Review from Ryan F.

I went here recently because a friend wanted to watching skating (I know...) and the only place I could think of in the area that might play this was this specific st. Louis! After all they play a lot of sports and isn't skating a sport??
Well turns out that it was the wrong day for skating but a great day to find a neat little gem in this area.
I'm going to agree with some of the other reviewers on food. The wings are wings. Everyone has their preference on the type of wings they like but my preferences favour st. Louis wings in terms of meatiness (I don't think they are scrawny or too meaty (no growth hormones or turkey wings for me thank you).
This time I had the rib and wing platter and a couple pints of keiths. The food was alright and hit the spot. I am an addict for their sauce...it's normally served with the fries but I literally dip everything edible into it.
What made this visit a good one and made me a fan and probable repeat customer was the owner, jimmy! On entering it just happened that he was the person we flagged down. With the other sports activities on, we didn't want to take a tv that someone else might want to watch (and I was embarrassed I won't lie). Jimmy was awesome...he got us in an area where we could watch a specific tv, and because it was a relatively empty space he gave us freedom to pick the perfect viewing seats. He even gave us the tv remote to find the skating (we settled on football once my friend realized she had the wrong date). In staying there it was interesting to see Jimmy engage all the patrons as he did his rounds.
I think my only real complaint was that it did seem either understaffed or because we were in a separate space they didn't frequent us as much to check in on us (the staff I mean).
I often forget that even these franchises have owners who are working to make a living and make something of themselves. I am a firm believer that it is these entrepreneurs that will bring us put of a recessionary time period and was definitely proud and happy to see the owner so engaged on a Friday night, supporting his staff and appreciating his customers.
While st. Louis has the standard menu and decor, this time around the people really made the difference.
Will I be returning again, and soon? A definite yes, thanks to jimmy.Listed in: 30 days..tik tok

I conducted a seminar, followed by some one-on-ones this morning by the airport.
I had lunch at St. Louis, which wasn't too far away. I love St. Louis' wings and hadn't had them in a while.
This location is in a weird cold strip mall on Dixon, a bit of a long drive off the road.
The patio was big and sunny ... there were a few people catching some rays.
It's a cavernous restaurant with lots of space. I sat in the bar area.
I love their wings and have never ordered anything else. I got a pound of hot wings and fries along with a Diet Coke. There were only seven wings but they were a good size.
Lunch was good as was the service (the bartender took care of me). -

We had a good time watching the hockey game & wrestling while we tried the sampler plate and drank cold beer in chilled glasses & it was all super reasonable.

Reliable place for decent, but not fabulous, wings, ribs, and beer. Order the wing lunch special - suicide hot (trust me it won't hurt you) and a pint of Stella.
The wings are definitely the best thing on the menu but could really be much meatier (pour on the growth hormones ;-) The ribs are ok but a bit bland and way too sweet and gooey for my taste. Beer selection is quite weak - domestic basics and Stella (yay!). -

Had the wings, mild, they were great. Beer was cold, lots of choices of sporting events to watch. Server was friendly and a pleasure to talk to.
