We found lots of choices on the menu and food came out hot and pretty fast, especially considering how busy they were. We are happy for the owner(s), as you can see how hard they worked to create a great menu and service crew. Well done!!

We don't like goat cheese so they were able to sub out the goat cheese polenta with cheesy grits. The cheesy grits were so good!! Bistro steak - good but it's not a must have for me. It came with asparagus that was tasty and potato pave. The potato pave was crispy but soft on the inside. For an appetizer we had the Spätzle dish featuring Emmenthaler fondue, nutmeg, and gremolata. It's almost like a Mac and cheese. It had Microgreens and nuts in it. The combination worked so well. It was unique and delicious. A great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary. They were very thoughtful!

I got an NA elderberry lemonade spritzer that was delicious and refreshing. I ordered the shrimp and grits (they were soooo good, buttery, rich, and flavorful) and a side of potato wedges to share. The potato wedges are GF!!! The one and only downside to the grits was that they stopped being creamy and was more polenta-cakey only a few minutes after it got to the table, but honestly, did not mind at all. The dining room is eclectic, like visiting someone's Spanish villa's reading room. Really enjoyed it and will be back to try other dishes!

Service was quick and friendly. I ordered the seasonal shakshouka slinger with chicken sausage, peppers, onions, potatoes, chimichurri, and two over-easy eggs. Unfortunately, it was just okay. The dish was a little too salty for my taste, the potatoes could have been crispier, and overall it lacked much depth of flavor. I'd probably order something else if I came back. There aren't many breakfast spots in downtown St. Louis, though, so if you're staying nearby, Rooster is still a convenient option with a welcoming atmosphere and solid service!

The Fleur-de-Lys is the epitome of a luxurious getaway. Whether it is the quaintly appointed guest…read morerooms or the delightful library and parlor, each area of this former residence is unique and meticulously maintained. While it is not likely the norm, the owners, Mark & Leslie, met us at the front door, quite literally inviting us into their establishment. It was simply the most welcoming manner in which to be introduced to this treasure and Leslie quickly engaged us with the history of the home and how she and Mark had recently become the owners. We chose this destination based upon the significance of the Fleur-de-lis to my love, a native New Orleanian. Given St. Louis' rich French heritage, the mansion was originally outfitted with four chimneys that feature the fleur-de-lis design and the pattern is repeated throughout the home. While we enjoyed a quiet morning coffee in the back of the property, a lovely shaded patio area, she noticed how many places the symbol was present. She actually made mention to Mark & Leslie that they could make an activity out of counting/finding all of the fleur-de-lis around the home. What a fun idea! We were fortunate enough to book the Tower Grove Park room, a spacious room fitted with a king-size bed and a two-person jacuzzi tub. There is even a 'fainting couch' for that extra French touch! The bed was amazingly comfortable and the decor and accoutrements were exceptional, right down to the pocket doors and writing desk. But a B&B is set apart by the fare served in the morning, and this is where Mark, a chef by trade, and Leslie, a self-taught baker, knock it out of the park. That morning's menu included a fruit starter, fresh juice, Leslie's home-baked sourdough toast and home-baked English muffins, and Mark's egg and sausage soufflés with country potatoes. The entire breakfast had us completely over the moon! We felt so at home that we wanted to clear our own place - so we did! The rates are competitive and well worth every moment spent here. There is parking behind the property, as well as across from the property, and each guest is allowed a unique security code so as to gain entry while you are enjoying your stay. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed this getaway, and Mark, Leslie, & assistant Sammy made us feel like family from the moment we crossed the threshold. We'll be back - and you should give Fleur-de-Lys a try!
