Restaurants near Museum of Westward Expansion

Our server, Matthew, was knowledgeable about the menu. He kept our evening at a relaxed pace, allowing us to enjoy each delicious course. Our steaks were done to perfection. The creamed spinach is amazing, as are the potatoes au gratin. We tried the white chocolate bread pudding at our server’s suggestion. It was a wonderful dessert to end our evening.

Second time we've come out to see Fred Bird for my oldest daughter's birthday. Allison has Down Syndrome and seeing Fredbird is always a treat for her. She is always treated with kindness and respect from everyone there. As an adult with special needs our table is always accommodating and Fred Bird always takes special time with not only her but our entire table. Thank you so much for making Ali's #24 birthday special.

I liked the place, but I expected it to be more fun.

Perfect spot to meet before a downtown St Louis event! It helped that we were staying in the hotel Union 30 is a part of. 😉

This weekend evening at dinner time when the local baseball game was on-going should have provided personalized and individualized care. However, with one bartender and one server (I so no food runner or assistants or managers either) the service was slow. When it happened, the server was marginal but the bartender, Toni, was absolutely fabulous! She not only made you feel welcome and appreciated, she made the BEST Paper Plane in the Universe! The mix of doos that we selected was well presented and tasty. The menu however is very small and Pennydrop is more of an upscale bar with a small bar menu as opposed to a full service restaurant with an amazing bar. When the baseball game finished and a crowd from the game flowed in, the service slowed even further and lines at the bar were much longer. With a few more staff members, the experience would have been maximized. Regardless of this, I will be back for my next Paper Plane before I head out of town.
