This is the second time we've been to Truffles. The first time was over 20 years ago and it was not pleasant due to some rude staff. A polar opposite this time around. What a wonderful experience!! One of the best steaks I've ever had...and it's not even a steakhouse! Great char on the steak....sides were wonderful and the staff was top notch. It was very loud, as it was completely full...and the tables are very closer together. Just an FYI for some diners. Will definitely return to Truffles!!

Our server was very knowledgeable and passionate about the menu and presented us with the evening's appetizers on a chalkboard which we thought was quaint. The service was very thorough and professional. Our party of 4 ended up getting 2 appetizers: Lobster Turnovers and Veal Dumplings. The turnovers were wonderfully flaky and filled with something that reminded us of what a perfect crab rangoon would be. The veal dumplings were decadent; a good mixture of unctuous veal and pork with a sweet sauce and salsa to balance it out. Two of my colleagues ordered the salmon entree with the salad and they both enjoyed this dish. The third colleague almost ordered salmon but decided to change to the filet au poivre to do something new. For myself, I ordered the american wagyu coulotte with the ricotta, duck, maitake, soubise ravioli. The steak was perfectly cooked to my liking and that perfect mix of tender and melt in your mouth. The ravioli was also presented very well and each bite was tender with a great balance between skin and filling. Having moved away from St Louis 5 years ago, I really wanted to come back to Sidney Street Cafe, and it did not disappoint. If you want a great ambience to share an amazing meal with friends, Sidney Street Cafe has my wholehearted endorsement.

We had a party of eight and requested to sit on the patio. They were very accommodating, the patio is lovely, our server Maggie didn't a fantastic job and you can't beat the Pick-A-Pair lunch menu!

This was our first time at The Clover and the Bee, and it was wonderful! The atmosphere is so charming and the food and service did not disappoint! We will definitely be back. It was lively, but not too noisy. Next time, I will get a table on the patio.

I love the Mariposa room. I have celebrated so many happy occasions there. I had a special birthday party there, given showers and attended other events there. Buffy, one of the wait staff, and Neil are wonderful and attentive. I have been taking my special nieces there for lunch since they were young. We love the soup and popovers too. It always feels special to dine there.
