Large windows facing Lockwood make for a bright and open space. The king burger with cheese fries was good. Also has a few sidewalk tables. Don't forget dessert! Probably tip: best chocolate shake in town!

Place decor is cool! Very good theming. Portion sizes are HUGE so definitely worth coming if you’re hungry. The food itself was pretty average, but tasted fine. Very greasy in general. Service was good and attentive enough. I recommend the king burger! The onion rings are just alright, as is the parlor dog.

First time to the new Parkmoor. Use to go the original. The food, service and inviting atmosphere did not disappoint. We will be back. My son got the chicken and waffles. Still don’t know how they got that chicken so crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. That’s right! I said it. Moist! I hate that word but that chicken was so good it’s got me saying it. And I’m pretty sure those pretzel bites were donuts masquerading as pretzels.

We were really looking forward to this restaurant. It was mid afternoon so not busy at all. Excited to try the burger and onion rings. A few bites in to a juicy, nice tasting hamburger and bam... A long hair. Gross as I tried to remove it - it had hamburger hanging from it. I had to spit the rest out and just ate the onion rings. I told the (long haired) waiter about it, he did apologize. The bill came - no adjustment. We just paid and left not wanting to make a scene but I really think they should've at least given me a discount for not being able to finish my burger. I don't think we'll be back.

A friend and I decided to meet at the Parkmoor for lunch on a weekday. It was fairly busy but we were seated quickly. The staff was especially friendly from the hostess to the server. The menu is pretty basic but plenty of comfort food options. We decided to try the fried bologna sandwich just for kicks, along with a black and blue burger and onion rings, all of which we shared. The burger was fine, no complaints. The onion rings were quite greasy and didn’t seem to have onions in them sometimes. I wonder if they are some prepared product. Although it is supposed to be popular as per the server, the fried bologna sandwich was very greasy and just did not sit well in my stomach, and I have a pretty strong stomach. Would I go there again? Possibly. But I would try some of the other items on the menu, and only because I live in Webster Groves and want to support local businesses.

Excellent food! The fried bologna sandwich is the best in St. Louis! It’s sandwiched between two grill cheese sandwiches. 🙌👏❤️ Amazing place to eat. The sauces are also delicious. I love the onion rings and Parkmoor sauce! Highly recommend this gem in Webster Groves!

Decided to try somewhere new and came across this restaurant.  Good atmosphere and friendly staff.  The food was good.  The fried bologna sandwich was a real treat! It’s sandwiched between two grill cheese sandwiches.  The onion rings and Parkmoor sauce were great.  Highly recommend this gem in Webster Groves!

The onion rings are amazing. I came here just for the onion rings and I was not disappointed. The chicken and waffles was pretty good. I think the pieces could have been a little less dry but it was still very tasty with all the sauce. It comes with a spicy BBQ and a syrup. The dining area is kind of tacky but I don't know what I would change about it. The service was good but seemed a little distracted or out of practice. We did come during a slow hour so maybe it wasn't the regular wait staff.

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. I looked up orange spots and this was one of the ones that came up so I was like let's give it a try. Upon entering it kind of gave me like bougie steak 'n Shake vibes and I noticed that they had signs that they were known for their burgers so of course we gave the brunch burgers a try. The brunch menu was not huge, but they had a few different things. The service was not bad, but they did start to get packed after we were there for a while and I think it was too much for the few people that they had working. My waitress was getting ran around a lot and we were being patient because I know how we can get when a restaurant picks up . So for the most part service was good until we were ready to go and then it took a while for us to be able to pay and get out. For my drink, I tried the breakfast margarita which was OK, but I didn't really taste the margarita portion. The burger itself was cooked to perfection, but did not have much seasoning and the onion rings, I only ate one because they were way too greasy for my taste. Now the fries were excellent. Though I wasn't thoroughly impressed with the food. I would still be willing to give them another. Try to try some other things.

Stopped in at the Parkmoor for lunch as I was craving a burger and knowing it was Burger Week, I decided to try their King Burger. I got the King Burger as it comes, with EVERYTHING on it, WOW, it was wonderful! I also had fries (you could have had onion rings) they were crispy and delightful! The Parkmoor is cute and nostalgic looking inside, we actually ate outside as the weather was nice and they had really nice seating outside. They also have really good milkshakes, though that didn't quite make the pictures.... The service was wonderful, very attentive and super helpful with all my questions about the menu items...Check out the Parkmoor, you won't be disappointed, a cute, nostalgic diner!

My family had a great Sunday lunch at the Parkmoor. We enjoyed our meal at the communal high top so we could catch a game on the TVs behind the bar. I enjoyed the Crispy Chick, made spicy with their buffalo sauce. The sandwich was huge! The Buffalo sauce was the perfect heat. The fries were okay, but lacked some flavor. Service was good, but it would've been great to have a little more attention to drink refills. Overall the Parkmoor is a solid, family-friendly spot in an awesome Webster Groves dining scene.

The parkmour is a lot more laid back than the name infers. It's a very casual diner great for families with kids who might be loud. We got gumbo, onion rings, and a burger. They might have had a staffing problem that day because the wait to be seated was long despite it not being crowded. The gumbo was not good, but the burger was above average, and the onion rings were the best I've ever had and you have to make sure to try them. So stick to the typical diner foods and you won't be disappointed.

First time here and wasn't sure what to expect. They have a to go window when you first walk in for purchase of beverages which was a good idea . They are kid friendly and also have a full bar. I had the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and fries, the sandwich was excellent, the meat was seasoned perfectly and had plenty of toppings served with crispy fries. Husband had the Single and said it was almost as he remembered from his younger days and was absolutely delicious however the onion rings were terrible, they tasted like grease and were cold.

This is a really fun spot in Webster! It's kid friendly and has a variety of options for apps, meals, drinks, and desserts. The decor has an athletic vibe which is really cool. We came during burger week, their double cheeseburger was the one being featured for the special ($8- pretty good deal!). I started out with a glass of wine. We didn't order any appetizers, but we did order two meals to split. I ordered the wings and my mom ordered the burger. She also ordered a side of onion rings. Our server was super nice and helpful. Definitely good service! Wings came out and were a good size! They come with the sauce poured on-top rather than tossed in. I prefer my wings a bit more crispy than this- but they were good and definitely good quality. I really enjoyed the sauce. The burger was super good! Smash patty style which is a delicious type. The bun is on the thicker side, but fluffy and fresh. We had a good experience! I'd like to come back and try some more items here :)

This was the perfect spot for a quick lunch date! The vibes here were so cute and cozy! The food and drinks were amazing! I got the giant chili dog, PERFECT! The mimosas were perfect, We had to keep getting more! The servers here were very sweet and patient with us. They were very quick with their work. The food came out quickly and so did the drinks.

It was so refreshing that we had the most delightful server on our visit to The Parkmoor, which was the icing on the cake to the 4 stars. I don't remember her name, but it was lunch time, and she was wearing space buns in her hair. The decor is charming and funky, and the whole place was super clean. The pretzel bites were scrumptious, onion rings were very different in a good way, but the burgers were underwhelming in flavor. I will also say very costly for a diner/burger joint. Would come back to try other items.

We came in for a visit a while back and I think I might have ordered the wrong thing, so I waited for another visit to write my review. I decided my first visit was not a great representation of the restaurant's potential. Finally, we visited again, and I ordered a proper burger with all the fixings with a side of onion rings. They serve the onion rings with some sort of an aoli sauce which was delicious. My burger was fantastic! A notable improvement from my last visit. My husband ordered a burger and a bowl of chili. He let me try the chili and wow! It was excellent. Their menu did note that their chili has won a chili competition, and I can see why. It was rich and flavorful, and the serving was enough for 2 people! Service was wonderful. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly and made sure we had refills on our drinks. I am definitely looking forward to coming back here again should the burger hunger strike again!

Tonight was our first time at this establishment. We were almost immediately greeted and seated in a comfy booth. We ordered the Buffalo Queso Toasted Ravioli for a starter. My husband ordered a fried bologna sandwich and was surprised at how big it was. Fried bologna stuffed between two grilled cheese. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and was surprised to see it was perfectly cooked and not greasy. Sadly the toasted ravioli were not what we expected. We got toasted empty shells. Our server immediately apologized and took them off our bill. He then brought another plate, which again were empty shells. He explained that while they make the stuffing, they're stuffed elsewhere. Good try buddy, it was appreciated. We will definitely go back and try again.

Great visit to The Parkmoor today. Food and service were great. Addition of the breakfast menu was a definite plus and nice surprise. Breakfast potatoes are fantastic- perfect combination of crispy and smooth, and shaved Parmesan set it off. Biscuits and gravy and omelette were also excellent. My son commented that his chicken fried steak and gravy were the best that he's had. Nice work Parkmoor. We'll be back soon and often!

Chili dog and fries was huge. The chili on its own was excellent. Would definitely order that again too. We had boozy snow cones which were a mess to eat, but good. Really sweet but it is a snow cone! Server was excellent, she even comped an item my friend didn't love. It was quiet when we got there, but picked up in activity by the time we left. Good for kids too!

This is a nice small hidden gem. The service was great. I was greeted immediately with a nice. I placed my order. I forgot to get a picture. I order again to get a picture. The desserts were nice. I want to go back and try some food. I got a spiked lemon and Tito's, blue raspberry and dreamsicle and pineapple .

Wasn't sure what to expect, but this really knocked my socks off! The cleanest most updated diner possible, with bright lights and a welcoming atmosphere! Our server was friendly, laid Back, and very quick! My friend and I each got different burgers and fries and minutes later each plate had been completely cleaned. It's like steak and shake only much better in every way!

I gave it a try and meant a group of friends at The Parkmoor. Hoping that it would be like the old one. I ordered the Mushroom swiss burger and a side of onion rings. The onion rings totally rocked. The tempura type of coating was yummy and they were not at all greasy. They were huge and I came home with leftovers. Now the burger what a huge disappointment. It was served on a stale bun. I had to send it back because it was dry and fell apart when I picked it up. YUCK. They were quick to change out the bun. I was disappointed in the burger which had very little flavor. I then had to have a snow cone patriotic colors at the end. That was good. My friend got the meatloaf and it looked really good. Maybe next time.

Wow. I was surprised at how good this was. I remembered the old Parkmoor and this is a great tribute to that restaurant. When we walked in we were greeted an immediately sat down. It was early and I am sure they get busy. Our waitress Amy was great - she was super nice, kept on top of refiling drinks and recommended some great items. For starters our group order onion rings and chicken wings. The chicken wings were spicy. The onion rings were great and reminded me of the old Parkmoor. For dinner I got the Bacon Cheeseburger and it was juicy and cooked perfectly for a smash burger. I tried a sip of someone chocolate shake and it was good. I didn't order a mixed drink but was glad they had it as an offering. The ambience is very nice and clean. I highly recommend this place as one of the best diners in St. Louis.

It's nice to have The Parkmoor back. Good food and nostalgia for the "old Parkmoor". This time around however, they've added authentic New Orleans snowballs made with a real NOLA hand-cranked Southern Snow machine just like Hansen's Sno-bliz. Very tasty food and great service.

Our family frequents the Parkmoor for its reliably delicious food, quick service, and amazing servers. I usually get the gumbo (highly recommend!!), but I changed it up tonight and got the turkey club melt and WOW! It is packed with flavor and the guacamole takes it to the next level. I love when my kids want the grilled cheese (kids menu) because it's the perfect amount of cheesy goodness on the perfectly buttered and grilled bread, and I usually get a few bites in!

Decades ago the Parkmoor on Big Bend and Clayton was my high school hangout. I have been anxious to return to this recreation and get an order of their onion rings. Imagine my disappointment when we had extremely poor service (I had to get up and ask if someone would wait on us), and a small mediocre burger. The onion rings order was small and similar to the ones I used to get back in the day, but definitely not the same. (But the chocolate shake was very good.) Talking to the owner was no use. He listened politely, but made no effort to do anything to make up for my experience.

Chicken and waffles. Yummy. Chicken was seasoned just right. Waffles were fluffy. Side of maple syrup and barbecue sauce. Very good and huge portions

I tell you we went for the kingcake milkshake and stayed for the food. The Buffalo Queso Toasted Ravioli are so good. That bacon burger was amazing. This is handicap accessible and the staff is so friendly and kind. This is a great place for date nights or a good meal with family! The booth in the front is a great photo op! Cant wait until we return.

A group of 4 of us came for dinner. Upon arrival there was plenty of seating on a Tuesday evening at 6:30. Waitstaff was attentive and helpful in ordering. The menu is not geared toward low calorie so know that ahead of time - it's a diner. We had an appetizer of pretzel bites. The cheese sauce was great and made the dish. The same sauce goes on the mac and cheese and I preferred it as a dip. I had the single cheeseburger with side of Mac and cheese. It was fine but did not stand out or make me want to return. Friends loved their fried bologna sandwich, grilled cheese and club.

I remember going to The Parkmoor in Clayton with my mom as a kid. I'm a sucker for nostalgia and my visit here took me back. Katie is so friendly and took excellent care of us. We tried the buffalo chicken toasted ravioli. Red hot ripplet seasoning is my kryptonite! I enjoyed super grilled cheese sandwich with onion rings. The rings were crispy and the best beer batter. The grilled cheese was phenomenal. It comes with caramelized onions which elevated a grilled cheese sandwich to next level. Not to mention the pimento cheese!!! We enjoyed boozy sno cones in a variety of flavors. Hands down definitely a must visit from the friendliness of the team to the delicious food and the dose of childhood nostalgia. p.s. try the cheese sauce with your fries!!

My friend wanted to find a place to dine outdoors for lunch so since Parkmoor was on my shortlist of places to try we went there. Thankfully we got a spot under the umbrella in the shade. Flies were abundant but I guess that comes with being outside right?. We were quickly approached by our server and I honestly could not decide what I wanted to eat because everything sounded really good. I asked our waiter what he recommended and he suggested the Shrimp Po Boy. I was eyeballing that as an option so I went ahead with it. My friend got the chicken sandwich and we both got fries as our side. I was surprised at how fast the food came out, but thankful as I was on a lunch break. Everything was hot and fresh and looked delicious. I was very pleased with my choice. The shrimp was really good and tasty. I was hoping a few more pieces would be hiding amongst the sauce and lettuce since I couldn't eat all of the bread. Our waiter Mason was great. Perfect amount of check-ins, very knowledgeable about the menu and a great attitude. I'm really happy I tried this place and I'll definitely be back to try the menu.

Amy was our server--cheerful, enthusiatic, and informative. She made our shakes (malts) and they were good. The onion rings are homemade and pretty good. The Parlor dog had a good presentation and was well received. However, three of us ordered the meatball sandwich. Oops. Nice bun, giant sandwich with several meatballs. The meatballs seemed to be pureed meat which made them more mushy and the marinara was tasteless. Instead of a rich red color it was diluted with cream. On two of the sandwiches they were served with the cheese still in the slice form instead of melted. I learned that the meatballs and sauce are refrigerated and pre-portioned. We surrendered after eating some of the sandwich. Here's the good news. My feedback to our server did not reach a dead end there. Instead, she called Frank (the owner). She then related to me that he did not want anyone to leave hungry and that we should choose something else from the menu AND he instructed we receive a credit on our bill. You will not find a restaurant that doesn't have a problem item or a bad day. What makes the difference is how they respond. Kudos to Parkmoor.

Well, now. We have been on a brunch kick lately trying to venture out from the regular breakfast options. We have been here for lunch before with a fairly good experience, so we decided to give brunch a try. The place is very cute and nostalgic. The waitress was very nice and helpful. I got the country fried steak with sausage gravy, and he got the 3-little pigs omelet. Hmmm... My dish reminded me of being a young kid and eating a beef patty (same as a bag of chicken patties but beef flavored). The only difference is that someone tried to dress it up with sausage gravy and told me it was country fried steak. As a patron of this establishment, or any restaurant for that matter, I felt very disrespected to be served this dish. Initially, I was not terribly offended by the taste because it was familiar, but as I thought about it, is this something I would make an effort to get dressed, choose from the many restaurant options, make the effort to drive here, and eat this? NO. Really? The omelet was alright and seemed to be a safe choice. I will probably not be back for brunch, but we might try the lunch again. We will see ...

Great diner/drive-in food for us, as fits the "Parkmoor Drive-In" name and vibe. Pretzel bites with cheese app is very popular and a worthy start. We were actually brought these by accident, so they were gratis. Our app was the 12 piece onion rings. It's a huge order for two, which we didn't realize until we were plowing through it. Our waitress, Amy B, asked if we wanted the 6 piece size (which is the side order size)...we should have taken her up on it. But they rings were delicious. The onions were heavily battered so that they were almost like savory cake donut batter, but I really liked it. And the onions were so tender that they broke off easily with every bite - no accidentally pulling out the entire onion here. Our burgers were also great. My King burger was only $1.50 over the wife's single, but had two patties. Either way, delicious - juicy, flavorful, just good. And a final shout to Amy B again. She was a delight as our waitress.

A great addition to Webster Groves! Nice to have a place for the entire family and not feel like you are dragging the kids to a bar! Bahaha We ordered curbside and at the end of the call she asked if we wanted utensils or Ketchup. It's the little things that set places apart (and they were all in the bag)! Food was ready when we arrived and brought out quickly. Service was super friendly. The food was great. Hot. Fresh. Delicious. Hummm, was the food a tad bit pricey?? Yes, it was. But, was it worth it? Yeppppppp it was! Burgers were smash Steak 'n Shake style! Fries were greaaat as were the onion rings. Onion rings had that awesome CRUNCH factor, maybe a tad bit too much batter but really can you have too much?! Kids meals were a nice addition and the bustiers came with fries, cheese only .50 extra. Can't wait to go back and try their SnoBalls on a hot day!

I have been wanting to try the Parkmoor and stopped by over the weekend to pick up carry out. The styling of the restaurant is really cute and looks really family friendly. There is a snow cone and shake window when you walk in that I'm definitely going to need to order from this summer. They were really busy and no one was at the host station but I only had to wait a few minutes before being assisted. My food was ready right on time and I love how they packaged my chicken and waffles separately so they wouldn't get soggy on the way home. The dish came with both syrup and a spicy sauce which were delicious. I'll definitely be back with the family to dine in next time!

Chicken and waffles and chili cheese dog. Fries taste the same as McDonald's so I was definitely a fan. Award winning chili and it tasted like it. Everything was so good.

This was my first time visiting The Parkmoor. I've wanted to try it for some time now. And since it's St Louis Burger Week, this is a great opportunity to check it out and try the Kingburger! Well, I was not disappointed. Aptly named, The Kingburger has two yummy patties with shredded lettuce, tomato, pickles, grilled onions, American cheese, and something called Parkmoor Sauce. ok, let's be real here.....this sauce is something special indeed. There's nothing better than a Juicy burger that falls apart in my hands near the end. No need to add anything extra....although to be honest, I did dip burger in a bit of yellow mustard because that's just how I roll. I also opted for the green beans as a side choice......not your ordinary green beans. These were southern style, braised with onions, garlic and bacon. They were a tad greasy, but I didn't mind too much! Special bonus for having one of my favorite beers on tap! The inside of restaurant was very clean and modern with ample inside seating and several tables outside along front window. Get there early if you want a patio table . Oh, I almost forgot, the bathrooms had gender pronoun signs outside which I found to be refreshing. I sat at the bar and was greeted warmly and promptly. The bartender was very nice and my order was dropped, nice and hot in no time! To sum it up, I can't think of anything else the restaurant or staff could have done to make this first visit any better. I left very satisfied and for that, a five star rating is definitely warranted. Get yourself down to this family friendly spot in Webster Groves!

The classic look of The Parkmoor on Yelp has caught my eye more than a few times as it keeps popping up on Collections of burger joints and lunch spots in the Lou. My former coworker, Lucas, and I like to periodically catch up over lunch. We usually have to meet in Webster Groves as it is kind of the middle point between his new office and my (home) office. The Parkmoor's bold presence on the web definitely sets it apart from other lunch spots and caught our interest for one of our lunchtime pow-wows. Finding the The Parkmoor is super simple. It's located on the bustling business district portion of Lockwood. I easily found on street parking, but had to dodge a few cars going a tad too fast for such a pedestrian heavy locale. The retro interior of The Parkmoor is so engaging. Bold colors. Strong lines. And a subtle sports theme. The restaurant had a vibrant energy that lent itself to a jovial meeting with Lucas! Additionally, our waitress was such a gem. She was polite and not pushy. Definitely added to the feel-good vibes of The Parkmoor. I will be the first to admit that I'm not the biggest burger person. They're fine. I just never get excited about them. EEEEEEESpecially when they're served on brioche. Ok. So I hate brioche buns. It is objectively the actual worst bread out there. Dryer than saltines. For YEARS I've voiced my displeasure with restaurants touting this garbage excuse of a carb as a high end bread. It's trash. stop using it everywhere. Please. I was a bit bummed that the menu at The Parkmoor didn't clearly identify the bun as brioche, but simply a buttered bun. Had I known I would have ordered something else. But I made it work. Slather enough ketchup on a brioche bun and it'll pass. The actual flavors of my mushroom swiss burger were really good. The mushrooms were tender and added a little extra heft to the smash patties. Since this lunch was pre-2022 and I wasn't really paying attention to what I was eating, I started the meal with a bowl of their gumbo. The bowl was massive and definitely enough for a meal! I appreciated the selection of hot sauces The Parkmoor offered. I would absolutely get the gumbo again. Excited to visit The Parkmoor again during the summer to try one of their New Orleans style sno cones. The photos make them look like the perfect summer treat. Especially because you can add a little booze to them to get your night started.

When this place first moved into Webster Groves it was reasonable priced. Now it's not the place to go. Over $50.00 for 2 burger and one frie. Burgers not that great. This was at that drive up which did not include their requested tip. Tired of restaurant requiring and requesting tips before you receive your food. We haven't been back and won't ever go back

Just had dinner at The Parkmoor Drive-In on Lockwood and it was awesome! Great service, safe and healthy behavior, and excellent food from a new local restaurant. They said they have breakfast starting at 9 on the weekends, open til 9 during the week. The snowballs are great too! Support Local! Started with the cheese fries -- so good! Fried bologna sandwich was great. Also got the little burger, great!! Finished off with a snoball - the dream-sickle cream was great. Awesome service from Katie, our server. We will be back soon!!!

Late night eats in Webster groves. The chicken and waffles dish was really good. The breading on chicken was fabulous. The bbq sauce it came with was pretty unique. Really enjoyed the salad here could have used a bit more meat tho.

First time here. Beautiful day. They have limited outdoor seating. We tried a variety between breakfast and lunch. I had traditional eggs Benedict. It's was very good. $13. Didn't come with hash browns, but was filling w/o it. The French Toast was good but overpriced. The Swiss burger and Crispy Chicken sandwiches were also good. The potato chips were homemade and crunchy, but beware they have a Cajun seasoning on them. The French Fries were ordinary. Overall it was basic/okay. I would return to try a milkshake or snowcone.

Ok food, It served the purpose . Not a large menu. Also not much atmosphere. Parking is difficult I wouldn't avoid it, but both my husband and I forgot we had previously been here. Not memorable

Must say walking into the Parkmoor In Webster Groves was like a blast from the past. The interior and the menu are reminiscent of the original Parkmoor at Clayton & Big Bend. Great service from Kelsey, and our lunch was served with lightning speed. The footlong hot dog with bacon and cheese on a grilled bun was so yummy with half leftover to take home. The house made chips were fresh & crisp with a BBQ flavor. My sweetheart loved the burger and onion rings. I also sampled the onion rings, very good and definitely sweet vidalia. The pie looked tempting, but we were to full to indulge in dessert. They don't open until 11. I'm hoping they expand hours to make breakfast available.

The service was very good, the seats are not very comfortable but the atmosphere is nice and quiet. Spouse had the chicken and waffles which was good, I had their black and blue burger which supposedly was their specialty. It was terrible. Way too over seasoned as was their house made chips. Decent selection of beers, wines, and drinks.

This place has gone down hill recently. I used to really like the burgers but the most recent visit was best described as disappointing. The buns have changed and are too soft...just seem like they are from the grocery store. The burgers are smash burgers but they don't have that carmalization that makes a smash burger really good. The patties instead were falling apart and seemed more steamed than seared. The onion rings were overdone or had been sitting under a heat lamp too long. The wings are still amazing. I love the wing sauce.

This place turned out to be so different from what I expected based on the online photos and website and I'm so happy. Decor... this place is fun! Bright colors, open space and a scoreboard on the wall. Mason was my assigned staff member and he was very friendly, attentive and helpful. I was stuck between the King Burger, Crispy Chick and Shrimp Po'boy. Even though he recommended the Po'Boy, I went with the Crispy Chick add bacon, Swiss, lettuce and tomato w/fries, Wedge Salad to start. Huge salad with ample toppings, fresh and very tasty. They've got great ranch dressing, not heavy on the mayo side. Chicken Sandwich was amazing! This is what I call a freshly hand breaded chicken sandwich! The crust was seasoned well and not too thick. Now, this place serves Snowcones and Adult Snowcones along with Pies, but I didn't have any room for dessert... next time though!

Extremely average. I came here yesterday for Burger Week. The place was clean, pretty full, and really loud and rowdy. Noise just bounces from the floor to the ceiling, to the wooden tables/chairs/booths. I couldn't hear myself talking to my sister on the phone, who also said "where are you because it's really loud?" To give a quick rundown of the food and my cocktail: the bourbon cocktail I had was excellent! The burger was trying to be on the same level of Shake Shack and doesn't compare. It was bland and basic. Read my experience below for more details on that. The fries are essentially McDonalds fries. Would you pay $13.75 to get McDonalds fries and a lesser version of Shake Shack burger? The service was fair but friendly. My waitress suggested that I go with one of their regular menu burgers instead of the $6 Burger Week burger because she said it's really small. I was starving so I agreed. I ordered the King Burger with fries and a bourbon cocktail (the one with mint, simple syrup, and lemon juice, sorry I can't remember the name). I got my food really fast, like rocket speed, but it was missing onions which was noted on the menu and my waitress directly told me that "raw onions" come on the burger. I looked throughout my burger and found no onions. I flagged my waitress and told her. She apologized and said she'd go get some, and confirmed if I wanted raw or grilled onions. I replied that I wanted raw. She turns to walk away and 10 seconds later turns back saying that she thinks she sees them on the bottom of my burger. Honey, I've looked and there are none. She stood there and basically had me dissect my double patty burger, ripping the patties apart tearing the cheese up all to show her YET AGAIN, THAT THERE ARE NO ONIONS ON THE BURGER. She then walked away to go get them. Why did she come back less than a minute later with grilled onions saying "I brought you grilled onions because they taste better." Ma'am, I asked for raw. I accepted the grilled, which legit tasted like White Castle onions. They did absolutely nothing for the burger, and I think the raw, as designated on the menu for this burger would have been a much better choice, which was my choice in fact, but I did not complain. By this point, I was ready to go. They offer basic desserts including snowballs and ice cream, but my experience and the loud noise kept me from wanting to endure this experience any longer. The cocktail is the only redeeming value of my experience as it was exceptionally good, but everything else was subpar from other dining experiences in the near vicinity or greater metro area. This place seems to be confused on what it's trying to be. It has the appearance of a family friendly restaurant with its bright colors and cheerful demeanor, but with a bar, and with loud ambiance. It kind of seems like it's trying to be a kid-friendly sports bar and grill, which you can just do Applebee's, Buffalo Wild Wings, etc. for that. It's too much and not enough at the same time.

Fun place to try. I didn't feel the items we ordered were anything to write home about. Shaved ice was delicious!

We stopped in for St Louis Burger week. We each got the burger and fries and onion rings. Everything was really good. The burgers were fresh and had all the necessary add ins. The fries were crispy. Some in our party got the grilled cheese and the really enjoyed that. We tried the Sno-balls. Something fun to end the meal. Great experience. We never went to the old Parkmoor, so we can't compare, but this version is really good.
