    Dined here at the recommendation of my good friend as we were on the search for fish Sandwich. Found It! Fish Sandwich add Cheese, sub side salad for fries and also an order of Potato Skins with Ranch. All of it was great! Pub food the right way and I'd certainly come back to try other menu items!

    Trashed Wings
    Steven B.

    They have a fabulous, Happy Hour and it's just not an hour. It's Monday - Friday 4PM-7PM, on Friday & Saturday it's also 10PM-12AM. Then Sunday it is, All Day. There's just one small catch, it's only available at the bar. Which is not problem for me, because that is typically where I sit. My recent visit, I enjoyed a couple of Vodka Sodas and an order of Trashed Wings. OMG! Those wings were super crispy, juicy and meaty. Next time, I'll add an order of fries with my wing. It's not on the HH menu, but it will still be a perfect side. The bartender was attentive and hustled to take care of all the guest seated at the bar. If you plan things right, this HH could be a cheap date or an inexpensive dinner.

    I've been going here forever and love it! You can't go wrong with their food. My favorite app is the Dunk the Veggies. Don't let the name fool you. It's mostly cheese. Their cheese sticks are enough for a family of four. And burgers are so tasty and plenty large! Inside in the winter is cozy and the patio is great in the summer. Fun place with great food!

    4pc Onion Ring

    We stopped in last night for a late-night dinner. We were able to snag a reasonable spot on the side street. As you walk through the main entrance, you walk right into the bar area and around the corner is the seating area for dinners. The bartender acknowledged us as we came in which was nice and seated us promptly. Our waitress Tina was very nice and stated we're known for our burgers, wings and something else I forgot. We ordered the double smash burger that came with extra cheese and bacon and a side of crinkle cut fries. For a place known for their burgers, the taste on the burger was highly disappointing. I expected waaay better. The bun on the burger was very off putting. It was not large enough for the burgers and toppings as well as it wasn't your typical burger bun, very dense and simply just didn't work. The fries were hot-n-fresh. We also ordered a 6pc wing which the wings were cooked as requested with a nice flavor. And a small onion ring which consisted of 4 exceptionally gigantic hot-n-fresh rings. The onion rings were literally just OK. They sell Seamus McDaniels merchandise at the end of the bar. The staff is pleasant but the food is lacking for bar food.

    Bleu Cheese Bacon Burger

    My husband and I came here for dinner last night. We were actually trying to go somewhere else but it was closed. My husband had been here before when he was in college so it was nostalgic for him. This place is a pretty typical bar on one side with a restaurant on the other side. We were seated quickly as the restaurant was pretty empty. The waitress was super friendly and helpful. I ordered an old fashioned, not the best drink but drinkable. My husband got a Manhattan and felt the same way. We both ordered the bacon and blue cheese burger. The burger was huge but delicious, had a good amount of toppings on it. The bar side of this place is pretty loud but the dining area was great! Only reason I am given a 4 instead of a 5 instead of 5, is the drinks. But def recommend the burgers.

    Had a little bit of time to kill between events that my friend and I were going to so we decided to stop here for a beer and an appetizer. They had fantastic appetizer specials. We decided to get the fried pepper jack cheese. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of it. It did come with 10 good size cheese sticks and one small container of marinara sauce. I would definitely ask for a extra sauce next time. This was a good deal at the happy hour price of $6 or $5 if you got more than one happy hour appetizer. They were very good and we will definitely be back. Looking at the menu for the dining area, all of the food looked delicious. There are several items that I want to come back and try. They had a decent size bar and restaurant but a huge patio if you're here and the weather is nice. Our waitress/bartender, was very attentive to us.

    I came on a Saturday night and was very happy this was the suggestion. I love Dogtown and Seamus is such a staple for it. My party arrived before me, and we were seated in the second room by the window. Lots of tvs to watch a game and a good vibe. Our sever was super welcoming and attentive, talkative, and interactive. We ordered a bucket of beers to start. I wasn't 100% sure what I wanted, but ended up going the greens route with the buffalo chicken salad with crispy chicken. We love ~balance~. Loved how there was provel on the salad (always a plus) and their sauce wasn't too spicy or overwhelming. The ranch was definitely good- tons of people rave about it! I personally prefer a bit thinner ranch, but it was for sure tasty. I'll definitely be returning to get the burger when the mood strikes because it looked delicious.

Service was great at both the counter and the table. I had the Split & Melt which was delicious. Crispy smash patties, gooey cheese, buttery bread. I also opted to add heirloom tomato to it which added a nice brightness to it. My mom ordered the double, which she said was amazing. We ordered a variety of sides to share. The mac and cheese was amazing, the onion rings were flavorful and crispy, and the fries were also very well seasoned and crispy. Overall, everything was a 10/10. Also, I loved that their fountain sodas are Excel sodas. Will definitely be back to try their draft beers and more burgers!

Price: All together, with a dollar tip, I paid $27 and change, which to me is incredibly pricey for counter service. $2 for a dipping sauce is steep, and for a small container. Next time? I'd skip the dipping sauce and homemade lemonade to save $7. I'll be back but not running to pay this much again. The storefront: the direct out front, small parking lot was packed and people were going into the gated lot to find parking. Only one person working the counter when you first walk in which lead to a long line at the dinner rush that seemed to be moving pretty slow. We got in before the rush and got our food quickly after. Staff were kind and very helpful! Fairly clean with the food runners circling tables often to remove trash.

The salad is generous, spring mix, red onion, tomato, croutons. It comes with shaved parmesan, but I ask them to leave that off. The champagne vinaigrette is perfect.

I'm disappointed that it took me so long to make my way here. They won me over with the tiny dedicated parking lot. At my big age, difficult parking situations are a turn off and I will go home if I can't get reasonable parking. I was able to snag a space in the lot and headed in. The space is a bit dark with rich sage, brass, and terracotta. There are several hanging plants making it an inviting place. The bar has plenty of comfortable seating and cozy tables if you decide to bring some friends. Caleb was our server during our visit. He was an absolute delight. He made excellent cocktail suggestions. He looked after our group without being overly doting. Just a gem of a human. We tried approximately 9 cocktails during our visit. Did I mention we were at brunch! I highly recommend the peach bite and the Side Car. Every cocktail is thoughtfully made and well executed. They offer a small brunch menu along with the regular menu. I usually always get chilaquiles when they are available. But today the ruby trout and grits sounded perfect. This dish was amazing!! The trout was thin with crispy skin. The grits were creamy and delicious. The dish is topped with a house made radish pico and salsa macha. We also ordered a breakfast sandwich that was paired with the crispiest breakfast potatoes I've ever had. The burger and fries are also a good option. The seasoning on the fries is next level. The brunch menu has a sticky toffee roll that is a perfect size for sharing or not. Salty sweet fork tender cinnamon roll. Lastly, the deviled eggs were a group favorite. I am a big fan of Passenger Chili Crisp. If you are unfamiliar please look them up! It's hands down the best chili crisp I've ever had. It's locally made here in STL and can also be found in several dishes at restaurants around town. The eggs were creamy with the right amount of tang from the mustard. The chili crisp made these deviled eggs easily top five best I've ever had! Planning to stop in again soon for happy hour with more friends

The bar itself is unpretentious and welcomes everyone. While I was dining at the bar, the rest of the diners were a widely diverse mixture. Witnessing such a vast mixture of people, adds a positive twist to the vibe of the bar. The menu is simple. They focus on what they do best and that's why their smash burger is one of the best. Being a firecracker myself, I ordered the Firecracker Smashburger. It's a single patty, with Pepper Jack Cheese, Tomato-Onion-Jalapeno Relish, Drizzled with a Tangy Fire Ranch and served on a Martin's Potato Roll. The burger was juicy and had those crispy edges that a smash burger is known for. My favorite cheese is Pepper Jack, so that was a big plus for me. The relish added that extra kick that made it a true, Firecracker. I can't enjoy a burger without fries and Jack offers long skinny fries. They had a crispy shell and a soft hot inside. They were simply seasoned with just the right amount of salt. I was impressed that the ketchup was 100% Natural. That gets a big thumbs up. When enjoying a burger and fries, a nice cold beer is always the adult beverage of choice. JN offers a small variety of craft beers on draft and three popular Anheuser-Busch products. I enjoyed a Gumballhead from 3 Floyds Brewing. An American Pale Wheat is a perfect lunchtime beer. The bartenders are personable and offer warm service. I'm definitely coming back the next time I crave a smashburger.

The worst aspect is the ventilation which needs much work. We came out smelling so greasy and smokey. We seated ourselves and waited a minute for our waitress to assist us.

She also didn't know how to make a drink, with that being the case why are you allowed to make any cocktails. If you have a limited cocktail menu but an extensive bar selection you would think their cocktail specials were on point. Nooooo. The BF tried a margarita special and it was awful. I tried a special crafted cocktail that was cool that our waitress asked the guy bartending to specially make because she had no clue about what I was talking about. I hate going to a spot where I make drinks better than the bartenders on hand and that's your job. The BF ordered the the garlic burger and I ordered the Korean wings which NEVER came out because our waitress forgot to order them. So I shared food with the BF. The burger was extremely underwhelming, not seasoned at all. How do you specialize in burgers and mess that up. The best item we ate was the fries and the comedy show was good. I love dinner and entertainment. We are burger enthusiast and if this what your restaurant specializes in I expect to be wowed. We saw all the social media hype surrounding this place and were so excited to try them. To find out it was ALL just hype is a real let down. No we will not be returning, the burgers and service speak for themselves.
