We weren't planning on going out last night, but the weather was too beautiful to stay home. We…read morewere actually around the corner at a brewery that was packed with small children and decided to look for a quieter spot where we could enjoy a cocktail and dinner. OpenTable showed a reservation available here, so we finally decided to give it a try--and we're so glad we did. Everything was fantastic. I started with the Green Turtle cocktail, made with Broker's Gin, cucumber, and basil, while my wife enjoyed a glass of Friulano. We opted to share several small plates, which turned out to be the perfect choice. We started with the Brussels sprouts and the goat cheese with bread, both excellent. I also had a cup of the chowder, which may have been my favorite thing of the entire meal. My wife ordered the nightly salad special with tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, and balsamic dressing, and it was fresh and delicious. We considered ordering the flatbread as well, but by the time we finished everything else, we were completely stuffed. The service was spot-on from start to finish, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and everything was very reasonably priced. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu.

We have never had a bad meal here! We went a week or so ago and realized we've been coming here…read moresince shortly after they opened. We're not regulars by any stretch of the imagination, but we've been here a number of times over the years. Sometimes it's just my husband and me, sometimes family members join us, and we've brought friends here as well. Nobody has ever not been happy they came here! We had a reservation and were greeted and seated right away. They have a big blackboard where they write the special drinks of the day, so I always have to check that out! They have small plates and entrees there. We almost always do all small plates. The exception is the shrimp and grits because we really like it! This time we did all small plates. The stuffed portabellini mushrooms were a newer menu item and they were SO good! I could have ordered more of those and been fine without anything else! Our next favorite was the oven baked goat cheese. We literally get it every time we come here and it's always delicious. Then we had the Nashville Chicken Sliders. They're good, but nothing super special. Our last item was the short rib street tacos. I'll just say we won't order them again. They weren't bad, but they were lacking in flavor. My cocktail was from the specials list. It was the Bitter Bonfire - made with mezcal - and it was so good! I think my husband had a Manhattan. We will, of course, be back again!

The concept is frustrating as well--you have to purchase a $25 wine card to access many of the wines, which often leaves you with an unused balance. It feels more like a hassle than a benefit. Tonight we ordered a wine flight and asked our server what wines were included. Her response was that she "thought" it was a Riesling, a white, and a red. At a wine bar, I would expect the staff to know exactly what wines are being served, especially in a curated flight. The atmosphere is great, but the service and menu execution don't match the setting. We gave it multiple chances, but unfortunately won't be returning.

Hard to believe it had been eight years since I last dined at Olive + Oak. During the summer of…read more2018, I was working in St. Louis and had several occasions to dine there. Since then, Olive + Oak has moved to its current location, which is spacious, airy and filled with light. And somehow, our experience last night was even better than what I remembered. I was having dinner with three friends I used to work with, and Abby, our server, was outstanding from start to finish. I arrived first and had a chance to chat with her before everyone else got there. Her energy and personality immediately stood out, and I knew she was going to be a hit with our group. Hard to believe she has been at Olive + Oak for only six months. She kept taking care of us throughout the evening. She really wanted us to try the grilled carrots, so she brought us an order on the house. Later, one of the managers stopped by with wine glasses and poured us some wine, also compliments of the restaurant. Those unexpected touches made an already great evening even more memorable. With four of us, we were able to explore quite a bit of the menu. We started with the Chicken Wings, Charred Octopus and Lion's Mane Steak. All three were distinctive and delicious. The Fried Green Tomato Salad was enormous, easily enough for all four of us to share, and packed with flavor. We learned it was leaving the menu after that night, so our timing was pretty good. For my entrée, I had the Grilled Flank Steak with crispy Parmesan potatoes, along with a side of Olive + Oak fries. Incredible. The fries were world-class, and Abby even tracked down some barbecue sauce for me to dunk them in. And those Grilled Carrots Abby insisted we try? Wow! Definitely one of the surprises of the night. We finished by sharing two new desserts, the Cloud Cake and Samoa Cookie Cake. Both were super delicious and a great way to end the meal. We ultimately spent more than three hours at Olive + Oak, and never once felt rushed. We were there to reconnect, tell stories and enjoy being together again. Great food certainly mattered, but the warm, attentive service made the evening even better. Eight years was way too long between visits. Olive + Oak remains my favorite St. Louis restaurant.

The menu, while it gives you an elevated American food vibe, it is approachable and non-pretensious at the same time. Complimentary bread, served in a cast iron dish has a consistency that reminds you of a cross between corn bread and yeast bread. A nice crisp outside and fluffy center. The T-Ravs had a bit of ricotta in the blend which gave it some creaminess. Not being overly hungry, I went with a Ceasar salad, Tater Tot Casserole and Brussel Sprouts. All of it delicious. Needed a bit more dressing on the salad, but the tater tots Casserole was stupendous! Such a comforting dish, too large to eat the whole thing, but delicious the next day. Service reminds you of being at any other 5 star restaurant, everyone was attentive, friendly and worked as a team. A wonderful experience!

My crab cakes (croquettes) tasted fine but the texture was mushy and wet. My husband had scallops served in a light Gruyère sauce--an interesting choice mixing cheese and fish. I had a spoonful of the sauce; it was lovely. The server said in winter they serve it over pasta which totally makes sense. We both tried the French onion soup having heard it was a must try. For both of us it was a miss. I love salty foods but even for me it was too much. Plus the soggy bread (croutons?) beneath the melted cheese was just unnecessary. Who wants pieces of bread that just falls apart floating in their soup? Is that a thing? My saumon à la moutarde was scrumptious! It had a nice crust and the mustard flavor was perfection! The side veggies of carrot, beans, and a piece of aubergine (zucchini) were fine, heavily buttered as expected. A side of gratin dauphinois was acceptable, but again, so heavily buttered and baked until the potatoes were between tender and mushy. The top layer had a chew, but not a satisfying contrast. We shared a crème brûlée for dessert and found it just okay, a great sugar coat on top, but the custard unremarkable. At the bottom of the ramekin, the custard had scalded. The server was polite, but he didn't ask if it was our first time there (it was) or offer to explain anything on the menu. He had great rapport with the tables adjacent to us, laughing and joking with them. I guess maybe they were regulars. Later, I joked to my husband that we failed to entertain our server. It was weird. Finally, they didn't acknowledge my birthday, which I'd noted on our reservation. The restaurant we went to for my husband's birthday made a point of celebrating discreetly and nicely.

Your steak arrives on a cart over an open flame, still sizzling and cooked to perfection exactly the way you ordered it. The ribeye cap is especially hard to pass up whenever you see it on the menu. Although the steaks receive much of the attention, Twisted Tree is far more than just a steakhouse. They offer several fish selections, along with pork, pasta, and chicken dishes, and everything is consistently well executed. I once enjoyed an outstanding scallop and risotto special, while also stealing a few bites of steak from my neighbor's plate. The endless house salad is so freaking good that you could honestly order it alone and leave full and happy. The house-made croutons are fantastic, and the two dressings are even better when combined together. Be sure to try the chipotle corn, which is truly unique and absolutely delicious. Most importantly, save room for the wedding cake. It's a must! I'm looking forward to my next visit.
