Not many places connected to it to eat at except for a small coffee shop, so we had to find places within a few blocks to walk to.

OMG OMG I will be back when in town if you are looking for a brunch that is unique and offers flare look no further. Parking is secure on a private lot. The Father's Day brunch included a menu to really enjoy. There were crab legs, steak, chicken wings, waffles, sausage, bacon, so many options the desserts added an extra touch poundcake red velvet cake. I wanted to eat everything unfortunately I had to practice moderation.

I attended a corporate event at the caramel room last night. The location was a little bit…read moredifficult to find, but once we got there and were parked in the private gated parking lot with two security guards, we were directed to the fourth floor event space. I agree with the other reviewers, the event space is really beautiful, modern, and well laid out. When you walk in off the elevator, you cross the dance floor and then the very long bar with plenty of high top cocktail tables, circular settees, and cute swings. Since this is an event space, there were no barstools at the actual bar, which is fine. The restrooms are also located at the end of the bar and the Women's restroom was modern and clean. We had four bartenders and they were all very sweet. The pours were not measured out in shot glasses, but they were nice pours. The cocktails were basic, such as margarita, whiskey sour, wines, etc. Our bartender did not know how to make a lemon drop martini. Entering the ballroom/dining area, you are struck by the sparkly, curtain chandeliers. They really are striking. I couldn't stop looking at them LOL!Our dinner was set up with large round tables of 10 seats each. The bread basket contained pretzel rolls and regular bread rolls and they were good, but nothing special. I loved the presentation of the butter which was a really pretty swirl. I ordered the scallops that came with sautéed spinach and I couldn't put my finger on what was mixed with the sautéed spinach but it was really good. The scallops were sitting in a light orange colored sauce and I don't know what that was either but it was delicious and the scallops were a bit small, but cooked very well. Others enjoyed their steaks with sautéed spinach & potato wedges. The chicken Parmesan was served with roasted broccoli and the huge chicken breast was so large, no one finished it. The broccoli was plain and dry and not very well received. Oh, I forgot to mention the salad which had apple chunks & crispy sweet potato haystacks on top - it was really delicious. For dessert our options were hibiscus mousse with a hibiscus macaron or a chocolate shell which was filled with whipped cream and strawberries. Both were super yummy! The wait staff had to encourage us all to leave the dining room after dinner to go back out to the bar area and the upstairs area so they could clear the tables. The upstairs area is just a long hallway with high top tables overlooking the floor below, and access to the rooftop with lounge seating, high tops & fire pits. There was a beautiful view of a suspension bridge, but I don't know the name of it. I spent the most of the evening on the rooftop since it was so nice outside and the DJ was super loud inside. I would recommend this venue. It's suited for very large parties and weddings, it's just really far from St. Peters. I would like to give kudos to the wait staff and bartenders, the service was excellent and everyone had big smiles on their faces. It was a fun night! I normally take tons of pictures but since this was a corporate event, I was too uncomfortable to do so. it was a struggle. I really really wanted to take photos of the food. LOL! Sorry!

The most entertaining hotel lobby…read more Once you climb the steps or walk off the tiny elevator you will be transported into the Grand Hall of Union Station. This lobby offers food, drinks, and a show! This is a great hotel for tourists, convention attendees, and folks in town for the moment. The food is not great as a standalone but have a drink or two and you will be glad you ordered the bite. There is also a light show that repeats regularly but it's a big hit during the winter holiday season. It's great for photoshoots with friends too. Not the most accessible as you will need assistance navigating it from the curb.

How even more awesome to find out that last call, at least on the weekend, is 12:30a. I happened to be at the hotel visiting a friend when I learned all this. So we politely hung out in the Lobby Bar area until almost 1a. Lol. Full bar and they offer a food menu (no food this visit). The space is large and open, offers a variety of seating options including various couch sections perfect for large groups. Being located near the soccer stadium, ferris wheel, aquarium and so forth, this serves as the perfect space to wrap up the evening.

Okay, let's stop the rant right there and turn this thing around: Next year, head to St. Joseph's Croatian Hall. Yes, it's a church. But Croatians wrote the book on breaking the rules of engagement. Slivo shots before mass, on the premises? Not unheard of. Slivo shots after mass? Standard. What I'm trying to say is... you won't be missing anything by making St. Jo's your MGHQ. The perks: - Free parking in lot if you get in by 9am (for the true warriors, indeed) - $5 cover gets you in/out privileges all day - Beer hall-style seating in the old hall and round tables in the new hall - Clean restrooms in both halls (short lines!) - An adorable (too young for me) DJ who'll play all your requests (Shake Your Tail Feather, anyone?) - $3 beer/$6 hurricanes/and unlimited I'm-sure-they're-cheap brandy shots - $6 turkey legs, $5 hamburgers and $1 warm + soft pretzels - Free battered and bruised love life empathy from old Croatian men who nod in understanding but don't understand a damn word you're saying (yes, I witnessed this) - If you end up *falling asleep* here, you're stumbling distance from either the 8am English mass or 10am Croatian mass Now if I could just wash away this stamp... 'til next year, St. Jo's! *Cash only.
