I can't even tell you how long I've wanted to come here for brunch! ForEVAH!!! And it was a bit disappointing for me. The food was good, but not really great. Same for the service. I wasn't expecting such an industrial-like interior, and I think that's what made the place deafening loud. I really don't understand why restaurants don't think about acoustics, but they SHOULD. It really factors into the overall experience. read more

Came here before a show with some friends and ordered lavishly from the menu. Everything we ordered was great. We started with the flatbread and the hot shrimp appetizer. Both great, the hot shrimp was not hot, more flavorful than spicy so if anyone is on the fence about ordering, just do it! Then we had the filets with the seasonal veggie and Caesar salad and it was great. Well prepared steaks. And Claire, our server, was excellent. Very attentive, friendly, and fun! We had the lemon and the lava cake for dessert with coffee and lemoncello. All very very good. Great restaurant, never a disappointing meal. One tiny critique, or rather suggestion. The coffee creamer would have been nicer to have the pour cream rather than the little diner creams. Other than that, delicious. read more

Fantastic service on 2/13/26. Busy but warm & inviting atmosphere. Our server, Claire, was welcoming and alert. We ordered the rice balls, Caesar salad, wedge salad and for our mains we had the chicken parm and ribeye both with pasta & cream sides. Dessert was the lava cake and cheesecake. Everything was incredible! read more

We normally come here for dinner. I have been to brunch here a few times, but I wanted to bring our kids here so they could experience the brunch as well. All of us were happy with our meal choices, left full, and had leftovers! The service is always AMAZING, along with the food. We tried the biscuit butter platter as a starter and got all 3 butter flavors. Cinnamon and Blueberry lemon were our favorite! We sat downstairs this time, but they have plenty of seating upstairs as well. The decor is always so cute and everyone is very friendly and helpful. A must go if you are in St. Louis! read more

Had a reservation for a Wednesday night. Despite a nearly empty restaurant we were seated just inside the door. I ordered the lobster risotto which was flavorful and had a good amount of lobster. My husband ordered the ribeye medium rare. It was served as ordered. I had to stop the waitress on her second pass by to order a second drink. All in all, it was only an ok experience. read more

As a first time visitor for Sunday brunch, I thought the food was pretty good. It was a bit awkward walking into what I assume is the bar area because we not were greeted or directed where to go. This kind of set an impression of being unwelcoming in the beginning but when we walked around the corner past the dinning area to the host stand we were greeted and seated. We ordered shrimp and grits, which was good but I personally think the dish would've been elevated if they used a tempura batter instead of just grilling it in order to give the dish some different textures. The biscuits and gravy were kind of hard and we ordered the fries with the same gravy and for some reason the gravy on the fires tasted way better than on the biscuits. I also had pancakes which were delicious and the cheesy grits which were delicious and very creamy. I have just started taking a looking to grits and so far these are the best I've had. I didn't need to add anything to it. I would definitely love to go back for the grits, fries, and pancakes and try something new. read more

Carnivore was busy on a Sunday but great. They handled our large party with grace & pleasantries. Just before the weather broke so we were able to dine outside (enjoying both the weather & atmosphere of The Hill). I enjoyed the shrimp & grits with an added over easy egg. The hostess didn't flinch at my unorthodox drink request & it was made to perfection. Plenty of seating indoors, outdoors as well as the bar area. I'll be back to try additional dishes. ~Christy recommended read more

Went for Sunday brunch with reservations. Would not seat us until we were all present. Service was fine. It is a VERY noisy place. Difficult to have conversations without shouting which everyone was doing. The food was just ok. Nothing exceptional offered. Prepared ok but more like diner quality. read more

It is Dine out with our County friends night. It is our turn to pick a city restaurant. We chose Carnivore since we have not been there for quite a while. We made reservation for Thursday (tonight). They do have a waiting list when it gets busy. Tonight the table had a mix of choices for entrees. Two chicken Risotto dishes ,one ribeye steak and one caprese flatbread. My wifes friend and I had the chicken Risotto and it was delicous. A smooth creamy taste and melt in your mouth cubes of chicken, with sundried tomatoes and asparagus in a white wine sauce. This combination was a fantastic blend of flavors and textures. My wife had the flatbread. A flatbread brushed with olive oil with roma tomatoes ,mozzarella cheese with a balsamic vinegar drizzle glaze. She said the crust was crunchy and a tangy flavor with the balsamic drizzle and melted mozzarella cheese. My friend had the ribeye steak medium rare blackened with a baked potato side He enjoyed it and made quick work of it. This restaurant has lots of choices which makes this location a good place to have a quiet little dinner or a special family occasion. Everyone can get what they want with out just getting a steak which Carnivore is known for. Do not miss this fantastic restaurant in the Italian "Hill area of St. Louis. One more comment , our server Clair, was courteous and professional and attended to our questions and concerns with a smile and enthusiasm. Go see Clair at Carnivore soon. read more

Came 2 times in a single week. Came my first time for brunch and had the fluffiest pancakes and best bacon of my life. Idk how they make the pancakes so thick and fluffy (ricotta?) but i'll never be able to eat other pancakes again. The blueberry butter on top was to die for. My only wish is that they move away from disposable smuckers syrup. I came back 3 days later for dinner and got the lemon chicken with a side of pasta, it was delicious and was a massive portion! It made work lunch the next day delicious. I can't wait to go back! read more

I was texting a friend last week about Carnivore and for my review, I'll share excerpts from what I sent her: "Btw next time you're thinking The Hill, if you haven't tried Carnivore yet, I cannot recommend that place enough. I've had almost every item on their menu since it opened 6 years ago. Flavors and textures are unique and thoughtful. Specialty cocktails and desserts are also well crafted...I get stuck on faves at a lot of restaurants. But with Carnivore, I like to go there when I don't know what I'm in the mood for... a few years ago they started making tacos and speciality margs on Tuesdays so good..." and the brunch options are delightful. Overall, the atmosphere supports a comfortable dining experience.. One final note--Carnivore is one of the few restaurants these days where I've seen the same servers which I assume is a testament to good ownership and management. read more

Great food and great service every time I've been!! Taco Tuesdays are my favorite, but I have yet to have a bad meal or service here and will happily return anytime!! read more

Wonderful food and drinks. Had an affordable glass of red wine... $7. A few apps. The spicy goat cheese with the crostinis is AMAZING. the carnivore shrimp reminds me of something in southern Louisiana. Just delicious read more

EXCELLENT BRUNCH!! my mom had never been here and now i have been here for both brunch and dinner!!! It's better everytime

Our server was fantastic, very attentive, and on the ball about everything. My boyfriend and I's steaks were definitely overcooked, and the pasta was alright, just kind of watery. They were busy so we didn't say anything. It was a nice night, and the place was warm lit, relaxed and a good atmosphere. The place itself and people were good, just didn't feel as though my food was worth what i paid. Maybe it was just busy as it was valentines day. read more

We have eaten here twice. Both great experiences. The second time we went we were with a party of 10. The server was attentive and our food came out surprisingly fast. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food and said they would go back!! read more

Carnivore - Risotto fillet - Steakhouses Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Just dined at this steakhouse this evening. Disappointed is the best description of our experience, especially for a $116 check (for two people). Girlfriend got a 6 oz filet that was ordered medium well but arrived well done with no hint of pink in it at all and was completely flavorless, it had no sear on it and appeared to be incorrectly cooked by steaming it. She also got the carnivore potatoes and they were surprisingly bland. Neither the potatoes or steak appeared to be cooked with any salt or garlic. I ordered the steak modiga which we both came to the conclusion that it was a ribeye trimmed to pass as a filet cut. Very suspicious grain of the meat plus it had marbling through the middle of it. This was supposed to be a filet according to the menu. Ordered as a medium but arrived as a rare to medium rare depending on the part of the steak. Another couple a few tables away from us had to send their food back at least once and ended up getting food taken off their check. So they disappointed at least two tables tonight. We have no interest in returning. read more

Food was excellent and the service was great. Good atmosphere and you're not sitting elbow to elbow. Great dining experience

We had arancini and the stuffed jalapeño appetizer. Arancini weren't what we were used to, there is no meat inside. The jalapeños were good and spicy hot. Loved the salsiccia inside. Steak was very good and cooked well. Salmon was delicious. The pasta with whit cream sauce is AMAZING! Loved it. Our server Claire was great. Only complaint was it is very loud inside. read more

We always have a wonderful experience at Carnivore! The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot to unwind -- especially during their fantastic happy hour. The food was absolutely delicious; the steak medallions were perfectly cooked and full of flavor, and we couldn't get enough of the crispy arancini and fresh, tasty caprese flatbread. Excellent drinks, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere -- we'll definitely be coming back! read more

Delicious! Amazing service! Easy parking. Our food was superb. Great all around restaurant.

On the Hill! Despite probably having excellent carnivorous food items, I've liked the risotto so much I've just gotten the pastas repeatedly. The chicken risotto (with asparagus) and seasonal primavera (vegetarian) are delicious. read more

Vibe is OK. A bit noisy due to lack of sound absorbing material. The food was good. Not great, especially given the price. Service was very good. Would not go again read more

I have been to Carnivore several times, and each time I have been impressed. My favorite thing about Carnivore, is that you have items on the menu that typically only residents that call The Hill HOME know. Seriously, I have never seen luganiga anywhere on a menu (btw, it's delicious. And we love it) Once I stopped in before heading to The Fox. There were happy hour specials, so my girlfriends and I ordered several appetizers to share. I have been reminiscing about the arancini ever since! They were amazing Then I went to Brunch with friends. My husband who grew up on The Hill ordered the Italian Slinger. (He is hard to impress) He LOVED it, could not stop talking about it. Called his Italian mom, and asked her why didn't she make it. It was impressively delicious read more

The food is always on point. Service is a hit and miss yet great. Our daughter loves the fries burgers and now steaks

That's a darn good Burger... ok, I skipped ahead. Brightly lit and open space, the Bar is separated from the dining area, but it gets pretty loud in here, so sit close to your dining companion. Noise level aside, the food and service was great. Reservation for 3 at 7p and was seated promptly at arrival. Started with the Shrimp appetizer and man that's an awesome sauce! So good in fact that I dipped the complimentary bread in the sauce, oh yes! The portion on the appetizer is large enough for 3 people, unless you're starving, then 2 people. Next up, the Burger and Fries. Medium-Well on the cook add American and crispy Bacon. Seasoning was on point and it was definitely juicy. Fries were crispy and also seasoned, but not overwhelming. My meal companions ordered the Shrimp Scampi Pasta and Salmon w/Salad respectively and nothing left on their plates if that gives you an idea. Enjoy! read more
