O’Leary’s Restaurant

3828 S. Lindbergh Blvd

St. Louis, MO 63127           

O’Leary’s is up and running after it was damaged by a fire.  The newly renovated inside gives it a much more open feel.  This is a bar type atmosphere, but have a good variety on the menu.  The food is very good.  We got the lunch special and a Italian beef sandwich.  The Irish stew that came with the lunch special was the best thing we had.  It had beef, carrots, potatoes, and Guinness beer.  The Italian beef was a pretty big sandwich and was better than I expected.  Prices are around $7-9 for a sandwich and fries.  I recommend eating at O’Leary’s

Schottzie’s

Phone number:  314-842-7244

11428 Concord Village Ave

St. Louis, MO 63123

 

Shotzie’s is a small little bar situated between Lin Ferry and Lindbergh.  This place is always packed with people all day long.  This place is a local place that serves good food and cold beer.  This place has some of the best St. Louis style pizza around.  This sauce is sweet and it is very cheesy.  This place has a huge menu filled with all of the fried bar favorites, to home style foods like country fried steak and mashed potatoes.  This is a definite recommendation to go and get their pizza.  It might be the best in St. Louis.

One step into Schottzie's bar and grill and you will be smelling like smoke for the next three days. But don't let the smoke filled place scare you away. The inside is an open room with about 20 tables and a bar along one wall. Schottzie's has some of the best food in South County, MO. The menu is stacked with the usual bar food, and even some unexpected food that is not found in all bars. They have chicken fried steak, shrimp, meatloaf, and all kinds of other stuff. The best thing at Schottzies is the pizza. The pizza at Schotzie's is some of the best in St. Louis. The pizza has a good sweet sauce and has a crispy thin crust. Schottzie's is also a great place to drink and hang out for a few beers.

I went to Schottzie's for lunch and ordered the chicken fried steak sandwich, and a house salad. The best part of the house salad is that it comes with a hot, soft pretzel. The country fried steak sandwich could have been better but it was still good. It was not as good a Kenrick's steak sandwich, but it is still good. The salad was a good salad with a lot of cheese, and a hot soft pretzel. While the menu is full of sandwiches, dinners, and other bar food, the pizza is a must have at Schottzie's.

Prices: $4.75 for a sandwich, $1.75 for fries, $4.50, and $1.25 for an iced tea

Syberg’s Bar and Grill

Syberg’s has multiple restaurants and bars throuhgout the St. Louis area. Find one.

 

Syberg’s is a classic St. Louis establishment. They are famous for their chicken wings and wing sauce. They also have the famous shark chunks that are served at Syberg’s. I have never had them but I hear they are good. I have been to two Syberg’s. I have been to the one on Gravois in Affton, and the one by Westport. Both locations have the bar atmosphere. During the day Syberg’s is a nice restaurant and grill. And at night Syberg’s becomes a place where people gather to drink. At the Westport location on weekend nights there is live entertainment and the bar is packed with people. But at the Gravois location they play loud music over the speakers and the bar gets pretty packed with people. At the Gravois location they have a nice outside patio.

 

I ate lunch at the Gravois location. I got there at about 11:50 and there were plenty of places to sit. The menu at Syberg’s is huge. It has a ton of stuff on it. You have your choice between a ton of appetizers, sandwiches, burgers, pizza and more. I ordered the cajun chicken philly sandwich. This was a grilled chicken breast covered in cajun spices, peppers and onions. This was a very good sandwich. The spices on the chicken gave it a different taste, it was good. The sandwich also came with a side order of fries or home made chips. I ordered the chip and they were good as well.

 

Prices: $10.05 for a chicken philly, home made chips, and a drink

The Side Bar
1317 Washington Avenue
St. Louis, MO

The Side Bar on Washington was a borderline decision on whether I wanted to make it a Restaurant of the Day, or NOT the Restaurant of the Day.

The Side Bar is located on the newest hotspot in St. Louis, Washington Avenue. Why can't St. Louis appreciate old bars and restaurants. Every thing has to be new in St. Louis for people to like it. I went there for lunch with some co-workers. It was a nice day so we sat outside on the patio. It was nice but it was also kind of annoying because there were 18 wheelers driving by and it was loud. I did not go inside but, it looked like they had a bunch of bar tables set up where people could eat. The service was fine, except for one thing. When the waitress came over and asked if we would like this on separate checks we said yes. The waitress got an attitude and stormed off. I wanted to tell her that if you didn't want to split the bill then don't ask, dumbass. The food was expensive for a lunch. I don't think there was a sandwich on the menu for under $8. But, my food was good, this is why it is the restaurant of the day today.

I ordered the fish tacos from The Side Bar, and it came with a side salad. The fish tacos were little chunks of fish with rice grilled inside of a tortilla. It came with a side of lettuce, tomato, jalapeno peppers, salsa, and sour cream. The fish tacos were very good, but I can't think of a way to mess fish tacos up. The side salad was good as well, after I had to ask for more dressing because they barely put any on it. A co-worker I went with ordered the house salad with chicken on it, and she said the chicken was chewy. Another co-worker ordered the chicken parmesan sandwich and liked it very much. All in all, I think this would be a good place to go have lunch if you are in the Downtown St. Louis area and don't mind spending a little extra money.

Prices: Almost $9 with tax for an order of fish tacos and a side salad

Show-Me's - Multiple Locations

We went to the Show-Me's on the famous St. Louis Landing, because we were working at a place on Washington Ave. It was weird going to the landing, because I have not been there since my days of being under 21 and being 21, and I have not been there in a few years, except on drunken nights when some one gets a bright idea to take a cab to the President Casino. But, in that case we go to the President, try not to get kicked out and then go back to my friends resting place in Soulard.

Back to Show-Me's. The inside looked like a bar I would like to be in. It was smoky and looked like a bar. They had a row of tables and a row of booths for seating, and all of the tables were filled around noon. It was a kind of place that I would like to go with the wife, or friends and have a few drinks. But, the food was unexpectedly good, and cheap. Show-Me's has a lunch menu, and all of the sandwiches on there are under $6. They even come with fries or a salad. Show-Me's tries to copy off of the Hooter's outfits. But, the talent in Show-Me's is not as good as the talent in Hooter's. But, who cares, the food is much better, and much cheaper at Show-Me's

The food was good. I ordered the club sandwich. It was a roast beef, ham, and bacon sandwich, and it was a hot sandwich. It was very good and cheesy. I was feeling healthy so I ordered the salad as well. The salad was nothing special. It was just lettuce, and cheese. The dressing that comes with the salad is a pre-packaged ranch. But, the club was very good and I suggest checking out Show-Me's for lunch.

Prices: About $6 for a sandwich and fries or a salad

Seamus McDaniel's
1208 Tamm Ave
St. Louis, MO 63139

Seamus McDaniel's is a bar and grill located in the heart of Dogtown. Seamus McDaniel's is a pretty big place with three different rooms and an outside patio. We went for lunch around 11:45 and we were able to get a table, but by the time noon rolled around the place was packed. Seamus McDaniel's has all of the bar food favorites like the potato skins, nachos, burgers, sandwiches and plenty of other great food. Seamus McDaniel's is also a great place to hang out and drink some beer.

I ordered the philly sandwich. The philly sandwich was piled high with roast beef, peppers, onions, and cream cheese. The cream cheese makes the sandwich. I wish more places would put cream cheese on their philly. The sandwich was huge and it was on of the better philly sandwiches that I have had in a while. This thing was good. The sandwich came with a side of fries. All of the sandwiches at Seamus McDaniel's are huge. I definitly got my monies worth at Seamus McDaniel's. I would go back and order the same thing again. The sandwich was great.

Prices: $7.50 for a huge philly sandwich and fries.

Laclede Street Bar and Grill
3818 Laclede Ave
St. Louis, MO 63108
Phone Number: 314-531-1600

Laclede Street Bar and Grill is known to pack that place with St. Louis University college kids at night, but it is also a good place to grab lunch. Laclede Street is a typical Bar and Grill, that turns into a dance club at night, or at least it did when I was in college. We went there for lunch and the place was empty. There might have been four other people in the place the whole time. Laclede Street has a typical bar menu, but I really didn't look at it because they had a 10-inch pizza and salad special for $7.99.

I ordered the 10-inch pizza and salad. The salad was good, because of the dressing. The ranch dressing was peppery and very good. The pizza was a thin crust, St. Louis style, and that was good as well. It was filled with cheese and a topping, I picked bacon. This was a very good deal for $7.99. It looks like they have about four daily specials. All of them were reasonably priced.

Prices: $7.99 for a 10-inch pizza and a salad
