    "Absence makes the heart grow fonder... (or in this case the stomach grow hungrier!)"…read more I've done Sauce on the Side before, as they delivered calzones to the office and we did staff lunch using them (at least back when I was on that part of the staff) and they were as I recall "agonizingly delicious" calzones. So, I figured, I've got to do it again, this time to make sure my memory was clear and correct. And since one of their more recent locations was right by my office.. AND i had just got paid. Why not, right? Anyway, we're going to keep this one kinda short and sweet, since I didn't do a dine in, but rather another grab and go... (yet, again I forgot the foodie pictures! what's wrong with me? I remember to get buildings and backgrounds and forget the important part!) Small smokehouse salad and the monthly special for August. Gyros style Calzone! (yes, only one special runs for a whole month, so when Sept 1st rolls around, the Gyros are gone!). Now I'm going to say plain and simple the food was as good as I remember (I think before I became a Yelpie foodie person, it was "always Chicken Doodle" calzones. I got in a comfort zone, but with my obligations to be as entertaining as possible (at least I hope these are), I had to go for the monthly special for something different... So see Yelpsters: Variety makes you a better food critic. NO more same ol' same ol' or me anymore either. Risk take I will! (remember to read that last line in a Yoda accent, makes it work better (I Hope)!) As for the restaurant of SOTS itself, it's reasonably spacious, three TV's and a little bit of artwork for the walls.. Just the perfect lunch time from work, or afterwork dinner spot or a quick meal. The waitress you could tell was ready to get out of there for the night, but she tried with a smile (so "thumbs up" to her) Anyway, I will say the calzones and salads were as good as I remember them, but surprisingly I will say .. they're not as big as I remember? I just used to remember the calzones delivered to the office felt larger while these, as well packed as they are, didn't seem as big. But that's my _only_ complaint with any SOTS calzone, because they are stuffed to the 'rafters' with the contents and the salads look and feel about what i remember. (so no punishment for the 'feeling' of small.). Serving time was about 13 minutes, but that never bothers me much anymore, being a patient "old man". I got all the time in the world to savor the good things in life. And SOTS Calzone's _are_ one of those good things in life and while the "fonder" wasn't what I recall, this is still one of the best lunch / dinner stops for anyone in the area. And that's saying something, since I've got a few more Creve Coeur locations I have to start preparing a memory trip for!

    This restaurant serves the best calzones! The dough has a tremendous amount of flavor, and the…read morefillings enhances the tremendous flavor. The sauce is served on the side (hence the restaurant name), and the sauce has a very bold and spicy flavor. The staff (Jenny is incredible, she is so friendly and helpful) are superb. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    I don't understand why I didn't use you earlier. You are lessening our carbon footprint, cheaper…read morethan the other food delivery services, and my Sushi came cold with a modified way of tracking my order. They will notify you when your order is received by the restaurant, when it is ready, when your pedaler is there for pick up, and when it is in route. I wish it was more accurate like Uber, but it gets the job done. Honestly, if you live in the Loop, CWE, Midtown, Downtown, and even Clayton. Use Food Pedalers to delivery your food on bikes. I honestly don't know how they would do it with very very large orders, but they have group catering online. The only thing I would note is they have some great restaurants in their porfolio, but not everything yet. Loop: United Provisions, Pi, Three Kings, Rannoush and some others that don't deliver Clayton is on break for the summer. This seems weird to me, but I'm sure it's because they are working on increasing their market share. Things to be wary of: The app sometimes is a little off. I tried to pre-order even in a close window and it often boots me out. In addition, the menu online is not the same menu for the same restaurants often. It's more limited. Anyways - glad to have this local service around for around $3.99 a delivery and you can tip your pedaler if you want online.

    My journey to NASCAR wings started with an empty belly and a Google search for "wings nearby". What…read morea random name but the website looked put together and the pictures looked good. I liked their selection of wing flavors, I chose the Cajun and Sweet Chili and an order of fries. The flavors seem like a safe choice for trying a new place but the fries in the initial picture looked liked the thickness and cut that I liked (though they had both crinkle and standard fries in different pictures). Anyway, did I mention NASCAR wings is really just the kitchen in Brio on Lindbergh? And it was either pick-up or delivery. I did my online order and gave them my money I just hoped that someone would know what I was talking about when I got there. The hostess at Brio fortunately did. I had to wait a couple minutes for my fries but it was mostly a smooth transaction. The food. It was great, the Cajun wings were dry rub and was Cajun-ish. My mom loved them and had the rest. I think I'm not a dry rub person. The Sweet Chili was my favorite though, the perfect amount of spice and sweet. I'd definitely get them again. Ok the fries...definitely not the fries in the picture on the website but ok fries. Like a step-up from shoestring fries. My Dad said they were a bit salty. If you don't care about the cut and types of fries you get, you should be fine.

    Location was difficult to find. They should really tell you the restaurant name to enter. No where…read morewill you see signage for NASCAR Wings......but the food was amazing- we would definitely order again now that we know how to find it.

    Dear Patrick, I'm unable to respond directly to your comment so I'll leave it here…read more We were instructed to put together boxes labeled by table number with decorations and directions/pictures on how we wanted them. We were told the decorations would be put on the tables by your team and the tear down/set up of the room would be taken care of by Russo's staff. That may not be what is on the written contract but it is 100% what my fiance and I were told. Which is why we put together boxes and a binder to be organized and helpful. I have never spoken to you so I'm not sure how you know what was discussed with us and what was not. I stated above the communication prior to our wedding day was horrendous and it was very hard to get questions answered. Maybe if communication had been better any confusion on expectations could have been cleared up. Aside from that, if you had properly read my review you would have comprehended that my complaint was not with the fact that your staff didn't set out the decorations, but with the fact they didn't communicate that they weren't going to until 10 minutes before the reception started. As I stated above my mother showed them the boxes, decorations and binder before the cocktail hour started and the staff member agreed with my mother that they would set it out. If it wasn't in the contract and they weren't planning on doing that then that was the opportunity to let that be known. However, they waited until 10 minutes before and that made us run 40 minutes behind schedule. To address your comment that the outside bar closed and the inside one opened... how were my guests supposed to get to the inside bar while they were at the outdoor cocktail hour? They could not enter because my mother and bridal party were setting up the inside of the building. Therefore my guests were outside with a closed bar while the bartender was at an empty inside bar for 40 minutes.

    They have great food! They stay so busy it's hard to patronize them. Pasta is excellent.read more
