Best Restaurants for Groups in Forest Park

I like the open kitchen where you can watch your food being made. All the pasta dishes we ordered were delicious. They make their pastas and bread in house. I wasn’t a fan for the olive oil that came with focaccia, but the bread was soft and yummy. Oysters were fresh. The plating was very nice. I definitely will go back and also recommend this place to all my friends. 

It was Thanksgiving and it was very busy. As usual the Japaneses hibachi bbq experience was lively and the chef was funny and entertaining. The dinner was really good and there was plenty to choose from for both meat eaters with steak, shrimp, chicken choices and vegetarians with a tofu choice and plenty of vegetables and rice. The company around the communal table was friendly and everyone seemed to be enjoying their meal and ate everything and also had dessert. We upgraded our dessrt from the included ice cream to a delicious banana tempura. It was unusual and so good! A great alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner that we really enjoyed.

When we arrived there were no tables available despite the fact we’d made a reservation. We were offered seating outdoors (it was 50 degrees outside!) or next door at the bar. We chose to go next door to the bar where the tables were too small to even fit our drinks and the food we ordered. Over all nice staff and drinks/apps but the curry was less than impressive.

While searching for a different dining experience in my city. I saw the BEASTRO and was intrigued by the fusion of Island and Korean food, then I made a lunch reservation. The menu items that we chose were generous, more than we could eat in one sitting. I recommend the restaurant for the fusion experience. I will return for the dinner menu options which sounded tasty.

We sat at the bar and were entertained by the lady behind the bar expertly concocting delicious drinks Our drinks were really good even the nonalcoholic one. The food was very tasty and quite creative. We had excellent service. It was not cheap but I would definitely go again
