Everyone I've interacted with has been friendly, and while I can't speak to the speed during their busy times (I've always come on off hours) I always got my order quickly. The restaurant is part of a strip mall with savers and there's plenty of parking (at least during non-peak hours). I've been following the truck Norris saga since their closure and reopening and I wish them lots of success!

I had been looking forward to visiting 9 Mile Garden for quite some time and had the opportunity to…read moreattend a private event there. On the plus side, there is plenty of free parking in front in two large lots. There is lots of seating in the garden and outdoor games available, plus plenty of space for the food trucks. It is dog friendly (pickup bags provided). There is a large movie screen that is easy to see and hear when they play movies. On the other hand, I was confused about the name "9 Mile Garden" since the outdoor part of this is small. It's not even half a mile long. I thought, based on the name, that it would be a larger entertainment area. It isn't, and the surrounding businesses include a large smoke shop and a Dollar Tree. There was a gravel hill between the garden area and the Canteen indoor bar area that was slippery in the rain (why no convenient stairs?). The bathrooms are rustic, similar to what you might find at a hiking trail head.

Review for 9 Mile Garden I visited 9 Mile Garden today to…read moreenjoy the live band. Upon arrival, I was informed by staff that I could not bring my personal tumbler, which contained protein water. The policy prohibits outside beverages, including water, regardless of whether they are sold on-site. I have allergies to many of the items available at the venue and was hoping to enjoy my day while staying hydrated with my own clean water. I use a metal container specifically to avoid microplastics, fluoride, and unnecessary chemical exposure common in many bottled or plastic alternatives. The manager explained that outside tumblers are not permitted because other guests might do the same. However, I observed the manager himself carrying and using his own personal tumbler filled with a beverage brought from home (not purchased on-site). This created an unfortunate perception of inconsistency in policy enforcement. For health-conscious individuals, those with dietary restrictions or allergies, or anyone preferring to avoid plastic and chemical-laden beverages, this policy may present a challenge. I would recommend considering this before visiting if maintaining control over your hydration and personal wellness choices is important to you.

The space, while small is cozy and comfortable. The team is friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain the different dishes to me and helped me make fantastic selections. I am a novice when it comes to most African cuisine. I am slowly learning and expanding my palate in new directions. The food is traditional home cooking with wholesome ingredients and incredible flavor. The bar is set very high for any jollof rice I have going forward.

It is a Trojan horse for one of the best burgers in St. Louis (my wife says I'm being dramatic for calling it THE best; I say I am not NOT going back for another). We enjoyed everything we order: the pork belly burnt ends and cashew chicken wings, and a coffee & cardamom old fashioned that sounds like a personality disorder but tastes like a vibe, smoky, a touch sweet, and very drinkable year-round. The Sam Elliott burger, BBQ sauce, bacon, crunchy onions, brioche, is named for a man who has never disappointed anyone, and neither does the sandwich. And the meatloaf is NOT your grandma's brick: tender, charred at the edges, laid over silky mashed potatoes with broccolini, perhaps closer to a chop steak than a loaf in the best possible way. Vibe is farm-chic: old church pews, repurposed interior doors, a proper bar up front, plus a patio and rooftop for when the weather cooperates. Fun fact -- it's named after the blue duck Billy Madison paints in elementary school, which is a fantastic piece of trivia and tells you absolutely nothing accurate about the actual restaurant. 4.7 Stars. Picking Nits: the counter-order setup is efficient, but it sets expectations in the wrong direction for the first 90 seconds, you brace for fast-casual and instead get something considerably more ambitious. Food comes out fast once you've ordered, which is great if you're hungry and slightly jarring if you wanted a slow, lingering dinner. And the Billy Madison naming is charming trivia but entirely misleading as a vibe preview, no complaints about the actual restaurant, just the branding expectations it sets. If The Blue Duck were a character: Ron Swanson. Hear me out. If Ron ate here, he'd be suspicious of the entire experience until his first bite of protein -- the counter ordering, the repurposed doors, a burger named after a fellow mustachioed American, all of it registering as potentially too clever. Then the Sam Elliott hits his plate, he takes one bite, and the skepticism dissolves into the quiet respect of a man who has found his people. Looks rustic. Has strong feelings about meat. Secretly sophisticated -- plays saxophone in a jazz club under a fake name, builds his own furniture, would 100% approve of the farm-chic decor once the protein has spoken. Presents as simple. Isn't.
