    This review is a bit over due. My friend and I were there on Saturday June 6th. We arrived at 1:25 and were greeted with "just so you know, we close at 2". We said that would be OK. We were seated at a table and told that was the only spot available because the rest of the dining room was cleaned and closed for the day. Server brought water and menus and asked for our order immediately. I had never been there before and said I would need a few minutes to look at the menu. Her response was that she wanted to get the order in before the kitchen shutdown the grill. It only took a couple of minutes to order and food came out quickly. She brought the bill at the same time and asked if we could pay before eating so that the cashier could close out for the day. My friend obliged and left a very generous tip in spite of the unfriendly and unprofessional attitude. We didn't see our server again...no follow up, no refills. My breakfast was good, crispy hash browns, sausage and scrambled eggs. My friend got a burger that she couldn't eat, said it tasted bad. I don't think I'll be returning. Perhaps management could revise the hours sign. Closing at 2, no one will be seated after 1 so that we can better serve you.

    Golden Oak is a great place for breakfast! I have been here several times and my favorite thing is how big this place is! It can sometimes be frustrating how crowded breakfast places can get with minimal seating. Sometimes on the weekends I just want a good breakfast, coffee and don't want to wait an hour for seating. Service is always friendly and fast! You are greeted as soon as you arrive. I have never had to wait for seating as there are so many tables. I have had pancakes, eggs, sausage and all have been delicious! They have a huge menu with so many options. The coffee is fresh and continuously refilled. This would also be an excellent choice for a large group! Looking for a good service, solid breakfast menu with quick seating check out Golden Oak!

    Pancakes. Good but could have been better.

    Lots of rave reviews for this place so I had to try it. It was pretty decent but didn't wow me for sure. I will definitely give it another shot because I could see the potential. My pancakes had that good malty maybe is the word flavor I like but they were too thick and cake like. That may have been a one off and not an always thing? I had the country omelette and the sausage was so strong it overpowered the rest of the dish. It wasn't terrible but I'll order one without sausage and with cheddar cheese next time. It came with American cheese which I thought I'd like but didn't so much. Otherwise my server was nice but slow on drink refills especially for how slow it was on a Tuesday morning. The place is huge and would be hopping if it was a full house. Definitely worth a shot if you're a breakfast person.

    I ordered the Two Egg Breakfast with my eggs scrambled, I chose fresh fruit versus hash browns, and pancakes versus toast. The eggs had the brown marks meaning they were overcooked. The fruit was fresh and tasty. The pancakes were not quite right. The pancakes were cooked completely but they were not fluffy and they tasted a little dried out. I suggest they add some baking soda to make them fluffy and some vanilla to improve the flavor. I received good service. There's a large parking lot in front of the restaurant.

    Everything we ordered was delicious! The portions are huge. Our server was very friendly and efficient, kept our coffee cup filled! They have a good breakfast selection, so we will return to try something else. They're also open for lunch. Lots of seating, they weren't too busy until about 830. There are several booths and tables, nicely spread out for good dining experience.

    My friends and I lifted at The Edge next door and decided to get breakfast/ lunch after! We walked in and we're promptly seated. This place is HUGE- so it would be great for large parties. The menu is pretty big, lots of options to choose from. I got an iced coffee with milk to drink. It was your average iced coffee. It was caffeine so no complaints from me! It also came in a mason jar and I love special touches like that. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted since there are so many options! I ultimately settled on the breakfast sandwich with meat. I chose bacon, and it comes with two eggs, cheese, on an everything bagel. I love everything bagels so I was 100% in. My friends got the club sandwich, pancakes with strawberries, and biscuits and gravy. My sandwich was SO good. The bacon was perfectly fried and the cheese was melted a bit. I thought $10 was a bit pricey for only getting the sandwich and no sides- but it was tasty none the less! The pancakes were super good (helped myself of course lol) and the fresh strawberries were so ripe! My friend really liked her club. All in all it was a great meal after working out :)

    This place has all the breakfast menu mush haves. And if you want pancakes, they make the perfect cake! I ordered the Texas two step plate and it was the perfect breakfast combo! The service was fast and wonderful!

    Food is mediocre. I could make a better omelet at home. The prices are outrageous for the quality.

    I was devastated for months because my work schedule wouldn't let me have brunch at Grand Pied. I…read moreliterally dreamed about their pancakes. Today finally came, and I got to visit on a Wednesday lunch. Our hostess and staffs were wonderful and made us feel so special right from the start. Of course, the food was the real highlight. The pancakes were crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and perfectly buttery. The gumbo was rich and flavorful, well-seasoned without being overwhelming. The grits were cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with the gumbo. Everything felt incredibly comforting on a cold day (see finished plates for reference) We came on a Wednesday morning, so it wasn't crowded at all. Such a relaxed, cozy experience.

You sit and order via QR code, with minimal table service (they bring you water/drinks ordered and food, not much else). The food is like 10/5 amazing and quality. I got the herbed goat cheese omelette and it was perfection. The side salad was perfectly dressed. I ate every last bite. No need to add additional seasonings. Husband got the ham & cheese omelette and felt the same. We split kids pancakes to get the toppings on the side. OMG people don't lie these are an indulgent and amazing treat. 4 stars overall because there are literally 0 modifications which is kind of annoying in my opinion. Like, they were out of hoagies and there was no way to say - I'd still get the sandwich just put it on different bread. Or I don't want mayo. Find that odd. I guess it's a choice but it does deter me from rushing back or trying more on the menu, and be aware if you go. Ps does seem there is an allergy option so if you do have an allergy I suppose you can check that but I'm not sure how to note what you need a change; didn't see it in the QR-only ordering.

    This place was superb! Typically I do a little research before visiting a city but since I had…read morealready visited St Louis, I lacked this trip. To be a last minute find a place... that was close by, easy to get into and DELICIOUS! This place checked all the boxes. We went in around noon. We bought parking close to The Arch but it didn't start until 2 PM so we were trying to time it just right. We were here just over 1 hour. It allowed us plenty of time to eat and drive time to Arch parking. It wasn't on purpose but we both ended up with chorizo. I had a chorizo bowl with sunny eggs. I did want some fruit so I ended up with a side of fruit and 2 biscuits. The biscuits are droolworthy; Not enough places make biscuits like that. My wife ordered the chorizo omelet. She loved it but had plenty to take for leftovers. They have a small parking lot but we parked on the nearby side street and didn't have an issue. I thought we'd have to wait for a table but we didn't have any wait. Maybe this is a hidden gem of St Louis. It certainly is to us because it was so tasty. This place deserves all the business. 269 percent worth checking out! What are you waiting for?

Pros: Had a lovely waitress, food was delicious and the restaurant is clean (including bathrooms). Cons: It took 35 minutes for my food to come to the table! I was there at 12pm on a Friday afternoon. There were no more than 10 tables sat so that's concerning. The parking lot is TINY but street parking is scarce so prepare to scout for a spot.
