    From Chicago, first time at 54th Street with my daughter. Here are my thots: -I knew I was going to like this place when I walked in and saw their Blues Brothers statues. -Feels like a community hang out with well above average food options. 54th has a large menu--with just about anything you can imagine. -I opted for a burger. Ordered the double smash burger and it was a beauty (wish I had taken a pic : ) -The meat was really good, tender & juicy, great taste, well cooked. -Toppings were equally good--raw onions, American cheese, and some sort of delicious aeoli sauce. -Fries were really good. -Service was also really good. Highly recommended!!

    Pot stickers again for the win. Crispy on the bottom and delicious in the middle. Great service and bar.

    FRIED CHICKEN FINGERS PLATTER

    54th Street used to be a higher end Chili's. Now, I lowkey think Chili's has better food than 54th. We hadn't been here since they remodeled/re-named, and they've definitely gone downhill. The atmosphere was still charming, sure, and the service wasn't terrible. We weren't very happy with our waitress, she was friendly at first but she gave us the check only 5 minutes after she brought our food! We felt quite rushed. The food was bleh. My Chicken Finger Platter was way too salty, the fries were limp as well. The Baked Beans were the only decent side, they were surprisingly spicy. My Aunt enjoyed her Chicken Avocado Grille, though. The atmosphere is still busting, but the service and food at 54th have gone downhill.

    Great customer service from Courtney. The restaurant was clean, but chilly. I ordered a strawberry lemonade (tasty), country fried top sirloin steak with mashed potatoes and a biscuit, delicious and comforting. I also ordered brussel sprouts - not good! Unfortunately the ingredients weren't listed. Since when did brussel sprouts come covered in balsamic glaze with dried cranberries and feta cheese? Yucky! Please take this item off of the menu. Thankfully, I was able to get an order of broccolini that looked so good, I forgot to take a pic. They were delicious.

    Their version of med rare steak after it's been sitting in the back for a while

    It's my own fault, I ordered a med rare steak at a non steak house, an hour after I ordered for take out I asked about my food and it had been sitting back there, I know that because my food was room temp. I got home and I got a few veggies, and over cooked steak. $30! I think the menu said I was supposed to get a salad, that was not included if it was supposed to be there. Why do they ask how you want your steak if they aren't going to bother to try and get it the way you want it? They get three stars because the shrimp is as the only thing that was good

    Pretty exceptional place. I can't say I have many complaints. Our table was greeted instantly, and our waitress was so down to earth. Or, down to serve. Whatever. Service was nice, but please do expect the long wait time. They do not have enough staff, so it is not their fault. Spacious room, lots of tables for everyone and a good amount of space for waiting. Cutlery still had food stains which wasn't good and table wasn't the cleanest. Like I said, they do not have enough staff. Good variety of items on the menu, and definietly tasty. I did also order the buffalo chicken salad and the rattlesnake pasta, but there's no photo. You know why? I ate it all. Boy was it delicous! Perfectly seasoned and sooo creamy. Same thing goes for dessert! Minus the seasoning part. Whenever you go here, PLEASE try the brownie. It's so fudgy, and sweet and absolutley yummy. I would probably go here again.

It looked delicious and I had to know what she ordered. We walked back and stood in line to order. There were only 3 workers working, and the guy taking the orders had gloves on while handling money. I had to ask him to change his gloves before going back to handle food. He was polite, and changed his gloves. I ordered the last encounter fries. It gave deconstructed burger vibes. It had waffle fries, hamburger, lettuce, tomato's, jalapeños, guacamole and sour cream. The fries were cooked perfectly, the hamburger had the crunchy edges even though it was crumble pieces. The cheese sauce was creamy but a little thick for my liking. For $10.00 they loaded the to-go box down.

Service was great at both the counter and the table. I had the Split & Melt which was delicious. Crispy smash patties, gooey cheese, buttery bread.

Price: All together, with a dollar tip, I paid $27 and change, which to me is incredibly pricey for counter service. $2 for a dipping sauce is steep, and for a small container. Next time? I'd skip the dipping sauce and homemade lemonade to save $7. I'll be back but not running to pay this much again. The storefront: the direct out front, small parking lot was packed and people were going into the gated lot to find parking. Only one person working the counter when you first walk in which lead to a long line at the dinner rush that seemed to be moving pretty slow. We got in before the rush and got our food quickly after. Staff were kind and very helpful! Fairly clean with the food runners circling tables often to remove trash.

I'm disappointed that it took me so long to make my way here. They won me over with the tiny dedicated parking lot. At my big age, difficult parking situations are a turn off and I will go home if I can't get reasonable parking. I was able to snag a space in the lot and headed in. The space is a bit dark with rich sage, brass, and terracotta. There are several hanging plants making it an inviting place. The bar has plenty of comfortable seating and cozy tables if you decide to bring some friends. Caleb was our server during our visit. He was an absolute delight. He made excellent cocktail suggestions. He looked after our group without being overly doting. Just a gem of a human. We tried approximately 9 cocktails during our visit. Did I mention we were at brunch! I highly recommend the peach bite and the Side Car. Every cocktail is thoughtfully made and well executed. They offer a small brunch menu along with the regular menu. I usually always get chilaquiles when they are available. But today the ruby trout and grits sounded perfect. This dish was amazing!! The trout was thin with crispy skin. The grits were creamy and delicious. The dish is topped with a house made radish pico and salsa macha. We also ordered a breakfast sandwich that was paired with the crispiest breakfast potatoes I've ever had. The burger and fries are also a good option. The seasoning on the fries is next level. The brunch menu has a sticky toffee roll that is a perfect size for sharing or not. Salty sweet fork tender cinnamon roll. Lastly, the deviled eggs were a group favorite. I am a big fan of Passenger Chili Crisp. If you are unfamiliar please look them up! It's hands down the best chili crisp I've ever had. It's locally made here in STL and can also be found in several dishes at restaurants around town. The eggs were creamy with the right amount of tang from the mustard. The chili crisp made these deviled eggs easily top five best I've ever had! Planning to stop in again soon for happy hour with more friends

Comfortable seating out here and the light breeze with the afternoon light was nice as I cranked out a few Yelp reviews before I spotted other customers going inside. After setting up at the huge table in the corner, I stepped up to the bar where I was warmly greeted. I chose their Fish Fry, which they call a light lager. It was in a huge mug and that worked out just fine for me as it lasted a while. Oh, and some chicken wings. These were tasty buggers. Served quite hot with a rub that was more spice than sauce. Very yummy and the two sauces were perfect accompaniment. Absolutely delicious. Not long after, friends arrived and I shifted from solo laptop time to conversation. It's nice to see how Rockwell handles the flow of customers. Casual, attentive, friendly. Just right for a great brewpub and a great time. They do have a parking lot.

Rockwell Beer Company earns the association honestly. I walk in wary (I don't drink beer, don't like it, and an industrial brewery hugging a busy four-lane street is not my native habitat), I get the sense I need to eat in the corner so people don't discover the non-beer drinker; however, I walked out humming. The reason is the food, sourced through Street Food by Brasas. This is not brewery food that apologizes for itself. Pretzels, wings, both worth ordering again. The pizzas (barbecue, pepperoni) land in that rare category of elevated bar snack. I'd happily return for a table's worth. It's order at the window food service, which is fine for their vibe, but it keeps the environment to a self-service lower warmth environment. We sat outside, which is nice IF you can find some shade on a hot summer evening. 3.9 out of 5 stars The atmosphere isn't built for me, but the kitchen is good enough that I'd get over it to spend an evening with my beer-drinking friends. What would push this higher: a space that compels me the way the plates do.

The bar itself is unpretentious and welcomes everyone. While I was dining at the bar, the rest of the diners were a widely diverse mixture. Witnessing such a vast mixture of people, adds a positive twist to the vibe of the bar. The menu is simple. They focus on what they do best and that's why their smash burger is one of the best. Being a firecracker myself, I ordered the Firecracker Smashburger. It's a single patty, with Pepper Jack Cheese, Tomato-Onion-Jalapeno Relish, Drizzled with a Tangy Fire Ranch and served on a Martin's Potato Roll. The burger was juicy and had those crispy edges that a smash burger is known for. My favorite cheese is Pepper Jack, so that was a big plus for me. The relish added that extra kick that made it a true, Firecracker. I can't enjoy a burger without fries and Jack offers long skinny fries. They had a crispy shell and a soft hot inside. They were simply seasoned with just the right amount of salt. I was impressed that the ketchup was 100% Natural. That gets a big thumbs up. When enjoying a burger and fries, a nice cold beer is always the adult beverage of choice. JN offers a small variety of craft beers on draft and three popular Anheuser-Busch products. I enjoyed a Gumballhead from 3 Floyds Brewing. An American Pale Wheat is a perfect lunchtime beer. The bartenders are personable and offer warm service. I'm definitely coming back the next time I crave a smashburger.

The mushroom burger is unlike any other I've ever had. It's ground up mushroom in the shape of a patty with cheese on the inside that is then breaded and deep-fried. It was good and something new, but I preferred the regular veggie burger. The veggie burger comes with crispy onions, which I loved. The service was also great. We are a family that loves pickles and sometimes when we ask for extra pickles, it doesn't seem like we ever get enough. It was not the case here! They were very generous with the extra pickles which we were really happy about. The cheese fries were standard. The Oreo milkshake seemed pretty standard as well, but milkshakes aren't my favorite thing. Personally, I didn't care for how everything is served without a plate and with the burgers in the paper bags. I think the paper bags the burgers come in are a great idea to stop your hands from getting messy, but I had to take the burger out to realign everything so that all the bread wouldn't be at the very bottom and it just became a mess. Note: 1 burger was enough for me. I thought I was still hungry after and got another and that was a mistake!
