Reviews for Polite Society Restaurant and Bar in St. Louis, MO
Had a great brunch experience here! Everyone in my party enjoyed their food. I ordered a pretty basic Belgian waffle but did... sample around the table and the Chorizo Avocado Benedict and Brunch Monster (pictured) were both delicious. Unlimited mimosaswere def a factor in picking this place, and they DID not disappoint. Although there is a hour and thirty minute limit, theypour a great mix that isn't too heavy on the OJ????. Food and mimosas were on point and the atmosphere was cute and quaint. Iwould definitely visit again if I am in St. Louis and recommend anyone to give it a try if looking for a brunch spot withunlimited mimosas!???? Read more
So DISAPPOINTING! The food is BLAND, with a capital B. I had cheesy grits and shrimp. It had no taste outside the shrimp... itself. The grits were flavorless to the point it was disgusting. The avocado toast was completely watery and tasteless. Imake better avocado toast at home with mozzarella tomatoes and balsamic. Their version of the toast was gross. Their eggsBenedict was little to be desired. I had been want to try this place for months. This is just sad. The bloody Mary?s weredisgusting, both types tasted the same. Worst cocktail I have ever had. At least I tried and conquered, definitely not aregular spot. Read more
First time at Polite Society for brunch and it did not disappoint! Chicken & waffles were the absolute best I've ever tasted &... the cherry on tip was the Thai chili maple syrup, OMG! Shrimp & grits were spectacular and I'm not a fan of grits in general, but these were lucky the bowl clean delicious!! I've also gone fur Dinner and the spinach dip was soon good, as well as awonderful burger, so delicious. My cocktail, the Michigander, was a joy to sip. If you like bourbon, don't sleep on that one!

In the heart of Lafayette Square, lies this gem. Built in one of the historic row homes, the restaurant has 2 floors. The... service was excellent and the food/drinks were top tier. With it being our first time, we tried several items on themenu...devil eggs, shrimp and grits, steak, udon noodles, duck, etc... The vibe is very chill, easy to have conversation, andthe lighting is low...almost intimate-like. It's perfect for a date night. I'd recommend checking them out. Unfortunately, Ican't give 5 stars due to a hair being found in the food. They apologized perfusely and made it right for us. I'm sure it wasa one off, because everything else was perfect! Read more
We were visiting St. Louis on a business trip and we always like to find local eateries to enjoy when we travel. Polite Society... was an excellent experience!!! Reservations are recommended!! It's a cozy and intimate atmosphere, which does make it loud butit is cozy. The food was incredible, every crumb! You could tell the chef put a lot of heart and thought into his flavors andmenus. There were also gluten-free options on the menu, which was one of our reasons for choosing them. The staff was friendlyand welcoming. We highly recommend dinner at Polite Society! Read more
An absolutely AMAZING experience! This was my first time at Polite Society but definitely not the last! The staff was so... attentive and friendly! The menu (which is seasonal by the way;a MAJOR plus for me) had a nice range of appetisers,drinks andentrees that I think most people would find pleasing! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming,but still a little upscale.Everything we had was cooked perfectly,and plated beautifully! I can't wait to go back! Read more
We are so full and so happy! The food was amazing. Everything looked good so my husband and I got 4 appetizers, drinks, and... dessert. I don't have anything negative to say, because the dining experience overall was great. Eric the waiter wasprofessional, the ambience was classy, the tables were socially distanced, and we loved how accommodating everyone was. Weintend to return. Read more
First time at this establishment! Classic Eggs Benedict was perfect and the cook did not get anything wrong! Good vibes this... morning. Wait staff perfectly behaved and Lisa R. was friendly pleasant and accommodating. Service was prompt and professional.Not too rushed as I was there just after they opened for brunch (9 am Sundays). I am certain that this establishment gets verybusy! I will have to rate them during such time that I return either by myself or with company. I will definitely return! Read more
