Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Mehlville

Perennial is perennially AWESOME!!!!! I have lived in Webster Groves for 25 years and among all of Webster's diverse and excellent restaurants, Perennial is my favorite!!!! It fits me and my palate like a glove!!!

Wow, I wish I could give this place 10 stars. My boyfriend and I were visiting St. Louis for the weekend and we were recommended to come here. To say we loved it feels like an understatement. I had asked to be seated in a quieter section and they happily accommodated. The ambience was perfection: jazz and dim lighting…music wasn’t too loud. Our server Zach, gave us great menu recommendations. We ordered the French onion soup to share as our appetizer and it was incredible. We got the chicken dish and braised beef…absolutely phenomenal. For dessert, we had a hard time deciding between the chocolate mousse and the cream puffs. The kitchen gifted us the cream puffs (absolute angels). Also, the espresso martini was the best I’ve ever had. Overall, 11/10 experience. I’ll be dreaming of the desert for a while. Thank you to the kind hostess and server and staff who all made us feel so special and taken care of!

Excellent dinner. Ordered the Halibut. I would not order the poached pear salad again though. It had no flavor and pecans were burnt. The halibut made up for the interesting poached pear salad. My husband had the spicy shrimp pasta special. He said it was great, bursting with flavor except they left the tails on shrimp. He had to pick through and take tails off with every bite that included shrimp.

My husband and I have been to multiple nice steakhouses in the area, and this one has been our favorite thus far. The service was friendly and quick, and the steak was cooked to perfection. Perfect for a date night or special occasion, but the menu had a decent amount of less expensive options as well. Will definitely be returning in the future.

Always wonderful, lots of customers. That's understandable because the food is awesome!!
