The BF and I have stopped in a few times after church on Sunday. The food is definitely hit-n-miss…read more The fried chicken, greens and mac-n-cheese is always a solid choice, haven't missed yet. We love the seasoning and skin on the fried chicken, it's perfect!!! The chicken is cooked well, tender and moist but yet still fried hard which we love to ensure the chicken is done. A huge disappointment was the beef ribs and rice pilaf, both lacking seasoning and substantial flavor. Yes, the beef ribs are fall of the bone but they are tasteless and over-priced for the quality. The corn bread is good. Another disappointing dish is the smothered pork chops. The porkchops do not stand up to the massive amount of gravy they are sitting in. It renders the porkchop lifeless and soggy and the gravy isn't seasoned to add insult to injury. The turn over is good, so it ensures the food is coming out hot-n-fresh, the staff do a good job at keeping the trays filled. It's worth a try to check out soul food in the STL

Fantastic fine dining. Great service too!…read more Enjoyed steak and wine. Definitely a great place in Soulard.

Great customer service and good ambiance…read more Blueberry cheesecake - so good! Save room for this! I liked that it wasn't overly dense. Pork osso bucco- highly recommend. 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!

A group of 4 of us had breakfast here. We were happy they were open on a Tuesday morning because…read moremany places are not. It is easy to pass by the place because biggest sign on building is for donut shop that previously occupied the space. We were the only people in dining there for most of the time. The waiter was nice but a little different too. He was happy to answer questions and share his thoughts on menu items. In fact he actually hung out at our table a little too long- we wanted to get on with our conversations. Ha. Anyway I had the avocado toast with an egg on top- it was huge order. And very good. They sprinkle crunchy mix on top of the avocado- seeds mostly and lettuce under it - a great combo of texture and flavor esp with a creamy green sauce with it. I tasted my friends Milque Toast and it was very good but definitely sweet. Think bread pudding.

The presentation of the food was definitely beautiful and very aesthetically pleasing. I ordered…read morethe avocado toast, which had quite a lot going on in terms of ingredients and flavors. It was interesting and visually impressive, although I would say the taste may not be everyone's cup of tea. The Norwegian pancakes were also beautifully presented. They looked very much like crêpes and, to me, tasted very similar to crêpes as well. The coffee was probably one of the more interesting parts of the experience. It was made with Indonesian coffee and green Indonesian spices that gave it a unique color and appearance that reminded me a little of matcha. Definitely something different to try. I initially ordered bacon and eggs, but unfortunately they were out of bacon. What surprised me was that there really wasn't another side available to substitute for it, so I ended up choosing something completely different. I also asked about sampling something before ordering and learned that they do not offer samples. Overall, this is a very visually appealing and unique dining experience with some interesting flavor combinations. I think it's a great place for someone who enjoys trying something a little different, but some of the flavors and menu options may not appeal to everyone.

Host was super friendly, got us seated and let us know Charlotte would be our server. She is great, we have had her before and she is friendly and efficient! New menu has some new options and a lot of returning favorites. We ordered our usual loaded fries as an appetizer. I got the 1/2 smoked chicken with mac and cheese (still the only place I will order mac and cheese!) As the evening progressed the place filled up so glad we go there early. Appetizer and entrees were great, as usual. Charlotte was great! Host was great, nothing but great things to say!

Love the buttery and fluffy interior while the exterior had a nice crisp crust. Really provides excellent textural contrast when eating the sandwich. The hash brown was super on point as well.

You can tell their biscuits are always freshly baked, and they don't immediately crumble apart, which makes them great for sammies. Highly recommend their umami hashbrowns to complete your meal. Wish the pickup times on their online ordering were more accurate- sometimes it seems the food has been sitting for awhile despite the website not even showing our meal as "ready to pickup" yet.

Soulard location has gone down hill…read more Long over 1 hour waits until you get sat and started ordering on Sunday nights. Dirty tables and floors. They are always out of potatoes by 6:30pm. Rolls are cold and butter even more so. Give you plastic cups of water until new cups are cleaned. No silverware until you ask. Cramped seating next to all parties making it hard for guests and servers to get around. Plus food is not worth the price anymore. READY FOR A MAKEOVER! Accessibility note: not at all accessible. Not for children. Cannot get a wheelchair inside.

Later I did see other guests arrive that were not fancy either, so I felt better. You could be fancy and fit right in, though. Angela was my server at the bar and she was top notch! Giving me time to review the menu but also jumping in to answer questions. I wanted to try a drink and the cocktails look amazing so I will have to come back to try a couple, they had a list of Spirit Free and I went with the Stappi Spritz. It was bright and refreshing with a bit of bitter and I really enjoyed it. So many food options looked good, I took a bit to decide and then went with the Starter of Oeufs et Mayo and would go from there. When it arrived I felt it looked like a dish on a cooking competition show - it was so pretty. Angela indicated a great way to eat it was to get a scoop of everything and put it on the LF grilled bread and that is what I did! So very good! All the flavors went well together, the burst of salty goodness from the trout roe and the grilled bread, fantastic. Even with so many other Plates to try, I will have a hard time not ordering those jammy eggs again. Extras included Crispy Fingerling Potatoes fried with rosemary and served with romesco aioli, they were good and a large enough serving to share. The rosemary is definitely part of the dish but I ordered with the knowledge that I now like rosemary. I also wanted to try the Sage and Fennel Sausage, they were in patty form and the order came with 2 and they were large. It was decent, I wanted more sage and fennel for my taste. Angela set me up with go boxes so I could enjoy my meal again as leftovers! Great food, great service. Can't wait to go back again!

We ordered five small plates and all were very nicely executed. -scallops: While these were good, they were my least favorite of the bunch. They were tender and the sauce was nice, but they were a tad small only came with three. For the price, I thought other dishes were more hearty. -mussels: They were cooked perfectly and had a savory broth that was great to dip the grilled bread in. -Royal trumpet mushrooms: These were recommended by our server and they were great. The combo of the rich soubise with the vinaigrette gave them a good flavor punch. -short ribs: We both loved the sweet and spicy sauce on the short ribs. The short ribs were thinly sliced and tender. Very tasty. -Cavatelli: This was the standout dish of the night for us. The handmade pasta and summer vegetables were so fresh and had such great flavor. Basically summer in a bowl and a generous portion size. We are both big eaters and 5 small plates felt like a good amount with no leftovers to take home. I will say the tables inside are very close together. So much so that I felt like I was in our neighbor's conversation and it was difficult to hear our own conversation. We did have a lovely evening at Little Fox and we would return for a date night or special occasion.

It was decorated all out for the Olympics and they have several comfy couch areas which were perfect for us with our toddler who does not want to sit still... We spent a few hours here and had some appetizers and drinks. We had the pub pretzel, pickle chips, fried cheese and soup. All were out quickly and very good. The pretzel was SO good! Served with mustard and warm cheese for dipping and it's huge. Service was friendly and fast. Bathrooms are spacious and new and clean with a nice large stall for baby changing. It wasn't crowded in the middle of a day on Friday so, pleasant to watch the game with a small group. I'm sure it can get really busy and rowdy during sports events downtown. All in all, new and comfy and a place I can see us coming often.

The bacon, chicken ranch wrap was good enough, and the fries were devoured. The bartender probably spoke six words to us during our three hours there. The sporting events they displayed were really weird for us, the NBA Hall of Fame show, women's golf, preseason football. I'm sure it's way more fun during a soccer match but for a regular Friday night, it definitely wouldn't be someplace that we'd go back to..
