This place is so, so cool. My cousin took me out for dinner and I had never even heard of this…read morespot. Wow, it's such a beautiful and moody spot full of charm!! We had to wait 15 minutes for a booth but I didn't mind because this place serves LOOKS. The decor was awesome! Everything from the stellar service, crispy and lacey smash burgers and gorgeous dining room(s) made me realize why this spot is always recommended to me. We were very happy with our food and it was under $50 for two people! Check out Golden Hoosier, you won't regret it.

I had heard about this place and wanted to check it out! There were seven in our group and we went…read morefor an early dinner. We were greeted and seated right away. It was more than just a few minutes before a server came over. We ordered cocktails and then got serious about choosing our meals. We eventually decided and placed our orders. We got pretzel bites and cheese to start and it was fine. Then our food came out! I think most of us got burgers. I know someone got the fried chicken sandwich and said it was good. The smash burgers were good. About half of the fries were good and the rest were overcooked. The cocktails were good! Our service could have been a little better. Our server was somewhat efficient. She wasn't overly friendly or attentive. Maybe they were short staffed but I don't know. I just know that service was lacking. There are many things to look at on the walls! If you're into taxidermy, you'll love looking at We'll probably end up back there sometime.

Can we do six stars? I have nothing but good things to say about The Drawing Board! The staff is…read morestellar and the food is AMAZING--especially that Medart Burger, a dish with a rich (and kinda greasy) Saint Louis history. Sidewinder Fries are spiral-cut wedges that come with just enough seasoning. The falafel pita is a great vegetarian choice... seriously, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. There's always a nice selection of craft beers on tap for about $7/pour, as well as a smattering of AB products and other national brands in cans. Beer is wonderfully cold. The bar is well-stocked--especially with local spirits--and the bartenders here know their stuff, making drinks to order and advising what to try if you ask. I'm usually interested in trying a gin or bourbon I haven't had, and they're quick to make recommendations and talk about what's on the shelf. The Drawing Board has a nice-sized bar area with pool tables, darts, and chalkboards, as well as a cool patio. There's a small parking lot on the east (right side of the building), as well as ample street parking just west of the bar on Oak Hill.

It's on the smaller side, reminding me of places in my new home of SF, so anticipate seats/tables could fill up quickly. Parking is very limited, I got lucky to get a spot, so on a weekend evening I'd consider ride share otherwise you may be stuck parking blocks away. Beer was reasonably priced at $4-$5 for domestic. There was a group of people playing Magic The Gathering which was intriguing.

I'm not the best authority on coffee, but on the scale of Starbucks to Venetian cafe without a lick…read moreof English, the coffee here leans towards the latter. Decor is great, rustic brick with plenty of plants, pops of red on black with a classy black leather booth sitting area -- very cozy -- and a patio outside. I've seen reviews lambasting the smoke and some stating there's no smoke smell at all. My experience here is somewhere in the middle. If you've ever been out of country to a small local cafe, it adds to the atmosphere, but if a whiff of tobacco ruins the feel, be aware that some patrons do smoke on the patio, and the smell does drift inside. Service was very quick. I swung by because my fiber cut out at home and I wanted a place to game on a Sunday night. Don't know how relevant this is to anyone else, but the wifi here is great -- 180 MBPS and stable. Barista was very friendly and told me to get comfy with my setup. Owner peeked in to say "Oh we have a DJ!" Seems like a charismatic guy, he was out there entertaining the regulars for quite some time. Otherwise didn't bother me, which I appreciated. Over all a great local place. $8 gets you a quality drink and quality company if you're for that, and quality wifi if you're not. 10/10 introvert recommended, would come back even without my fiber going out.

It was not very busy and nobody was sitting in the back patio area. Our food was ready pretty quickly. It was an early dinner in the middle of a shift change, so it took a little longer than usual to get our check (I think our first server forgot). But we were able to go right up to the bar and settle the bill without any problem. It was quiet when we were there, but the extensive shot menu, big seating area, and games suggest they might have a busier party atmosphere on the weekends. The food was good for the price, exceeding expectations. The smash burger was pretty big- a single was enough for me! The burger was also well seasoned (the place *is* called Pepper's) and the edges were still crispy. Fries were great too!

They of course have many other choices to choose from on the menu. Tonight we dined in. Alex and her wonderful staff are courteous and professional. They make sure you enjoy your stay with them a pleasant one. I am writing this review about the specialty pizza., The Rueben pizza. It is a great tasting pizza with an awesome mouthfeel. Just like a Rueben sandwich. You taste all the Rueben ingredients with every bite. Even the saurkraut. I ordered an American brown ale that complimented this pizza perfectly. The atmosphere at JJ's is warm and friendly. You can even catch a game or 2 on their many screens around the dining area. They are well stocked with many beers and your favorite spirits. Mary our server was quick and friendly. If you have not been by Hamptons JJ Twigs get in there soon before the Rueben pizza is no longer available. I noticed they have added have a red hot ripples pizza too if you want some zing in your pizza. Stop in to see Alex and the crew. You ill not be disappointed.
