We had my companies party at Dogwood Social House in Ellisville last night. We had a blast! Food and drinks were delicious! We all tried the VR experience!! And axe throwing!! The kids all ran around and played all the games with the game cards. And our server was THE best!! Highly recommend for your next party!

We had our end of the hockey season team party for a bunch of 10 year olds and parents… we were able to use a side room to have coaches speeches which was great. The kids played arcade games. The food is always great quality bar food here. The self pour beer taps are great for the parents. Julia was our server and she was pulled from the bar to serve our large group on a Saturday during a busy time (Mizzou basketball game). She was incredible and was able to follow our party with the service to our side room and our table in the main restaurant area. Please give Julia credit for completely going above and beyond on a busy Saturday afternoon. She is a gem in the service industry and deserves all the praise for it. Thank you Julia!

Drinks and food were good. Huge TV wall and lots of places to sit. Half price beer wall during happy hour but no discounts on food. Interior could use refurbishment and not very clean.

We made reservations for our End of Season team party at the Ellisville location. We had the pleasure of having Toni and Mia (The Italian duo) as our waitress and bartender. They were fantastic. Super upbeat and receptive to our needs. Orders came out fast – way to go kitchen staff!!!!! Because we have kids getting food asap is super important and they got it accomplished! Drinks were yummy. Overall atmosphere was fantastic!!! Positive vibes all around!! Thank you for your service and making our day fun!!! All families that attended today’s lunch stayed they will be back again…. Especially for extreme bingo!!!!!

Dogwood Social took care of our group. I had a Christmas party for 50 members of my bicycle riding group. They upgraded us to the private room which kept the noise down to hand out awards. Everyone was delighted for the privacy. The food and drinks were great.

Took us a very LONG time for some members of our party to get their food. AND that ONLY happened after one of us spoke w/a man clearing tables. We has 12 in our party & we seated next to another large party & we shared the SAME server. Her cup runneth over! Apparently some of our food went to the other table & they accepted it-when their food came to ours we declined it! Each table SHOULD have been assigned its own server. She was so overwhelmed that she couldn’t keep up with checking in for drink refills. Salads ordered a certain way came out the wrong way. My husband and I ordered a pretzel first-then a pizza. We received the pizza and had to request out pretzel half way through the pizza when we finally saw our server again. She did have time to talk w/other servers, though.
The food was good, but I’ve heard the Dogwood Social in Ellisville is better. Doubt we’ll be back to the one in O’Fallon.
BTW, this was out first time there-I made the reservations online-when I found out that we’d have an additional adult attending, I called 2 days before our arrival. The woman who answered was rude to say the least telling me she would “change our reservation THIS time ONLY & next time I needed to have an accurate count before making the reservation.” No worries now!

We made reservations for a large party of 25, a volleyball team that was in the area for a tournament. It took 30 mins to get seated, spoke with 3 different employees and no one seemed to communicate to each other. After waiting 30 mins for our seat, we didn’t have anyone come take our drink orders or food orders for another 20 mins. I went to the bar area to ask for help and still waited an additional 15 mins after that. Finally a server came over and apologized that she wasn’t told that she had our area. We never received the cocktails from the bar we ordered and half of the soda for our girls didn’t arrive. Our food arrived and the guy who brought the food just told us to help ourselves to the soda area for the servers. I went to the bar to tell the bar tender that we never got our cocktails and he seemed to not even care, his response was “I can do it when I have time” then proceeded to talk to other servers just standing around. I finally asked the guy who was bringing our food that we ordered drinks from the bar and after I was almost done with our dinner they arrived. I don’t understand why it was so difficult to have decent service at this establishment, the employees seemed not to care at all. I normally tip well when out to eat with a big group so they lost out.

The food was great and it was a great space to have a 50th birthday party. My only complaint would be that when we got there at 7:30, they were playing very explicit rap music with young kids still running around. As a parent (who luckily left her kids at home), I would not want that playing in the background at dinner.

Had my daughter’s 21st birthday party of over 50 people,. Toni was absolutely amazing , she worked so very hard and made sure we were well taken care of. We had more people then I had originally planned and we were given 2 servers.Brad should also be commended for the amazing job. I will highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for a great venue for all ages, for the atmosphere, the customer service and amazing experience we had from the start.
