Best Fun Restaurants in Des Peres

J Gilbert’s never has disappointed. The food was delicious and prepared as ordered. The wine was a treat — especially as it was half-price Sunday. Our waiter, Jake, was fantastic. Total experience was A+

Kaitlyn was an amazing! She made our experience so smooth and was so knowledgeable for our friends who had never been before!

One of my three favorite restaurants in STL and the perfect place for a fantastic birthday dinner with my wife. A couple of things to note: when I asked for a recommendation on a white wine to go with my dinner, our waiter brought out two different samples for me to try instead of just the one I asked to taste. I went with the second option that I hadn’t even expected to try. The other was the noise/music level when we first arrived was noticeably higher than it normally is. Within 15 minutes of arrival, however, it had been turned down. Food was terrific. North Atlantic Salmon was perfectly prepared. And the Pumpkin Dessert was delicious.

I Adore all the 801 Chop locales, my first time at 801 local (across the street from Lifetime-Idyllic) The bustling warm ambiance was immediately cozy & Familiar. We were greeted & seated within 5 minutes, our Waiter Kevin was prompt, attentive, friendly & recommended the Best Wine (Paul Hobbs Pinot Noir) the Seafoood Crab starter—Divine, rich & indulgent—Filet Mignon, perfect & cooked exactly to order! Thank you Tabor for checking on us & assuring we had a Phenomenal meal. Definitely order the table rolls, they are Divine with truffle butter I could take a bath in 😸🫶

This was my third week in a row having lunch at Cooper’s Hawk in Town and Country. They have the most outstanding and diverse menu with something for everyone. And their desserts are out of this world! (The banoffee pie is my favorite.) Their servers are all amazing - I was recently taken care of by Kay, Trish, Sara and Libby. I will definitely be returning soon!
