    Margherita pizza
    John K.

    I ordered the small margherita pizza. The first thing I noticed was all the grease on top of the pizza which was unappetizing. The pizza arrived hot which was nice. This pizza and a lot more cheese than other Margherita pizzas I've ordered in the past. This pizza also had diced tomatoes versus thin slices of the tomato which I also prefer. I was starving so I ate 4 pieces which were not tasty. I received excellent service at the bar from Tiffany. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Charming little restaurant but it missed the mark on this pizza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    (i can't remember the name) stuffed with seafood though

    For a valentines date night, it was amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was so cute and cozy, and the food came out great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is consistent and overall just a very great meal.

    I found myself in Eureka at lunch time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a lot to be said about a place that smells good from outside!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe is traditional Italian restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The team seated us quickly and took good care of us. The menu is fairly extensive and honestly there is something for everyone. The cooler weather has me craving comfort foods. Pasta in a rich red sauce was exactly what I needed. I went with the cannelloni and a side salad. The house dressing was not a favorite. A little too much bite from the vinegar. The creamy Italian dressing was perfect. I was served a generous plate of pasta and sauce with bread so not to miss a single bit of sauce. The meal was reminiscent of some of the places on The Hill. They did a decent job for being so far outside of the city.

    I hadn't been to a Joe Boccardi's location in years. My friend and I stopped in on a Friday evening for a quick dinner on the way out to my farm. We both ordered salads and shared a pepperoni and bacon pizza with extra sauce. It was all great. The pizza is thin and crisp and the toppings were plentiful, especially the bacon. The service was friendly and speedy. I enjoyed the salad as well. I'll definitely be back again for more of this pizza!

    First time here at this long established restaurant in Eureka it was for the most part a positive enjoyable experience. They have a nice covered patio area and bar service is also available, kid friendly and nice clean establishment.We settled on small side salad and a large Joe's special pizza minus green pepper, the salad was good especially with the house dressing, pizza was ok with plenty of toppings but I would have liked a bit more sauce on the crust.

    We were in the area so decided to try something new. This restaurant is nicely decorated and gives all the Italian restaurant vibes down to parmesan cheese on the tables. Menu is standard with lots of tasty options. We knew they had thin crust pizza and opted to share one. We ordered the Joe's Special which is similar to a supreme. Hubby added on a side caesar salad and we also ordered a 6 count toasted ravioli for an appetizer. They offer a bread basket with butter and that arrived first. The bread was cold as if from the fridge and so was the butter. It was okay but nothing exciting. Note that there was also oil on the table in case you want to dip the bread. Hubby reports that the caesar salad was very good with a nice dressing. Toasted ravs were good, but the meat sauce served with them was cold as if from the fridge. I would expect it to be warm. Though I must call out that the plating of them was fabulous! The pizza was average. I didn't love it and expected more. This pizza has hamburger, pepperoni, onion, green pepper and mushroom. We were surprised the mushroom didn't appear fresh though the other ingredients did. I also ordered a side of ranch to dip my pizza in but it was terrible sadly... I didn't even end up using it after tasting it. If you've read any of my reviews you know I appreciate a good ranch and use it a lot. Our service was amazing! Our server answered questions I had, was friendly and stayed on top of drink refills and checking on us. We really enjoyed it. I will point out when Hubby ordered his caesar salad he asked if they offered it in a small size and she said yes and that's what he received. We were also charged appropriately for it. A bit later customers behind us with a different waitress asked for the same thing and the waitress told them no it only comes in full size... so there may be difference experiences with different staff... or maybe a training opportunity here. Overall, it wasn't okay, but just okay. I wouldn't come back with so many other good options around this location and in general in St Louis.

    While on a Rt. 66 X-country Trip, we suffered a breakdown in our 1930 Ford. So we had to eat close to our hotel. Luckily we found this wonderful Italian restaurant. It is located just off the main street and the blended exterior is a bit deceiving. Inside it has a open and comfortable interior. The staff greeted us and we were promptly seated. Our server, Chanelle, was excellent. She was quick, attentive and took great care of us. I had the Chicken Carbonaro with shells and white sauce. Delicious. We ended up staying in the area due to car breakdown but this establishment made it a little easier to take. If you are cruising through Eureka on Rt. 66, check this place out.

    Well I want to start off with the service...it wasn't BAD, but it should've been better. I got refills and stuff but it wasn't very hospitable. No smiles. No "thank you" or any personality. As for the food, VERY bland. Tasted watered down. Honestly I think a jar of store bought sauce would taste better. It's especially disappointing because the price point is pretty high for such low quality food. My pasta con broccoli was $16.50. As for the atmosphere of the restaurant...it's not bad but again, just not worth it at all. Honestly we only came here because we didn't want to drive all the way to rich & Charlie's, but we will NOT be coming back.

    We always love Joe's and get take out from the Fenton location regularly. We ventured out to the Eureka location for a family birthday dinner and as usual were not disappointed. We always get the Joe's special pizza. It is so good!! We can get the same toppings from other places but it is not at all the same. I also love their chicken parm. It comes with a nice size side salad and a giant side of pasta. They put their meat sauce on the chicken Parmesan which is a nice change and is so tasty. Visit any of Joe's locations and I promise you won't be disappointed.

    Mint & Martini is a great lunch or dinner option in Wildwood, MO!…read more Their menu is primarily traditional Indian dishes but they also serve limited Italian and American inspired dishes as well. This is a delicious sit-down, full-service restaurant for Wildwood to have. We throughly enjoyed the Tandoori Chicken and the Paneer Tikka Masala. Both were flavorful and tasted very fresh and vibrant. Our server was attentive and friendly despite having other tables and assisting with takeout and answering phones. Mint & Martini has a full bar with an emphasis on allocated bourbon. The atmosphere is upscale with modern décor. The restaurant space itself is huge and can accommodate large reservations and parties easily. There's a very nice patio with an outdoor bar perfect for summertime and will be even better when the weather is less hot during Spring and Fall. We will continue to choose Mint & Martini for dinner out in West St. Louis County.

    We've been to a number of restaurants over the years that specialize in Indian cuisine. I had read…read moreabout Mint & Martini and added it to my list of places I want to go to. I made a reservation, but when we got there, it was so empty and toldwasn't necessary to have a reservation. We were there at 7:00 on a Saturday night and there were only eight other diners in the huge restaurant and I believe there were four outside. We were seated right away and then menus were brought over. They have an extensive cocktail/beverage menu and a separate food menu that was also rather large. We ordered our martinis and started on the food menu. We ended up ordering way too much food! I had the French Martini and do not recommend it. I had a Lemon Drop Martini after that and it was good. My husband had two Dirty Martinis and liked them. We started with the Samosa Chaat and it was good! It was actually the food we liked best. We ordered some Butter Naan but there was very little butter. We asked the server what his favorite entrees were and he mentioned one of the things I had been looking out, so I ordered it. Then he tells me one diner had complained that it was too chewy. I think he expected me to change my mind. I did not, but wish I had. I had the Lamb Roganjosh. The flavor was good, but the lamb was very chewy because it was full of fat. I have never had an Indian lamb dish that had lamb like that in it. My husband had Goat Bhutan Masala. He said it was okay. It did say it was bone-in goat, but the bones were tiny and hard to find until they were in his mouth. My husband had looked up their menu online and had seen fried jalapeños on it, but they weren't on the menu. They made some for him anyway and they were so hot, they were inedible. We were taken care of by three different people and they were all great! The space inside is huge and the patio probably doubles the seating they have inside. There were ten of us in the restaurant for a while and I think only six more came in before we left at 8:30. They are open from 11:00 AM until midnight. They have live music in Saturdays, but not the Saturday we were there. There are a some Indian restaurants in the area that we really like, so I don't think we'll be back.

I read about this place somewhere and added it to the list and we tried it tonight! The patio was empty. I'm guessing it was because it was near 100 degrees. The bar area was pretty full and the dining room was fairly busy when we got there, but we were greeted and seated right away. Our server was pretty new, but she was friendly and gave us some recommendations. The menu looked great so it took us a few minutes to make our choices. We started with drinks and I ordered the Blue Heeler which was nice and summery and refreshing. My husband ordered a beer. We decided to start with the Fried Lobster Bites. We each ordered a sandwich and we split them between the two of us. We got the Local House Burger and the Reuben. We chose fries for our sides. I know the Fried Lobster Bites are popular, but we're not fans. They were too salty, very heavily breaded and the lobster wasn't great. We won't get those again. Both the burger and the Reuben were really good! We ate the Reuben first because the bottom piece of bread was already getting a little soggy (not sure that I've ever had one that didn't get a little soggy). There was a lot of meat on it! The burger was good, but I was already full and only had a few bites. The fries were also very good! We'll definitely be going back!

They have a restaurant side and a sports bar side. My review is for the bar side because the dining half looked... subdued. They have tv's well positioned in the bar side and booths and tables. Go to watch the game, order any of the burgers, spend the extra buck to upgrade to the tots side, and enjoy. It's a nice relaxing way to get your sports and tavern food hit.
