and I will never recommend this place to anyone

We always find a place to eat that's been on diners drive ins and dives and this place was amazing and could smell that smoke a mile away be careful not to fill up on the awesome loaded fries

Came here to try the wings and wasnt disappointed. Smoky, crispy, and not those terrible jumbo wings that a lot places use. These were the perfect size and of tremendous quality. Nothing necessarily special or unique about them but they really hit the spot due to their overall preparation. 8.4/10 Clucks.
The ranch tasted and smelled like some basic, store bought, mass produced stuff which is surprising considering the level of effort put into everything else on the menu. Luckily I didnt even need to use the ranch because the house made BBQ sauces are all SPECTACULAR. Every single one is vastly different from the next. A myriad of different flavor profiles to suit any palate. My favorites were the 7 chili and the ghost pepper.
My girlfriend got the duck confit and the meatloaf. She loved them both.
The fries were bland and limp, lacking a desirable level of crispiness.
The peach cobbler tasted store bought and made with Pillsbury biscuit dough. A tad disappointing. Something in the dish, possibly the cast iron pan, made one of my bites taste abhorrent. Im not sure what it was but it ruined my whole dessert experience. Ill chalk that up as a fluke and wont hold it against them.
The cornbread was a bit sad because it had whole pieces of corn in it. I know some people like that but it just isnt for me. I prefer a sweeter, homogenous, cornbread like they serve at Grace Meat + Three. That being said it was expertly crafted and if you like a more savory cornbread filled with whole pieces of corn then youll love this.
The bacon was probably my favorite thing I ate all night. Thick, candied, and covered in walnuts. I wish the portion was larger considering the price but it was phenomenal nonetheless.
Would recommend.
