I absolutely LOVE goat & rabbit. Everytime we come out the drinks are spot on. If you are a goat…read morecheese lover you have to try whatever floats your goat! Such a great drink. I love that this place has multiple different themes through out the year and gives fresh new menus in addition to their core menu. The only complaint that I have is that I feel like they need to hire more staff or just simply staff at least two bartenders. My friends and I visited on a Tuesday night and the poor girl was getting slammed. We unfortunately were only able to order one round of drinks cause she could not keep up- we ended up tabbing out and heading somewhere else. She was a great bartender and super nice- Just felt like she needed extra hands! Will definitely be back regardless!

Plush velvet, marble, a giant butterfly chandelier, lists upon lists of spirits. The whole thing is wildly opulent. Even the restaurant admits that no expense was spared creating the space. I ordered a Manhattan up, because I am incapable of ordering anything else. The bourbon selection is excellent, the cocktails are serious, the ambiance is everything, it feels so sophisticated. Whoever decorated this place... congratulations. You deserve an award.

Drinks were good. Service staff was rough…read more We had a reservation but there was no one to greet us. We looked around for a minute before a server noticed us and was like "uhhh we'll put you here at the end of the bar." Our bartender was fine but the other guy was doing all this flare and nonsense to get everyone's attention. He was the loudest person at the bar and inserted himself in our conversation twice. He clearly wanted attention which we found annoying and distracting. The drinks were good and the vibe was generally good. A nice eclectic mix of people. The DJ was great too! The service staff seemed very rough in both their interactions and their appearance. I hadn't been here in years, but I remember it being a far more refined and polished experience than what he had last night. Lastly, I don't think our $50 deposit was applied to our check. I forgot about it until this morning and didn't bring the receipt home. We each only had one drink and my total charge was $52. Not the end of the world but just another point in how they don't appear to be as on top of their service as I've previously experienced.

You get two hours in the Igloo, with complimentary hot cocoa and delicious cookies. It's super cute! I went with the girls but this is definitely date night worthy. You can order food and drinks also. I ordered the Birria Bites, Pomme Frites and Snickerdoodle Martini. My friends ordered the Honey Chipotle Chicken Wings, Pomme Frites and the Lemon Thyme Soda Mocktail. The Birria Bites were a 6/10. The Snickerdoodle Martini 10/10. My friends thought the chicken wings were about a 5/10. They liked their mocktail. We all agreed the Pomme Frites were good. 8/10. Cookies were a 10/10. The overall experience itself is a definite 10/10 recommend! I'd do it again.

They had their valentines menu so I tried the pretty in pink pick me up which was a creamy strawberry flavored drink that was tasty, so wish there was a little more strawberry, and sparkling pink coffee beans. The palm and oak wasn't strong and was sweet tasting. Also tried the sailors delight which is a warm apple cider flavored drink which was amazing, especially for cold weather. Also tried the snickerdoodle martini which was amazing and I wish I was able to have another. Prices were reasonable and igloo had a heater, speaker, windows, different seating, complimentary cookies and hot chocolate, and 3 types of games to play. I would definitely love to come back, especially at sunset.

It has a very aesthetic, elevated feel. I ordered the burnt end flatbread, which had great flavor, but it could've used a little more time in the oven for a better crisp. The crème brûlée was a bit disappointing, as it didn't have that classic crunchy top that you expect. That being said, the espresso martini was one of the best I've had in a while definitely a highlight. Overall, the ambiance is a 10/10, the drinks are excellent, and the food was a bit hit or miss...

But I had yet to try the Parker in the hotel until my most recent visit and let me tell you, i've been sleeping on this place! We stopped in here for a quick bit before a concert and it was such a great idea! The service was wonderful! The bartenders were super friendly and fun to chat with. We just ordered two apps and a couple drinks but they all were amazing! I would love to come here again and get an entree as well as try other things. The restaurant is located pretty high up in the hotel so you also have a fun view. The vibes are just right giving a slightly elevated atmosphere. It wasn't busy at all so their was no wait which was nice since we were on a schedule! Overall, this is a great spot if you are staying at the Fontaine or in the area.

The Puttery completely blew me away!!…read more This place had been on my list to try out for a long time and I wish I'd gone sooner. It's located in a cool area in the middle of the plaza right underneath Chiefs Fit gym. As soon as you enter you get a feel for the great ambiance and fun variety of music. We came in during a cold snowy day and took full advantage of the FREE coat check at the front desk. On the first floor there's a mini golf course as well as a full bar and seating area. Once you go downstairs though, you'll see just how massive the place is. Theres TONS of seating and cool little nooks to hangout in which make it great for a date night or corporate events. Once you get into the mini golf there's some great courses to check out. Each one has a different theme and they make it super simple to track your points. Simply enter the names of all your players on the touch screen at the first hole, then enter the number of strokes afterwards. After that it will follow you throughout the course until you're finished and tell you who wins at the end! There's also a place to sit your drinks at the start of each hole with a menu of course specific cocktails that I highly recommend trying. Every part of this place is perfect to take pictures and have a great time. But in my opinion, the true highlight of the Puttery is the food. I had the pleasure of meeting the head chef while here and he truly puts his heart into the menu. Our server Mariah was also super helpful giving us drink and food recommendations throughout our time here. Everything sounded amazing but I had to go with the Cajun Chicken Philly since I'm a sucker for a Philly sandwich. It was one of my favorite sandwiches I've ever had. From the soft delicious bread to the unbelievably juicy and tender chicken, this was such a great dish. The combination of ingredients and the plating itself made it clear that nothing comes as an afterthought here. I also tried the loaded fries which were a great recent addition to the menu. Last, we finished it off by trying the Tiramisu, Raspberry Donut Cheesecake, and the Bourbon Bread Pudding. Each one was really amazing but my favorite was the Raspberry Donut Cheesecake, and I'm not even a huge cheesecake fan! I definitely plan to come back here just for the food because it was so delicious!! And on top of that, they recently started a meal prep service which I plan to take full advantage of! Overall you can tell that every detail is thought through at the Puttery. It truly feels like a luxury experience with an element of fun to round it out. The service is amazing and the food and drinks are to die for. If you're ever looking for a fun date night, a group outing, or even just a place for a solo dinner or drinks, you have to check this place out!

We did all of that and took quite a bit of snapshots along the way. First stop in at front to indicate the experience you want to have. Maleah handled our check-in and they offer a coat check as well. There are 3 courses: First floor, Art Museum; Basement level has Conservatory and Rooftop courses. All have unique displays curated with 9-holes to take on. You can enjoy drinks while you goto each hole which makes for more enjoyment! I'm not going to lie; it was very challenging and extremely fun! We hit all 3 courses. As far as playing mini-golf and attempting to do well, I'd say I like the Conservatory course. We pretty much were there until closing. There was also food & drinks a part of our visit. We sat at the bar where Madi served up 3 great drinks and we go to try the Spinach Artichoke dip. She made us Espresso martini and then a Pumkin flavored martini, both tasted exactly as expected with a bit a Baileys for added flavor.

Pescatarian Verdict: #stlouispescatarianapproved…read more Gram & Dun is one of my Kansas City constants. Every time I'm in town, I try to make my way here! This trip, I went straight for the shrimp tacos. They had a little kick, which I loved. Give me spicy shrimp and I'm a happy human. But the real non-negotiable item is the the not so standard potato chips with dipping sauces. Gram & Dun serves them with Parmesan and a sauce flight featuring gold sauce, comeback sauce and black pepper bourbon ketchup. The restaurant is also open for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, so you have plenty of opportunities to make poor decisions involving those chips. I've been here several times, and I'll keep coming back. That's probably the best review I can give.

The chairs are incredibly comfortable, exactly what you'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber. Great wine selection, and the cocktails were excellent. We started with the spinach artichoke dip -- a little on the creamy side, which is a good thing if you like it that way. Served with tortilla chips. I ordered the octopus appetizer as my main. It was perfectly cooked -- slightly crispy without being overdone, which is rare for octopus. The potatoes underneath were a touch underdone for my taste, but the sauce tied everything together nicely. The shrimp and grits were outstanding. The grits were cooked perfectly -- having spent a lot of time in the South, I know good grits when I taste them. The shrimp was crispy on the outside and juicy inside, but the real star was the sauce. My friend said it was described as an avocado sauce, but it had a spicy kick that reminded me almost of Indian food. Service was outstanding. Great place if you're on the plaza and want good quality food or drinks
