Looks are definitely deceiving. This restaurant needs help. Walked in and was greeted with a smiling face and welcoming host. She seated us at our table (we had a reservation) table was a mess underneath no one sweet up after whoever was sitting there, table was sticky, they weren't busy at all so not sure what took so long for our hostess to show up. When she showed up the young lady was nice and smiling. She took our orders and gave us a few tips on what was poplar and what wasn't which was nice and appreciated. While waiting for our drinks to come before food we observed several around us sending back their food constantly. The table next to us had burnt waffles in which I know the hostess saw that they were and she should have addressed that before brining out to the table. We finally received our drinks and tasted nothing like a margarita. It was suppose to be watermelon. It's kinda hard to mess up a margarita I thought but perhaps it was cheap liquor? I'm not sure but it was definitely a no go. Finally received our food I ordered the stacker w/bacon, egg on the side scrambled with cheese in them. The picture on the menu has fruit on top of this sandwich and when asked our hostess if this was French toast she stated yes w/fruit. We it arrived with some white thick sauce (looked like white gravy) on it and regular toast. The egg was not scrambled had no cheese. My friends had the fish and fries. The toast came out with in seconds behind it. The young man that delivered the food I'm sure if he was training or the cook. This presentation was horrible and a compete NO. We told the waitress than you but it was unacceptable and had left. They definitely have work to do. This much be a brunch place poplar amongst the younger adults and they at okay, with that because they must have a dj at times of something. Music playing was nice and not overly loud good selection there is about all I can say. The menu does not reflect what you get, online does not reflect this venue.THUMBS DOWN read more

I saw they completed some renovations and knew I had to go see for myself. I love the changes they made. It was not warm enough to sit on the patio but I plan to go back to do so. I was looking forward to hearing music while I ate brunch. It took awhile for the DJ to get it going but once it did everything felt right. Last I remembered they had good food and thankfully they still do! I ordered the southern entree that came with catfish filet sliced, toasts, 2 eggs, and grits. I was able to substitute shrimp and grits for the grits for a $4.99 up charge. Our server was amazing and did not rush us to order. She was very pleasant and I wish I remembered her name. read more

Great service Nice atmosphere, upbeat, live DJ, ample seating, good decor for photo opps! Nice and friendly staff! Food was decent like I'd eat before going and order something light. I had the seafood nachos and it was watery super runny. They changed it out for lemon pepper wings that looked like they plucked the wings off newborn chicks. I promise my thumbs are bigger and meatier than the wings. The lemon pepper seasoning was powdery like onion powder or something. My boyfriend ate his food said it was good. The bottomless mimosas were good I had to add a shot of vodka to mines but it was tasty. Definitely a place for the younger crowd but would go back when in town. read more

The vibes are so good! The decor is so cute and aesthetic. It's a very big space so you don't feel crowded. We had the seafood nachos, and the bottomless mimosas. They weren't as strong as I was expecting mainly just tasted like juice. I had to drink about a few to even feel a buzz. The service was nice and helpful. read more

Decided to celebrate my 30th here, I always heard they had good brunch food. So first off I reserved a vip section or what I thought was going to be a vip section. I paid $280 for literally a table and a bench that barely fit 5 people so I was a bit disappointed, I wish they would put pictures of what your paying for on the website as I had never been there before. I definitely wouldn't have paid $280 for that and just sat at a regular table. It did come with a bottle so I guess that's what I paid for... The food was really good. I ordered the southern. It was catfish, eggs, and grits. It was really good and everyone was pretty satisfied with their food. We also ordered the bottomless mimosas which was per person, I was kinda of surprised by that. After brunch ended after 2pm the day party started and we had a great time. The servers were great as well. read more

This was my second time visiting the Marquee. The food was great and the bottomless Mimosas option was appreciated. I ordered the Catfish, grits and eggs and enjoyed that. My bf got a custom omelette and he said it was good. The vibe at Marquee was great, love a black owned spot with great music and a helpful staff. read more

Brunch was pretty good! I went with a rather safe choice with the chicken and waffles, and I was pleased with my decision. The chicken was seasoned well and fried just right, but the wings were a little tiny. If I ever visit again, I'll order extra wings! I wanted the full brunch experience, so I ordered the Strawberry Lemonade Mimosa. I could have gone without it! My waitress was so sweet and did her best to make sure I had everything I needed for a good experience. The restaurant was well lit, and the modern decor made it the perfect place for cute brunch photos. read more

Super surprised that I was able to get seated right away on a busy Sunday. I tried the salmon & lobster pasta and it was amazing. Creamy and flavorful just like I like. We also tried a appetizer and that was good. Did I mention they also have bottomless mimosas . If you are looking for a good brunch The Marquee definitely won't disappoint read more

This place is HUGEEE. I was so shocked and pleasantly surprised to see how spacious and well decorated this place is. I went on a Saturday morning and they had a DJ setting the vibes. Now for the food itself, I was not impressed. I had the Brunch salad and it was similar to the pre made salads at the grocery store. I ordered fries as well and they accidentally brought me two, but they were both different sizes. The menu only had one $3 fries side, so not sure if the bigger serving was correct or not. The drinks that my friends had they really did enjoy! I heard that Sunday's is the day to brunch there. They also turn the space into a club at night! This is a place to catch a vibe, not necessarily a good meal. read more

A time was had at the Marquee and I did not get home until 3.....pm. This is my favorite hip hop STL brunch spot. We had the chicken and waffles. I love the sweet and spicy wings. The wings were small and you don't have to ask them to fry it hard. They know how to fry chicken. We also ordered the lobster salmon mac. It wasn't what I expected. They use Penne pasta instead of macaroni. I was a little thrown off but after two mimosa cocktails, I made it make sense. The service was stellar and the DJ was playing all my songs. I can't wait until they open the patio!!! read more

Sunday brunch Supposed to open at 11a. We get there at 10:55a and there is a line waiting. Doors don't open til 11:09. We get in at 11:15. Waitress didn't take long to come over and offer us water and we ordered bottomless mimosas. Mimosas took a while. Other folks got their food before we got mimosas and the opportunity to place our food order. No big deal Ordered steak and egg skillet. Supposed to come with steak, egg, potatoes, and cherry tomatoes. Ordered steak medium and stressed to the server I'd prefer the meat to be undercooked than over cooked. My cousin ordered Cajun pasta and liked it. Steak was overdone. No cherry tomatoes. Told server no cherry tomatoes. Server says shes never seen it served with tomatoes but would ask kitchen. Don't know if server ever did that but it wasn't brought back to my attention. I did enjoy the meal however it's the principle which is why it's like where my ish at that I ordered?! Place is cold. Bring a sweater or shawl if you're on the colder side like I am Music is bomb. Dj is doing the damn thing although I'm not sure there is an actual dj, may jus be a damn mp3 The employees are attractive, that's a plus Womens bathroom has an attendant inside which depends on who you are if you like that. I don't. I want to piss in peace Vibe is nice. Black folks galore with a sprinkle of Becky which is to be expected I'd come back for sure. This place is nice read more

This review consists of my entire experience, with guest, at this establishment from only my second time dining in- which was completely different. Natalie was the name of our server (if that's really their real name I don't even trust if that's accurate). First the service, 10 minutes had went by before someone brought us drinks, or set the table. We wanted Hookah and there was even confusion with that order the waitress told us $40 and they accept cash/cash app. It took a minute before she put the order in, so one of my friends asked the bartender who told us it's now cash only and $35. That was just a complete mess. Then everything came all at once, the hookah, drinks , and food. I don't know how we were expected or suppose to enjoy anything because we weren't able to enjoy the hookah that Natalie felt the need to share the only reason the owner sells hookah is because by popular demand. That comes to my next problem. My usual order is shrimp and grits, I had them once but this second time looked like complete SLOP was thrown on my plate. After two bites, I asked one of the bus boys if they changed the recipe, and he responded "yes". It was completely nasty, and I asked for a substitution (chicken & waffles) but Natalie told me she had to ask her supervisor for approval.- Weird. One of my friends ordered the $20/person bottomless mimosas- only to be given orange juice for her second order. We were given our checks before even asking for the checks. Ultimately there was a complete gap of experience from the moment we sat down, to the food, and to the service. Natalie periodically checked in to see how we were doing. I did not feel comfortable nor welcomed just due to appearance. My group felt rushed from the moment we ordered. From my second experience there is a glass mirror target audience/look when going to the restaurant. If you are wearing more laid back (joggers, T-shirt, flip flops) and not "looking the part" it would be best to just order your food to go. read more

Food was ok nothing to write home about. Service was good. Ambiance was the best. The drinks were good.

My friends and I just love coming to The Marquee. We have came for brunch, and lunch and the food is always really good and we always have a great time. It's also a very dope vibe in there and the music is always jammin'. For brunch, I highly recommend you getting there as early as possible because it does get packed very quickly. You honestly can't go wrong with anything that you choose on their brunch menu. Their Lobster Rockefeller is made with creamy pesto pasta, lemon garlic aioli, & topped with parmesan cheese. Ya'll..it was so bomb! The Chicken & Waffles at the Marquee are also really good. You can choose from a red velvet or a buttermilk waffle and you can also choose what flavor you want on your wings. I chose the sweet and spicy wings with my buttermilk waffle and it was a very tasty combination. The Southern (not pictured) is also a brunch favorite of mine. Their catfish sliders (also not pictured) on their dinner menu are also really good. I can't tell you how many times that I've ordered them. lol The service here is always great too so if you haven't been to The Marquee yet, you should definitely check them out. read more

I love the vibe and how this place looks on the inside. It's definitely a vibe. A friend recommended this spot for brunch. I will say the only reason they are getting 3 stars is because the unlimited mimosas taste like water. I recommend just buying the bottle for $25 and pouring juice yourself. They pre-mix the champagne with juice and to me it makes the champagne flat just sitting like that. Also my shrimp and grits were not good at all. The grits had no flavor. They put the shrimp and sausage on top with this sauce which made it a little better but not much. The grits need flavor cause they literally just boiling it in water and sending it out. The wings were the best thing I had. I would probably give them another chance just because our waiter Alexxa was the BEST! I have to tell the truth she was so sweet and patient. I really liked her. The vibe was good and the music. If you have high blood pressure order the shrimp and grits your pressure won't go up because there is no salt added. read more

The service was HORRIBLE! We waited more than 45 mins for mimosas! The food was less than mediocre. My grits were hard and stiff and the little catfish fingers were over cooked.

I came to this place upon arriving to St. Louis by looking at the reviews. Walked in the inside and was expressed by the decor. The bartender was great and served great drinks. The food was hot and good. I would have gave this business 5 stars but the food was late. I mean it was 40 minutes late. They made the experience good even with being late. I will return again. read more

The waitresses are so sweet, patient and understanding! Our waitress Charlene was very friendly and accommodating with my party. We had a party of 7 for a birthday. We came right at 11 so there wasn't a wait. She worked hard and kept checking in on us, talking to us, trying to figure out how to help us! Love her! My party kept getting bottomless mimosas and shots after shots! The bartender made me a decent Bloody Mary and the olives were good. The hot sauce has a good kick to it. The hostesses were nice and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The manager came and checked on us. Everyone was working hard. This was surprising because I'm used to it being a club but it's definitely a restaurant. I love the music the vibe and the ambiance. Every place is great for a picture. Folks loved the salmon lobster Mac and cheese, the cat fish was good, the biscuits were great, the potatoes didn't seem fresh, the chicken wings were ok. They had the chicken and waffles that were good. The French toast was good. The grits were ok. This is definitely a place to come if you want to come kick it and eat and drink during the day for a great brunch party vibe! read more

Cool vibe and music, service was slow and food takes quite a while. I'm vegan, so I asked the waitress about the potatoes. She told me several times not to order them because they bland. We decided that I could get the grits and veggies; SO WHY WAS I CHARGED FOR SHRIMP AND GRITS. Grits are $3 so why was I charged $11 for 3 spoons of veggies. I wasn't in the mood to make it a situation because I was at a birthday celebration but I'm annoyed af. read more

I've heard they have good brunch but never been able to try it. This is generally considered a club by many and it's pretty spacious. They play popular trap/rap music only, with a 'DJ' announcing/speaking randomly into the mic. They do have a person in the bathroom handing you towels and offering cologne, etc for tips so be aware of that. I like the setup and I've never had a bad time here at all. Don't expect to find much if any craft beer here, if that's what your preference is when it comes to beer. read more

Recently attended the Marquee's "Brunch after Dark" starting at 5pm. We had a friday girl's night and it was a fun experience with a dope vibe. The music-UNMATCHED. It was serving 90s-2000s hip hop and rnb... perfect aesthetic. Now the food was pretty good. Highly recommend the catfish from the catfish and grits. I wasn't a fan of the grits as they seemed to lack flavor, but the catfish was seasoned for the gawds! The lobster was a bit over cooked but the pasta it laid upon was fantastic. Also, their steak scramble was amazing! Definitely get the bottomless mimosas. They have a couple of flavors, like pineapple and peach... and they are full of champagne so you will definitely enjoy your night after a carafe or several. We did have a small issue with our food order but the manager came over and rectified the issue promptly and professionally. I know in the past the Marquee hasn't been known for good service but I think they are truly making a change for the better! read more

I didn't get a chance to eat here, but I've heard that the food is good. It's pretty spacious and reasonably priced for sections. The music was mostly current hip hop/trap and the announcer kept the vibe for the majority of the night. Now, when we got our section it was still dirty with the leftover items from the people who occupied prior to us. I had to essentially chase down the hostess to get someone to clean the area for us. When they came they did sanitize it; unfortunately, our waitress wasn't the best, but I'll chalk it up to it being late and she was possibly tired. I doubt I'd visit STL again, but on the off chance I do, I may check out the marquee again because of the ratings involving food. read more

Man I have never been to a branch like this! I will say the bottomless mimosas were on point! The food was also really tasty. It was really loud in there so don't plan on a quiet brunch.

Wonderful location inside, ample parking for a $20 fee. Major sports bar vibes, hella TVs, bar has a wide selection, good music and decent food. The pasta is very bland with heavy oregano. Chicken and waffles, chicken was flavorless. The seafood nachos were hearty and tasty. The catfish, both sliders and nuggets were wonderful. There was a French fry inside my nachos. A single shot of well drinks is $10. The service was subpar, security guard flirting with bar tender, automatic gratuity is undue. Very close to Lumiere casino. Pandemic closing time is 11pm. read more

I will go easy on this place because it's new and I've noticed with some new restaurants, it takes a while to run smoothly. Highlights and downfalls: The ambiance is really nice. But the DJ played the same loop of songs for the two hours I was there. I realized I'd sang a song already, and then I'd hear it again. Over time, I know the workers will grow tired of the music, so I'm sure that will be improved quickly. (Pandora and Spotify are really inexpensive options:). The mojito was really good. A bit sweet at first but the second was made stronger/to perfection. The California quesadilla was a nice touch because it wasn't your typical quesadilla. My server didn't know exactly what was in it, so she told me two items that weren't in it and completely missed the correct ingredients. But I still enjoyed it and thankfully wasn't allergic to anything inside. It was a bit awkward being seated because the hostess didn't know if she was supposed to seat Happy Hour guests AND didn't tell me which areas were considered Happy Hour. So when I finally sat down, I assumed I'd sat myself in an area that wasn't for HH since it took over 10 minutes for someone to even come to my table. Then it took another 40 minutes to receive food. As friends arrived, it took over 30 minutes for them to get food. And the way the servers hounded us for our plates made us believe they'd run out of dish-ware in the back. My quesadilla maker creates wonderful meals in less than 3 minutes, so I know that didn't take 40 minutes so waiting for clean plates is the only answer I have. The atmosphere is very nice inside and parking is available in the lot - always a plus. I'm not sure I'd give it another chance, but others should at least try it once and hopefully can have a better review than mine. read more
