Restaurants near Drury Inn Festus

This is one of my wife and my favorite places to dine. We had all four of our adult kids with us, in for Thanksgiving and it did not disappoint. The appetizer and our main course were delicious and came out perfect. The wine was very good and went well with our meal. The best part of our evening was our waitress, Tori. She was fun and helped our kids with their orders since some of them, this was their first time there. She checked in on us multiple times with great enthusiasm. I can tell she loves showing her hospitality and loves what she does. She gets Five Plus Stars!!! The whole family live our evening and can’t wait to go back over the Christmas holiday when they get back into town.

My heart is gonna break when I have to leave St Louis. They’ve absolutely ruined all other Italian restaurants for me. I figure they must be Catholics! I feel like it’s heaven, but I also need to go to confession. The guilt is real! 😂😂😂 P.s. They ship the sauce!!!

We had another wonderful dinner at Twisted Tree (no surprise here - that’s why we keep coming back!). The Twisted Shrimp and the Pear Tree Onion Rings were a great star and the salad is always delicious. Our entres were so good, (Salmon, Halibut, Beef Medallions, but the KC Strip Dry Aged was phenomenal. DO NOT miss a piece of the Wedding Cake for dessert, just one piece was more than enough for the 4 of us. So much fun, a memorable evening.

We started with beet carpaccio which was amazing. Then shared the pear and gorgonzola salad. The birthday boy got a steak and I got the Delicata Squash side. At that point I was so full that I could barely finish half, even though it was delicious. Everything about the evening was wonderful and our server, Jordan, was engaging. There when we needed her but not hovering. It's a lively atmosphere, so not the place if you want to have a quiet convo but the food and service are top notch.

We go to the Festus MO White Castles on a regular basis. The food and service is always excellent! We also do the Valentine's Day dinner every year as it is my husband's favorite place to eat and it is also his birthday as well. Wouldn't go any place else.
