This restaurant has been talked about quite a bit lately so I stopped in for lunch. The owner was talking about how they just switched to a different butcher for their beef & she brought out a couple of samples of meat to try. It was decided that it needed to be more tender & was put on hold on the menu board. Oh my God it was so good…so I went with the pork rib tips, with spaghetti & green beans. The portion of meat was hefty & was so tender & good on its own that I didn’t want to ruin the taste by smothering it in sauce. The spaghetti didn’t last long in its bowl; very good. Green beans with onions, ham & potatoes was also a great choice as a side. On all the reviews I saw, it seemed like the staff are as amazing as the food, & that is no lie. I felt like I was at a friend’s house or something. I was included in conversations, given a tour of the other parts of restaurant which includes a back patio & the memorable claustrophobic basement where locals would have jam sessions when it was Iron Barley. Just good vibes & a great place to have a meal & a drink. Highly recommend & will be back!!
Happy Soulful Sunday!! Due to our power being out....we're outside getting something to eat!!

Late night dine in the atmosphere was humble laid back and chill. Owner gave a tour of the establishment,. I appreciate the interpersonal interaction. I really dig this place food was good I would have gave 5 stars if the fish and chicken was cooked a bit harder. Easy fix Other than that no complaints here. I'll definitely be back to patronize the them
Stopped by on a Saturday and they only had a limited entree and sides which was disappointing because we came here based off the full menu. We ordered some fish plates with cheese fries, spaghetti, and baked beans. The fish was sooo delicious and the spaghetti! Their cheese had a nice spice to it, the baked beans could have been better but tasted ok. Would love to come when we can get some mac & cheese, yams, cabbage. The service was great, nice and friendly. The place was clean and looked good with a full bar.
The food was amazing. I order the fish with the potato salad and the green beans and it was absolutely delicious. My daughter had the spaghetti, fries and chicken wings, delicious! Definitely going back before I leave St. Louis!
