Annie Gunns is a staple for a solid and delicious meal. We went there for lunch and both ordered the French Dip. I'm 100% convinced you can not find a better French Dip than this (I try them everywhere). It literally melts in your mouth! Service was amazing, our server was super attentive and always kept our drinks refilled. Also, my mother mentioned it was my birthday, nothing like some apple pie for turning 38! Also, you have to run into the Smokehouse when you're done eating. They have a lot of awesome items/food to grab and bring home. read more

I have been to Annie Gunn's numerous times over the past 30+ years. It is always a special treat to dine here. The ambiance is an elevated casual and you can choose to sit in the darkened bar area or the lighter, brighter glassed off area. They also offer private booths, which are quite cool. Today I was meeting up with a former work colleague and friend from Australia. It just so happened that we were in town at the same time. She was having a business lunch meeting at Annie Gunn's, so we decided to meet there after the meeting. I didn't eat, but they did during their meeting and quite enjoyed the food. The three of us (my former colleague and a current colleague of hers) all enjoyed a tea while we caught up. It absolutely tasted fresh brewed. Their first waiter left without clearing the table, so when the new server cleared it up and was so kind, she was rewarded with a nice tip and some Lindt pistachio truffles, which I brought for my friends. 98% of my reviews include photos, but because we were all caught up in conversation, I didn't take any this time. I guarantee you will love the ambiance, service and food. read more

Annie Gunn's -- Man, I've been here twice in one month for lunch. The burger was spot on... probably the best burger I've had in a long while. Fries were great too, and the service was friendly. Came back again and had the pastrami & knockwurst sandwich with the tomato salad -- top notch all the way around. I always enjoy my experience when I visit here. And that sun room? Love it. Definitely looking forward to going back. read more

I have visited the restaurant a couple times. My daughter was in town and we decided to have lunch. I am aware it can get very busy, so I did make reservations. The restaurant is well decorated and very spacious, I love the design of the newest part, the windows make it seem like you are outdoors, it is well lit and has a very cozy atmosphere. Our waitstaff was wonderful, she was attentive, patient and had a great personality. We both ordered a glass of Cabernet. It was bold and fruity, we enjoyed it with our meal, which was a smoked seafood sampler and selection of cheeses. It has been a while since we had this, but it was so mouthwatering and delicious, I have thought about this meal almost everyday. The meats were so tasty and flavorful, the crackers and bread were paired perfectly. The cheeses were smooth, delicate and just unbelievably delicious! The meal with the wine was expensive for lunch, but it was so worth it. I highly recommend this with a group, we could not eat all of food on the platters. read more

Went to dinner with a former colleague and she said she always wanted to order the tomahawk steak. I egged her on and she was not disappointed. Even though her meal was the most expensive one she ever had she knew she would be eating leftovers for a few days so well worth it! I think my next meal at Annie Gunn's will be this steak but I plan to eat it all at the restaurant! Our waitress was extremely attentive and I dare say attractive! Her service left nothing to be desired. It was a wonderful evening catching up with a friend and being entertained by her tackling this steak! read more

Annie Gunn's - Outstanding 40oz tomahawk steak! - American Near Me - Chesterfield, Missouri

Had drinks and dinner here this evening. The vodka martini was excellent. The bartender was so friendly and let us stand by the bar for a bit until we found a place to stand. It was only 5:15 and fully packed as usual. When we asked for a table the next available was 9:30 and they put us in a waiting list. Guess what??? A cancellation came and we got a table at 5:30. If you've ever been there you know this place is always busy and always amazing! The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. Two bars! And several years ago the patio was enclosed as part of the restaurant and has a wall windows. Also, there are now rooms for big parties AND a room to have private parties and it is beautiful!!! So our waiter gave us a sample of a very good wine! Excellent. I ordered the french dip, which I've had several times. Tonight it was exceptionally delicious! Soft, yet crunch bread, cheese and amazingly tender beef, served with au jus and horse radish. Outstanding tonight! And fries also. But that french dip was THEE best ever. Gotta try it! I can't say enough! read more

We stopped in without a reservation. Although we didn't wait an inordinate amount of time, I would recommend a reservation. All the staff were nice and let us know we could wait in the bar area and the bartender on either side would take note and give us a seat there when available. A spot opened up at the Wine Cabinet? I am not sure what it was called but it was a bar type spot but had a waitress for service. The seat was perfect when we didn't have a reservation, our server was attentive, and we never felt lost in the shuffle on a busy night. There were about six spots here and another couple sat later in our meal but no one else joined the open spots. Rebecca, our server, was fantastic! She went through the specials and answered my questions, made a recommendation on a drink that was great, the Winterberry. She checked in on us regularly while hustling as it was a Friday night. We ordered wings, they were pretty good, crispy is a must and they were. I got the halibut salad with a 1/2 gem salad. The salad was large for a side. Our entrees arrived in a timely manner, my halibut cooked perfectly. Asparagus and butternut squash were just the right amount and very good. It came with a polenta cake, it was ok, I haven't had it often so not sure if I even like it. We were stuffed by then but couldn't pass up apple pie, it is so good! We took it to go and with the leftovers, Rebecca packed up everything nicely. I recommend a reservation but our overall experience without one was great. read more

This place does not disappoint! First of all, the location, ambiance is classy and beautiful. Fireplace set the tone. The food is always top tier. Had the fresh oysters, delicious! Had the lambs chops for the first time. Wow! I will be back again just for the Chops. Last, but definitely not least, Abby! Our server was all smiles, pleasant, knowledgeable, friendly and made sure everything was cooked to perfection. Just made the complete experience wonderful. Be sure and request the lamb chops for dinner and Abby as your server. read more

I took my parents here last Sunday. I'll say, our meal wasn't as good as last time we went in October. But it was still good. The potato pancake was a bit mushy. And the apple pie seemed off. My steak was good. My dad's French dip was good. My mom got a Caesar salad with chicken and the chicken was cold. She was bummed. I guess you need to ask about that but who doesn't want grilled chicken on a salad. Especially at a place like Annie Gun's. Our service was wonderful. There was a table behind us with loud little kids we had trouble talking. But that was at the end of our meal. We will try again in spring! read more

Annie Gunn's - 10 oz fillet. - American Near Me - Chesterfield, Missouri

Annie Gunn's will always be special to us. We had our wedding reception here, so coming back for our anniversary just felt right. Once again, they made it a memorable experience. The drinks were fantastic. The Bloody Mary had the perfect kick, the Maker's Mark espresso martini was smooth and bold, and the dirty martini was exactly how it should be: strong and delicious. We started with the carpaccio, and it was phenomenal. Easily one of the freshest we've ever had. It melted in our mouths. A really nice touch was the sparkling wine served with all dinners, which added to the celebratory vibe without us even having to ask. We were also treated to a complimentary apple pie with cinnamon-flavored Clementine's ice cream for our anniversary, and it was just as good as it sounds. Warm, flavorful, and the perfect sweet ending. The service was wonderful. Multiple staff members checked in on us to make sure everything was going well, and they were genuinely kind and attentive. The lamb chop was cooked perfectly, and my husband loved the sweet & savory glaze. A few small things to note: the caprese tasted super fresh but could have been colder, and the filet, while flavorful, wasn't quite warm enough. The plate was actually hotter than the steak itself. We were also seated at a table in the bar area with our 6-month-old (which wasn't ideal) but we made the reservation the same day for 7:30pm and felt lucky to get a table at all. All in all, Annie Gunn's still knows how to make a night feel special. We're so glad we chose to celebrate here again. read more

This is my friend's favorite restaurant and it definitely didn't disappoint! The service was top notch. Adam - our server - was amazing! Super friendly and took care of us! The restaurant is poppin' - fairly loud and lively. We ordered: Shrimp (6) - very smokey Foie gras - the medallion was a bit small for the price but tasted amazing Potato soup - very creamy (but I don't really like potato) Steak - friend said it was good Duck - the duck was cooked to perfection and the sauce that paired with it was incredible - the wild rice that came with it left something to be desired - it tasted like licorice Miro special - this was so unique and yummy. Sweet, salty, spicy, all the flavors Creme brulee - creamy and custard - no complaints This place is great and I'd definitely be back the next time I'm in town read more

I came from out of town and specially asked to come to Annie Gunn's for dinner because I remembered coming here all the time and had great meals , when I used to visit my family and when I used to call on STL as my territory for work . WELL , tonight was probably will be my / our last visit to your restaurant. We had the reservation in one of the private room , our waitress was Ashley , initially she was very attentive then we ordered and everything went downhill from there . We ordered tomatoes salad to share , literally 45 mins have passed and the salad was not there . I had my soup and my bread as we were all waiting for the tomatoes salad , it took 2 of us to reach out to Ashley , she said she was sorry because she forgot to ring it into the system . I am very disappointed in the food and service tonight , it seems like you guys are busy but you can't have great customer service. I am writing this to you not to get any incentive , I am writing you to possible train your servers to be more thorough , if you feel like they have too many tables , please have a list for extra servers for emergency help or moreover , the manager should step in and help so we do not have to experience this ever again . Waiting for tomatoes salad , waiting for drinks refills , these are all not acceptable to us . Thank you for the birthday apple pie and ice cream , we love your market and will continue to support . Thank you for your time . read more

Held my son and daughter-in-laws rehearsal dinner here and I cannot say enough. The service was exceptional. The ambience is fantastic and the team works with you to build a menu that works only with your pallet but with your price point. We had the appetizers served family style at the tables so that folks had something to eat as a peruse. The menu in front of them and orders were taken further salads and entrées. The bartenders were spot on. They were a very efficient and extremely flexible if we wanted a particular Wine brought in we could bring it in. I was even able to bring in monogrammed ice cubes. read more

Having to stay in for our anniversary meant carryout. We found out one of our favorite places actually does offer carryout outside of their deli/meat market menu. The experience was truly just as impeccable as dining in. Everything was packaged nicely, especially given part of our order was their cheeseboard. It was very easy to order with friendly staff. We will definitely be ordering again for date nights in. It's the experience you love from Annie Gunn's but to-go. read more

Awesome experience. I got the Caesar salad with the filet minion- delicious! We also started with the crab cakes that were fantastic as well. read more

Annie Gunn's never fails to impress. We've alway have an excellent meal today, 6oz filet that's always cooked to perfection. Instead of mashed potatoes we get roasted potatoes. Wish they had baked potatoes instead...atmosphere is done in deep rich wood tones and always setup and is always nice and clean, and tables are bussed right away. Abby was our waitress and she was wonderful and pleasant. She stopped by regularly to check on us and fill our drink. She made for a nice afternoon lunch. As always, highly recommended. read more

My daughter & son-in-law are "foodies" like us, and despite all the times they have visited us from KC, we've never taken them to Annie Gunn's. Weeks ago they asked us to watch their kids over New Years while they met up with friends, no problem. So I immediately made a resy at AG's since it was holidays, got a table for 6 (4 adults plus their 2 school age daughters, who a restaurant "pros" despite their ages. Day of the resy, my son in law had a situation that would keep them from arriving in time for our 5:30 resy, so I called the restaurant and asked if we could push back our reservation to 6:30, no problem they said. We arrived Tuesday night, cold & blustery and were seated in a very warm & inviting room with a fireplace. Service was prompt & attentive, drinks we ordered were spot on and delicious: Old Fashions for my daughter and son in law, Grey Goose martini for me and a white wine for my wife. The drinks were very satisfying! Annie Gunn's has an incredible list of off-menu specials to choose from, probably 6 fresh fish specials, plus dry aged steaks prepared any number of ways. My daughter & son in law both ordered steaks, a filet for her and a ribeye for him, both cooked perfectly. Beautifully plated sides of mashed potatoes & asparagus, the presentation was fantastic! I had their big eye tuna special, as I'm Partial to fresh fish. Big eye tuna is a cut below ahi, and tonite's dish came with a brown gravy covering the fish, which I ordered rare. Eh, the gravy was an adjustment for me, it tasted fine but hard to discern the fish flavor. My sides were also mashed potatoes and 2-3 spears of asparagus, perfectly cooked. My wife, who eats mostly plant based, ordered an appetizer of smoked shrimp which she said was delicious, and she devoured the dish. Our two grandkids ordered kid sized portions of steak, with fries as a side and really seemed to enjoy it. Everything was delicious, perfectly prepared and plated. For desert, we ordered a large slice of their apple pie, covered in vanilla ice cream, and a nice sad iced slice of their flourless chocolate cake. Both were delicious and devoured by our group. I had an espresso as well, it was tasty. Annie Gunn's doesn't disappoint. It's a great restaurant, priced on the high side, but worth it. Our server was attentive throughout our meal. Highly recommend Annie Gunn's! read more

One and done, The overpriced special was one of the worst Ribeye steaks I ever had. Lacked flavor and was overcooked. Waitress said she was sorry, did not offer to replace it. Shame to take a 80.00 piece of meat home and make Fajitas from it. read more

Great food and excellent service, although a little pricey, but definitely worth it! The fish was very fresh and cooked to perfection!

WOW!! My boyfriend and I came on our three year anniversary for a date night. We started with a couple drinks and they came in a timely manner. I got a crisp dry Sauvignon blanc and he got a tequila neat (no judgement there, he's put up with me for a long time) To start, I ordered the caprese salad special - this was so delicious and the basil was crazy fresh. My boyfriend got their famous potato soup - and i gotta say - I will be dreaming about it until I can come back for it. Next, I ordered their filet mignon and my partner got the sirloin. Cooked to perfection and the flavor was immaculate to where I didn't need extra salt or sauce! (Which is unheard of for me?!) To add, the creamy whipped potatoes they came with were also amazing and the sweet vegetable was great for my palate. We weren't expecting anything for it being our anniversary but they gave us complimentary champagne and a dessert. The apple pie with the cinnamon ice cream... o m g.... It is a MUST TRY. I couldn't believe how good it was. Apart from the food, the service was outstanding. You could tell the staff genuinely wanted us to have a good experience and they worked well as a team. This company knows what they are doing and are doing a dang good job. We will 110% be back. read more

Simply put this is one of if not the finest restaurants in Metropolitan St. Louis. The quality and the staff keep people coming back time and time again.

If you want an amazing steak, this is the place to go! The Cabernet cracked pepper butter is so delicious and both steaks were cooked perfectly medium rare. The sides are also delicious. The sopa de tortilla was excellent. I recommend trying the apple pie with cinnamon ice cream if you want a top tier dessert. It was incredible. I really don't think you could miss with anything on the menu. Our server, Elizabeth, was lovely. She was so knowledgeable and took great care of us. Overall I can't recommend this place enough. I would make a trip to St. Louis just to come here! read more

Food selection was vast. Loved the oysters and smoked shrimp appies. Steak cooked to perfection. Judith was a gem of a server. Made sure kids meals came out first so they didn't fuss. Would come back another time to sit at the bar. It looked fun and inviting Ambience was perfect for a family. They put us in a little room so if the kids fussed, we could slide the door closed. Best bread pudding! read more

In the past, we have had AMAZING dining experiences at Annie Gunn's, but last night it just didn't meet our expectations. We came for my partner's 21st birthday last night, and were seated in a cramped little table between a fireplace and a booth despite making the reservation roughly 2 months in advance. We were given complimentary champagne shots upon seating, which was a nice touch--our server was also very friendly! We ordered the beef tartare and cheese board for appetizers, however we were only about halfway through them before we were told that our entrees were arriving shortly, in which another server took our board and offered to re-plate or box it up for us. It made us feel kind of rushed. I ordered the lamb chops which while they had very little meat on each chop, were very good! My partner ordered the red snapper special and requested a white wine pairing of our server's choice to go with it, which he never received. She did have a big table next to us, so it was understandable that she may have gotten sidetracked and just forgot, but still kind of disappointing considering the occasion. We finished our entrees and were given a complimentary creme brûlée for dessert, which was not very good in my opinion--it was quite watery. The apple pie is MUCH better, in fact it is probably one of my favorite things on the planet--however, my partner was recently diagnosed with celiac hence the substitution. Overall, I can't say that this particular experience was worth the price tag and I hope the next time we come it is the experience that we are more previously accustomed to from Annie Gunn's. read more

The over all experience was less than desirable. The bartenders were spooning out Guinness to make it less frothy. I watched our bartender look up the basic drink I ordered and it was still wrong. Once we were seated at the table we were there another 2.5 hrs. A $70 steak came out way over cooked. We were a table of 4 and watched every table around us come in after us and leave before us including a large table. The server was nice, but just getting a round of drinks took over 20 min every round. The food took an hour and half. After sitting that long we were just over it. I took my salad home and ate half the next day when I found a whole clothing tag in it. We spent over $600 and felt like we were being held hostage to just get in and out for dinner. I've heard other love this place, we just didn't have the best experience. read more

Annie Gunn's is the perfect spot for an elevated date night. They have an enormous wine list, and their food is incredible. My husband and I had an excellent dinner here to celebrate his birthday! For an appetizer we ordered the crab cakes. I liked the addition of more southwest flavors from the black beans and chipotle aioli, but the andouille sausage did overpower the crab a little. For our main dishes, my husband got a fish special they had that night which he really enjoyed. I ordered the 6oz filet mignon. While the sides were a little bit lackluster, the steak was probably the most delicious steak I have ever eaten. Our server was attentive, as well as all of the other staff members moving throughout the restaurant. They were extremely busy (as I'm sure they always are), but we were still checked on frequently. Because it was my husband's birthday, they gave us a slice of apple pie with cinnamon ice cream. It was the perfect sweet end to a very tasty meal! I would highly recommend making a reservation fairly far in advance - they book up early! read more

Ask for Kimberly and tell her the Lip sent you. Clearly a first ballot for the Server Hall of Fame! Her wonderful and dedicated support allowed the three of us to decide on a plethora of tasty appetizers, unbelievable entrées and decadent desserts like crème brûlée.

Very conflicted on my star rating for this place. The pork chop was just okay, but the mashed potatoes were the best I've ever had. Service was pretty good too, and the ambiance is 5 stars all the way. But when the headline entree is just okay, 4 stars is as good as it gets. Came in on a Wednesday night for dinner. Would have had a wait for a table, but got a bar stool straight away. Started with their featured Manhattan. For $12 it was perfect. Complete with those really expensive purple cherries over one big rock. Ordered the pork chop for dinner. The chop itself was just okay. A bit over cooked (was not asked how I wanted it done) with chopped peaches and a béarnaise sauce. The peaches were good, the sauce wasn't needed. The chop just didn't have a lot of flavor to it, a real disappointment for a 'smoke house.' On the other hand, they laced the mashed potatoes with horseradish and they were Devine. I will begin putting horseradish in every batch of mashed potatoes I make from this day forward. My server/bartender had been working there for 18 years. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The wine list is a joy just to read through all the quotes. If I lived here, I would come back again and try the beef and seafood! read more

Yum . Went yesterday for my husband's BD lunch. We had Nick as our great server. I invited our daughter & SIL last minute to join us, which they did. We four had a great lunch. D & SIL both got fish specials, my husb chose the lunch fillet medallions w/MP/mush pan sauce & green beans & squash. I chose the Pastrami (held the bockwurst) sandwich, similar to a Rueben, & fries. It was extremely busy at 1:00 when we arrived but we had resv & were seated appropriately & timely. Our experience was fantastic! & service provided by Nick was exceptional! Cheers to Nick!

It's my first time here. I booked a table for Friday lunch. Cozy atmosphere. Food and service were excellent. Our filet mignon (medium rare ) and ribeye (medium) were cooked perfectly as ordered. We also enjoyed clam chowder every much. My little one got his own order fish and chips( snapper). I could taste the freshness in the fish. Tartare sauce was delicious, paired well with fish and fries. It'd be nice if the fish came in one big piece instead. Cream brûlée was to die for. We"ll definitely come back. read more
